With the Hopper and PTAT, I'm planning on giving all the new one hour shows two episodes to hook me. Then I'll decide on permanent timers.

Timers I had set for last season (cancelled series):

Alcatraz - passively watched...series did not draw me in.
CSI: Miami - long-time favorite although I quit watching from time to time
A Gifted Man - I liked this series and it had a 8-10 million audience...shame.
House - loved this series, but it was time to move on.
Prime Suspect - series cancelled after 13-episodes...I stopped watching after 6.
Terra Nova - lots of potential, but the series failed to deliver on it's promise; cheesy dinosaurs.
Unforgettable - I liked it...supposed to be brought back mid-season for 13-episode conclusion

New timers for this season:

Hannibal (NBC) - mid-season replacement which I think will be gone after 13-episodes; interesting in that it deals with Hannibal Lechter...hope it doesn't suck.
Revolution (NBC) - like Invasion, Jericho and Flashforward I feel the first couple episodes will get good ratings. Of course, just like most primetime Sci-fi it will disappear.
Zero Hour (ABC) - I'll give it a shot, but not much hope for this series.
Elementary (CBS) - I like the "Sherlock Holmes" aspect, but I don't hold out much hope for this one.

None on the new shows Fox looked interesting to me. We shall see...

Maybe 1 or 2 of them will make it.Most likely I'll dvr them and wait to see if they get canned.I did that with Alcatraz last year,had the entire series recorded,once they canceled it I deleted the series.

Enjoyed Last Resort very much,The Neighbors at least the pilot was funny so I'll watch a few more.Also gonna stick with Revolution a few more episodes.

Watched a few mins.of Elementary on the Kindle and as much as I like Lucy Lui I just can't get into another Sherlock Holmes show/movie.

I never did have the time nor the desire to try Zero Hour. However, I have enjoyed Elementary (best new fall show) and Revolution to a lesser extent. Elsewhere, I have a mental reminded to add a timer for Hannibal and re-add one for the 13-episode return of Unforgettable.

I may be wrong, but I don't think Zero Hour has aired yet. If it has I never noticed it.

You are not wrong, it is coming in 2013..... Maybe January.

Nice to know...with Fringe going away perhaps I will add a reminder for this Zero Hour in addition to Hannibal. I like the premise for Hannibal, but I don't see how this is going to be anything more than a 13-episode one-and-done. We shall see.
