The new year is upon us and with that comes the end of the winter hiatus of all your favorite shows as well as the premieres of some new ones. To keep track of all the premiere dates, I have put together a calendar of dates for the month of January and February.
Who picked this premiere date? I mean seriously? The show is already getting cancelled can we get some good dates so they at least have a chance to get watched. Why would they program it Nov 22 – Dec 27? Right smack in between the holidays. Ughh. Booo CW.
Fall première dates are coming up and there are too many things to watch. No worries. It was extremely difficult but I have narrowed it down to the 5 shows that you must watch.
1. Brooklyn Nine-Nine (FOX) Premieres Tuesday, September 17 @8:30/7:30c.
I have a thing for André Braugher (Men Of A Certain Age, Gideon’s Crossing). I think he’s absolutely wonderful. So when I saw that this show got picked up by Fox, I was excited. The show is a comedy about is about how members of a Brooklyn squad deal with a new very straight-laced and tightly wound police chief played by Braugher. The comedy for most of the show comes from the interplay between Braugher and the squad’s lead cop, played by Andy Samberg (Saturday Night Live), who just can’t seem to adjust. This show looks hilarious and I have read nothing but good things about it. Samberg had many great moments on SNL so he will bring the funny. I just really want them to let Braugher be great. I need him to be on a show that people give a chance. Hopefully this one is it.

2. The Michael J Fox Show (NBC) Premieres Thursday, September 26 @9/8c.
Michael J. Fox hasn’t been the star of a show since he left Spin City in 2000 because of his Parkinson’s disease. He has done a lot of guest stints on different shows since then; my favorite being his arcs on The Good Wife. It’s nice that now he is returning to television full-time and in something that is really good at, comedy. The new show emulates the actor’s life a bit in that it is about a news anchor at the top of his game who decided to leave his job to spend more time with his family. After being at home for 5 years, his family is ready for him to leave the house and return to work. The cast also includes Betsy Brandt (Breaking Bad) and Wendell Pierce (The Wire, Treme, Suits). I saw part of this pilot in one of my classes last semester and I really liked it so I can’t wait to see the finished product.
The Mindy Project‘s second season doesn’t premiere for another week (Tuesday, September 17th is it’s premiere) but that hasn’t stopped FOX from making the show available to everyone who wants to catch it a little early.
The premiere episode went live today and guest stars James Franco as a new resident OB/GYN who is perfect and everyone loves. He also plays sex therapist for Danny (Chris Messina) and Christina (Chloe Sevigny).
The episode can be found on various outlets like Fox.com, Fox Now, HULU, Fox on Demand, Xbox 360, Samsung, Windows 8, Roku, iTunes, Amazon, Microsoft, Samsung, Vudu and YouTube.
The television premiere of Season 2’s The Mindy Project premieres Tuesday, September 17 at 9:30/8:30c.
Yes can’t wait for this show to be back.
If you have followed this blog for any point of time or know me personally, you know that September is my favorite month of the year. Why? Because one, it’s my birth month (Libras rule) and two, it is the return of fall television. The fact that the main première week always coincides with my birthday is just even sweeter. Below I have the Fall 2013 schedule of all your favorite show première dates as well as the brand new shows that will, sadly, surely be canceled before anyone gets a chance to watch them.
YESSSSS A real promo for Scandal season 3 got released today on Entertainment Weekly. Ohhh It’s gonna be good. Season 3 of Scandal premieres on ABC Thursday, October 3rd.
Just saw the Season 3 Revenge promo trailer and it is EVERYTHING. Wooo I can’t wait. Check it out.
Hopefully this season does not go off the rails like Season 2 did at the beginning. Revenge premieres Sunday, September 29 @ 9/8c on ABC.
BREAKING BAD IS BACK!!!!! The second part of season 5 begins tonight on AMC. I feel like it has been a year since this show was off the air. I knew about this show but never got on it for some idiotic reason. Thank God for me being a student and having winter breaks off because December 2012 is when I finally got it together and watched the show.
For anyone that has waited for this to return, you will not be disappointed. When we last saw them, Hank (Dean Norris), Walt’s DEA brother-in-law, had just stumbled upon a huge clue that made him realize that Walt is Heisenberg; Walt (Bryan Cranston) killed Mike (Jonathan Banks) and had also had all of Gus’ former employees killed in prison. He also paid Jesse (Aaron Paul) all the money he owed him and told Skylar (Anna Gunn) that he retired from the business.
The episode back will not disappoint. I had the pleasure of going to the Los Angeles première about 2 or 3 weeks ago and watching it with the cast (I met Aaron Paul – the nicest guy ever). The episode starts with a small recap of the entire show and then resumes from where it ended with Hank in the bathroom figuring out that Walt Heisenberg. I won’t say anything further about the episode but I’ll just say this – the end of the episode is EVERYTHING.
AMC is showing all the previous season 5 episodes today at 12:30/11:30am leading up to the première of part 2 at 9pm/8c. If you don’t want to wait, the entire series is on Netflix to binge on. Also be sure to catch Talking Bad after the episode airs where the last 8 episodes of the series will be discussed.
