Flash forward and maybe V for me.

Not much new that really interests me.

 

[TOM f'N CRUISE]

FlashForward and V both for me.

Community looks good

will be watching these

 

[Sean]

Was just thinking, what happened to that sci-fi parody/comedy show from the dudes behind It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia?

canned I assume?

Wha?

 

[Costanza]

Actually, I was wrong.

They shot the pilot and they weren't happy with it, now they're doing re-shoots. Also, now that Always Sunny's been renewed for a couple more seasons he says they don't have any time to do the show, so they're handing it off to Larry Charles (who's worked on Seinfeld, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Entourage, and some other stuff, and directed Borat and Bruno) to take over for them.

Larry Charles is awesome. I really hope this airs eventually.

 

[BluWacky]

Que ?

One of the properties I work with is the stage musical version of Witches of Eastwick, which had a successful run in Washington in early 2007 but otherwise hasn't played in the States as we haven't found the right marketing angle or conditions to launch it wider (the downturn in tourism in 2001 killed off the original run of the show before it had a chance to flourish, so the title's not very well known - it's a huge success in the Czech Republic, strangely enough). If the TV show takes off, then potentially there'll be some revived interest Stateside in Updike and the Witches property in general which would give us a good platform to launch the show on.

So yes, vested interest!

 

[Salazar]

Perhaps not so strange, considering Henry Bech.

 

[Seraphis Cain]

Community looks promising. Joel McHale and Chevy Chase, how can you go wrong?

Also, no mention of Modern Family in the first post? I'll watch anything with Ed O'Neill in it.

 

[randomlyrossy]

Excited for Flashfoward, V too... but it is still a long way off

Might give Eastwick a go, as, erm, I liked Charmed

Looks like ABC have nailed what I like this time round

Spoiler

Still miss Journeyman... fuck you NBC

I feel your pain.

I'll be watching Community, V and Flashforward

But Also...

Stargate Universe
Premires 2nd of October, Scifi (Syfy ugh)

Can't believe I forgot about this, loooooooooove Stargate. This is looking very 'un'-stargate from the trailers but I will definetly be watching.


And Castle is back this month too? What a great month of tv.

 

[Wes]

I'll watch Eastwick just because it's got Benton Fraser in it.

V and Flash Forward seem like the pick of the shows.

 

[Tim the Wiz]

I'll give Stargate Universe and Community a try, and keep an eye out for extended reactions to V, FlashForward and Glee.

As for NCIS: LA, I don't think so, even though I actually watch the original series. The original is one of the few procedural television shows I can stomach due to the great chemistry shared amongst a quirky cast of characters, the odd imaginative and cynical turn of story, its surprisingly balanced worldview and its attempts at overarching narrative. The chemistry being the deal-breaker, obviously. It's similar to the type of relationship I have with shows like Psych and SG1. Enjoyable, light and quirky entertainment that doesn't take itself too seriously. Anyway, I severely doubt the spin-off being able to replicate that.

 

[gdt]

Here's me

V
FlashForward
Community

And I think thats it.

You forgot Trauma and Parenthood (I think PH got moved to Jan though). Those should be checked out if only because of the cast/crew.

 

[Anasui Kishibe]

You don't watch much television then

oh look it's harSon

 

[harSon]

oh look it's harSon

I'm not the one pulling shit out of his ass

 

[ilikeme]

GLEE

 

[Count of Monte Sawed-Off]

Nevermind.

 

[Anasui Kishibe]

I'm not the one pulling shit out of his ass

you're being helped? I feel sorry for you

I can count at least four tv shows with that kind of stereotype about black women

 

[Decado]

Just V and Flashforward. Need the cable networks to step it up with sci-fi, though, and I wish HBO aired new shows in the fall

 

[Black-Wind]

Is Fox still set to run that show "Bitches"?

I would and that to the list of shows I would give a chance to.

Oh, and has Glee started showing new stuff? I just saw the pilot on TV (saw it when they first aired it as well).

 

[Solo]

Good lord. This might be the first year I dont pick up a single new show. And I thought last year's new shows were bad (Fringe being the only one I picked up).

 

[trineo_feo]

Well, you can download one video from Ep2 featuring a new song, apart from that....we'll just have to wait 'till 9/9/9

 

[Foliorum Viridum]

Flash Forward is the only one that remotely interests me. Which isn't really a bad thing, since there's more than enough current TV shows starting back up this Autumn to keep me distracted.

