I'm loving Gotham and Jane The Virgin. The Transporter has had some great chase scenes, but the lead was miscast.

I know American Horror Story isn't new, but the stories are. I'm getting lukewarm on it, myself.

I'm in for the Season on Gotham, the Flash, Jane the Virgin and The Affair.

The Affair is quite good.

The Flash by a wide margin.

Top 3 this Fall are The Affair, AHS and Gracepoint. Gotham and The Transporter are queued up on the DVR. Not watching The Flash (though probably should be).

I dig Gotham because of the concept, but I haven't seen any episodes since the pilot.

Honestly, my favorite new show of the season is Scorpion. It's really a lot of fun.

I think The Affair has been pretty good so far. I don't recognize most of the other shows, as stopped watching ABC, CBS, NBC, CW or FOX years ago (except for sports).

The only two I've been watching are GOTHAM and GRACEPOINT...and the latter is such a carbon copy of the better original version, I'm basically just watching it to see what changes are being made (answer: not many).

These are new shows I'm up to date with:

Love Jane the Virgin. That and The Flash are my two absolute favorites.

Scorpion is also really fun. Not listed, NCIS New Orleans has also been entertaining. I like the cases and having Scott Bakula as the lead. I like Stalker because I'm a big fan of Maggie Q, but it's a Stalker of the Week procedural and I can see how it doesn't get much notice here.

I like and watch Gotham, but I don't think it's the best. It's slowly getting better.

I saw three episodes of Gotham and How to Get Away... I'll probably try to catch back up with Gotham, but it wasn't grabbing me.

I liked the first episode of The Affair but don't have Showtime.

The only new drama I'm keeping up with is Scorpion.

Re: Fall 2014: What New Dramas Are You Liking?

I'm pretty bored with most of the new shows.

I like The Affair, especially since this last week they got away from the "he sees/she sees" duplication of events that the first couple of episodes had.

And I can't believe I'm saying this, but I find The Mysteries of Laura interesting and funny, especially the horndog husband.

I'm trying to like Gotham, but it's just a little too camp and the characters aren't compelling enough.

Jane the Virgin feels like I've already seen this before.

And How to Get Away With Murder needs to ramp up the craziness. Things are happening too slowly, especially if they expect people to wait a whole season to finally see what this murder is all about.

Quit on everything but The Flash and Gotham.

Constantine is only one left and Friday is make or break for me. I am afraid every episode will be the same with him speaking a foreign tongue to a cgi demon at the end of every episode.

The Flash by far, though I will give Z Nation credit for surpassing my low expectations. They've done interesting things with Gotham. I don't think it's hitting on every cylinder yet, but I've already seen subtle improvements in its first seven episodes. I could imagine it being a good series by the end of season one.

I'm liking Gotham & Flash so far. Scorpion too for a bit of mindless fun.
The pilot for Constantine impressed me so that may be another, depending on how the next few episodes go.

Gotham and Flash. I watch a few of the others like Scorpion and Z Nation, but frankly I don't care much if they don't get picked up or not.

I'm really enjoying all 4 of the dramas I gave a whirl on: The Affair, Flash, Gotham, and Forever.

How To Get Away With Murder is still keeping my attention.

Scorpion to a lesser extent, though for different reasons. (The show is fast moving enough, that it feels like an hour goes by very quickly).

Everything else I was watching, seemed to have fallen by the wayside. It's time to move on when I'm "stockpiling" too many episodes of a show, and don't have much motivation to watch through them.
