Anyone who knows me well...knows that when Fall show season starts- I am totally unreachable after 7pm. I love my TV Shows and I get really serious about them. Missing a show can cause an argument and being interrupted during one can cause a complete melt down on my end (I'm serious-just ask my husband or Mom). Anyway I was talking to a friend yesterday about Scandal starting back up and how anxious we are to see where the Olivia Pope story will take us this season (hopefully more than 12-13 episodes since Kerry isn't pregnant this season). So I decided I would do a listing of all the shows I'm excited to see back and new shows that peaked my interest.
Gotham - I think Fox is totally on to something taking the fictional city of Gotham that we are all so familiar with from the Batman Comic book series and turning it into a rare look into the life of all the characters before they officially become the well-known characters - Batman, Poison Ivy, Cat-woman and the Penguin. I'm also a huge Jada Pinkett-Smith fan so seeing her in this was a selling point for me to watch anyway.
Scandal - Now there are some people like my mother - who will just refuse to watch this show anymore because they are tired of the silly faces Olivia makes or the un-dying story of Olivia and Fitz but I can't wait to see what this season brings us in the world of SCANDAL. Since Columbus Short doesn't know what to do with success and will not be returning to the series (total bummer cause I liked his character), I'm really interested in seeing where the story will take us with everyone dealing with his (possible) death, Mama Pope running around free, Olivia and Fitz, Olivia and Jake and the Dad.
Homeland - OK so anyone who watches this show knows that Brody was supposedly killed at the end of last season. I just don't believe it since Carrie was pregnant with Brody's child and I don't know if I believe that with only a few seasons in the story of Carrie & Brody is just dead in the water. Plus I feel like though we watched him hang to death - a few things just made me feel like we may see him again- in the future. A girl can hope right?
The Following - So I started watching this on Netflix and became instantly addicted. I missed all of season 2 because I hadn't finished season 1 and hate watching something when I don't know what's going on but I heard it has been renewed for a season 3. No word yet on when that season will get a premiere date though.
How to Get Away with Murder -
Law & Order SVU - I have been keeping up with this for years. Nothing new. I'm excited that Olivia has finally been given a chance to foster the little boy we saw all last season that was abandoned but I wish they would have kept her relationship with Brian going. It sucks that her relationships are always so far and few.
The Mindy Project - I've loved this show from the beginning and so excited it was re-newed. First episode of the season premiered on Tuesday and so I'm looking forward to seeing where Danny and Mindy's relationship goes. If you've been a fan from the beginning - you too have been waiting for them two to get together.
Black*ish - So I'm not sure what this show is about but according to the description says it's about a family who lives in suburbia and deal with black/white racial problems. Hummmm....Not sure if this will be on very long.
Sleepy Hollow - I was a fan from the beginning and lost touch with the show after the middle of the first season but I'm catching up to tune back in,. Plus, I love anything that is dark, scary and gloomy so this was right up my alley.

THE WALKING DEAD - This show is the icing on my cake every single year! Loyal fan since the beginning - everything stops when this show starts up again on October 12th. No calls, no emails, no work - nothing will stop me from tuning in to see what this show is going to bring in the very very long awaited premiere of Season 5. When last season ended - it was not looking good for Rick and the crew but his final words have carried us all into a mind of suspenseful anxiousness awaiting this season -
"They're gonna feel pretty stupid when they find out...they're screwing with the wrong people."...BAMM (drops the mic & fades to black). This is of course how I imagined it last season, very dramtic and in Beyonce (baby bump fashion on MTV).
Those words have run my life since last March. LAST MARCH- I can't even believe it's been that long. Life obviously didn't stop but my heart drops every time a season ends because from then on out - it's a disappointing waiting game. OCTOBER 12TH, PEOPLE - TUNE IN! Haven't watched the show ever or missed some episodes or seasons - catch up on Netflix.
LET'S GO FALL!!!! I've missed you :)
