The 11 Biggest TV Premieres in November 2026
The Gilded Age Season 4 (HBO): Nov. 1

The day after Halloween is typically one to pack up the costumes for another year. But, on HBO, The Gilded Age will keep supplying us with beautiful gowns straight out of the 1880s. Season 4 of the period drama will see Bertha (Carrie Coon) reconciling with the unconventional choices she’s made, her position in society jeopardized. And Agnes (Christine Baranski) is not helping the cause, eager to find her way back into a position of power. One of the most heralded parts of The Gilded Age is its voluminous ensemble, as Marian (Louisa Jacobson), Peggy (Denée Benton), and Ada (Cynthia Nixon) all attempt to navigate an ever-changing world. And Season 4 aims to bring even more into the fold, including comedian Jim Gaffigan, Tony Award winner Bonnie Milligan, and Tony nominee Taylor Trensch.

The Greatest (Prime Video): Nov. 4

Ten years ago, we lost Muhammad Ali, arguably one of the most famous athletes to ever walk the planet, let alone enter the ring. Surprisingly, despite his legendary career, there’s never been a television series made about his incredibly eventful life. But Ben Watkins, the showrunner of Prime Video’s Cross, is taping up to take on such a feat. The Greatest tells the story of Cassius Clay as he works through bouts both in and out of gloves in his quest to become, indeed, the greatest. With a starmaking turn from Jaalen Best as Ali, the episodes will be sure to float like a butterfly, with enough emotional wallops to sting like a bee.

The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power Season 3 (Prime Video): Nov. 11
Amazon Studios
Almost a decade ago, in what seems like a completely different age of men, Amazon acquired the television rights for The Lord of the Rings properties from the estate of author J.R.R. Tolkien. In exchange, the company committed at least five seasons and $1 billion, making it far and away the most expensive TV show ever made. All that is to say, The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power isn’t reaching its conclusion anytime soon. But that’s not to say that we still can’t be excited for everything we’re about to see go down amongst the massive swath of characters and stories dotted across Middle-Earth.
Season 3 picks up five years after the last episode, as the Elves are caught up in a feverish war with the Dark Lord Sauron (Charlie Vickers), having created a safe haven to the north in Rivendell. Sauron’s focus, however, lies with the creation of a set of rings, and more specifically, one to rule them all. With the original Lord of the Rings films celebrating their 25th anniversary this year, there’s no better way to celebrate a birthday than with a new series of adventures from some familiar faces, including Gandalf, Galadriel, and Elrond.

The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives: Orange County (Hulu): Nov. 12

When The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives premiered, it didn’t take long for social media to give it the label of “The Real Housewives for Hulu.” And, much like we saw two decades ago on Bravo, the streamer is officially making its hit reality show a franchise with its very first spin-off. The new show follows a group of eight influencers in Southern California, including the sister of original Mormon Wives cast member Mayci Neely. And, while the show’s religious ties may not be as established (heck, at least a couple of them aren’t even Mormon!), it’s sure to possess the same brand of heated rivalries and petty drama we know and love. As the original cast begins to depart in lieu of opportunities outside of Utah, it’s the perfect time to fall in love (or love to hate) with a brand-new coastal cast!

The Good Daughter (Peacock): Nov. 12

We’re always a sucker for anything involving some powerhouse performances, a broken family, and a mystery to solve. Luckily, Karin Slaughter brought all three together in the TV adaptation of her novel The Good Daughter. Sisters Samantha (Rose Byrne) and Charlotte (Meghann Fahy) have spent 20 years trying to dissect one night of violence that forever changed their lives. But a blast from the past arrives in the most unexpected way, when another attack in their small town has Charlotte as the first witness on the scene. Over the course of the six-episode series, the siblings will essentially crack two mysteries at once, trying to uncover truth in the present while incidentally digging up bodies of the past — perhaps quite literally.

12 12 12 (Apple TV): Nov. 13
Courtesy of Apple
Between shows like Slow Horses, Hijack, and Invasion, Apple TV has become one of the best low-key hubs to go to for prestigious action dramas. And another one gets added to the proverbial team with the new heist show 12 12 12. The series drops us in three different periods, all around a bank robbery: The 12 months planning the job, the 12 hours it’s executed, and the 12 days the feds spend desperately searching for the perpetrators. Of course, any good criminal story has a perfect cat-and-mouse duo at its center, and 12 12 12 gives us just that with Anthony Mackie’s FBI agent doggedly pursuing Jamie Dornan’s slippery culprit. The biggest, and arguably the only, misgiving with the show: It isn’t premiering on Dec. 12 (or even at 12:12)! Regardless of its numbers-based faux pas, we can certainly count on another high-quality Apple show to chew over before its Christmas Day finale.

