Wow Awake was canceled?? I could see Alcatraz, The River, which ever get canceled but not this show and not this early. It had some stiff competition too to be honest airing on Thurs.
Missing was canceled too. Hmm.

Netflix needs to pick this up.

I can see why Touch got renewed, people in the Americas love connecting the pieces and Jack Bauer. Also they don’t care about Jake’s universal powers as much as they want to see him help people.
Person of Interest is pure badass. I don’t get the machine though, what unique identifier did the terrorists have that the machine was able to pick them up?
Anyone watching Veep on HBO? Julia Louis Dreyfuss’(Elaine from Seinfeld) new show? Pretty damn funny, savage one-liners all around.
ya thats it, love that show
I’m really disappointed Alcatraz got canned. I loved that show.

Damn straight! I’m just sad there’s only 2 more episodes of the season left.
I don’t think it’s any 1 thing. All they’ve said is that it connects the dots, see patterns that humans miss, so it’s some crazy algorithm that sees into the future.
Just started watching Madmen. I’m only on episode 2, not sure what the hype is all about (I’m actually bored). Only the lead character is interesting, not quite figured out what everyone else’s purpose is, but most of them don’t seem likeable (But maybe I’m just spoilt, I’ll watch the rest of the season).
i’m currently on season 2 episode 17 of HOUSE. so far it’s been good but not great. every episode is almost the same premise. does it get better? how long till olivia wilde comes in?!?!!?!?!
Posting this here, from the Mad Men thread:
The Celebrity Apprentice
Spoiler
Final 2:
Final 4:
The new season of** Falling Skies** premieres Sunday, June 17 on TNT.

FOX’s new show, The Following sounds really good. It comes across a gimmicky Criminal Minds - whether or not it works is obviously up in the air, but the premise is enough to get me to check it out:

[LEFT]THE FBI estimates there are currently over 300 active serial killers in the United States. What would happen if these killers had a way of communicating and connecting with each other? What if they were able to work together and form alliances across the country? What if one brilliant psychotic serial killer was able to bring them all together and activate a following? Welcome to THE FOLLOWING, the terrifying new thriller from creator/executive producer Kevin Williamson (“The Vampire Diaries,” “Dawson’s Creek,” the “Scream” franchise). When notorious serial killer JOE CARROLL (James Purefoy, “Rome”) escapes from death row and embarks on a new killing spree, the FBI calls former agent RYAN HARDY (Emmy-nominated actor Kevin Bacon, “X-Men: First Class”) to consult on the case. Having since withdrawn from the public eye, Hardy was responsible for Carroll’s capture nine years ago, after Carroll murdered 14 female students on the Virginia college campus where he taught literature. Hardy is a walking textbook of all-things Carroll. He knows him better than anyone; he is perhaps Carroll’s only psychological and intellectual match. But the Ryan Hardy who broke the Carroll case years ago isn’t the same man today. Wounded both physically and mentally by his previous pursuit of this serial killer, it’s been a long time since Hardy has been in the field. This investigation is his redemption, his call to action. In contrast to nine years ago, Hardy isn’t calling the shots on this case. He works closely with an FBI team, which includes all-business and tough-as-nails JENNIFER MASON (Jeananne Goossen, “The Vow,” ALCATRAZ) and young, razor-sharp MIKE WESTON (Shawn Ashmore, “X-Men”). [/LEFT]
[LEFT]The team considers Hardy to be more of a liability than an asset. But Hardy proves his worth when he uncovers that Carroll was covertly communicating with a network of killers in the outside world. It quickly becomes obvious that he has more planned than just a prison escape, and there’s no telling how many additional killers are out there. The FBI’s investigation leads Hardy to CLAIRE MATTHEWS (Natalie Zea, “Justified”), Carroll’s ex-wife and mother of the criminal’s 10-year-old son, JOEY (newcomer Kyle Catlett). Close during Hardy’s initial investigation, Hardy turns to Claire for insight into Carroll’s next move. The tension rises when Carroll’s accomplices kidnap his intended last victim from nine years ago. Hardy becomes ever more determined to end Carroll’s game when he realizes that this psychopath intends to finish what he started. The thriller will follow Hardy and the FBI as they are challenged with the ever-growing web of murder around them, masterminded by the devious Carroll, who dreams of writing a novel with Hardy as his protagonist. The reinvigorated Hardy will get a second chance to capture Carroll, as he’s faced with not one but a cult of serial killers. [/LEFT]
Their other new shows… ehhh - The Mob Doctor seems alright, it’s just I can guess like 3-4 storylines/turns for it already.

