📺 THE TV CAVE’S DAILY WATCHLIST: WHAT TO STREAM & WATCH ON NOVEMBER 9

Grab your snacks, fluff those couch cushions, and silence that group chat — because tonight’s TV lineup is stacked with holiday cheer, bloodthirsty grannies, and more twists than a Hallmark plotline. Here’s your ultimate guide to what’s worth watching (and what you’ll be doomscrolling about tomorrow).

☕ EARLY MORNING BINGE (3:00 AM ET)

If you’re up before the sun — or never went to bed — the streaming world has your back.

🎭 Hal & Harper (MUBI) Our favorite indie couple faces post-Halloween existential dread. Expect deep emotional monologues, subtle heartbreak, and probably at least one scene featuring a flickering candle.

🏙️ Mayor of Kingstown (PARAMOUNT+) Mike and Ian stumble onto a coverup so messy it needs its own hazmat suit. The cartel’s closing in, and the power plays are getting deliciously shady.

💥 Tulsa King (PARAMOUNT+) Dwight’s running out of time — and patience — as a deadly plot unravels. Expect explosions, betrayals, and one-liners that could cut glass.

🎄 PRIME-TIME CHRISTMAS CHEER (7:00 PM ET)

The holidays are officially in overdrive tonight, and the tinsel-tinted drama is chef’s kiss.

👑 A Royal Christmas Manor (UPTV MOVIE PREMIERE) A runaway prince meets a small-town innkeeper who — gasp! — doesn’t know he’s royal. Expect cocoa-fueled charm, accidental mistletoe moments, and snow that looks suspiciously like soap bubbles.

🎁 8:00 PM ET: TRIPLE FEATURE OF FESTIVE FEELS

Your remote’s about to get a workout.

🛳️ A Keller Christmas Vacation (Hallmark Channel) Estranged siblings reconnect aboard a Christmas river cruise through Europe. Think The White Lotus meets Elf — but with more twinkle lights and fewer lawsuits.

💌 Christmas of Giving (Great American Family) A nonprofit queen with a dwindling budget finds her ex… and possibly her faith in Christmas miracles. Tissue count: high.

👵 Killer Grannies (Oxygen) Series premiere alert! June Squibb narrates true-crime tales proving that Grandma’s cookies aren’t the only thing that can kill. Spooky, shocking, and slightly sweet — just like your nana.

🕵️ Tracker (CBS) A missing man, a lawless town, and a wilderness showdown. Colter’s latest case is all grit, grit, and more grit — with just enough emotional depth to make you root for him between chase scenes.

🎈 9:00 PM ET: CHAOS HOUR

Because no night of TV is complete without a touch of the bizarre.

🎈 IT: Welcome to Derry (HBO) The It prequel continues its creep-fest with secret missions, aerial digs, and spine-tingling nostalgia. Pennywise may not be front and center, but the dread? Alive and well.

🐍 Krapopolis (FOX) Tyrannis gets a new girlfriend, and naturally, chaos follows. Meanwhile, Deliria and Hippocampus deal with a plague — because why not toss a little biblical drama into date night?

🕯️ Maigret (PBS) Season finale time! Tragedy in Saint-Fiacre sends Maigret down a rabbit hole of lies, loss, and moral reckoning. Bring your wine — it’s going to get French and heavy.

🎤 The Road (CBS) When a musician’s health crisis hits mid-tour, emotions soar. Bonus: Gretchen Wilson herself performs “Here for the Party.” (Yes, that’s your cue to sing along.)

🏹 Robin Hood (MGM+) Little John joins the gang! As the Sheriff closes in, Robin’s crew dives deeper into Sherwood — and deeper into danger.

🍰 Sweet Empire: Winter Wars (Food Network) Series premiere alert! Fourteen sugar wizards face off at the Yuletide Lodge, creating confections so gorgeous you’ll resent your store-bought cookies. Hosted by Wells Adams — because apparently he does everything now.

🩸 Talamasca: The Secret Order (AMC) Undercover missions, vampires, and cryptic numbers — all in one hour. If you like your supernatural shows served with a side of moral crisis, this one’s your dessert.

🍔 9:30 PM ET: QUICK BITE OF COMEDY

🥖 Bob’s Burgers (FOX) Tina’s playing matchmaker, and the Belchers are battling a super rat. It’s classic chaos, extra crispy.

🔥 10:00 PM ET: LATE-NIGHT DRAMA HITS

🔫 Billy the Kid (MGM+) Billy’s back with his family and planning a prison break — because that’s just how this cowboy rolls.

💼 The Chair Company (HBO) Ron’s latest investigation spirals into something far darker than corporate drama. Office politics just got lethal.

💅 10:30 PM ET: HOLLYWOOD HANGOVER

🌴 I Love LA (HBO) Maia juggles fame, friendship, and a Balenciaga theft accusation. Welcome to Hollywood — where the drama’s always designer.
