[tv] Fall 2011
Having a hard time keeping track of shows old and new this season, so a listing we will go. I really didn't want to get into any more new series but my interest got piqued as usual due to cast. As usual, tastes run the route of crime drama and my interest is predominantly actor centric.
SUNDAYS
Homeland Oct 2 (10/9c)
- Damian Lewis has a new series on cable and Morena Baccarin and Mandy Patinkin are there with him. I didn't need any more information than this. The series' only blight is Claire Danes :/
MONDAYS
Terra Nova Sep 26 (8/7c)
- I had liked Jason O'Mara ever since I saw him on the now defunct 2006 crime drama In Justice. That and the promise of a world of dinosaurs also got my attention. Wherever it is they are shooting, the place is absolutely gorgeous *_*
House Oct 3 (9/8c)
- This is here more out of habit than anything. Surprisingly I am still behind on the last season. Much as I love House, they should put this series to bed already.
Castle Sep 19 (10/9c)
- Crime drama has never been this fun before or since. A great break from all the grim crime dramas I seem to gravitate towards.
WEDNESDAYS
Criminal Minds Sep 22 (9/8c)
- One of those grim crime dramas I was talking about. Staying now more for the characters than anything. Three episodes in and the cases have all been boring so far.
Revenge Sep 21 (10/9c)
- Drama and intrigue are not exactly my cup of tea, but Madeleine Stowe proves enough of a lure to drag me into this revenge-filled world of infighting and backstabbing. I doubt this will end well, but still very much rooting for Nick Wechsler's Jack Porter.
THURSDAYS
Person of Interest Sep 22 (9/8c)
- I came for Jim Caviezel and stayed for him and everything else. Loving the one upmanship the two main characters have going so far. My favorite freshman series this season.
The Mentalist Sep 22 (10/9c)
- Staying out of habit on this too. It feels like they don't know what direction to go to with this now. I vote they decide on a conclusion and draw the series to that end. Maybe a concrete goal will revive the series.
Prime Suspect Sep 22 (10/9c)
- Caught this for Maria Bello and she's cool and all, but it's getting increasingly annoying watching the rest of the bigots in her precinct gang up on her and treat her like crap every freaking week, so I'll probably drop this soon. I'm very curious about the original series with Helen Mirren this was based on though.
FRIDAYS
Chuck Oct 28 (8/7c)
- One of the few ongoing shows I'm still interested in, though it's starting to wear as well. I'm a few episodes behind on this so I might just catch up when there's more episodes out.
Grimm Oct 28 (9/8c)
- The last new series that has yet to air that I want to check out. I don't know anyone this time, so I'm interested purely on how they handle the promising premise of "Grimm, descended from a line of supernatural hunters tasked with protecting humanity from deadly encounters with the world's mythological creatures, each described in veiled terms within familiar fairy tale."
