November's Must-Watch List: Acorn TV Unveils a Stellar Lineup of Mysteries and Dramas

Well, hello there, fellow binge-watchers! As the days grow shorter and the air gets a little crisper – a perfect excuse, if you ask me, to plant yourself firmly on the couch – Acorn TV, that delightful purveyor of international intrigue, is truly stepping up its game for November 2025. And honestly, it’s looking rather splendid.

First off, and let’s not beat around the bush here, the buzz is all about 'The Gone' returning for its second season. You remember the first, right? That gripping New Zealand-set mystery? It had us all on the edge of our seats, wondering just what in the world was happening. Well, mark your calendars for November 10th because the detective duo – that's Raynor and those brilliant Kiwi investigators – are back to untangle yet another complex disappearance. Expect more stunning landscapes, certainly, but also plenty of those twists and turns that make this show so utterly compelling. It’s definitely one to clear your schedule for, I’d say.

But hold on, it’s not just about one stellar return. Acorn TV, in its infinite wisdom, is also bringing back some other beloved series. For instance, 'The Madam Blanc Mysteries' will be gracing our screens again. If you’re a fan of charming French settings, antiques, and a good old-fashioned whodunit with a touch of whimsy, then this is absolutely your cup of tea. And yes, 'Harry Wild' is back too! Jane Seymour as the quick-witted, unconventional retired literature professor turned private investigator? Pure gold, that is. Honestly, who wouldn't want to solve crimes with her?

And for those who prefer their mysteries with a bit more… French flair, perhaps? Well, 'Balthazar' is also making its triumphant return for its sixth season. It’s always a treat to watch that brilliant, if not a tad eccentric, forensic pathologist work his magic, isn't it? The sheer audacity of his methods, the way he delves into the darkest corners of the human psyche – it's all rather captivating.

So, what’s the takeaway here? November on Acorn TV is shaping up to be a truly robust affair. Whether you’re into the rugged charm of New Zealand crime, the cozy allure of French village mysteries, or the sharp wit of a Dublin-based investigator, there’s a little something for everyone. And for once, it feels like the perfect excuse to just settle in, grab a warm drink, and lose yourself in some top-notch storytelling. Happy viewing, everyone!
