7 Cozy Shows With Autumn Vibes to Watch in September 2023
How about some comforting, feel-good shows?
Why is it that as soon as September 1 arrives, the ambiance seems to change drastically? You instantly crave a hot, spicy drink, yearn to snuggle under a soft blanket, and immerse yourself in a cozy, fictional universe, whether it's a book or a favorite TV show.
If you lack a go-to series for this time of year, here are some suggestions.
Gilmore Girls (2000-2007)
We acknowledge that Gilmore Girls appears on nearly every fall watch list, but what can we do? It is the quintessential fall show. The main characters quickly become your friends, and the town of Stars Hollow morphs into a character of its own, becoming the ultimate escape destination.
Over the Garden Wall (2014)
This animated masterpiece is a must-see due to its exquisite design, compelling story, delightful characters - two brothers lost in a mysterious land - and, of course, the show offers a perfect blend of fall vibes and seasonally appropriate spookiness.
Felicity (1998-2002)
J. J. Abrams and Matt Reeves' drama about a university freshman seems to have everything you need for a fall binge-watch - a new school year, warm vibes, and an abundance of sweaters.
Hilda (2018-2020)
Another animated show on our list, this one is based on graphic novels by Luke Pearson and chronicles the adventures of a blue-haired girl, her mother, and a deer fox. The series draws heavily on Norwegian mythology and is a captivating watch.
Anne with an E (2017-2019)
The tale of a resourceful, bright, spirited, and talkative orphan set on a 19th-century Canadian farm will have you falling in love with everything about it, from the quirky characters to the cottage-core autumn ambiance.
Fawlty Towers (1975-1979)
If fall incites nostalgia and a yearning for vintage, well-crafted projects, give Fawlty Towers a try. This classic British sitcom, set in a fictional hotel in an English seaside town, is still regarded as comedy gold. Additionally, the story about the hotel owner, his family, and the staff offers the cozy feel we long for in the fall.
Chesapeake Shores (2016-2022)
Fall and winter are the prime seasons for Hallmark, so we had to include at least one Hallmark Channel show. Chesapeake Shores follows a big city woman who returns to her hometown to help renovate her family's inn and start her life afresh. Does it sound like a feel-good watch? That's because it is.
