We recently asked which NBC Shows and which FOX Shows are you most looking forward to (You can still vote in those polls). Now it's the turn of ABC now that we have seen all the trailers etc.
You can vote for 2 shows. Let us know in the comments who you voted for and why?


666 Park Avenue and How To Live With Your Parents.
ReplyDelete666 and Nashville based on the casts
ReplyDelete666 Park Avenue and Last Resort for me.
ReplyDelete666 Park Avenue and Neighbors
ReplyDelete666 Park Avenue !
ReplyDeleteLast Resort is my most anticipated show on ABC. 666 Park Avenue looks interesting as well.
ReplyDeleteRed Widow and will check out Zero Hour
ReplyDelete666 Park Avenue and Nashville! Also Mistresses, but we could only vote for 2.
ReplyDelete666 Park Avenue is the only one I'm looking forward to, tbh.
ReplyDeleteLast resort and Zero Hour, although 666 Park Avenue might end up being better...
ReplyDelete666 and how to live with your parents
ReplyDeleteI'm not specifically looking forward to any of these programs. There are a few that I'm willing to check out but none of these shows are a "must see" for me.
ReplyDeleteSorry, nothing.
ReplyDeleteNashville really, and only for Connie Britton
ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to Last Resort and Zero Hour..
ReplyDeleteNot excited about any I guess....
ReplyDeleteZero Hour and Last Resort are two I plan to try for a few episodes but I do not have high hopes.
666 Park Avenue and Red Widow are two I may check out the premiers, but neither looks good to me despite liking the genre or actors etc.
None of the sitcoms look watchable.
Worst crop of new shows for any network this year....
Last Resort by far (for tons of reasons), and also Nashville (for Connie Britton).
ReplyDeleteI was positively surprised by Red Widow, it might end up being good, but ABC ordered only 8 episodes, it's not a procedural and it's for midseason : there's 90% chance it gets canned, maybe it's the new Missing.
Zero Hour feels like a Da Vinci Code TV series. I didn't like the movie and it had a great cast, a good writer (Akiva Goldsman - yep, the same who's on Fringe), a good director and a big budget : why should I watch the TV show which won't have any element better than the film ? Addison Timlin ? Yep, she is a good motivation (hey, I'm weak). Seriously, I may try the pilot but I can't say I'm looking forward to it.
I like Terry O'Quinn like everyone else here but 666 Park Ave just looked really cheap. Not everything that has any sort of connection to Lost is gold, guys. I for one had my share of haunted houses with American Horror Story. It seems like the exact same thing, except that people are literally sucked into the building (with crappy CGI). 666 may not be as tacky but at least Murphy could be edgy on FX, and "edgy" isn't exactly a popular word at ABC, so all we'll have is dark hallways and Terry O'Quinn is in "I give suspicious looks" mode. Yep, I like you John Locke but that is not enough for me (and the "from the producers of Gossip Girl and Pretty Little Liars" isn't really what I would call good publicity).
1/ Last Resort.
2/ Nashville.
3/ Red Widow.
4/ Zero Hour.
5/ 666 Park Ave.
6/ How to Live with your Parents (it wasn't great, but it was the least bad among comedies).
I'm not even going to rank the rest. I would never, ever watch Mistresses, Family Tools, Malibu Country or Neighbors (boy, that one was beyond crappy, wasn't it ? Damn). The trailers were awful.
Let's face it. There are no obvious hits from any of the networks so far this upfront season. Last year I could point to at least a few shows (New Girl, Suburgatory) and say they're no-brainers - they'll easily catch on. I can't do that this year. I haven't come across any program, comedy or drama, from any network that I just know will make it past its first season.
ReplyDeleteIs there a place where all the trailers for each network are grouped together, by network?
ReplyDelete666 Park Ave. & Last Resort
ReplyDeleteNo, sorry, just click on the shows via the network menu at the top. You can then find the trailer(s)
ReplyDeleteThat's ok. I'm just being lazy. :") Thank you for replying so quickly!
ReplyDeleteHa, no worries :-)
ReplyDeleteTrue.
ReplyDeleteI was not as high on New girl (I hated it at first sight) or Suburgatory (I grew to like it quite a bit), but I knew Person of Interest and Homeland would be hits. If I recall there were a handful of others I thought would be solid too.
