15 Most Exciting New TV Shows You Need To Watch This Fall

10. Splitting Up Together (ABC)

What Is It

A couple who have been together for 12 years decide to get a divorce - however, they'll still be living together, and find their relationship invigorated by splitting up but staying together.

Reasons To Be Excited

It's an interesting take on the long-worn family sitcom premise, with two leads - Jenna Fischer and Oliver Hudson - with enough charm to help make it work. There's definitely scope to find humour in the show, while it's obviously pitching some big emotional moments as well, presumably looking to cash-in on the success of This Is Us. Fischer in particular seems great here, which is good news for fans of The Office and anyone intending to watch this.
