In the gallery above, our editors have selected the most interesting TV shows (including TV movies and specials) debuting this month, listed in order by premiere date.
Series debuts October 16 on Facebook Watch. Jessica Biel and Stanley Tucci star in Facebook Watch's series adaptation of the scripted fiction podcast of the same name. As in the podcast, the television series finds a public radio host (Biel) investigating the 15-year-old disappearance of over 300 people at a neuroscience research facility in Limetown, Tennessee. Critics saw the first two half-hour episodes a few weeks ago at TIFF and generally liked them, though they weren't blown away and think it might stick too closely to the audio version without introducing enough new elements to make the adaptation necessary.
