These are the 7 new shows and movies I’m watching in November.

I’m lucky to live alone, which means that if I only want to watch Gray’s Anatomy reps, I absolutely can. I’m just a few clicks away Gone (again) and my favorite horror films are in a constant review cycle.

But as a comfort-loving person, it also means I’m extremely picky about checking out new things. The benefit of living with housemates or significant others is that they usually have something to say if you fill the TV with vintage films. Made in Chelsea every night. So this year I made a conscious effort to break out of my TV rut, and it led to some pretty great finds. Thanks to early tips from industry insiders, I record what’s happening and pick out the highlights.
