2014-15 Fall Television Thread
 

Went through the pages and didn't see one made. But if it was, would a mod kindly merge it. Much appreciated.

Anyway, we're about a couple weeks to a month out from new seasons getting underway. This of course is the thread where we post what we're all going to watch this season. What we're willing to try. And, of course, what's going to get cancelled quick.


For me:

Sunday: Aside from football, might catch an episode of The Simpsons.

Monday: Quite the log jam. Wanna watch Gotham and The Blacklist. But it's gonna conflict with Monday Night Raw. More than likely, Gotham will be on the Tuesday morning On Demand replay.

Tuesday: NCIS will have my full attention. Willing to give NCIS: New Orleans a chance. Can't go wrong with Scott Bakula. Although I might annoyed with Lucas Black quick. Bad night to put The Flash on. Would have put it on Wednesday after Arrow. Gonna try to catch that, too.

Wednesday: Arrow and Criminal Minds. With some TV catch up along the way.

Thursday: FOOTBALL.

Friday: Maybe give Constantine a chance.

Along with the final seasons of Sons of Anarchy and Justified, should make for some good TV.


Alright. Your turn, guys. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaand go!

mon-sun: nothing

once the walking dead/game of thrones/Mad men come back:

Sun: those three shows.

Continue watching: Walking Dead, Once Upon a Time, Arrow

Start Watching: Gotham, The Flash, Constantine, iZombie..... pretty much anything comic-book based... feel the need to at least check them out. Don't know if there is anything not based on a comic book worth checking out.

OH! Dr.Who

So i do have an addition. ^_^

No plans to check out anything new. Nothing has caught my interest really. A few people keep harping on about Gotham. Looks absolutely terrible.

At the moment it's just Doctor Who (yay it's back), The Walking Dead (meh it's back), Agents of Shield (Kinda yay), Arrow (cool, I guess) coming back soon. The rest is later in the year or early next year I think. Depending on how it goes, could easily be the last season of The Walking Dead I watch. It's been a bit dire for a good while now.

Yeah, Gotham doesn't look that great, and I'm not too sold on Constantine either.... just feel the need to check them out because of my nerdism.

Also, forgot about Agents of Shield. Will continue to watch that one too.

What's with the Once Upon a Time obsession. Thought it was for chicks, my girflriend digs it and all, but turns out a few of my male friends watch the shit out of it as well.

It is a good show, that picks up after the first season.... does have a lot that could appeal to girls... stuff about "true love" and stuff.... I have asked before it was ok to admit I liked it, or if it wasn't manly....

I think Poit watched it though, so it definitely is manly.

Characters from the movie "Frozen" to appear next season.

I've mentioned a few times here that I watched the first season and it was alright, but it was really repetitive with the main bird and the evil queen bird having beef, with random fairy tale characters thrown in each episode to provide a subplot which tended to not develop much in the overall scheme of the show.

Yeah, that why I said it picks up after the first season.

Well, it's got Robert Carlyle so that's a plus.

My show's this season will likely be Arrow, Agents of Shield, NCIS(original, LA and New Orleans), Castle, The Vampire Diaries, The Originals, The Flash, Gotham and Pretty Little Liars(which is already airing but will be on break when those start) but other than that, I'm not sure.

Have you checked out The 100?

New Shows For 2014-2015

New Midseason Shows

List of possible shows

Shows Renewed For the 2014-2015 Season

Shows Canceled or Ended in 2014

Just talking about new shows:

Only things I'm looking forward to:

The Flash
Gotham
Constantine

Things I'll give a shot:

Scorpion
NCIS: New Orleans (pretty much only for Scott Bakula, doubt I'll stick with it for long)
Forever

Everything else sounds just meh. I'm sure I'll check out a few other things, but this is the first fall season in a while that I have little interest in most new stuff

Monday-Maybe watch a match or two on Raw.

Tuesday-Sons of Anarchy,which is ending this season

Wednesday-American Horror Story

Friday-Constantine,saw the pilot last month and it is good.

Sunday-Boardwalk Empire,which is also ending this season, and Walking Dead.

So losing two shows and adding one. But really since the writer's strike in 2007 I barely watch any tv.

Z Nation is not that great

It's airing already?

Vampire Diaries and Diners, Drive-ins and Dives w/ Guy Fieri

I know there's no Nina Dobrev but you don't watch The Originals?

It's on my log unfortunately, I'm still on Season 1 not because of anything bad, just it's a show I share with the wife, she has me backlogged real bad, the only thing she doesn't like is Breaking Bad and I was allowed to watch that on my own

So far, How To Get Away With Murder seems like the most promising new network show. Enjoying Forever and - inexplicably - Gotham, as well.

Legends is better than I expected (onto episode 4), Sean Bean is always watchable but the rest of the show has been pretty good too, Blacklist faded towards the end of series one but hopefully this one will pick up again.

