What are we watching this Fall, y'all?
Heroes - I have finally decided to give it the boot. (Yes, I mean it this time! ) Instead I shall follow up on my threat to watch A&E's Intervention if both continue to air on Monday nights.
Lost - I can't believe I'm saying this but I will be tuning in again this year. (Yeah, it's not coming in time for fall but I'm counting it, anyway. ) Last year was such an improvement over prior seasons that I can't wait to see what they do with it next.
Okay, so much for the returning stuff. What about the new?
FlashForward - I read the book this is based on so I have to watch it. I want to see how TPTB handle the whole everybody-gets-a-glimpse-of-the-future thing. I can guess how they could screw it up but I have to tune in to see whether they do.
----
Other than that one thing, I have no idea what other new non-reality TV programs might be worth watching. Please tell me about some!

Re: What are we watching this Fall, y'all?
OMG I was just about to start a Top Chef thread!
So far I am watching Top Chef and Mad Men. They've both been back about 2 or 3 weeks already.
I will also be watching Heroes and Lost. The former with some trepidation, the latter with much anticipation. OMG! The Incident! Juliet! The Nuke!
Dollhouse is still in, obvs.
30 Rock and The Office are my sitcoms.
I don't have my eye on any new shows so far.
I am continuing my moratorium on reality shows ( Top Chef excepted), and I haven't had the stomach for The Daily Show or The Colbert Report since all this death panel shit started.
I think that's it for me? Oh yeah! House.
Edit: And football.

I just unsubscribed from the Biggest Loser recap RSS feed from TWoP. This breaks my heart a lot more than it did for American Idol for some reason. I'll miss you, Jillian!

Re: What are we watching this Fall, y'all?
God, how could I have forgotten Dollhouse? (May Whedon forgive me.)
I just need to know if every weeknight will have a show I must catch. Also, I hope none of the good stuff comes on Wednesday night; I'll be in skool!
Anyway, off to check those links ...

Re: What are we watching this Fall, y'all?
I'll be watching college football on Saturdays....commercial television only.
I don't know of much returning or anything new that has particularly caught my interest enough for me to assure that I will watch.

Re: What are we watching this Fall, y'all?
Start that Top Chef thread, Ensign and I'll be there with bells on.
Ditto on Dollhouse, The Office, 30 Rock, plus my old Law & Order stalwarts, despite their increasing suckitude. I'm looking forward to seeing the first full season of Lie To Me.
For new shows I'm watching Glee and Community. For reality, Project Runway and the afore mentioned Top Chef, but my number one favorite -- which I'm already watching because PBS doesn't do seasons like network tv -- is History Detectives. I'm not sure it counts as reality, though. It doesn't have some retarded contest or anything.
eta So You Think Can Dance is doing a fall season for the first time. I'm all over that.

Re: What are we watching this Fall, y'all?
I forgot Hell's Kitchen. I don't know if it would count as a "fall" show, since it's on right now, but there are a number of contestants left.
I hope Kitchen Nightmares is coming back. I like seeing Ramsay helping these families, after yelling at the morons on HK.

Re: What are we watching this Fall, y'all?
I'm curious to check out Community because I love Joel McHale on The Soup. Other than that Amazing Race, Biggest Loser and the Office are my shows. I told Malloch that it's the perfect time of year to be getting more pregnant and have an excuse to sit on my ass in front of the t.v.

Re: What are we watching this Fall, y'all?
Already watching History Detectives, great show. I will be watching House this season. I missed most of it last season and didn't know that what's his name had killed himself until last nights rerun where they mentioned it. I'd like to check out Fast Forward too.

Wow, you're like the one person who didn't get spoiled for it. They announced it the morning before it aired on like Good Morning America or some shit.

Whoa, dude, with the exception of the SyFy channel, this could be most of my list. I would add House and Leverage and possibly Glee.

But I did get spoiled because I haven't seen the episode where it actually happened.

I recommend Eureka with little reservation. You can even "try before you buy" so to speak because it's available through Hulu. It's silly and a bit quirky but it has good character progressions. Don't try to take it serious and it'll reward you.
Warehouse 13 is trying something similar but is having some trouble in its first season. I think it's good enough to keep watching, giving it room to grow and find itself. If you remember, and liked, the TV series of Friday the 13th you'll easily recognize the general theme of the idea - albeit with more of a science fantasy twist rather than horror.

Re: What are we watching this Fall, y'all?
So far
Dexter
Lie to Me
Dollhouse
So You Think You can Dance
Top Chef
Brothers and Sisters
I enjoyed the previous incarnations of V, so may catch the new one. Glee has gotten a lot of press so will probably try it.
Grey's Anatomy jumped the shark some time ago, but I watched last season anyway and it sucked. Off my list this year. I don't have time for even my planned line up.
I also watch a lot of HGTV and NOVA and some history and science shows if they look interesting.
