2011-12 Fall TV Thread
Well folks, it's that time of year again.
With the half season summer shows either wrapping up or taking a break, its about we time we discuss the fall television line up. Some shows are getting ready or already have debuted and others get started later than usual, I'm looking at you Bones fans. So take some time to share what you're going to continue watching, what new shows you're interested in, and hell, make some predictions on who's going to get the early ax. For those who are clueless as to what's on, here's a link to tvguide.com for the weekly line-up. Continue watching: House NCIS NCIS: LA Sons of Anarchy Nikita Should start watching: Blue Bloods The Good Wife Bones Criminal Minds Will check out: L&O SVU: Top to bottom cast shake up. Gotta see how it works out. Person of Interest Terra Nova Early Ax: The Playboy Club Pan Am |

I will probably check out "2 Broke Girls" on CBS, even though it looks terrible. Will only check it out because of Kat Dennings.
I'll probably check at least the first episode of "Terra Nova". Will definitely check out ABC's "Once Upon a Time", even though I wish they would have gone through with their "Fables" series instead. And that is probably it out of the new shows. |

Since I have a total of 1-2 hours per day that I can catch up on tv and don't have a DVR (Comcast On Demand or VCR is it), I'll probably not add anything new to my viewing at this time.

I'd say it stands a decent chance of sucking but I'll be checking the first episode or two of How To Be A Gentleman ft. Rickety Cricket, Johnny Drama and DAMMIT CHLOE

Monday: I cant get myself excited for Tera Nova..so probably nothing.
Tuesday: New Girl at 9 on Fox...Id watch Ringer with SMG at 9 but I dont get CW in HD and our CW station's PQ is abysmal, so I wont bother. Wednesday: nothing Thursday: Big Bang Theory..will give HTBAG after a shot, and Prime Suspect at 10 on NBC gets a shot. Friday: Fringe Saturday..lol Sunday: FOX Animation from 8-10, wish Bob's Burgers was at 8:30 instead of Allen Gregory but it doesnt look too bad. Bobs Burgers comes back midseason but then they dump American Dad in favor of the fucking Napoleon Dynamite cartoon..ugh |

I give the majority of new shows a chance...at least two episodes unless the first one is god awful...too many to list at the moment.
And of course all the returning shows I watch...also far too many to list |

Nah, Community is good, BBT is mediocre. It's different, but not really funny or clever. Community is hilarious, original, and pretty damn clever. Sadly though, most people don't know about it because they watch canned form comedies.
Not saying BBT is bad. Haven't cared enough to watch enough of it to make that decision. But I'm definitely saying Community is better, and BBT gets a lot more praise than it deserves. It's not special, it's just sort of there. |

High School Chemistry Teacher finds out he has cancer. In an effort to make some real money before he goes, he teams up with a former student to go into the business of making Meth.

I feel the more important gist to point out when it comes to Breaking Bad is that it is fucking brilliant. Watch it now. Like right now.

Can't wait for the Vampire Diaries to start...gonna be a hot season.
Gonna check out Kiefer Sutherland's new show. Ringer for sure as I Sarah Michelle Gellar Secret circle seems to be good as it's going to follow the Vampire Diaries. Community, The Office usual favorites. Sadly I'll watch the first 2-3 episodes of 90210 just to see where they go with it. And some doctor show staring Rachel Bilson. Cause I loved her on The OC |

I don't have a DVR for this upcoming season Can't wait to see how Brannon Braga can fuck up another sci-fi series with Terra Nova. It must be the killing Kirk Curse or maybe he's just not that good.
Kinda wish they did that series about the policemen with magic powers. It might have been a fun diversion from the normal crap cop dramas they keep churning out. Can't believe nobody has mentioned Bored to Death here yet. Can't wait to catch up on season two on demand for whenever it starts up agian. |

Bored to Death is amazing, top 3 favourite shows that are currently running with Breaking Bad and Californication. Didn't "feel the need" to talk about shows that already exist tho hence not mentioning it

Didn't think the second season was as good as the first. Maybe. I dunno. I need to watch both again.