Yellowjackets Season 4 (Paramount+): Nov. 20
Courtesy of Paramount
In 1996, a high school girls’ soccer team had their travel plans to a national championship derailed when their plane crashed in the Canadian wilderness. In 2026, their story finally comes to an end. Yellowjackets was one of the buzziest shows when it debuted, using a Lost-like flashback structure to show how a select number of the girls survived the ordeal, and the weight they still carry from that experience to this day.
The fourth and final season attempts to bring the stories of Shauna (Melanie Lynskey), Taissa (Tawny Cypress) and Misty (Christina Ricci) to a close. In the past, rescue seems imminent, as reality begins to settle in and the girls attempt to both physically and emotionally bury their dirty deeds. While in the present, Shauna is attempting to reclaim the power she felt out in the wild, no matter what blood may be spilled to get it. Featuring appearances from Elijah Wood, Hilary Swank, June Squibb, and Molly Ringwald, we shall see if the stinger at the end of Yellowjackets comes with a definitive queen bee.

Percy Jackson and the Olympians Season 3 (Disney+): Nov. 20
Courtesy of Disney
Percy Jackson and the Olympians fans have been full-throated in their support of all things half-blood. The Disney+ YA series based on Rick Riordan’s novels has garnered a massive following online, as well as several Emmy wins to boot. And it’s no myth: Percy (Walker Scobell), Annabeth (Leah Sava Jeffries) and Grover (Aryan Simhadri) are back for a third bite of the golden apple, along with an entire entourage of gods, goddesses, titans and the like. Season 3, which will air two episodes weekly starting Nov. 20, is based on Riordan’s The Titan’s Curse, which has Percy and Grover linking up with a newly-awakened Thalia (Tamara Smart) to find a missing Annabeth, while joining the Hunters of Artemis to stop a looming threat to Olympus. And if you’re not looking at that previous sentence and thinking, “It’s all Greek to me,” feel free to catch up on the first two seasons before Percy Jackson takes over your timeline once more.

Dig (Peacock): Nov. 23

Over a decade ago, we bid farewell to Parks and Recreation, one of the greatest modern workplace comedies. But the relic partnership of Michael Schur and Amy Poehler has been unearthed like a precious fossil for their latest work in tandem: Dig. The new Peacock series, based on the hit novel of the same name by Kate Myers, focuses on four women from very different backgrounds (played by Poehler, Geraldine Viswanathan, Fina Strazza and Antonia Thomas) who all find themselves at the same excavation site in Greece. Their disparate fates are all united, however, when they discover an artifact that may change history, as the quartet faces an international conspiracy as well as the egotistical professor leading the dig (played by Hugh Laurie). Given the incredible pedigree of both Schur and Poehler — especially together — we’re happy the two are digging up the past to bring us another comedic collaboration.

Blade Runner 2099 (Prime Video): Nov. 25

Ever since Blade Runner hit theaters back in 1982, fans of the hit sci-fi movie have shed plenty of tears in the rain, waiting for more stories from the gritty, dystopian future. And while we were treated to just that with the sequel Blade Runner 2049 in 2017, Amazon is jumping 50 more years into the future and bringing the bots to the small screen. Blade Runner 2099 drops us in a time when the robotic Replicants have risen up, rendering humans second-class citizens. Olwen (Michelle Yeogh), a Replicant Blade Runner near the end of her life, is partnered with Cora (Hunter Schafer), who is actually a human masquerading as artificial intelligence, to take down a group of rebellious Replicants. Given the great talent involved, as well as support from Ridley Scott himself, the new Prime Video series has the perfect circuitry and wires to become your newest sci-fi obsession.

The Hunting Wives Season 2 (Netflix): Nov. 27

One of Netflix’s buzziest shows of 2025 took us out to East Texas and the dramatic, dangerous clique known as The Hunting Wives. Over the course of the first season, we watched Sophie (Brittany Snow) get introduced to and subsequently wrapped up in the web of socialite Margo (Malin Akerman), as the two become friends, co-conspirators — and lovers. Season 2 of the drama will pick up with the women keeping their distance, however, with Margo’s husband Jed (Dermot Mulroney) seeking political office. It’s not long, however, before they’re drawn back into each other’s orbit, as old secrets and new foes make them wonder if they may take a turn at being the hunted. Dropping all of its episodes on Thanksgiving Day, you can digest all the deep-fried turkey by binging another Southern guilty pleasure.