This year the only network that has shows I am certain will be around the following year is the CW. I think Arrow is a lock for renewal and odds are in Revolution's favor too.
I don't know about Revolution. NBC has such a dismal track record with genre shows and sprawling, ambitious premises that I'm quite skeptical. Not only has NBC given us The Cape, Persons Unknown, and The Event but I still remember Day One which went from a series order to a limited series to a TV movie to not being aired at all.
ReplyDeleteI voted for Last Resort and Red Widow (+666 park ave)
ReplyDeleteI am more than happy if Red Widow turns into "the new Missing".....
ReplyDeleteMissing is exactly what I thought it would be, a solidly acted Action/ Thriller serialized mini-series. I can enjoy a short run series with an entertaining premise that is serialized... Red Widow seems to fit that description.
The odd thing about the shows this upcoming season is that they are a lot of serialized shows, but very few sound good to me. I love serials, but not about mistresses or country singers or party submarines.
Oh yes. Day one looked so interesting. Still never managed to get to the bottom of why it was canned
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure Revolution will be great or a "hit", but on NBC the bar is low! XD
ReplyDeleteI think that if it pulls in decent ratings and then generates and maintains some fan buzz they will renew it.
If any show's fans know how to generate buzz it's Kripke and Supernatural fans...
Oh BTW...
ReplyDeleteCongrats on barely sneaking into Champion's League play!
That had to be a rough day waiting to see how it all played out!
Well, for what it's worth, I hope NBC gets itself a hit or two. A rising tide lifts all boats and there are other existing shows on NBC that I'd like to see continue to prosper.
ReplyDeleteLast Resort and Zero Hour.
ReplyDelete666 Park Avenue and Last Resort.
ReplyDeleteAfter seeing the results so far....yeah...I really have a soft spot for a few of the outliers. :") Ah well. I'll just be resigned to enjoy the few eps that air before they're inevitably canceled b/c I'm the only one watching... :P
ReplyDelete666 Park Ave., Red Widow, How to live with your Parents, Nashville, Mistresses
ReplyDeletei wanted Devious Maids!!!! :( especially after i saw Carmen (Rosalyn Sanchez) in the Desperate Housewives Finale!!! WHYY ABC WHYYYYY
ReplyDelete666 Park Avenue, Mistresses, Nashville and Red Widow for me.
ReplyDelete666, Zero Hour and Last Resort with a possible for How to Live with your Parents
ReplyDeleteI really wanted Devious Maids but am really looking foward to Nashville and maybe Mistress
ReplyDeleteThe comedies all look god awful this year. But I'll be spending my Sunday nights on ABC with ONCE UPON A TIME, REVENGE and 666 PARK AVE
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure about this Fall group of shows so far. I think I'll be sticking with my old faves. Sunday nights, I'm only watching Once Upon A Time, as I did this year.
ReplyDeleteMalibu Country because it's Reba and Zero Hour for the historical mystery and Anthony Edwards. 666 Park Avenue would be my next choice. I will probably give Last Resort and Nashville a chance too.
ReplyDeleteDo have to congratulate ABC for what surely will be the worst trailer for a new show this season. The Neighbors trailer was horrendous. Other networks are going to have to try really hard to top that one.
surprisingly none, Might change my mind when they start advertising them but for now none.
ReplyDeleteHonestly? None of the above. I'm sorry.
ReplyDeleteNothing thrilling
ReplyDeleteI'll give a try to Last ressort. Original concept and written by Shawn Ryan.
I think Last resort will be most interesting.
ReplyDelete666 Park Avenue
ReplyDelete666!
ReplyDeleteif I have to choose 1 in each, drama: zero hour; comedy: how to live with your parents (for the rest of your life)
ReplyDelete666 park Ave & Last Resort. Easy choice, not really interested in any of the other shows, although I might also try Zero Hour
ReplyDeleteHow to Live with Your Parents and 666 Park Avenue (also last resort if I could vote for more than 2)
ReplyDeleteDefinitely 666 Park Avenue, Last Resort & Zero Hour.
ReplyDeleteMaybe Nashville.
MISTRESSES! ♥
ReplyDeleteMistresses and 666 Park Avenue
ReplyDeleteHow To Live With Your Parents
