Best new show of the Season

    So my favourite time of year has almost been and gone and most of the new shows are a few weeks in.

    I haven't watched them all just the ones that interested me.

    American Horror Story: Plain weird, interesting I will continue to watch.

    Ringer: Watched the Pilot, nothing interesting there for me.

    Revenge: Watched this because of Emily Van Camp who I liked in brothers and sisters. Okay premise but seriously lacking some polish.

    Whitney: May have gotten picked up but needs a big re-vamp if it's gonna make it past season 1, for me it got too old too quick.

    New Girl: I like it, of course Fox is mistreating it as it seems to do to all shows that don't live up to American Idol, I hope it survives.

    Up All Night: Without Maya Rudolph it would be dead in the water.

    Playboy Club: Shouldn't have gotten picked up, Abysmal, didn't even make it through the Pilot.

    Hart of Dixie: Good premise, Rachel Bilson is okay, the rest of the cast isn't great though and it is lacking in direction. Needs to stop relying on small town cuteness and start getting into a decent storyline.

    My favourite out of those is Hart of Dixie, I know I criticised it but to be honest it's the best of a not too great bunch. A but disappointed this year.

    Try Homeland, Person of Interest and The Secret Circle.
    Along with The New Girl, they're my 4 picks this year.

    Haven't seen it however it has gotten picked up for a full season always good, also it is meant to be a companion show for the vampire diaries so if you like that then you may like The Secret Circle.

    didnt watch playboy club, pan ams pilot was weak as was charlies angels, how to be a gentleman sucked,

    was on the fence with free agents, suburgatory is still on the fence,

    new girl and 2 broke girls are looking good,

    person of interest and boss (going by the pilot) are looking better than the 2 of them

    havent had a chance to watch homeland yet,

    I was surprised it was picked up for a full season tbh, I think they were lucky to get SMG if it was anyone else it wouldn't have made it.

    For me so far I like Revenge, New Girl, Suburgatory, Prime Suspect and Person of Interest


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,987 ✭✭✭squonk


    Well said JP, I'll see your selection and raise you 2 Broke Girls and Up All Night. That sums up my 'Best of the Best' selection.

    New Girl, Suburgatory and Last Man Standing - thought everything else has been pretty bad. The Playboy Club was deadly, but alas the bunnies got eaten by the cancellation bear.

    Homeland is best new show by a mile.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 21,634 ✭✭✭✭Richard Dower


    My fave was The Playboy Club, but got axed....so now it's Revenge, and i like Pan Am but i suspect that'll be axed also. #2 on my fave list is The Secret Circle.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,085 ✭✭✭meoklmrk91


    I will definitely give Homeland a go since so many people like it, plus the Secret Circle a go even though I never got into The Vampire Diaries.
