On Friday, September 26, the New York Film Festival kicks off at Lincoln Center. The festivities will open with Luca Guadagnino's After the Hunt and close with Is This Thing On? (directed by star Bradley Cooper), and there are many star-studded projects being screened in between. The New York Film Festival comes on the heels of the Telluride Film Festival, the Toronto International Film Festival, and the Venice Film Festival, all of which were likely precursors to this year's Oscar nominees.

Tickets to the most-anticipated features at the New York Film Festival have long since sold out, but there is no shortage of televised entertainment at this time of year. Football and hockey season are underway, the baseball playoffs begin next week, and autumn traditionally marks the return of beloved television shows and the pilots of new favorites.
