New Fall Shows

Got the back-to-school blues? well you're not alone. And although I can't do anything about the dreadful return to that hell they call school, I do know one thing that will cheer you sinners up: the new fall TV shows. Yup it's that time a year again, where TV executives try to pimp out new TV shows trying to garner as many viewers as possible. And as a self-proclaimed TV-aholic I've taken it upon myself to weed out the craptastic shows that will barely last one season before disappearing to TV heaven- or hell- and the ones that have the potential to make it into my weekly TV schedule. So grab the alcoholic beverage of your choice and relax as I take you through the most interesting programs gracing your TV this fall.

2 Broke Girls
Network: CBS/CityTV (Canada)
Starring: Kat Dennings, Beth Behrs
Premiere: September 19, 2011 9:30pm
Plot: Basically like the totally obvious title says this sitcom is about 2 broke, and totally opposite, girls living in New York City working as waitresses in a grimy diner trying to make ends meet.
Appeal: This show looks like it'll be good for a few laughs. It's running on the same track as Bridesmaids; with the whole comedic women, and hopefully it's just as successful. And Kat Dennings, from Nick and Nora's infinite Playlist fame, seems comical. It's the perfect combination of cute and funny. Plus it's created by the producers of Sex and the City, which can't hurt-unless you count Sex and the City 2.

New Girl
Network: Fox, CityTV
Starring: Zooey Deschanel, Damon Wayans Jr, Max Greenfield.
Premiere: September 20, 2011, 9pm
Plot: After a sudden break-up Jessica Day (Deschanel) decides to move in with three guys who try and help her through her difficult and awkward life.
Appeal: Again this show looks like it'll provide some good laughs on those boring Tuesday nights. It's like a perfect little romantic comedy. Plus how could you resist Zooey Deschanel acting abosolutly adorable? and there's a Dirty Dancing reference, that's it I'm sold.

Suburgatory:
Network: ABC, CityTV
Starring: Jane Levy, Carly Chaiken, Cheryl Hines
Premiere: September 28, 2011 8:30pm
Plot: A single father moves his teenage daughter from Manhatten where she learns about suburban life.
Appeal: This shows looks second rate, but it's got bitchy teenagers and plastic parents and looks like a crappier Mean Girls, so that's good enough for me.
