The Fall TV Season: Are You Looking Forward to Anything?
I can hardly believe the season for my favorite summer TV show – Drop Dead Diva – is nearly over. I’ve read this season will end with the “biggest cliffhanger ever.” Not sure what that will be, but despite my dislike of parts of the last episode (Fred caught Stacy kissing someone else) I’ll definitely be watching the last few shows. However, I also find myself thinking about the upcoming fall TV season.
As a late arrival to Bones, I’ve been doing some catching up this summer. I was very disappointed to learn that the new season doesn’t start until November 3, two long months away. However, there are some shows, both scripted and reality (yes, still a fan of many of them) that start much sooner.
I can’t wait for the premier of Castle on Monday, September 19. Last season ended on a real cliffhanger, and the previews look pretty interesting. Will Beckett live? Of course she will; I refuse to believe otherwise. Did Kate hear Castle tell her he loves her? Who will replace Captain Montgomery? Will Martha find new love?
I’m also eager for the premier of Body of Proof the next night on Tuesday, September 20. I really grew to enjoy this mid-season replacement. In particular, I liked Dana Delaney and Jeri Ryan. In the last shows, Jeri Ryan’s character began an affair with Dana Delaney’s ex-husband. Will that storyline be continued this season? And when will we learn more about the intriguing character played by Peter Dunlop?
As usual, I’ll be watching Survivor (September 14th) and The Amazing Race (September 25th) when they premier. I’m not thrilled that Survivor is again bringing back two “all star” members to mix with the new cast, and I’ll be shocked if either Coach or Ozzie wins this time. The cast for The Amazing Race looks interesting; I just hope they spend some time in Europe again this season.
Are you looking forward to any fall TV premiers? And if you watch Drop Dead Diva, what did you think of last week’s episode?

hey great blog man, i think you hav put your point across excellently cheers
I think this is one of the most significant info for me. And i am glad reading your article. But want to remark on few general things, The web site style is great, the articles is really great : D. Good job, cheers”-“Shopping Site“
I was suggested this web site by my cousin. I’m not sure whether this post is written by him as nobody else know such detailed about my problem. You’re amazing! Thanks!-“-“Online Deal“
Hey, you used to write magnificent, but the last several posts have been kinda boring… I miss your super writings. Past few posts are just a bit out of track! come on!”To be content with what one has is the greatest and truest of riches.” by Cicero.
Oops! Forgot to mention Top Shot which straddles summer and fall. An aside: Can’t we find any great women markspersons? (How do you like that for politically correct? LOL)
Castle, definitely Castle! Gotta love Nathan Fillion.
Okay, also nerd time: I’m awaiting the new Jeopardy! season.
I’m waving a sad farewell to True Blood, Covert Affairs (although I think it’s coming back soon!), Royal Pains, and Eureka. I like more of the summer series than the fall/spring ones.
Sigh. Can’t it always be summer?!? Guess that’s why I live in Californina.
l&o svu sad with stabler

Tonight one of my favorites starts up again – “Sons of Anarchy”. I’m also looking forward to the returns of “The Big Bang” and “Supernatural”. It will be interesting to see how “The Office” works now that Steve Carrell is gone (sniff!). I am excited to see the new show “New Girl” with Zooey Deschanel – it looks really cute.
Nothing nicer than snuggling up on the couch with a great show when the weather turns cool – I love this time of the year.
I haven’t heard of Harry’s law, Missie. I guess that makes sense if it’s on at the same time as Castle. I’ll have to try and record an episode to see what I think.
You’re right about real relationships not being perfect. Guess we’ll have to see how the writers handle the Stacy/Fred and Stacy/jane conflicts.
I’m a D3 devotee, as well — I really miss it when it’s not on and sometimes find myself thinking “What would Jane do?” or “What would Deb do?” or “What would Stacy do?” ;-)
I, too, am disappointed in Stacy and feel for poor, dear, sweet Fred — my eyes teared up about as much as his did — but I like that they’re not having everything perfect between Stacy and Fred. Relationships are complicated, and Stacy and Fred are bound to have some complications, just as Stacy and Jane/Deb are bound to have conflict. It’s how the conflicts are faced and dealt with that define the characters (both in the literary sense of the show and, in real life, how it reflects the character of the people involved).
We’re big “Castle” fans in this house — we’ve gotten Mom hooked on it, as well, and both my sisters-in-law watch it. Actually, it was my sisters-in-law who first turned us on to it. And “Body of Proof” is worming it’s way into my heart, too — if nothing else, I love their bags and shoes!! ;-)
Mom is in love with “Harry’s Law” (with Kathy Bates). It conflicts with “Castle,” so I haven’t been able to see it as much, but it seems promising, too (it’s from the creators of “Ally McBeal” and “Boston Legal”).
We enjoy “Bones,” as well. We’re also big “NCIS” fans, ‘though we don’t have the same fervor for NCIS: LA (although we do watch it).
We’re really looking forward to “Psych” coming back (in October, I think it is) — we love the interplay of Gus and Shawn, and the silly wit of the dialogue.
Shanna, I haven’t caught any of Hawaii Five-O. I’ve seen the commercials for it and the settings and people do look gorgeous. I’m going to have to check it out.
I’m really looking forward to Hawaii Five-O. I love this show, I don’t if its the beautiful setting or the beautiful people but I like it.