It has one of the best heels on TV, Joseph Morgan(Klaus). I have watched a few episodes, but my wife and I wanted to binge it all the way through so we are in luck as it is coming to Netflix. Our DVR went and pooped on us at episode 3 so we are going to do the Netflix route, better quality on there as CW is one of the many non-HD channels on DirecTV for some reason

Haven't seen How to Get Away with Murder. Trailer didn't make me interested.

Love Gotham so far, but I figured I would.

Forever isn't bad so far

Caught like, 10 minutes of that the other day. Looked aight

If you've already watched the most recent TVD season then you and the wife might need to hurry up and watch TO since TVD and TO are closely related so there might be a couple of spoilers of TO in TVD and vice versa. It's pretty much one show split into two it seems like but only to a certain extent.

I noticed that in one episode when Klaus showed up on TVD, he needs to go back to relentless, Time to Play the Game Klaus soon.

Scorpion's pilot episode was really good. Have to watch ep 2 with the wife and see if it holds.

TNT cancels Dallas after 3 seasons.

Holy crap, the new season of Once Upon a Time is terrible so far. Disney really needs to stop trying to shoehorn Frozen into everything.

I think it has been alright. I don't mind a bit of Frozen.

Henry really suffering a case of growing but still trying to be made to seem younger than he is. Snow White suffering from a case of fat.

Pretty much enjoying The Strain.

Hate most of shit about vampires but this is pretty good. Though that vampire master looks fucking awful.

Lost its network over here after Season Two, found it a lot better than I expected just really easy to watch enjoyable television, so haven't seen season three yet but I was shocked to see they'd jammed Frozen into it for the new season, seems an odd choice.

Our new Autumn line-ups all land in the next few weeks so looking forward to Gotham and Flash, anyone got an opinion on How to Get Away With Murder? Can't decide on it from the trailer and it seems to split the reviewers down the middle.

The pilot was excellent. The second one wasn't as strong, but still solid. I'm interested to see where they're going, but they run the risk of carrying so many sub-stories that they won't all fit together by the finale.

:yes:

It looks interesting, but really jumbled from the trailer, having seen it do you think it is one of those shows that will settle down after the first few weeks and be good, or is it always going to be somewhat over-stuffed do you think?

Finally caught Forever last night, damn it really, really wants to be Elementary doesn't it!

It really could go either way. If it keeps relying on the flashback/en media res thing it's doing now, overstuffed seems likely.

I enjoyed Forever, but I got a major Elementary vibe, too.

Starting to stray from NCIS: NOLA. Last night If they bring in guys from the original again to draw some viewers, I'm done. There's gotta be a time when you gotta stand on your own feet.

Missed out on Flash last night. But good thing there's On Demand. Totally pumped for Arrow tonight!

Mikala is hooked on Selfie after the first two episodes. I have Bad Judge, Intruders, and The Affair downloaded and ready to watch, have any of you guys seen those shows yet?

Saw maybe 10 minutes of Selfie. Didn't like it. Haven't seen the others

I enjoyed The Flash.

CBS cancels Unforgettable for a 2nd time.


Starz renews Black Sails for a third season.

FX cancels The Bridge.

With Sons of Anarchy and Justified done after this season, don't know what's left on the channel aside from American Horror Story and The Americans.

They can't finish Justified, I just started watching it!

Its only been on for 6 years..

Also, I know its not new technically since it aired in other countries but the Transporter Series on TNT was OK. TNT must have no faith in it though by airing two episodes on Saturday nights. I didn't think I'd like anyone else besides Statham being Frank but the guy they got is decent. The first episode had the feeling of the movies and was better than the 2nd.

Constantine was "ok". Nothing great. Seems like a "faithful" adaptation of sorts.

Never really got into the Hellblazer comics. Read a bunch of them once. Dunno. I just find John Constantine better as a supporting character.... loved him in Swamp Thing and other things where he just shows up and stirs stuff up....

I expect tv companies to wait for me to catch up.

And the first casualty of the fall TV season is ABC's Manhattan Love Story.

Never heard of it

Exactly.

When did Key and Peele stop doing the studio audience and switched it to them driving around and talking?

This season.

Okay, now that most of the new shows have had a few weeks to find their footing, here's how I'd rank the ones I'm watching:

1. The Flash
2. How To Get Away With Murder
3. Constantine
4. Forever
5. Marry Me
6. A To Z
7. Gotham

I want to watch Mulaney, because I love his stand-up and I think Nasim Pedrad was way underused on SNL, but the show looks terrible.

FULL SEASON

• Black-ish (ABC)
• The Flash (The CW)
• Gotham (Fox)
• How to Get Away With Murder (ABC)
• Jane the Virgin (The CW)
• Madam Secretary (CBS)
• The Mysteries of Laura (NBC)
• NCIS: New Orleans (CBS)
• Scorpion (CBS)
• Stalker (CBS)

CANCELED

• Manhattan Love Story (ABC)
• Mulaney (Fox; episode order cut to 13, and won't film additional episodes)

STILL ON THE BUBBLE

• A to Z (NBC)
• Bad Judge (NBC)
• Constantine (NBC)
• Cristela (ABC)
• Forever (ABC)
• Gracepoint (Fox)
• Marry Me (NBC)
• Red Band Society (Fox)
• Selfie (ABC)
• Utopia (Fox)

NBC cancels Bad Judge and A to Z. But both will stick around for their 13-episode runs.

