Fall Season: any new shows worth watching?

[riffjim4069]

Slim pickings in my opinion - there are very few shows that generate even a mild interest. Once the Criminal Minds, CSIs and Fringe return for their fall premier I doubt that I'll try more than 3-4 of the new shows. Although I don't have much hope, I do my best to take a look at: The Defender, My Dad Says, Hawaii Five-O, Blue Bloods, Detroit 1-8-7, Law & Order: LA, Chase, Outlaw, Lone Star, and The Event. To be honest, I see myself watching Blue Blood (it's on a non-competitive timeslot), Detroit 1-8-7, and perhaps the new Law & Order. We shall see.

Looking forward to Hawaii Five 0 and L&O LA

Looking forward to Hawaii Five 0 and L&O LA

Having watched the original H50, I'm thinking that I am going to be disapointed with the remake...expecially after seeing the promos. But who knows. Out of all the new shows I am probably most interested in checking-out L&O: LA...if nothing else just to see how it compares to the others in the franchise.

Hopefully Law & Order LA will not follow the same road than Law & Order Trial by Jury did...

I thought it was already there. Anyway, I plan to check-out this show since the Friday night lineup is so thin after Numb3rs and Ghost Whisperer was cancelled.

Or "Hollywood it up" like NCIS: Los Angeles. Love NCIS - hate NCIS: Los Angeles.

I read you, me I love NCIS, but when it finishes and NCIS Los Angeles starts, I change the channel... (nothing against the west coast) but mm no, not for me...

I've actually gotten used to NCIS-LA. It is not the original, for sure, but if taken on its own its a passable hour. In my case it's really 45 minutes because I DVR it.

Watching NBC´s trailers for The Event has got me intrigued already...

It looks interesting, but I worry that it will be another flash forward type where you muddle through half a season just starting to learn about it and then it is canceled before anything is really revealed.

Looking forward to No Ordinary Family. As for Hawaii Five O , I don't know. Has any remake of a TV show ever made it?

Agreed, looking forward to see how No Ordinary Family and The Event fare. Of course also can't wait for Supernatural and Fringe to start back up!

I don´t think there has been a prior remake for Hawaii Five O, and I certainly hope it does not result in what happened to abc´s remake of "V" (we are of peace...always..)

Fringe that´s a good one, I´m hooked on it.

 

[riffjim4069]

With this new lineup, I get the feeling that I'll CSI: Miami before (m)any of the new shows.

Hawaii Five O, The Event and I think we will give Chase a try

It just shows the total lack of creative thinking in Hollywood. Bringing back TV shows is boring. Hawaii Five-O might make it . Who knows. But can't anyone think of a new idea? A total new show ? It's sad really.

CW programming started this week. Thursdays Nikita looks interesting.

My Plan for the new shows...

Well, I'm hoping to catch many of the new fall shows in the coming week. Of course, considering that I only have time to watch one or two new shows regularly...it won't be easy to give 'em all a propery viewing. As much as I love my TivoHD and Premier, I still hate the fact they only have two tuners - even though I have OTA. Anyway, here is my plan:

Added new timers (lowest priority) - these are the shows I am most interested in checking-out:

- Hawaii Five-O
- Detroit 1-8-7
- The Whole Truth
- The Defenders
- Blue Bloods

I'm also interested in checking-out Law & Order: Los Angeles, but I already have timers set for The Defenders and The Whole Truth. Of course, I am sure one of both of these timers will be deleted after samping the shows.

I am mildly interested in checking out Chase, but I have timers set for Hawaii Five-O and Castle during this time-slot. However, I get the feeling I won't be interested in Hawaii Five-O...and I am almost certain that Chase will suck anyway.

Shows I really don't want to see, yet added timers:

- Lone Star (Mon 9pm)
- Raising Hope (Tue 9pm)
- Running Wilde (Tue 9:30pm)
- Hellcast (Wed 9pm)

I would rather my timers fired for:

- FlashForward
- Jericho
- Invasion
