It's official: the clocks have gone back, the nights are longer, and the temperature has plummeted. Friday nights have gone from pub garden evenings to sheltering under a duvet in what feels like a matter of minutes. But honestly? We’re not mad about it. The return of hibernation season means the following: scented candles, fluffy socks, red wine, and of course, guilt-free screen time.
So, as we retreat indoors with our hot water bottles, endless snacks, and zero social plans, the H! Fashion team is sharing the shows currently lighting up our screens. From heartwarming dramas to reality TV comfort watches, here are the shows we can’t stop watching this November: with the hot take to match.
Dating Naked - Paramount +
Clare Pennington, Editor:
"I'm currently in the middle of season two of Dating Naked with Rylan. It's slightly...horrifying? But I can't stop watching it.
Hot take: "My hot take is that no one needs to be naked while they're dating. No one needs to have their clothes off at all. I never ever need to see a man sit naked with his legs open, talking to a camera. It's horrifying but yet I'm watching it every single night."
Sullivan's Crossing - Netflix

"I think the team would agree that this is such a me show - at the moment I'm obsessed with Sullivan's Crossing. I don't know how long it's been on Netflix (there are three seasons), but I don't know how I've missed it. The main thing to know is that it stars One Tree Hill heartthrob Chad Michael Murray, who is ageing like a fine wine. It's a really cosy, wholesome watch set in Nova Scotia in Canada, about a woman who reconnects with her father after a string of life-altering events."
Hot take: "Chad Michael Murray is in it, what else do you need to know? Watch the show."
House MD - Amazon Prime

"I'm rewatching House for the eighth time because it's such an easy watch. I love putting it on in the background. The main character, Gregory House, is basically the Sherlock Holmes of the medical world, and he basically solves really complex medical cases. But he has a lot of issues in his personal life and isn't afraid of breaking the rules, it's such a good one."
Hot take: "My hot take, and probably some advice I should take on myself, is that all of the scenarios that happen in each episode will never happen to me. I do not need more fear about a disease that doesn't exist."
Love Is Blind - Netflix
Elizabeth Aminoff, Social Media Editor
"I've recently been binging Love Is Blind. Anybody else who's watching it will know the emotions you go through watching this show. I've been an avid viewer for years, but this season is crazy."
Hot take: "I think the guys this year need to be sat down and given a talking to - the girls can do a lot better!"

Aaliyah Harry, Beauty Writer
"I watched Building the Band on Netflix. It's giving X Factor, it's giving Britain's Got Talent, but possibly better (sorry). Nicole Scherzinger and Liam Payne (which is quite emotional) are on the judging panel."
Hot take: "There was a girl on there called Allison who wasn't very nice to the other girls, Hailey and Elise, and it was a big scandal. So I feel like the other girls in the band need a little bit of redemption."
Celebrity Traitors - BBC One
Molly Saunders, Design Lead
"Two words: Celebrity Traitors"
Hot Take: "My hot take is that it's so much better than the usual Traitors because they're already famous. They don't care about getting loads of Instagram followers when they're done with the show, etc. So I think it's better than watching people trying to get fame. It's just better TV - so much more fun."
