Although we're sad to see summer go (bye sunshine, vacations, and Bachelor in Paradise), we can't wait for all the autumn activities we're about to partake in, like going back to school, watching the leaves change, and most importantly, diving into the fall TV schedule. Let's be honest, couch = happy place.

We can't wait for our favorite returning programs to make a comeback (This is Us, Stranger Things, and Curb Your Enthusiasm to name a few), we're even more excited for the new shows to roll out. We've sifted through the newbies to bring you a list of the very best ones to add to your queue.
