These 6 New TV Shows Are a Must-Watch This October
From the highly-anticipated adaptation of 'Lessons in Chemistry' to a coming-of-age series for 'Sex Education' fans.
The fourth quarter of the year is always the busiest, with calendars full of festivities making free time a foreign concept. Though leisure is a luxury come October, when you are blessed with some downtime, the last thing you want to do is waste it looking for something to watch.
Fear not! We’ve got you covered with plenty of new content for your corneas! Fresh from the UK, Korea, France, and the US, here are the best new TV show to stream this month.
1. Everything Now
Where can I watch it? Netflix
After bidding adieu to Sex Education last month, many of us have wondered how to fill the coming-of-age void it left in its wake. Netflix’s new UK-based series, Everything Now, promises to do just that. Witty, wayward, hysterical and heartfelt, the eight-episode series tackles the highs and lows of high school as 16-year-old Mia Polanco pashes and parties her way through her bucket list post-recovery from an eating disorder. Move over Moordale, and welcome Westmere.
2. Lessons in Chemistry

Finally, one of the most anticipated series of the year has arrived! Based on Bonnie Garmus’ best-selling novel of the same name, Brie Larson brings protagonist Elizabeth Zott to life on screen as a chemist turned cook who seeks to defy the patriarchy. Set in the 50s, the series shines a light on the oppressive gender roles of the time, when women were expected to stay home instead of seeking a fulfilling career. Fuelled by the early sparks of the feminist movement, Elizabeth gives a glorious middle finger to the establishment that tried forcing her into the laundry and away from the lab.
