Upfronts Are Over! Here’s How My Fall 2016-2017 TV Schedule is Shaping Up!

This schedule includes: ABCCBS, The CWFox, & NBC

This schedule does not include Syfy, USA, TNT, AMC, FX, FXX, BBC America, Freeform, HBO, Showtime, etc…

For those new to the blog, I plan to watch the Pilot episode of all of the new shows (in CAPS) below. After the Pilot viewing, some shows will be automatic rejects but most I will hold onto for a couple of episodes before I make a final decision as I know that pilots aren’t really a great representations of a show as a whole. Then, very few I will add to my schedule for the entire first season’s run.

For the returning shows, if you’re wondering if I really watch all of these shows, the answer is yes. A handful of these I am behind on, most of which I’ll be caught up on by the fall. A handful, like Law & Order SVU for instance I only watch if there’s a certain guest star or subject matter I’m interested in viewing. Otherwise, I’m caught up on the majority of these shows and tweet about, FB, and/or review them quite often. For TV reviews, click here.

The new shows I am most excited for:
ABC: The dramas, Designated Survivor and Time After Time
The CW: Both dramas, Riverdale and Frequency, and the rom-com, No Tomorrow
CBS: Doubt
NBC: The dramas, Timeless, Midnight Texas, and This Is Us as well as the comedies, The Good Place and Marlon
Fox: The dramas, 24:Legacy, and APB as well as the comedy, Making History

Of the above shows, I am most excited for Designated Survivor, No Tomorrow, Timeless, The Good Place, and 24:Legacy.
