Fall 2011 new TV shows (((new update about Awake on post 185)))

31,436 2,810 September 21, 2011 at 12:01 PM in Entertainment (5) Youtube
So what do you think about the new shows so far?

I like New Girl, it was a bit awkward and slow at the beginning but by the end of the show, I was hooked. There were some funny jokes and good casting. I love the Small spoiler:


Two Broke Girls
, I made the mistake of watching a short clip online about a week ago and thought it looked terrible but DH set it to tape. Turns out the short clip was the least funny line in the whole show, the rest of the show was witty and downright funny.


Unforgettable
, meh. I'll watch one more because DH wants to, but wasn't that fussed over it. There were a couple of really annoying points in the show. Huge spoiler:


Free Agents
, really liked this one. Good cast and a really good pilot. Just hope they can keep it up without it becoming tired.


The Secret Circle
. Typical trying to cash in on Twilight show, only with witches. Couldn't get through one episode.


Same thing with Ringer, had to turn it off part way through the pilot.


Some shows I'm looking forward to, haven't aired yet....

Awake (no air date at this time but the trailer is really interesting and the lead actor is one of my faves, he's British)
Grimm (trailer looks good, even though the premise sounds silly http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kh3rFsv_WSE it airs 10/28, date changed)
Pan Am (Like Madmen in the air?Dontknow airs 9/25)
Person of Interest (the trailer looks really good, interesting premise airs 9/21)
Prime Suspect (there's a British Show by the same name, so I guess they're doing an American version Dontknow Airs 9/22)

Oh no! Is Grimm a cop show? Hide Now I'm not sure I'll try to find a way to watch it...





Not saying it had much of a chance. Since I don't have a program guide on the TV anymore, I never know what is on when, so I rarely watch anything on a schedule anymore. Sadwalk
Yep, cop show. It kind of reminded me of the show Brimstone, just not as good.

I'm loving Grimm.. will review after a few more episodes, but DF stayed awake to watch it so it gets extra points for that. Like Zoe said, he doesn't like those type of shows either.
Once Upon a Time is quirky....still watching it.
New Girl was a riot..not so much anymore...maybe the world series break killed it. IDK
Two Broke Girls is funny..just always forget it's on..lol
the new 2 and a half Men is funny to me, DF liked it better with Charlie Sheen. I never watched it then.

Haven't started watching Revenge, but hear it's good.

Pretty much all thats interested me. Dontknow

Liking it but wish I didn't hear that they wanted you to not be sure who the bad guy is because that's not true for me at all.

Wow, I'm surprised people liked Grimm so well. I couldn't get over how unrealistic the "cop parts" were, like Secret

Still & all if they stick with that theme of "he's the last in a line of Grimms" it may be interesting but they need to lay off the "I'm a cop too dammit!" stuff or it's going to get to be more funny than anything else.

Iagree Very unrealistic "cop parts". Dontknow

Tonight's episode:

This is going to be one of those shows that I'll watch ONLY because there's absolutely nothing else on at the same time.

It's been "pulled" but not officially canceled.

Quote :
NBC says neither "Community" nor "Prime Suspect" has been canceled, and that "Community" is expected back at some point. The network says it is considering its options with "Prime Suspect."
