After a preview-less summer, they're back. I've listed all the new show premieres and some other premieres I'm looking forward to. Since there are so many shows, I don't have many thoughtful comments on them.
How I Met Your Mother - CBS, Monday, September 19, 8:00pm ET
Okay, so maybe we won't learn who the Mother is anytime soon. The show is still funny as hell.
2 Broke Girls - CBS, Monday, September 19, 9:00pm ET
The '2' in the show's title is somewhat worrisome, but the premise sounds promising.
Two and a Half Men - CBS, Monday, September 19, 9:30pm ET
What will the new Two and a Half Men look like? Probably a lot like the old one.
Hawaii Five-0 - CBS, Monday, September 19, 10:00pm ET
Regardless of whether the show resets back to normal procedural mode, Hawaii Five-0 at least has some interesting material to work with.
Castle - ABC, Monday, September 19, 10:00pm ET
Who's ready for another season of will-they-won't-they?
The Playboy Club - NBC, Monday, September 19, 10:00pm ET
The producers have said The Playboy Club is actually about female empowerment. Somehow I doubt that... It reminds me of the statement Tom Brady's people released the other day, clarifying that he meant "drink water and stay hydrated" when he told the fans to "start drinking early."
NCIS - CBS, Tuesday, September 20, 8:00pm ET
Tony is on another secret mission, so I guess I'm interested.
Glee - FOX, Tuesday, September 20, 8:00pm ET
Will Glee rebound after a very uneven sophomore season?
New Girl - FOX, Tuesday, September 20, 9:00pm ET
For those who love Zooey Deschanel in heavy, heavy doses, this is the perfect show. If not, get ready.
Unforgettable - CBS, Tuesday, September 20, 10:00pm ET
CBS has been airing lots of previews for the show and there's one thing that bothers me a lot--the possibility that the show will turn into Poppy Montgomery rattling off a list of facts to a stunned crowd.
Criminal Minds - CBS, Wednesday, September 21, 9:00pm ET
The return of Emily and JJ!
Modern Family - ABC, Wednesday, September 21, 9:00pm ET
Modern Family in the great outdoors should be fun.
CSI - CBS, Wednesday, September 21, 10:00pm ET
CSI takes another turn with a star, this time with Ted Danson.
Revenge - ABC, Wednesday, September 21, 10:00pm ET
Revenge sounds better than Ringer if that means anything. We'll see if the writers take things less seriously.
The Big Bang Theory - CBS, Thursday, September 22, 8:00pm ET
Penny and Raj... lol wut.
Community - NBC, Thursday, September 22, 8:00pm ET
The best comedy on television returns.
Charlie's Angels - ABC, Thursday, September 22, 8:00pm ET
ABC tries to make yet another show succeed at 8 PM on Thursday, and I think it'll work this time around.
Parks and Recreation - NBC, Thursday, September 22, 8:30pm ET
Ron's other ex-wife, also named Tammy, is here. What unspeakable crime did she perpetrate against him?
The Office - NBC, Thursday, September 22, 9:00pm ET
Life in the office after Michael Scott should be interesting.
Person of Interest - CBS, Thursday, September 22, 9:00pm ET
Michael Emerson is always welcome on television, so we'll see how the pans out.
Whitney - NBC, Thursday, September 22, 9:30pm ET
I'm not sure how this show could be interesting at all.
The Mentalist - CBS, Thursday, September 22, 10:00pm ET
After the bombshell season finale, what does The Mentalist have in store? Major props to the writers for turning things around in the third season after a pretty bad second season.
Prime Suspect - NBC, Thursday, September 22, 10:00pm ET
Another British remake hits American television, but I'm not sure the hour-long per week format really works with the premise of the original.
A Gifted Man - CBS, Friday, September 23, 8:00pm ET
Another CBS show about something communicating with a dead person. Hmm...
Supernatural - CW, Friday, September 23, 9:00pm ET
Alert! Wild angel on the loose!
Fringe - FOX, Friday, September 23, 9:00pm ET
After the stunning season three finale, I'm sure everyone is eagerly awaiting the season finale.
