Ten Things: Fall Shows

I'm excited for tons of fall shows that I can't wait to try. Here's some of the top ones. Most of these I haven't seen yet, they're currently awaiting my free time. But they all have promise.

New Girl - I really like Zooey Deschanel and her quirkiness. It sounds a little like My Boys - minus the sports.


Ringer: LOVE this idea and love Sarah Michelle Geller



2 Broke Girls: I really like Kat Dennings - curious about this one.



Hart of Dixie: Adore Rachel Bilson!


Secret Circle: Saw the Pilot of this one - very intriguing


Person of Interest: a Thriller from JJ Abrams - I'll watch just about anything he does.



Grimm: Dark fairy tales mixed with mystery



Once Upon a Time: The modern world and the fairy tale world cross over and are about to collide


Pam Am: set in the 60s - sounds like Mad Men in the air and without the smoking.




Of course, I'm super excited for some old shows:

Castle
Bones
Big Bang Theory (I'm almost caught up)
Nikita
Covert Affairs

Castle (which I LOVE - it makes me Mondays along with 24)
And Chuck, the clever spy comedy
