The longest-running family drama in television history, "7th Heaven" continues the story of the Camden family on Monday nights. On November 7, Martin (Tyler Hoechlin) tries to confess the truth about Sandy's (Haylie Duff) pregnancy to his father. On November 14, Eric discovers a shocking secret about his parents. On the November 21 Thanksgiving episode, Ruthie (Mackenzie Rosman) is the victim of a vicious rumor. Finally, on November 28, Kevin (George Stults) and Martin come to blows over Martin's attitude toward Sandy, while Simon (David Gallagher) has second thoughts about his engagement.

On Tuesday nights, "Gilmore Girls" will feature several surprising return visitors beginning November 8 when Rory's (Alexis Bledel) former boyfriend Jess Mariano (guest star Milo Ventimiglia) shows up to tell Rory about an impressive accomplishment that leads her to a revelation about her own situation.

On November 15, the world that Lorelai (Lauren Graham) and Luke (Scott Patterson) have been building is turned upside down by the shocking appearance of a figure from Luke's past. Also in this episode, Lorelai and Rory move toward a long-overdue reconciliation. On November 22, Christopher (David Sutcliffe) makes a surprising appearance, Lorelai and Rory celebrate their first Thanksgiving at the Dragonfly Inn and Rory receives unexpected news about Logan (Matt Czuchry).

Continuing the Tuesday lineup is the hit drama "Supernatural," which critics have called the “scariest series on television.” On November 8, the Winchester brothers, Sam (Jared Padalecki) and Dean (Jensen Ackles), begin a frantic search for the cause of an infestation of killer insects that threatens to engulf an entire community. November 15 is an emotional episode in which the brothers return to their childhood home – the scene of their mother's horrible death. On November 22, when Sam and Dean investigate a sanitarium with a history of abuse, the evil still residing in the building causes Sam to slowly lose his grip on sanity and turn on his brother.

The power of the "Charmed" Ones reigns on Sunday nights when Piper (Holly Marie Combs) and Leo (Brian Krause) switch bodies after a session with a magical marriage counselor on November 6. Billie (Kaley Cuoco) uncovers the force behind the battle of the sexes, while sparks fly for Paige (Rose McGowan) when she meets a troubled teen's parole officer (guest star Ivan Sergei) on November 13.
