What to watch on TV in November
We’ve rounded up the binge-worthy best from Amazon Prime Video, Apple TV+, CBC Gem, Crave and Disney+ in Canada for the next few weeks. (And, if that’s not enough, here’s our list of every new title coming to Netflix this month.)
New to Crave
The Flight Attendant
In this dark comedy series from the producers of You, Kaley Cuoco plays a flight attendant who wakes up in a hotel room next to a dead passenger. The series is based on a mystery novel of the same name by Chris Bohjalian and features Girls’s Zosia Mamet as the dubious best friend alongside Rosie Perez as a nosy co-worker. Although the flight attendant’s memory is foggy, she sets out to prove her innocence while evading the cops but is dragged into a dangerous criminal underworld instead. November 26
Moonbase 8
This comedy series from the people behind Moonlight and The Lighthouse, follows a group of incompetent but resolute astronauts—played by Fred Armisen, Tim Heidecker and John C. Reilly—vying for glory. Stationed at a remote moon simulator in the Arizona dessert, the astronauts hope to redeem their inadequacy by successfully claiming a spot in NASA’s next lunar mission. November 8

Marvel’s 616
This anthology documentary series is an inside look behind the scenes at Marvel HQ (“616” is geekspeak for the O.G. Marvel universe).

Noughts + Crosses
This BBC drama series takes place in an alternate universe where African nations colonized Europe 700 years ago. In present-day London, segregation is enforced between those of African descent (the Crosses) and poorer native Europeans (the Noughts). Based on YA novels by British author Malorie Blackman, the series follows a star-crossed romance between the daughter of a Cross politician and a newbie Nought army cadet against a background of racial tension and unrest. November 27
