Fall TV Is Here!

Howdy! It's my favorite TV time of year—the fall TV season!

Unfortunately, I'm not ready to discuss it. Yes, I've picked most of what I'm going to watch, but no, I don' t have time to write about it this week. And I'm not quite finished with my preparations.

So let me just tell you what's premiering this week (stuff that I watch—not everything), and I'll try to get a good blog post in next week:

• Bones, 9/16. This is a returning show. It left me cold last year, with the way it ended, but it sounds like I will be rewarded for coming back this season.
• Sleepy Hollow, 9/16. This is a new show. At first, I was all "Sleepy Hollow"? How can they make a show about that? But the preview made it look very intriguing, so I'm excited to try it out.
• Brooklyn Nine Nine, 9/17. This is a new show that has great potential. It starts Andy Samberg (from Saturday Night Live, Lonely Island and D*** in a Box fame) as an awesome cop who's nevertheless a slacker/prankster and Andre Braugher (Homicide, Last Resort, lots of other heavy dramas) as his new, by-the-book captain. Sound familiar? Sure. There are tons of shows and movies that pair a free-wheeler with a rule-follower. But what I've seen and read make this show look hilarious, and I can't wait to watch the first episode.

Full premiere calendar—along with previews of the two new shows I mentioned above—can be found here:

And don't forget the Emmys next Sunday!

Love Talk to you next week.
