As the 2010s comes to a close, so do a number of beloved comedy series this month — cheers to you,Schitt’s CreekandBojack Horseman! But not to worry: The rest of January has plenty of returning fan-favorites, plus an ultra-buzzy sci-fi sequel series decades in the making. Catch up on all that and more in this month’s binge guide.

What it is:ConsideringDoctor Whois about nothing less than fantastical adventures through the space-time continuum, it’s difficult to sum up in a sentence or two. But just know that it follows an alien Time Lord who’s known as the Doctor (who’s been inhabited by a number of actors, and now an actress, over the years) and his companions —?in the two newest?seasons called her “friends.”

Why you should watch it:Doctor Whois making a case for being one of those timeless sci-fi properties that’s earned a devout following akin toStar WarsorStar Trek. The decades-spanning series always finds ways to one-up itself, and withmaking her grand debut last season as the first female Doctor, there’s never been a better time to jump aboard. Season 12 premiered Jan. 1 on BBC America — we recommend you begin with the 2006 relaunch.Jodie Whittaker

What it is:Father and son co-creatorsandpack in the laughs as the fictional father and son within the Roses, a millionaire mogul family. They are joined byas wacky matriarch Moira andas the ditzy daughter Alexis. When they lose their fortune, they’re forced to relocate to their sole possession: the town of Schitt’s Creek, which was bought as a gag gift years prior. The ensuing five seasons follows the family as they adjust to their new life and learn to call that small, unfortunately-named town home.Dan LevyEugene LevyCatherine O’HaraAnnie Murphy

Why you should watch it:We love a success story, andSchitt’s Creekhas one of our favorite little-show-that-could narratives of the decade. While always well-received and enjoyed by its niche Pop TV and CBC audience, this Canadian television series didn’t really bloom until hitting Netflix, where its bingeable 30-minute episodes — full, in equal measure, of both humor and heart — were eaten up by American audiences who became eager for more. Cut to 2018 Emmy nominations for best comedy series and lead actors Eugene Levy and O’Hara, and we’ve no doubt that season 6 will wrap the series on a touching — and hilarious — high note. Season 6 premieres Jan. 6 on Pop TV.

The pitch-perfect cast is led byas Otis and a scene-stealing, never-better (if you can believe it)as his mother, Jean; the nuances of their fraught and?evolving relationship paired with the high school dramas of puberty and beyond make this a must-watch.
