Great thread ratsky.

I'd list everything I plan on watching, but it would be a ridiculous post. Suffice it to say, by the time the CW shows come back in October I will be absolutely swamped.

Nothing stops this train lazy ambition lacking couch potato.

Quantico - I was scrolling past a bunch of shitty looking procedurals then a woman with a hijab caught my eye. This is something that I've never seen on TV before.
A diverse group of recruits has arrived at the FBI Quantico Base for training. They are the best, the brightest and the most vetted, so it seems impossible that one of them is suspected of masterminding the biggest attack on New York City since 9/11.

I want to say "I'll try everything at least once", which is what I normally try to do, but I actually think that we're pretty close to that being actually impossible to do; we're coming up close to an average of one newly premiering show a day during this period.

There are a few shows I just dropped out of nowhere. Like I should really go back to them and I don't have any problems with picking it back up even after a long hiatus, I just haven't gotten around to them. There really is just too much TV.

Also none of us are Ratsky.

Season 2 of Star Wars Rebels starts on the 14th of October, so you might want to add that to the OP.

But the first 2 episodes, "The Siege Of Lothal" two-parter, have already been shown in July. Not sure how that counts for the purpose of the thread. Disney seems to treat it as a movie event between seasons.

No longer boycotting the Wolfenstein franchise
As always, well done with the thread!

Definites:
The Affair
Black-ish
Brooklyn Nine-Nine
The Daily Show with Trevor Noah
Fargo
Fresh Off the Boat
The Knick
Last Week Tonight with John Oliver
The League
The Leftovers
Man in the High Castle

Transparent

You're The Worst

Will sample, barring awful reviews:
Childhood's End
The Expanse
Flesh and Bone (if it sounds worth subscribing for)
Into the Badlands
Master of None

And maybe I'll hate-watch Homeland again. Or maybe I'll be strong and avoid it.

Also, definitely watching Fukunaga's new film, Beasts of No Nation.

Maybe, just maybe we'll be lucky enough for The Venture Bros to return before year's end...

A great OP Ratsky. It's clear that you've put time and effort into it.

Though this year's crop of new network shows aren't exactly blowing my skirt up I find myself strangely excited for NBC's Blindspot.

I was a big fan of Cinemax/Sky's Strike Back and I'd love to see Sullivan Stapleton score himself a big hit.

Of course, like most of these 'concept' shows on broadcast, the question is can the format sustain itself over twenty (?) plus episodes a season or will it's big flashy idea run out of steam by episode two like....., oh I don't know every high concept show since Lost, The Event I'm definitely looking at you.

Blindspot - looks fun/generic, but Martin Gero (LA Complex creator/showrunner) scripting makes this my dark horse quality TV pick.

Crazy Ex-Girlfriend - Looks fun. Hoping it can hit and maintain a good quality level.

Scream Queens - I don't want to get roped back in to another Glee mess. But it looks like stupid fun. :/

Truth Be Told - �� trash tier. Trailer looked abhorrent.

Hoping Minority Report, Limitless, Quantico and The Player offer some good genre fare. Concerned they will be overly procedural, but we'll see.

All the network comedies look unfunny to me from what I've seen. Life in Pieces looks like a pretentious Modern Family (which I don't care for either) and The Grinder just looked...super dumb.

I'm thinking Truth Be Told, but we'll see. Might be my own opinion of the trailer coloring my speculation of its cancellation prospects, but I think the title won't do it any favors.
Click to expand...

Yeah I think that's on the short list. I'd stick Angel from Hell and Rosewood on that list as well, along with Minority Report. FOX keeps trying sci-fi and keeps cancelling them. Maybe MR will get at least one season like Almost Human did, but if it falters out of the gate I could see them yanking it.

I also think Quantico has an outside shout at being a bomba (no pun intended).

You're the Worst is probably the only show I'll watch as it airs. Any other show I might be interested in I'll watch on a streaming service next year. I mainly watch live Sports and Netflix/Hulu now.

