Beyond Binge Watching: Make Your Perfect TV Line-Up

November 01, 2017

Outgrown binge watching, but also hate wasting time searching aimlessly through titles, wondering what to watch next? We’re here to help you plan your own personalized fall line-up! We paired some of our favorite series — new and old, American and International, broadcast and premium — to help craft your go-to viewing line-up for the months to come.

Every show listed is easy to watch online, via TV Everywhere or on Cox On Demand. We have a line-up for every day and every mood. Never again ask, “what’s on next?”

Line-up 1: High-Quality Family Time

This trifecta will keep you laughing and crying with three of television’s most famous families — each made in their own special way.

Black-ish (ABC)

Will and Grace (NBC)

This is Us (NBC)

Line-up 2: Screwball, with a Twist

Emotional, hilarious, outrageous: this combo is perfect for a night of zany fun with a heart. These takes on the modern ‘screwball comedy’ push their characters to delve deep and partake in high-stakes shenanigans worthy of their raucous forebearers.

You’re the Worst (FX)

Younger (TV Land)

Girlfriend’s Guide to Divorce (Bravo)

Line-up 3: The Female Gaze

Shake-up your genres with three incredible shows that place women front and center. Claire, Alicia and Sam B. may be separated by time (and fiction!) but you can’t help but think they are pop culture kindred spirits.

Outlander (Starz)

The Good Wife (CBS)

Full Frontal with Samantha Bee (TBS)

Line-up 4: Learning Annex

Expand your world view with a line-up of Emmy-Award winning programs which take you inside the worlds of sports, international planning and current events like no other series on television.

30 for 30 (ESPN)

Years of Living Dangerously (Nat Geo)

Line-up 5: Coastal Comedy

New York City & Portland serve as rich territory for these irreverent shows, but at the heart are no-holds-barred comedians exploring the funniest parts of being lost.

Search Party (TBS)

Portlandia (IFC)

Broad City (Comedy Central)

Line-up 6: The Odd-Duck

The men at the helm of these shows provide a compelling through-line: the unconventional TV hero. Once you start watching, you can’t get enough of these unexpected and complex characters.

Detectorists (On Demand)

Louie (FX)

Manhunt (Discovery Channel)

Line-up 7: Parent & Teen Approved

In some ways, these shows combined are “Quantum Leap” for the millennium. Saving the world, leaping into the unknown and being part of something bigger than one’s self – powerful themes for a solid night of viewing, especially if you are searching for just the right show to watch with your teen.

Timeless (NBC)

Kevin Saves the World (ABC)

Line-up 8: The Unexpected Turn

Two domestic comedies and an irreverent detective dramedy underscore the maxim that the most interesting things happen when life doesn’t turn out as you planned.

Playing House (USA Network)

The Mick (Fox)

Terriers (FX)

Line-up 9: O! M! G!

Sometimes, the bigger shock, the better — and you can be guaranteed that each episode in this line-up will have you gasping in disbelief and, most likely, shouting at your TV! (Go ahead, we won’t tell.)

Empire (Fox)

Scandal (ABC)

Grey’s Anatomy (ABC)

Line-up 10: Modern Laugh

Quick, witty, diverse — this line-up is not only fun and funny, but each show plays with its well-established genre, ultimately re-shaping the contemporary comedy landscape.

Superstore (NBC)

Atlanta (FX)

Better Things (FX)

Last Week Tonight (HBO)

Line-up 11: It’ll All be OK

The Great British Bake-off (PBS)

Jane the Virgin (FOX)

Golden Girls (Hallmark)
