As film studios start peppering theaters with their Oscar contenders, streaming services are delivering their own high season of online content. Netflix, for example, will be releasing two acclaimed features from the 75th Venice International Film Festival, Alfonso Cuarón’s Roma, winner of the prestigious Golden Lion Award, and the Coen Brothers’ The Ballad of Buster Scruggs, winner of the Golden Osella Award for Best Screenplay. But the bread and butter of online platforms is still found in the series format, and the “here and now and all the time” demand of streaming viewership means a bevy of new series each month.
Some old favorites will be coming back, such as a new season of House of Cards (sans Spacey) on Netflix and the return of Outlander on Starz. For viewers looking for something entirely fresh and unfamiliar on their screens, though, here are three much-anticipated shows premiering this November.
