2011 NBC FALL PREVIEW SHOW

If you're like me and have a hard time watching anything that isn't scheduled in your DVR then you might have missed this program. NBC aired a special that showed sneak peeks of their new shows. The Fall Preview is hosted by Whitney Cummings, star/creator of the new NBC sitcom, Whitney. I'm familiar with Whitney as she is a regular on the Chelsea Lately roundtable.

Some of the shows you'll get a peek at are:
- The Sing-Off (Season premiere Sept 19th at 8pm)
- The Playboy Club (Series premiere Sept 19th at 10pm)
- Up All Night (Series preview Sept 14th at 10pm
- Free Agents (Series preview Sept 14th at 10:30pm)
- Whitney (Series premiere Sept 22 at 9:30pm)
- Prime Suspect (Series premiere Sept 22nd at 10pm)
- Grimm (Series premiere Oct 21st at 9pm)
- Smash (Series premiere Feb 2012)



As a musical theatre geek, former aspiring Broadway actress, Smash looks right up my alley! I'm also looking forward to Up All Night, Whitney, Grimm, Free Agents and The Playboy Club. Guess it's time to set my DVR.

In the comments below, let us know what shows you are looking forward to.

NBC has a fun printable fall schedule here.

What We're Watching Tonight - Tuesday, Sep 13th

Tonight the Fall 2011 season starts on the CW and NBC!

CW: At 8pm the new season of 90210 is kicked off. At 9 the series premiere of Ringer airs. This is one of the new shows I've been looking forward to. In case you haven't heard about it here is the synopsis:

Bridget is six months sober and starting to turn her life around when she is the sole witness to a professional hit. Despite the assurances of her FBI protector, Agent Victor Machado, Bridget knows her life is on the line. She flees to New York, telling no one, not even her Narcotics Anonymous sponsor, Malcolm. In New York, Bridget reunites with her estranged twin, Siobhan. Wealthy, pampered and married to the strikingly handsome Andrew Martin, Siobhan lives what appears to be a fairy tale life – a life where no one knows that Bridget exists. The sisters seem to be mending their frayed relationship, until Siobhan disappears overboard during a boat trip, and Bridget makes the split decision to take on her sister's identity. She discovers shocking secrets, not only about her sister and her marriage, but also about Siobhan's best friend, Gemma, and Gemma's husband, Henry. And when someone tries to kill Bridget in her sister's penthouse, she realizes she is no safer as Siobhan than she is as herself.

Sarah Michelle Geller (Buffy the Vampire Slayer) returns to tv in the roles of Bridget and Siobhan in this new series.

Here is a preview of the series to get you excited for the premiere tonight!

Clip of the Day: Happy Endings

I was looking for a little pick me up this afternoon to make it through Monday and decided that clips from ABC's Happy Endings would do the trick. This show quickly became a favorite when it started airing late last season. You can read my love about it in a previous post here.

This looks to be a clip from the new season. Brad joins Penny in the excitement of her becoming a homeowner!

TV Geek Out: New Girl


Thanks to Klout and FOX I was able to view the pilot for New Girl last month. I'm a fan of Zooey Deshanel so I was excited to see it.  The show centers around Jess, a girl who is recovering from a break up and moves in with 3 guys in an apartment listing she found on the Internet. Her offbeat, girly attitude really changes up the guys' lives.  I enjoyed the pilot. It wasn't completely strong, but I think it has potential. I will be adding this show to the DVR for sure!

You can check out the pilot now too! It's available as a free download on iTunes.

Here's a promo. I think not only will I be making up my own theme songs now, but I'll also start doing that cartoon thing with my glasses!



New Girl premieres on FOX on September 20 at 9pm.
