"Romanovs" (The Romanoffs). Since October, 12th on Amazon Video
In this mini-series (the first season has only eight episodes) is told about people who consider themselves descendants of the Russian imperial family. At the same time, the plot of the series has nothing to do with real historical events. Director Matthew Wayner ("Mad Men", "Orange - hit the season") has repeatedly noted that the "Romanovs" - not an attempt to film the history of Russia, but only an opportunity to explore the connection of people with their ancestors.
By the way, this is the first after the "Madmen" television project Wayner in collaboration with Amazon. Shooting took place in seven countries, including France, the United States and Mexico. In the cast cast, in addition to Isabelle Huppert and Amanda Pete, Aaron Eckhart, Jack Huston, and Russian Evgenia Brick, appear.
"Charmed". On October 14 at The CW
Feminist remake of the cult series of the 1990s will tell the story of three sisters-witches fighting with endless evil and its manifestations. This time, the action is transferred from San Francisco to the fictional city of Hilltown. The mother of the witch sisters perishes under mysterious circumstances, and the girls will have to solve the murder on their own.
Fans of the canonical series with Alyssa Milano, Shannen Doherty and Holly Marie Combs will not easily accept that there is no textbook triad in the restart: there are only two sisters at home, although the "Power of Three" will be established after the appearance of a joint third sister (in her person the authors of the project united Prue and Page). In addition, the creators of Charmed decided to make the protagonists of Latin America.
"Chilling Adventures of Sabrina". From October 26 to Netflix
"Enchanted" is not the only youth series of the 1990s that will return to the screens this fall. On Netflix in October, a new version of the teenage sitcom "Sabrina - a Little Witch" will be shown. As promised, severe and frightening. The concept of the updated Sabrina is based on the same comic book Chilling Adventures of Sabrina.

The main role in the project is played by actress Kiernan Shipka ("Madmen"), Aunt Zelda and Hilda Spellman will play Miranda Otto ("The Lord of the Rings") and Lucy Davis ("Wonder Woman"). Will not do on the show without the talking cat Salem.
"Titans" (Titans). From October 12 to DC Universe
Superheroic epic "Titans", shot based on the comic books of the DC universe, predictably starts at the DC Universe. According to the idea of the creators of the comics, "Titans" should become a kind of junior version of the "League of Justice", headed by Dick Grayson (also known as Nightwing and Robin). Among the members of the team there are also such unusual inhabitants of Gotham as Kid Flash (partner and assistant Flash) and Akvalid (Akvamen's assistant). However, in the television version of the original characters were only Robin and Starfair. According to the story, Nightwing combines with the Bist-fight, Starfair and Raven, to confront the demon Trigon.
The ideological inspirers of the superhero film-making became the producers Akiva Goldsman ("Mind Games") and Greg Berlanti ("Flash", "Green Lantern" and "Soul-chilling adventures of Sabrina").
"Bodyguard". From October 24th to Netflix
At the end of the month, Netflix will host the world premiere of the British TV series "Bodyguard". The plot is built around the life of war veteran David Butt, now serving in the London police department. He is charged with defending the ambitious Home Secretary of the United Kingdom, Julia Montague, whose policy is profoundly alien to Battu.
The local premiere of the television series in Britain and Ireland was held in August 2018. Then the critics responded about the "Bodyguard" as a "fascinating psychological thriller."
