New Show I'm Most Looking Forward To This Fall:
The Ringer
The Vampire Slayer is back in this drama about a woman who, after witnessing a murder, goes on the run, hiding out by assuming the life of her wealthy identical twin sister - only to learn that her sister’s seemingly idyllic life is just as complicated and dangerous as the one she’s trying to leave behind. Sarah Michelle Gellar does double duty as Bridget and her estranged twin, Siobhan. I really really hope it's really really good and a success.
