18 TV Shows to Watch in October

Series debuts October 9 on Netflix. For its very first music competition series, Netflix is changing the usual formula a bit: It's all rapping, no singing. The hip-hop contest will enlist amateur MCs from around the country who will battle it out to impress judges Chance the Rapper, T.I., and Cardi B (though not necessarily in that order; obviously, Chance will occupy the third chair) and guests like Snoop Dogg, Big Boi, Killer Mike, Lupe Fiasco, Miguel, Hit-Boy, John Legend, Anderson .Paak, Nipsey Hussle, and more big names. Netflix will stream the episodes in three weekly batches, beginning October 9 with the four audition rounds.
