Trailerrific: New Fall TV Shows

September 15th, 2013

It’s that awesome time of the year again when our beloved TV shows return back to our screens and we get introduced to a bunch of lovely potential new addictions. There are a ton of new shows this year and as always it’s going to be interesting to see which ones survive and which ones don’t. I’ve highlighted only the shows that I’m going to attempt to watch, but there are quite some others that will also premiere this month.

Agents of Shield

I’m so excited for this! I am wondering just how much Agents of Shield will overlap with and refer to the upcoming movies, but I can’t wait to see how it all turns out. Plus it’s got a kickass character called Melinda…

Premiere date: Tuesday 24th of September on ABC

Almost Human

There aren’t that many good scifi shows on TV and I love the look of Almost Human. It reminds me a bit of Total Recall 2070, but visually looks much better. Fingers crossed the story is good and not just a murder-a-week type show.

Premiere date: Monday 4th of November on Fox

The Blacklist

After one of the FBI’s most wanted fugitives (James Spader) surrenders in person at FBI headquarters, he claims he wants to work together with the FBI to take down the world’s most dangerous criminals and terrorists, but will only talk to a rookie FBI profiler… The setup is intriguing and I’m guessing it will go down the “can we trust this guy” route for at least the first season.

Premiere date: Monday 23rd of September on NBC

The Michael J Fox Show

Yay, Michael J Fox is back on TV and in his own show! This looks hilarious and I think it’s going to be awesome. Want to bet that he gets nominated for the Emmy’s and Golden Globes next year?

Premiere date: Thursday 26th of September on NBC

The Crazy Ones

I’m not convinced by this trailer yet, but I’m willing to try it out, purely for the combination of Robin Williams and Sarah Michelle Gellar.

Premiere date: Thursday 26th of September on CBS

The Originals

I still need to finish the last season of The Vampire Diaries, but I’ve always loved the characters that this spinoff will be revolving around. Klaus has always been more evil than likeable though, and I’m curious to see if he can carry this show.

Premiere date: Thursday 3rd of October on The CW, moves to Tuesdays after that

Intelligence

I’m cheating a bit with this one here, cause Intelligence is only going to air mid season. I love the look of it though, despite having to throw a healthy dose of suspension of disbelief at it.

Premiere date: Monday 24th of February on CBS
