In Front of the TV… Always

First thing I want to mention, I didn’t know that CBS and CW are sister company… Geesh, looks like I will be learning more and more about this TV company while blogging about TV series and TV shows huh?

Anyway, this blog post is about the TV Series to watch out for this coming new season… It’s saddens me to watch all those season finale from our favorite shows (LOST, Heroes, 24, Smallville etc…) but it is also exciting to know that there are new shows to watch out for…

This list is from CBS/CW…

Dramas at CBS include:

• the untitled “NCIS” spin-off, which is a go;
• “Back,” about a man missing and presumed dead on Sept. 11 who shows up eight years later;
• “The Eastmans,” about a family of doctors;
• “The Good Wife,” about a female defense attorney married to a politician, with complications;
• “House Rules,” about the freshman class of politicians in Washington;
• “A Marriage,” from Ed Zwick and Marshall Herskovitz about, surprise, a good marriage;
• “Miami Trauma,” a medical series;
• “Three Rivers,” about doctors, donors and patients, told from those perspectives;
• “U.S. Attorney,” a procedural about federal prosecutors; and
• “Washington Field,” about various federal law enforcement agents tackling worldwide issues.

The network has already picked up “The Bridge,” a drama from Canada.

CW dramas include

• a remake of “Melrose Place”;
• a spin-off of “Gossip Girl”; “The Beautiful Life,” about models in New York (mostly male);
• “The Body Politic,” about young interns in Washington;
• “The Vampire Diaries” about, well, vampire brothers.

CBS comedies include

• “Accidentally on Purpose,” starring Jenna Elfman and based on the book by San Francisco writer Mary Pols about a movie critic who accidentally gets pregnant by a younger man;
• “Ace in the Hole” stars Adam Carolla as a driving instructor;
• “At Last,” about a couple that finally get married, then things go sideways;
• “The Big D,” a culture-clash family sitcom set in Dallas;
• “The Fish Tank,” about a teenager who gets the house to himself;
• “Happiness Isn’t Everything,” a meddling family comedy from Jim Vallely and Mitch Hurwitz of “Arrested Development,” starring Richard Dreyfuss, Mary Steenburgen and Jason Biggs;
• “The Karenskys,” another dysfunctional family sitcom from Linwood Boomer (“Malcolm in the Middle”) starring Annie Potts; and
• “Waiting to Die,” about two slackers perfectly happy with their lives, from Hurwitz.

There are no comedies from the CW.

That’s a lot of shows to look forward to huh? And take note that this is only from CBS and CW only.. We’ll try and get the list from FOX, abc and others.

Stay tuned!
