Some of the shows on this list are entering their final seasons, leaving fans of The Good Placeand Supernaturalchomping at the bit to find out how it all ends, while others are (hopefully) the next chapter in some of television's most beloved stories.

Below, 10 returning TV shows we can't wait to see.

1. American Horror Story: 1984, FX (Sept. 18)

Ryan Murphy's sexy people horror anthology shows no signs of slowing down with AHS: 1984arriving as a period piece that pays homage to the golden age of slasher flicks. Billie Lourd, Emma Roberts, Cody Fern and more return to play this season's victims (or villains), but keep an eye out for Pose's excellent Angelica Ross making her AHSdebut.

2. The Good Place, NBC (Sept. 24)

NBC's hilarious, touching, and philosophical comedy about four human douchebags figuring out the (very real, very complicated) afterlife premieres its fourth and final season in late September. Considering Season 3 ended on one of the show's characteristic cliffhangers, fans won't want to miss a single episode as The Good Placevery likely sticks its inevitable landing.

3. Superstore, NBC (Sept. 26)

Superstorehas always excelled at bringing together comedy and heart without sacrificing some of the modern world's more upsetting realities. With Mateo's potential deportation looming over the beginning of Season 5 and the unwelcome introduction of automation into the Cloud 9 workforce, this season is set to continue its tradition of making its audience laugh, then think, and laugh some more.

4. Big Mouth, Netflix (Oct. 4)

Big MouthSeason 3 picks up after February's "My Furry Valentine" special, which shook up the social order at the animated world's grossest and most relatable middle school. The show remains one of the funniest streaming series ever made, and also makes its audience beyond grateful that the relentless indignities of puberty are long behind them. Probably.

5. Supernatural, CW (Oct. 10)

Did anyone think they'd see the day when Supernaturalactually aired its final series premiere? For the last fifteen seasons, the Winchester brothers have been television mainstays and have amassed a fandom unlike any other on television. SupernaturalSeason 15 is a landmark event in television (seriously, it's the longest running genre series ever), and when its gone the hallowed cyber-halls of Tumblr will never be the same.

6. Riverdale, CW (Oct. 10)

Hell yeah, Riverdale's back too. What's going on with those crazy kids this time, eh? Is Archie going to fight a thirdbear and hallucinate another spiritual confrontation of the self? Will Veronica send any more of her immediate relatives to prison? Is Betty going to, like, IDK murder someone (again) or something? Who knows? No one knows. Tune in to find out. Jesus.

7. Castle Rock, Hulu (Oct. 23)

Hulu's Stephen King Extended Universe series continues with Season 2 of Castle Rock. Where Season 1 pulled inspiration from The Shawshank Redemptionand The Shining, this season focuses on Annie Wilkes of Miseryfame as the show explores the life King's most obsessive villain led before she...well, no spoilers.

8. Shameless, Showtime (Nov. 3)

Emmy Rossum may be done with Shameless, but Showtime certainly isn't. Now that the Gallagher family glue has departed, the tenth season will examine what life is like for TV's most beloved miscreants without Fiona around to keep them in check. But, to focus on what really matters, Mickey and Ian are finally together in prison!

9. Kidding, Showtime (Nov. 3)

Kidding's surreal atmosphere and towering performance by Jim Carrey made Season 1 a remarkable (if underrated) addition to Showtime's lineup. The sad, beautiful weirdness continues in Season 2, which will feature Arian Grande as a guest star and continue the story of Mr. Pickles' fascinating breakdown.

10. The Crown, Netflix (Nov. 17)

Time's arrow marches on for The Crown, the third season of which will be the first not to star Claire Foy and Matt Smith as Queen Elizabeth II and Philip, Duke of Edinburgh; Olivia Coleman and Tobias Menzies take over the roles as older versions of the royals. As the show's timeline proceeds to the mid-to-late 1960s, there will also be more focus on the next generation of the family, as Prince Charles' college years and romantic life loom on the story's horizon.
