The New Fall Lineup: We Can Barely Contain Ourselves!

What will come of our favorite TV couple!?

After three entire months of reruns, and crappy MTV-I-need-a-girlfriend-and-a-life reality shows, I am more than ready for the new fall lineup, which starts this week!

14

In addition to our old favorites whose finales left us on the edge of our couches with mouths open and ice cream dripping on our PJs, there are a slew of new shows that are totally worth tuning into this fall.

We know it’s hard to get back into your nightly TV schedules, so we complied a guide for the must-see fall TV!

Our Returning favorites:

Gossip Girl (The CW): Monday , September 14, 8pm

Do I even have to recap? Jenny takes over as queen bee; Blair, Dan, and Vanessa head off to NYU (where conniving Georgina comes to stir up more trouble); and Serena is headed off to Europe to find her father? Let’s just leave it at OMFG, shall we?

Grey’s Anatomy (ABC): Thursday, September 24th, 8pm, ABC

So unfortunately, no one can keep a secret these days and word leaked over the summer that it is in fact George (T.R. Knight) who will be leaving the cast. But that doesn’t change the fact that viewers have an emotion packed premiere, which features a funeral bound to be heart wrenching for us die-hard fans.

Heroes (NBC): Monday, September 21, 8 pm

Who isn’t obsessed with this show? It has taken over Facebook statuses all over the internet. The season finale left us on the edge with a new killer in town, Nathan dead and Sylar and Nathan are one! In the premiere we will see this unfold, as well as Matt and Janice getting another chance at raising their super-power baby.

The Office (NBC): Thursday, September 17, 9 pm

If you haven’t been a fan, it’s not too late to start. The show is super easy to get into, and once your hooked you’ll have plans for the next 3 weekends catching up on old seasons. There were hints in the season finale of a possible pregnancy and we hear Michael’s love interest Holly isn’t out of the picture.

90210 (The CW): Tuesday, September 8, 8 pm

It’s not going to be on the Emmy ballot anytime soon, but it’s become one of our guilty pleasures. In the finale we were left wondering who has caught Annie drunk driving and running someone off the road. Plus the season premiere is full of new hookups, what more could we ask for?

ANTM (The CW): Wednesday, September 9, 8 pm

Here’s to another season of beautiful aspiring models, apartment catfights, and hoping one screws up enough to induce a Girl-no-you-didn’t-let-me-take-my-jewelry-off Tyra smack down.

New Shows!

Melrose Place (The CW): Tuesday, September 8, 9 pm

Sure it’s like a fusion of GG and 90210 in a grown up world, but it’s another one of those shows that will pop up everywhere, so none of us want to be out of the loop. Plus, who doesn’t want to see Ashley Simpson nosedive in the acting arena, or, less likely, surprise us with actually having an ounce of talent? I know I’ll be watching.

The Beautiful Life (The CW): Wednesday, September 16, 9 pm

All you OC fans get ready; Mischa Barton is back in a new drama set around a group of models sharing a home in NYC.

The Vampire Diaries (The CW): Thursday September 10, 8 pm

This show needs no introduction or, really, a plot line at all now that we think about it. Give us a gorgeous, blood-sucking star and we’re happy. But even better for viewers, the acting and storyline look promising. After the cyclone that was Twilight, this is bound to be a hit.

Glee (Fox): Wednesday, September 16, 8 pm

We were already given a glimpse of the show with its first episode in the spring, and we liked what we saw. A lot. A more sophisticated High School Musical with catchy tunes and there are already a slew of guest stars set to join the season including Eve and Kristen Chenoweth.

Modern Family (ABC): Wednesday, September 23, 9 pm

Who couldn’t use a little AL Bundy in their lives? This comedy has been deemed “hilarious” by critics and has that fresh, off-the-cuff office feel. We’re definitely giving it a chance!

What other series premieres are you guys dying to tune into this month?

    I think the CW is going to have all the "guilty pleasure" shows that I am going to watch. I am already addicted to Gossip Girl and Supernatural. I'm really interested in seeing how Melrose place and The Vampire Diaries turn out. Maybe now they can get back into the swing of things when the WB had all the guilty pleasure shows that I watched. Like Roswell and Buffy. Oh how I miss those!

    ashlee simpson has acted on a tv show before so we've seen what she can do already (she was on 7th heaven).

    i'm super excited for all of these shows except for heroes! i'm also excited for the new shows flashforward, bored to death, accidentally on purpose, the good wife, the middle, cougar town, community and v!

    not to mention my old standbys: the amazing race, desperate housewives, brothers & sisters, how i met your mother, THE BIG BANG THEORY (!), the new adventures of old christine, gary unmarried, 30 rock, ugly betty and southland!

    yeah, i'm kind of a tv nerd :)

    All of these shows fucking suck!!!! Are you girls insane? When are actual good shows going to start being shown???? The fall lineup sucks. I am not going to watch one fucking show on this list and I know most people won't either. This list sucks.

    The line up is great although I have just a few favorites due to my hectic schedule. I cannot wait to watch Greys…and yes cry my eyes out! Kim your opinion is appreciated. But your foul mouth is not! girl speak your mind not your foul gut!

    Anyway Brianna, good job, there is so many choices but Ugly Betty & Greys are my picks!!!!

    Why is there always one person commenting who feels the need to be a really mean person just because they have a differing opinion? Jeez.

    In addition to a couple shows already listed, I'm really excited about Castle (ABC, Sep. 21 @ 10), It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia (FX, Sep. 17 @ 10) and Dexter (Showtime, Sep. 27 @ 9) coming back.

    It just sucks that I can't get Showtime at school to watch Dexter, so I haven't quite figured out how to watch it yet.

    I can't wait for Desperate Housewives and It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia!

    Terry Hatcher is still the prettiest and sexiest actress in Desperate Housewives*,.