 

[sprsk]

I wanna watch Community because it has the black dude from Derrick Comedy.

This and Chevy Chase.

 

[Black-Wind]

. . . Oh shit!

I thought today was the 11th for some reason. 0_o

eh? am i missing something on the cast list for Trauma? seems like a long list of nobodies. i only recognize one person, Reuben Palchuck from Sunshine.

Peter Berg is in there somewhere. He created this and FNL IIRC.

 

[The Librarian]

Stargate Universe for me.

 

[Ashhong]

he did indeed create FNL. he made Trauma???? i was gonna watch anyway, but thats good to know. although its like completely different worlds

 

[gdt]

I don't see them as that different actually. I think it will have the same camera work (Berg also employed it in Hancock, which he directed), and it could easily have the same style. Make it about the characters doing the job. Kinda like FNL is about football players, not necessarily football. I think it could be good if it's more or less like FNL .

Edit: I also hope it'll be arc based like FNL.

 

[EktorPR]

The pilot for GLEE was excellent, so I'm really excited for it.

Flashforward and Community both look interesting, so I might give them a chance.

 

[Decado]

Clips of Stargate Universe were pretty interesting...though the kid could ruin it. Annoyance factor is high. I'm so disappointed Atlantis turned to shit after the firsts few seasons.

 

[Jackson50]

Community is the only show that I am immediately interested in, although I will give V a chance.

 

[Medalion]

The Vampire Diaries... great, a tv series of Twilight pretty much.

 

[Samara]

Watched "Glee" this week and it was amazing. Like really good. I'll keep watching for sure, as long as doesnt drag too much

 

[Hixx]

Not a huge fan of Stargate but Robert Carlyle is pretty ace so will have to watch a few episodes of it.

Edit: I also hope it'll be arc based like FNL.

if thats the case it will have to be way different from how they have been advertising it. the way its shown is just like this action packed emergency show. i have my doubts that it will be so character focused like FNL, but i hope im wrong.

if it is, prepare for viewers to stop watching because its "too boring" and NBC to cancel it =). maybe berg wised up, realized its medical shows that work, and mixed FNL + medicine to get a popular series

 

[Smelly Tramp]

Just Flash Forward for me, and even then i don't see that having good legs. Where can they go after they've figured out the missing time and caught up with the flash forwards? More incidents? That'd get lame pretty fast.

It'll probably be a one season wonder show for me, kind of like Heroes was.

What we really need is a new Breaking Bad. A really original show, not the constant stargates (the new show just sounds like a BSG rip off anyway) or the latest angsty teen vampire shows that have been excreted out of the Hollywood shit machine.

Atleast Futurama is back anyway, that feels quite good.

Breaking Bad was a new Dexter, so what we need is a new Dexter

Spoiler

at least imo

 

[Costanza]

I'm hyped for Caprica more than any other new shows. The pilot was just... wow.

January feels so far away

 

[Smelly Tramp]

What do you mean by new Dexter? I think Breaking Bad is in a different league to Dexter.

Wouldn't mind a "new Dexter" though.

 

[Costanza]

breaking bad was a new WEEDS (it's also 1000x better)

 

[Nemo]

Oh I remember seeing that trailer for FF, awesome can't wait to see what it is! V sounds nice too, never saw the original though

 

[Lafiel]

Peter Berg is in there somewhere. He created this and FNL IIRC.

His name doesn't mean much imo, FNL movie and tv series is the only thing i've liked by him.

 

[eznark]

Wow what an absolutely terrible new lineup. Maybe V can save it.

 

[Beowulf28]

Looks like V, Flashfoward, and NCIS LA for me.

 

[dead souls]

Watched "Glee" this week and it was amazing. Like really good. I'll keep watching for sure, as long as doesnt drag too much

That's all I'm watching out of the shows in the OP. The rest of them look terrible.

 

[FairyD]

Out of all those series the only one that has a chance of making it is NCIS.

 

[anaron]

Glee, Community, V and Flash Forward.

I enjoyed the pilot of Glee a lot and it's following episodes seem to be getting very positive reception so I'm likely to stick with it.

Also really hoping for V to turn out well.
