If you know me, then you know I'm obsessed with TV. I get really excited about new shows coming and once I find a show I love I get committed to it. I watch it religiously and love reading articles from TV Guide and Entertainment Weekly about them. What can I say? I love stories and TV shows are stories in an on-going format.
Below are the TV shows that seem the most interesting and hopefully the ones that will stick around. I obviously can't watch them all (when would I sleep?), so the ones I'm definitely going to keep up with are: Gotham, A to Z, Red Band Society, Selfie, Forever, and The Flash.
DRAMA
Gotham
Before Batman, there was Commissioner Gordon (Ben McKenzie). His name is synonymous with law and order. The story shows how James Gordon goes from rookie cop to commissioner, and the crime world that spawned Batman's greatest foes. (FOX, Mondays at 8pm EST, starting Sept. 22)
This 10-part mystery event stars David Tennant as Detective Emmett Carver, who must figure out who killed a young boy in a sleepy seaside California town. The boy's death sparks a media frenzy and upends the lives of the town's residents. (FOX, Thursday at 9pm EST, starting Oct. 2)

COMEDY
A to Z
This show is about Andrew (Ben Feldman) and Zelda (Cristin Milioti), two people who almost didn't meet. Zelda goes to the office of Wallflower Online Dating after her profile has a glitch and there she meets Andrew, who thinks she might be the girl in the silver dress that he's been looking for. This is a cute show and with a 500 Days of Summer-like premise because they tell you instantly that this couple doesn't last. Watch the first episode! (NBC, Thursdays at 9:30pm EST, starting Oct. 2)

Selfie
Eliza (Karen Gillian) has 263,000 followers, but after a horrible day with no friends coming to her aid, she realizes that being friended is not the same as having friends. So she asks marketing guru Henry (John Cho) to "rebrand" her and maybe help make her a better person along the way. I saw this I already saw the first episode and although I wasn't expecting much from this show, it was actually really funny and likeable. You can watch the pilot here! (ABC, Tuesdays at 8pm EST, starting Sept. 30)

I keep seeing the Gotham commercials and can't help but be interested! I've also never heard of Gracepoint, but it looks interesting! (I love Tennant) I also think Master Chef Junior has a new season coming out this fall....which is what I'm most looking forward too...along with Supernatural, Teen Wolf, and Doctor Who! haha!
ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to Gotham. It seems really interesting.
ReplyDeleteI was only planning on keeping up with Gotham and The Flash, but Gracepoint sounds pretty interesting so I may have to set my DVR for that one too. I might check out Selfie because I love Karen Gillan and John Cho, but I have a feeling it won't last longer than one season.
ReplyDeleteI'm not a Batman fan, but I love prequel-y stories. Gotham looks really cool!
ReplyDeleteI am SUCH a TV junkie! I don't just flip through the channels but I follow a large handful of shows and watch them online. I have a hard time starting new shows but some of these look so good!
ReplyDeleteI am intrigued by the sound of Forever, and I am a big fan of Arrow, so I am really looking forward to The Flash, as well.
