So GAF, which new show you're going to watch if any? Or are you just going to stick with returning old shows like Fringe, Supernatural, etc?

Flashforward and V I'll definetly be checking out. Eastwick looks like it could be fun, I'll probably have a look at the first ep or so of that.

Other than that I'm just looking forward to the fuckton of stuff that's coming back. Starting with Dollhouse veeeeerry soon, then I think it's Dexter after that.

I need to find a list....


Edit: Checked out the Community trailer, looks like it could be alright I might give that a look too.

Edit some more: Ooooooo apparenlty it's Dollhouse, House, Big Bang Theory, How I met your mother and Dexter all starting back this month. So. Much. Win.

Community is the only one out of that list that catches my eye - is it supposed to be good?

Maybe V, maybe FlashForward
probably Vampire Diaries

You know, I actually kinda hate series premiers - it's so hard to tell what shows will actually be good. I avoided LOST for like a year because I thought the premise was stupid.

FlashForward and V both for me.
Another NCIS? Fucking hell those shows are garbage.

"Those shows?"

There's only one. And it's pretty awesome.

But yeah, looking forward to Community, NCIS: LA, and I'll check out FlashForward and V, but I'm not expecting much.

V and Flashforward for sure. I'm also going to check out Glee.

I'll wait on Community. Commercials for it have been more annoying than funny.

For me, Caprica (not listed--but it's not really a Fall show), V and Flash Forward sounds interesting. Community might be interesting considering I work at a community college so I know exactly how they are.

An NCIS without Abby is a garbage idea.

Looking forward to Community though, will also look into FlashForward.

I'll try V, FlashForward, Eastwick and maybe Melrose Place, but I see most of these turning out dull. I guess the only show I know I'll see through from start to finish this season will be Fringe S2! :p

Will drop pants for Sony.
There is only ONE NCIS, which BTW is an AWESOME show.

All of those new shows does not even look good. That Vampire show has Twilight and 90120 written all over it.

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

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

Looks like ABC have nailed what I like this time round

Still miss Journeyman... fuck you NBC

I watched the first episode on FaceBook and say yes. It is.

It is also the only show I am interested in. The rest are returning season 2 favorites like Better Off Ted and Parks and Recreation.

Very skeptical about V and Flashforward, but I'll give them a chance.

Community looks like a decent timewaster though. I'll definitely tune into that one as well.

Mystery Team (Movie) looks pretty good too, he's probably the only person I can think of that has made a legitimate transition from Youtube to Hollywood.

I'm pretty excited about FlashForward because of Goyer and the cast (mainly Fiennes). Community looks amusing and hopefully V doesn't become overwrought (only memory of the old series is the
birth
).

I saw the pilot for Glee. My friend liked it a lot because it was cheesy, but I'm not really interested. The teacher was likable, though.

Flasforward, V, Community, and Eastwick seem like they could be good, though the latter's casting kind of gives away that a character will be eating it on Eureka soon.

Looking forward to Day One in March.

Not sure about NCIS LA. I love NCIS, but that 2 part ep they did to introduce the LA crew didn't work for me. Maybe they'll grow into it but there wasn't any of the great chemistry the NCIS crew has going.

And no Abby (though her character will apparently be making a few cameo's on LA).

That's how bad they are, that show just runs into the CSI shit in my head. The only difference is the hot woman.

I can't stand CSI and it's spinoffs, but I like NCIS. Law and Order shows are also usually good in small does, but NCIS is great. Cast plays so well off each other.

The guy on Community is from the Butt Dialing commercial. I knew those two were destined for great things :lol
