TV Time!

What's that I hear?  Could it be the sound of our DVR ending it's summer rest and gearing up to record all of the new fall shows?

Yay!  This week begins the new fall TV schedule and I am so excited to finally see some new shows!  I sometimes get a little overwhelmed at the beginning of the fall trying to figure out what new shows to give a chance, hoping I don't get sucked into a show that will end up canceled in a couple of months (Lone Star or No Ordinary Family, anyone?).

This season I'm looking forward to:


-Up All Night on NBC. This looks like a funny take on first time parenthood, and I've loved Christina Applegate from her days as Sue Ellen.  We loved the pilot last week and can't wait to see more.

-Revenge on ABC.  Per IMDb -"Centers on a young woman who is welcomed into a community filled with people who don't know she's only there to exact revenge on those who had destroyed her family."


Via Yahoo

- New Girl on Fox.  I really like Zooey Deschanel's quirky sense of comedy.

Via Yahoo

-Person of Interest on CBS.  This is actually a DVR request of Chris', but it could be interesting even though I was not a Ben fan on Lost.

Of course I have some returning favorites including: How I Met Your Mother, The Office, The Big Bang Theory, The Mentalist, Vampire Diaries, Criminal Minds, Community, Glee, Modern Family (congrats to all of their Emmys last night!) and Happy Endings.  As you can tell, our DVR gets a work out in the Fall.  Good thing we recently learned about the On Demand feature with Verizon Fios, so if we can't DVR it we could still catch it later.

What new TV shows are you looking forward to this season?  What are some of your returning favorites?

  1. I really liked Ben on Lost, and I hadn't heard of that show!
    We're not big prime-time TV people. We're always at work in the evenings, and without a DVR, can't record things. We do subscribe to a few things on iTunes though, namely House, Doctor Who, and Torchwood. And when he isn't around, I watch Glee. :)

  2. If you liked Lost, there is a new show starting in October by the same people. I believe it is called "Once upon a time" and it looks really good.
