Autumn proceeds swiftly and does not slow down its pace, and those who love this season and want to take full advantage of all its vibes, even on television, will be glad to note the titles of these three TV Series that we consider ideal to catch up with during this time of year. The days grow shorter, the cold tightens its grip, and there’s nothing better than indulging in slower rhythms and a bit of wholesome couch relaxation with the remote in hand and a steaming cup of tea in the other. What we call comfort series are nothing more than cozy stories, accompanied by evocative landscapes that manage to relax us without too much effort. From forests painted red and orange to wooden porches, from cinnamon-scented mugs to the drizzle that frames the most important dialogues, here are three TV series to catch up on if you’re looking for titles perfect for autumn relaxation.
What to watch this fall on Netflix: the coziest TV series to unwind
Anne with an E
If you ask Netflix fans, they’ll tell you that Anne with an E should not have ended after its third season. The story is loosely adapted from the novel Anne of Green Gables by Lucy Maud Montgomery and launched the career of Amybeth McNulty, who portrayed the young Anne, an orphaned teenager entrusted to the older siblings Marilla and Matthew Cuthbert. Anne is a girl with a vivid imagination who ends up on Prince Edward Island at the Green Gables farm to begin a new chapter of her life. What makes this title a perfect seasonal companion is certainly the cinematography, which captures forests with leaf-covered trails, offers snacks and readings by the fireplace, and features family chats that help build a bond day after day.
Virgin River
One of the perfect series for this time of year is certainly Virgin River. Thanks to the breathtaking mountain location, this series ranks among Netflix’s long-running titles and currently consists of seven seasons, with an eighth already approved and coming soon. The story follows Mel Monroe, who leaves the city’s chaos to start anew in the tranquil Virgin River. Mel carries a heavy burden, but she manages to rediscover herself and the will to move forward, thanks in part to the support of the locals, building a new community and a new family. The cozy aesthetic of Virgin River is a strong point in itself, paired with a storytelling that doesn’t tire and that evolves from season to season, tracking Mel’s growth as a person, as a professional, and also in her relationships. Virgin River seems to be a safe harbor not only for the protagonist but also for viewers seeking a pause from modern chaos.
The Color of Magnolias
Stopped at the fifth season on Netflix, The Color of Magnolias tells a friendship-centered story set in the picturesque town of Serenity. Maddie must come to terms with her husband’s betrayal and, after the separation, is trying to pick up the pieces with the help of her dearest friends Dana Sue and Helen, with whom she also plans to open a spa. The atmosphere here works in its favor, as there is a clear sense of the need to slow down and surround oneself with people who do good for the heart. This series becomes a visual comfort for those seeking lightness, harmony, and autumn vibes.