See, I think Rosewood is in trouble just with the name. Whereas Minority Report has some solid name recognition. More than Limitless does, probably. Limitless has too generic of a title to stick in the viewer's memories. I'm actually equally concerned about The Player as I'd be with Quantico. The latter has a generic title but the former has an odd high concept *and* a semi-multicultural cast, which doesn't usually equal success unfortunately. Plus, the series creator has this resume:

The Player (TV Series) (creator) (pre-production)
The Librarians (TV Series) (developed by - 20 episodes, 2014 - 2016) (written by - 5 episodes, 2014 - 2015)

Leverage (TV Series) (59 episodes, 2008 - 2012) (written by - 17 episodes, 2008 - 2012) (story - 1 episode, 2008) (teleplay - 1 episode, 2008)

2007 Transformers (story)

2006 Eureka (TV Series) (teleplay - 1 episode)

2005 Global Frequency (TV Movie)

2004 Catwoman (screenplay)

2003 The Core (written by)

2002 Red Skies (TV Movie) (written by)

2001 American Outlaws (screenplay)

Jackie Chan Adventures (TV Series) (writer - 2 episodes, 2000) (developer - 1 episode, 2001)

- Day of the Dragon (2001) ... (creator)

- Shell Game (2000) ... (writer)

- The Dark Hand (2000) ... (writer)

- Cosby Show
Click to expand...

Which doesn't give me the strongest feelings as to quality. Maybe this will be a hit for him, though. I did like The Core pretty well.

Angel from Hell has a bizarre title and premise and seems destined to be super one-note. We'll see. The trailer I think was plenty for me.

I see everyone making lists and I'm afraid to see how long mine would be.

Does anyone else use http://www.pogdesign.co.uk/cat/ to keep track of all of their shows? I know there's a TV-GAFer that uses it because I got it from their profile but I can't remember who.

I think there is some potential out there and a lot of duds. TV executives are still going through some growing pains as pop culture becomes more fragmented and as cable cord cutters grow older and start becoming umbilical cord cutters.

David Krumholtz stars as Gigi, a 76-year old yenta who lost her beloved husband Harold, but gained a new lease on life thanks to the secret bank account he left her. Armed with millions of dollars and a mile-long bucket list, Gigi is determined to live life to the fullest, and is bringing her trusty male nurse sidekick along for the ride.

Now, season 1 was an interesting surprise from WGN, which others should check out. Hopefully they trimmed the fat from the show, and reworked some of the characters and drama, then the show could be something special. I can't wait for season 2!

So many weird channels these days.

I'll likely watch Scream Queens and Blind Spot, the latter of which is mostly because the chick is hot. I don't expect it to be that good.

I'll continue watching Supernatural, The Leftovers, American Horror Story and TWD, and hopefully catch up to Fargo if I can ever find a marathon. I don't know why I continue to watch American Horror Story, since it seems the only good/watchable season was the first, which was great, but I do.

Top work as always Ratsky

Some good stuff this Autumn. No big hitters, but that only means more room for new shows to make their mark.

Stuff I'll check out;

This Is England '90
River (heard some good things about this)
London Spy
The Last Panthers (again heard promising things)
Trapped (Icelandic Drama but no word on when BBC 4 will air it)
The Last Kingdom (worried it will be the Beeb chasing the Game of Thrones dollar when they should be looking to replicate Rome not GoT).
Boy Meets Girl
The Bridge Series 3

Would add (unsure on when it'll air, if at all in 2015)

Follow The Money (from DR, Danish channel behind 1864 and The Killing) (BBC FOUR)

When a dead body is found in the sea near a wind farm off the coast of Denmark, Mads, the police detective assigned to the investigation, refuses to believe that it is just an accident. The deeper he digs, the more suspicious he becomes of quickly expanding energy company Energen and is drawn into a morass of financial and legal shady dealings...

Follow The Money stars Thomas Bo Larson (Mads), Natalie Madueño Wolfsberg (Claudia), Esben Smed (Nicky) and Nikolaj Lie Kaas (Alexander).

I forgot about Survivor. That's one I've been really looking forward to, because I just got back into watching the series last season.

I'll likely watch The Amazing Race, too.

Amazon's new series starring Ron Perlman, 'Hand of God', is getting pretty awful reviews:

Variety said:
...a thoroughly ill-conceived and unpleasant series.

Roger Ebert .com said:
It looks good, but sadly, that polished exterior hides a filthy, vile interior. “Hand of God” is one the ugliest shows I’ve seen since the television nadir of “Stalker” on CBS, populated with unlikable characters and a tone that downright mocks tragedy, grief, crime and religion.

Entertainment Weekly said:
Hand of God is a confounding, sometimes infuriating, and poorly focused drama, but it’s too interesting to dismiss out of hand.
