November is kicking off with a bang, bringing something for everyone among the new TV shows premiering on Netflix, Apple TV and other streaming services, as well as cable and broadcast channels.
It’s a big week for top-shelf creators. Vince Gilligan reunites with “Better Call Saul” star Rhea Seehorn for the eerie sci-fi series “Pluribus,” while Ryan Murphy unveils a new legal drama, “All’s Fair,” with Kim Kardashian, Sarah Paulson, Naomi Watts and Niecy Nash.
‘All’s Fair’ (Hulu)
Ryan Murphy swaps haunted houses for high heels in this glossy, high-stakes legal drama where love and war are basically the same thing. Kim Kardashian stars as Allura Grant, a powerhouse divorce attorney who, alongside Naomi Watts, Niecy Nash-Betts, Teyana Taylor, Sarah Paulson and Glenn Close, breaks from their male-dominated firm to hang up their own shingle.
Between high-stakes divorces, shifting alliances and secrets that won’t stay buried, the firm’s biggest battles aren’t always in court. Armored in designer suits and stilettos, these lawyers are ready to turn heartbreak into opportunity.
Episodes 1-3 premiere Tuesday, Nov. 4 at 12 a.m. ET on Hulu
‘All Her Fault’ (Peacock)
“Succession” alum Sarah Snook swaps power suits for panic in this new mystery thriller miniseries. She stars as Marissa Irvine, a mom whose day unravels when she arrives to pick up her son from a playdate, only to find a stranger at the door who swears she’s never heard of him.
What follows is a nightmare of suspicion, secrets and too many people with something to hide. Created by Megan Gallagher (“Suspicion”) and based on Andrea Mara’s bestselling novel, it’s a gripping look at how fast a quiet suburban life can come undone.
Episodes 1-4 premiere Thursday, Nov. 6 at 3 a.m. ET on Peacock
‘Death by Lightning’ (Netflix)
This limited series brings one of history’s strangest true stories to the screen. Michael Shannon stars as James Garfield, the president whose life ended in shocking tragedy at the hands of admirer-turned-assassin Charles Guiteau (Matthew Macfadyen).
From creator Mike Makowsky (“Bad Education”) and executive producers David Benioff and D.B. Weiss (“Game of Thrones”), the series also features Nick Offerman, Betty Gilpin and Bradley Whitford. It mixes ambition, political intrigue and heartbreak in a way that reminds us that even 1881 America could be as ruthless and fascinating as today.
All 4 episodes premiere Thursday, Nov. 6 at 3 a.m. ET on Netflix
‘Pluribus’ (Apple TV)
Vince Gilligan reunites with “Better Call Saul” alum Rhea Seehorn for a high-concept sci-fi drama where the world’s unhappiest author suddenly finds herself surrounded by universal bliss. Living in Albuquerque, Carol Sturka (Seehorn) must navigate a planet where joy is mandatory and conflict extinct … and she’s the lone misanthrope on Earth.
Part philosophical inquiry, part sociopolitical satire, “Pluribus” asks what happens when utopia arrives and one stubborn soul refuses to conform. Expect Gilligan’s trademark biting wit and twisty plotting in a show that’s as thought-provoking as it is strange.
Episodes 1-2 premiere Friday, Nov. 7 at 12 a.m. ET on Apple TV
‘Maxton Hall: The World Between Us’ season 2 (Prime Video)
School’s back in session, and so is the drama. The German-language romantic drama returns, picking up right where the first season left off. Ruby (Harriet Herbig-Matten) is still reeling from a life-changing night in Oxford, and James (Damian Hardung) is doing everything he can to win her back.
At Maxton Hall, nothing is simple or safe. Secrets threaten to unravel the carefully built lives of the students, while unexpected alliances and romantic sparks keep everyone on edge.
Episodes 1-3 premiere Friday, Nov. 7 at 3 a.m. ET on Prime Video
‘Stumble’ (NBC)
Joining the long line of NBC mockumentary comedies like “The Office” and “Parks and Recreation,” “Stumble” chronicles the hilariously cutthroat world of junior college cheer. If you ever saw the intense docuseries “Cheer,” coach Monica Aldama is an executive producer on this new series.
Jenn Lyon stars as Courteney Potter, a once-top coach whose viral mishap cost her a championship and her job, forcing her to start fresh with a ragtag squad of misfits. Taran Killam plays her well-meaning husband, Boone, while Kristin Chenoweth drops in now and then to add recurring flair.
Episode 1 premieres Friday, Nov. 7 at 8:30 p.m. ET on NBC (via Sling, Fubo or YouTube TV) and next day via Peacock
