Fall 2011 Premiere Dates

Here it is folks, your 2011 Fall Premiere Dates. Took the initiative and compiled with shows that I think interest the majority of the people in this forum. I also have times included because I see there are many potential DVR conflicts ahead. If there is anything that I forgot, please let me know, but I think I covered the majority of what is coming up this Fall. I tried to stay away from reality shows unless it's competition based.

If you don't see a new or veteran scripted show on this list, chances are it's being held until midseason (ex. 30 Rock, Awake)

Also, for all the new series, I tried to highlight/name a notable actor/actress or notable producer.

Where Is the league

DJariya

It's there. October 6

Gizmo

Maybe BOLD Series Premieres? At least with Season, people have their DVR already set. With Series, they would need to remember to do it.

DJariya

Done

Better?

Gizmo

As always, totally awesome job.

DVR will be packed this year...

Thrush

My money is on Free Agents as the first new series that gets cancelled.

Fist of Doom

Great job, DJariya.

I'm really hoping Grimm or Once Upon a Time turn out to be good. None of the new comedies look hopeful.

JasonF

I got a new DVR over the summer.

ATX

mayn, the only new show(s) im watching is terra nova, new girl, and person of interest

new scifi shows scare me, i just feel like t nova is gonna be some bullshit, hope i'm wrong though

DJariya

Updated:

I added the shows (both new and returning) that won't be returning until midseason, which means January or Spring 2012. In case you were wondering why a certain show wasn't on the list. Dates for all those shows are TBA.

superdeluxe

Wow just realized that fx's thursday nights are turning into the must see comedy hours

DJariya

FYI, a few return dates for some USA shows:

Covert Affairs: November 1

Burn Notice: November 3

White Collar: January 2012

shadowhawk2020

Cannot wait for Fringe

DJariya

Updated.

I added the premiere date for Sanctuary for the hoards of fans who can't wait here. Plus, I added a few other SyFy shows and a miniseries premiering in December.

DJariya

TNT just announced some return dates for shows going into their summer finales soon. Also the premiere date for Southland.

Leverage: Sunday November 27th

The Closer: Monday November 28th at 9pm

Rizzoli and Isles: Monday November 28th at 10pm

Southland: January 17, 2012 at 10pm

Gizmo

IIRC, Cougar Town is coming back in November.

DJariya

Minor update. I Hate My Teenage Daughter with Jaime Pressly got pushed back 1 week to November 30th.

whotony

Does anyone publish a list of shows that aRe put up onto onDemand?
Down to one dvr this year so I need to be choosy on what's recorded.

Gizmo

My DVR is packed.

I decided to DVR Persons of Interest. First CBS Show I've watched in years. Will likely remove from my DVR once it conflicts with something else.

DJariya

Just an FYI, if you have Hulu Plus and have any episodes from FOX, NBC and ABC shows still unwatched from last season, you need to watch them ASAP. They all expire before the season premieres.

countingcrow

The Ultimate Fighter (Spike TV) premieres on September 21st.

Easy

Good job! I've been very busy lately but this thread allowed me to at least get shows recorded. Much appreciated.

whotony

Is there a thread for Unforgettable, I couldn't find one?

DJariya

Yes, Just posted one. Thanks. I did see it last night and posted a few thoughts and made it a season thread.

Also update, I posted the premiere date for Top Chef: Texas in November.