Bummer. I liked A to Z. They had alot of cool 80s references. Looks like it will be more like from A to M.

Utopia looks doomed too. Alot of characters left on this last episode. It's probably over. They are supposed to be there for a year. Wonder what happens when the show goes under. Do they still stick around for the stream?

Only newshow I'm really into is Gotham. Caught up on Utopia just to check what it was about.

Second episode of Constantine... still not impressing me much.... Zed is "hotter", but I think I would have preferred the chick from the pilot to stay as the supporting character.

Fuck, I liked the both, and A-Z was Mikala's favourite new show.

I watched 5 episodes of How To Get Away With Murder today, I'm digging that. It's Shakiya and mines new show. A couple of the gay sex scenes shocked me a bit, she just laughed and brushed them off and said it doesn't matter if they're having sex if they love each other. I brought her up well.

America wasn't ready for Ted's wife to date again.

ABC cancels Selfie and gives a full season to Forever.

AMC renews Hell on Wheels for a 5th and final season.

CBS cancels The Millers.

Utopia cancelled and the stream down. Last episode aired was Halloween.

Netflix saves Longmire from cancellation. Season 4 starts in 2015.

Fucking psyched!

NBC is gonna end Constantine at 13 episodes this season. If it gets picked up for a 2nd season is still up in the air.

Just started watching this, why does America insist on cancelling my newly discovered shitkicker themed shows.

Been watching it, and while watching it all I think is "If this wasn't based on a comic book, I would not be watching this show right now".

I had a feeling when I saw they had slotted it in at 9pm Fridays NBC didn't have much faith in it. I am enjoying it.

The lead guy seems monotonous to me. I feel like I'm listening to a professor whenever he explains things but in the first few episodes it seems like he just yelled most of the time. I think changing the original direction didn't help either which the pilot episode is supposed to establish but the whole Jasper and his daughter thing just went out the window.

Fox's Red Band Society will also end it's first season after 13 episodes.

Interesting, 2nd show in a week that's happened.

Yeah, they decided to change the direction of the show after already doing the pilot. Think I would have preferred the original direction. Having a "normal" person getting introduced and wrapped up into the magical world would have been better than what they have.

But I already gave my thoughts on Constantine. Think he really works better as a supporting character. Like I would mark out and lose it if he were to appear on Arrow or Flash because something "mystical" is happening. But watching him try to be the lead in his own show/story is just... I dunno....

USA cancels Covert Affairs after 5 seasons.

Arrow & The Flash both renewed for another season.

iZombie also set for a Tuesday March 17 Premiere.

Yay this week Constantine comes back. So until Feb this is the only non-wrestling show I am watching.

Have the last three episodes of Constantine on my DVR.... Haven't watched them yet.

Archer s6 premiere was fantastic, as to be expected.

Last season of Justified starts tonight.

Pretty sad to see it go so soon.

heard lots of good things about Justified, have a couple seasons or so of it d/led... any good

Love The League but Nick Kroll has probably the most punchable face on the planet

Oh and Suits back a week from tomorrow :cool:

Awesome show. Tim Olyphant is just too cool as Raylin Givens.

Watched the first 5 seasons in about a week, cannot put it over enough, Dewey Crow is comedy gold.

This is what season 5? That is a decent run for a cable show. Been to have to few seasons than go on so long the show becomes a self parody.

Season 6 just started.

THE greatest show on TV :y:

I've just started watching 'The Affair', seems like a good show so far.

Also, watched the pilot of 'Cocked'. It could turn out alright, I'll need to watch a couple more episodes first to tell.

AND, I have 'The Man In The High Castle' to watch, seems like a good idea for a show, what might have happened if the Nazi's won WWII.

That looks the best of the Amazon pilots tbh.

Thumbs pointed slightly down for Backstrom which will probably get canned just like tge show Rake thst i did like in last years same premiere time slot.

Dwight Schrute might keep it alive.

Suits back on tonight

The Americans s3 too

heck yeah

2 Broke Girls is one of the worst sitcoms I have ever seen.

Is there any redeeming qualities aside from Kat Dennings' rack? Everything else about her makes me want to swim in acid.

<font color=goldenrod>It's Always Sunny has been incredible this season. Charlie stole the show last night. He never left the camera during the entire 10 or so minute health inspection scene, which at least makes it look like they managed to pull it off in one take.</font>

Didn't even know a new season was on... Will definitely have to check it out.

Yeah, it is pretty bad.... But I will admit to watching it on occasion because I have a crush on Kat Dennings(' rack)
