The New Fall TV Season

[wraithfodder]

Looks like most networks have posted their upfronts for the fall.

Oh, guess it's sorta sad that none of the cancellations bother me, except for Law & Order, which I thought had a few good years left. I mean, there are so many stories to rip from the headlines and things just get weirder every day! But I hear it might resurrect on TNT, or was it TBS. Hope so.

So, here are some links to the new shows...

I think the only show (it shows in 2011) is the new Steven Spielberg show FALLEN SKY, cuz it's sci-fi and stars Noah Wylie!

In looking at the FOX schedule

I see HUMAN TARGET has been moved to Fridays at 8pm, and the new midseason TERRA NOVA looks interesting. It's scifi, after all!

ABC

Well, "V" will return as a mid-season replacement (which may be November the way shows go belly up). OFF THE MAP is the only new show that tickles my interest, and I should really check out CASTLE since so many people recommend it. I should just buy the whole series on DVD and pass on the ads! ;)

*****************

NBC
http://www.daemonstv.com/2010/05/17/nbc-2010-2011-primetime-tv-schedule/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+daemonstv+%28Daemon%27s+TV%29

I'm sorta 'meh' on NBC's new lineup. I'm sorry to see the original LAW & ORDER get axed. There's really not much that screams 'watch me.'

****************

CBS

Okay, I will check out HAWAII FIVE-O to see what they've done. Not overly fond of the overly-fast intro credits which remind me of a mishmash of Hawaii Five-O, Bionic Woman, and something else. Casting looks good, but I hope the writing is up to snuff. Bad writing is why I bailed on Alex O'Loughlin's CBS medical show, er, can't recall title. yeah, that good *cough*

And BLUE BLOODS. I like Tom Selleck - think he's done great on the JESSE STONE telemovies - so hope this will be good..

Oh, and I see CSI: MIAMI, which I barely watch any as I think it jumped the mega-shark a while ago, has been moved to the push-it-off-the-cliff Sunday 10PM slot. CSI NY got moved to Fridays at 9PM, which could be good or bad for show, but hmm, I can watch HUMAN TARGET on Fox at 8pm, CSI NY at 9pm on CBS, and then BLUE BLOODS right after. Could work. SyFy will be showing gawdawful wrestling all nght, after all.
 Oh, and BIG BANG THEORY to Thursdays. No problem there. Now I can forget Monday nights ('cept for Hawaii Five-O) as I watched other drivel just till BBT came on.

So, what do you think of the fall schedule??

The thing I noticed was that no mention was made of The Rockford Files. Is it intended for later, or did it fail miserably--as it deserved without having Joe in it.

Definitely check out Castle. I only started watching recently and hubby, BIL and I all got completely hooked and chewed through all of season 1 and all of season 2 that was available while on holiday! :lol:

I would watch a few episodes of castle before you buy. I see a lot of ppl saying it's great but I don't really care for it. For me, it's been slow and I hate how wimpified they make Nathan Fillion. Sad thing is, I really like the cast. I just really don't care for the storytelling.

I think the new Hawaii five-o looked promising, but I'm biased, I really like O'Loughlin and I was so disappointed when I heard last fall he was signed for that stupid medical show. Then it was canceled and joy, new series that sounds so much better, even if it is a remake.

These network guys, they need to grow a brain. So much of the 'approved' stuff sounds absolutely terrible. And a lot of it has been lately, hence the amazing cancellation rates we see.

I love Castle. It's everything that a show should be, and the cast is amazing.

And I'm glad to see I'll have Chuck, Fringe, and Human Target back too.

I like Castle, too. It's worth at least a Nextflix or library run.

I can't believe V is still on the schedule. It's been utterly craptactular. You could fly a mothership through the plotholes.

Terra Nova is Spielberg's new show.

I love that there are other people who plan their weekly TV schedules ahead of time!
I'm a little nervous that Human Target got moved to Fridays at 8 - I'm hoping that doesn't kill it since it's become my "must-see" show on TV now. At least I can look forward to Friday nights again to get me through my week!
