What new shows ae you most looking forward to this year?

I'm looking forward to Alcatraz on Monday. Looks like it could be a decent show (hopefully). What other new shows are coming out that look promising? There really seems to be nothing on right now that interests me and I need something new!

Awake would be my answer if it were anywhere on the schedule, so I'll go ahead and echo everyone else by answering Alcatraz.

According to Wikipedia, the show will premiere in March. Hopefully thats true, it looks great.

I'm also looking forward to The River (Feb 7) and Touch (March 19)

/\ Yeah, Powers. I read that they are about to reshoot some of the pilot, and it will probably be on the air late-summer, or so.

Re: What new shows ae you most looking forward to this year?

Honestly, I looked at my Premiere dates list and it's slim pickings as far as new dramas go.

My list:

Alcatraz (FOX)
Touch (FOX): The Pilot actually premieres January 25th.
Luck (HBO): Already saw the Pilot in the December preview and it was good enough for me to watch the next 8 weeks.
The River (ABC): Only an 8 episode series
Lost Girl (SyFy)

I can't say I'm looking forward to it, but I will watch Smash on NBC. I like the cast and have been a fan of Kat McPhee since American Idol.

And C'Mon guys

Missing (ABC): Ashley Judd and Sean Bean on a serialized weekly TV show. Doesn't air until March though.

it's only an 8 episode series or an 8 episode first season?

From what I've heard the 8 episodes will tell the complete story, but the series will be in contention for another season.

According to a Deadline article last month FX has put "Powers" on the back-burner as they debat if its worth the money to continue.

Oh I forgot.

Magic City on Starz. Jeffrey Dean Morgan and Danny Huston. It's a 1950's Period drama and I have Starz right now for Spartacus when it premieres in a few weeks, but I will hang on to it for this as well. It looks pretty good.

Same here, but since that's nowhere to be found then it's Alcatraz and Touch. If either is any good, I'm dumping my un-watched Terra Nova episodes. If both are decent then Glee is getting the boot too.

Re: What new shows ae you most looking forward to this year?

Awake
The River
Alcatraz

I might check out a few more, but those 3 are the only ones I look forward to.

Touch looks very generic and uninteresting and I'm not giving Tim Kring anymore chances.
