Have you all recovered from your New Years partying? If you’re like me, the new year couldn’t come soon enough as many of my favorite shows are coming back on air! With that, I have created a handy dandy premiere schedule that you can view here so you can keep track of everything. However, I figured I’d take the time to highlight some of the shows I’m looking forward to this TV season.
Ah television, the (almost) love of my life. I have spent so much time over the course of my years watching television and this year was no exception. Making this post however was actually quite a struggle given that I’ve actually shaved down the amount of TV I watch since I got to grad school. That and the fact that during the summer, there was only one show worth watching (The Fall) and I caught that way back in May. Anyways, I did manage to come up with a Top 10 TV shows of the season so far list that doesn’t suck so here it is.
It’s back! I mean its been EONS since Scandal graced my television but the addictive series and best drama on TV finally returned with a solid episode that included some great twists, turns and performances. In lieu of doing full recaps (because Thursdays are exhausting) I figured I’d give my brief thoughts on the happenings each week. So here they are.
Fall is a busy time for most people, but especially those who are invested in film and tv shows such as I. Hope springs eternally for the TV networks as they bring back their ratings hits and try and introduce new TV shows, hoping they will be hits as well. I took a gander at the 59+ show slate of fall premieres and decided to pick 10 new and returning tv shows that I’d be most excited to watch. Here’s the list!
Have you all been watching the new season of Breaking Bad? I have literally only seen two episodes of that show because someone who shall remain nameless is making me DVR them. Anyways, I’ve been looking at the conversation surrounding the show and others that focus around anti-heroes and have begun to ponder what exactly is making us all so enthralled with anti-heroes and if it will end sooner than we think.
Television has certainly been in a golden age, with every matter of show and network stepping up their game to present complicated characters, interesting situations and dazzling visual work. The Emmy nominations are set to be announced tomorrow and many of the same shows that we know and love will show up. But instead of doing predictions, I thought it would be more fun to envision what I would vote for if I had an Emmy ballot. This is based on shows/tv movies/miniseries that ran from June 1,2012-May 31st 2013 to comply with the Emmy calendar. Check out my sample ballot!
