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 (http://www.tvguide.com/special/fall-preview/fall-schedule.aspx) 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 :o
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
Corporate CockSnogger
08-19-2011, 12:43 PM
Probably going to be checking out Person of Interest, Ringer and Once Upon a Time.
Lock Jaw

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
Droford
08-19-2011, 09:17 PM
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
Terra Nova and Ringer looks interesting. Think I will get into Community one of these days. As for the ones I usually watch they are:
Monday
Castle
Warehouse 13
Eureka
Thursday
The Big Bang Theory
The Mentalist
The Vampire Diaries
Bones
The Office
Friday
Supernatural
Fringe
Chuck
Sanctuary
Spartacus
Sunday
Family Guy
American Dad
Dexter
True Blood
Top Gear
I don't watch TV, I just download them all.

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.
What's the gist of Breaking Bad?
Lock Jaw
08-22-2011, 01:26 AM
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.

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.

I don't have a DVR for this upcoming season :mad: 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
in fact, might watch Season 2 again starting tonight since I saw the 1st a bunch of times but haven't really re-watched 2

Going to be checking out both The New Girl and Ringer online a bit later on. Hoping I like Ringer just cause I love Sarah Michelle Gellar.
Corporate CockSnogger
09-14-2011, 09:41 AM
Ringer was okay without being groundbreaking. It was very soap opera-like. I'll probably keep watching to see wher they head with it, the ending has me interested.
New Girl was pretty fun. Zooey Deschanel was adorable and like a couple of others have said Damon Wayans Jr was really enjoyable in it, "sucks" that he won't be in it full time.
Watched a few episodes of Parks and Recreation but I don't think I will be watching anymore. I guess I only like the quasi-documentary thing with The Office and I don't dislike Amy Poehler but I just can't seem to watch or hear her for too long.
Just pay attention to Ron Swanson, Tom Haverford and Andy and who they are interacting with for that ep and you can kind of zone out for the rest. Those 3 characters are "the shit".
Boondock Saint
09-15-2011, 01:11 AM

Watched Up All Night. Pretty "eh". Probably gonna be canned.
Pretty much my thoughts exactly. I'm a big Will Arnett fan, but this character doesn't seem to fit him. I'll give it at least one more episode.
Watched Free Agents. Could see myself getting into it, but I wouldn't be sad to see it chopped. Hate that it's "based" in my hometown while looking nothing like my hometown tho.
2 Broke Girls is cute. It will probably be canned though.

She's as cold as fucking ice, she's not killing but she's destroying lives, ruining fortunes. It's pretty calculated, like her plots are built on chain reactions, manipulating people and being abl to predict how people are going to react to certain things. It's campy as fuck don't get me wrong (it is a night time soap) but it's ridiculously entertaining.

There's something about Kat that attracts me to her a lot.
It's called Boobs.
I wouldn't have tuned in otherwise.
I couldn't watch Revenge because they threw a thousand characters at me right at the beginning and I lost focus/interest. I'll give it another go another time though. Person of Interest seems pretty bad ass because of Jim Caviezel.
Terra Nova seems interesting. I don't think they can capture the magic of Jurassic Park or any good related dinosaur stuff so I think they should keep the dinosaurs in the background while focusing on the real reason behind Terra Nova.
Just watched the season finale of Weeds. Great ep with a huge cliffhanger.
The show hasn't been picked up for a 8th season yet tho. Would really suck to end the show this way
Also, I follow House very loosely, but can someone tell me in some spoiler tags how he ended up in jail?

Fox needs to give them one more season so they can replace it with that shit of an idea for a Flintstones reboot from Seth MacFarlane in 2013. that would at least be ironic replacing the Simpsons with the Flintstones..god damn fox if they end up replacing it with Napoleon Dynamite next year, they'll be begging the voice cast to come back when that starts off in the spring and flops and this stupid Allen Gregory show flops when it starts later this month.

Perfect Couples was bad, but having seen every episode it did grow on me and have some decent moments. But overall TERRIBLE, in my opinion. But I can see how it would appeal to some people. but for anyone to like Whitney, ughhhhhh.

I read it was only meant to get a 13 hour run and Fox already set a 2 hour finale for December 19th. I like the show for the most part. It's not full on substance yet, but it's entertaining enough.
I like Up All Night too. That's probably because I'm a Will Arnett mark though.
I like Terra Nova. It's not great but it's something to watch.

So Up All Night is amazing, but it's not always super funny. It's weird I'm actually loving it for the characters and basically the awesomeness of their relationship and parenthood.
Margot Robbie is delicous. I would love to taste her.

ABC optioned Fables to make a series but then realized all these fairy tales are pretty much public domain so they don't have to pay for their rights. So instead of paying Bill Willingham to use the Fables property they just went ahead and used their own story.

How are Person of Interest and Grimm?
If anybody is watching them.
First episode of Person of Interest is bad ass. The rest of the episodes aren't as bad ass though. I would like the two main characters' past to have some more stuff revealed but they're being slow on that. Also, it's better just to dive into the first episode instead of watching any trailers or anything.
Corporate CockSnogger

I had been watching Blue Mountain State since its debut last year. Just a completely mindless college football comedy. Season 3 just wrapped up last night and they actually ended the show on a serious note and appeared to have wrapped up the major storylines. Certainly appears to be the end of the series :(
Then again, the funniest character on the show is meant to be going pro...so if they have a 4th season they're gonna have to find some way to keep him involved.

And some doctor show staring Rachel Bilson. Cause I loved her on The OC
Vampire Diaries was everything and then some.
I'll give Touch another go
Secret Circle was decent, but has been cancelled.
