    I came accross these and some are worth a episode or two just to see if they are any good


    Big in Japan

    Reality goes abroad in this ABC project that sends American contestants overseas to compete in challenges in a foreign culture.

    i fugure americans making fools of themselves might be good but then again i saidnthe same thing when i heard about are you smarter than a 5th grader


    Bad Mother's Handbook

    Based on a novel by Kate Long, this ABC comedy tells the tale of a 32-year-old woman who cares for her 16-year-old daughter and her 48-year-old mother.


    Dosent sound too great but ill check it out because all i know its its a comedy and i dont even know what type of humour - it could be funny


    Boundaries

    Boundaries tells the story of a failing cable-access psychologist who finds a new lease on life after being forced to take work as a mobile notary. Written by Jill Soloway (Six Feet Under); executive produced by Soloway, Bryan Burk, and J.J. Abrams.

    I never used to watch something because of who directed it or who was in it but ive got it into my head that any thing by Ron D Morre, Joss Wheldon or J.J Abrams is worth a shot.


    Finnegan

    The heart of this new drama lies within the tough-as-nails female detective who leads L.A.P.D.'s organized crime and vice unit.

    No real info on what the show is about could be terrible could be decent - dont even know what style of show it is


    Never Better

    A regular dad struggles to be the best husband and father he can be, but his attempts to be the good guy are often hilariously ill-advised.

    Im really on the hunt for a good comedy this year so i will give most of them a chance


    Section 8

    A group of everyday people who possess uncanny neurological abnormalities have been recruited to work for a secret government agency. The series is produced by ABC Studios, in association with BermanBraun. (The term 'section 8' refers to a clause often used for discharge from the U.S. Army by reason of mental issues.)

    I dont know, could be interesting, id be interested to see what its about could be interesting but id like to know what the shoe means by neurological abnormalities


    The Unusuals

    Also on the police beat, The Unusuals comes from the pen of Noah Hawley (Bones). It's the story of a New York police precinct. Rescue Me vet Peter Tolan is the executive producer, and like that show, The Unusuals will blend drama with comedy.

    Meh but i think ill give the show a chance or atleast read up on it as it gets closer to airing.- its a 45 min comedy and most great comedys are 20 mins because im drawing a black on other 45 min comedys


    This Might Hurt

    Doctor's offices are full of laughs, and this pilot will focus on the antics of a variety of medical professionals, among them a pediatrician, an internist and an OB-GYN. A single-cam comedy from Fox, this series will take cues from NBC's Scrubs.

    Scrubs is funny, dont know if this will be but i will give it a shot as well.


    My Best Friend's Girl

    Two best friends who own a bike shop find themselves in an awkward situation when one of them starts dating the other's ex-wife

    Im going to give most of the comedys a chance, i mean all i know is that is a comedy because its in the comedy section i dont know what type of comedy it will be.


    My Own Worst Enemy

    Henry Spivey and Edward Albright suddenly become aware that they are the same person. One, a regular working dad living in the suburbs with a normal family. The other, an efficient and deadly spy. These two men, previously unaware of each other's existence due to a case of multiple personality disorder, now realize they share and have shared the same body for their entire lives. The two...

    I dont know... sounds meh but it could be good depends on how good the acting is i suppose


    Zip

    This new comedy follows a con-artist dad and his kids as they seek "the good life" in Beverly Hills.

    Worth checking it out its a comedy and it could be funny


    Starting Under

    Ken Davitian--better known as the other naked dude in the Borat movie--stars with Bernie Mac in this comedy about a man who, after a divorce, finds himself living with and working for his son.
    A Bernie Mac comedy featuring Ken Davitian of the Borat fame, this series is about a boy and his son who live and work together at a marketing firm


    Again i dont know could be interesting but ill watch because i want to make sure i give all the funnys a chance


    Saint of Circumstance

    A man in the throes of a mid-life crisis quits his going-nowhere office job to become a night shift paramedic. Adam Braff penned the project; brother Zach Braff is set to direct and executive produce.

    Didnt sound too inerestinc until it mentioned zach braff was doing it - he did a really good movie didnt he? the name escapes me but it was good wasent it?


    Prison Break: Cherry Hill

    The awesome name of this new series pretty much says it all: it's a Prison Break spinoff set in an all-female detention center.

    Well looks like it is going to happen after all ill watch but im not expecting much


    Mothballs


    Drawn Together creators Matt Silverstein and Dave Jeser bring viewers this new animated comedy about a dysfunctional family that runs a nursing home


    This sounds like one of the best so far, loved AD


    Hole in the Wall

    Don't miss this US version of an amazing Japanese game show in which contestants must become pawns in a human game of Tetris by quickly maneuvering their bodies through strangely-shaped holes in a moving wall.

    If its people trying to be tetris pieces then ill watch a episode just to see how bad it is


    Courtroom K

    This courtroom drama is a dark comedic offering in the vein of House. It puts the lives of a judge, a prosecutor and a public defender center stage.

    House?


    Boldly Going Nowhere

    Three of the masterminds behind It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia join forces on this single-camera comedy about the daily operations aboard an intergalactic spaceship manned by an adventurous crew and a rogue captain.

    SciFi Comedy?

    Although i cant think of any great single camera shows?