NBC announced it’s lineup - only two good shows that I’m interested in: Do No Harm (kinda like that Christian Slater show a few years back) and Infamous.
Do No Harm
[LEFT]"[/LEFT][LEFT]Do No Harm [/LEFT] [LEFT]" – Dr. Jason Cole (Steven Pasquale, “Rescue Me”) is a highly respected neurosurgeon who has it all – a lucrative career, confident charm, the gift of compassion. But he also has a deep, dark secret. One morning when he wakes up disoriented in a wrecked hotel room amidst several near-naked women he’s never seen before, he knows one thing: it’s happening again. Every night at the same hour, something inside Jason changes, leaving him almost unrecognizable – seductive, devious, borderline sociopathic. This new man is his dangerous alternate personality who goes by the name of ‘Ian Price.’ For years he’s battled Ian, keeping him in check with a powerful experimental sedative. But now his – their – body has developed a resistance to the serum, setting Ian free once again. And to make matters worse, after being suppressed for so long, Ian’s hell-bent on taking revenge on his oppressor. With everyone Jason cares about at risk – patients, friends, coworkers and even the woman he loves – he’s got to stop Ian once and for all. Will they find some common ground, or will they bring each other down? Hell hath no fury like an alter ego scorned. Also starring are Alana De La Garza (“Law & Order”), Mousa Kraish (“Superbad”), Michael Esper (“A Beautiful Mind”), Ruta Gedmintas (“The Borgias”) and Phylicia Rashad (“The Cosby Show”). “Do No Harm” is produced by Universal Television and Traugott Company. The executive producer/writer is David Schulner (“Desperate Housewives,” “The Event”). Peter Traugott (“Ringer”) and Rachel Kaplan (“Ringer”) also are executive producers. Michael Mayer (NBC’s “Smash”) is the co-executive producer and director. [/LEFT]
Infamous
[LEFT]"[/LEFT][LEFT]Infamous [/LEFT] [LEFT]" – When wealthy socialite and notorious party girl Vivian Bowers is found dead of an overdose, no one is really surprised. The heiress to the Bowers pharmaceutical empire has been tabloid fodder for years: wild, pretty, privileged… and now dead at the age of 32. But for FBI agent Will Moreno (Laz Alonso, “Avatar”), things don’t add up with this suspicious dynasty. Convinced that the troubled girl’s death was a homicide, he has a clever plan to get to the truth. Her name is Detective Joanna Locasto (Meagan Good, “Think Like a Man”). Twenty years ago, she was Vivian’s best friend, having grown up in the Bowers’ home. And when she appears at Vivian’s funeral, the family re-embraces her and no one is the wiser. Joanna quickly begins to uncover dark secrets and clues about why Vivian’s life was very much in danger. At the same time, she rekindles an old romantic relationship and rediscovers the allure of the luxurious lifestyle she once knew. She’s about to see once again just how the other half lives… and dies. Also starring are Victor Garber (“Alias”), Tate Donovan (“Damages”), Katherine La Nasa (“Alfie”), Neil Jackson (“Quantum of Solace”) and Ella Rae Peck (“Gossip Girl”). “Infamous” comes from executive producer/writer Liz Heldens (“Friday Night Lights”) and director Peter Horton (“Grey’s Anatomy,” “Dirty Sexy Money”). Gail Berman, Lloyd Braun and Gene Stein are also executive producers. The series is from Universal Television and BermanBraun. [/LEFT]
A Gifted Man had potential, but I was hoping the ghost would help the Doc out. But nope and so it had to go.
Screw Falling Skies
This looks awesome

It does look awesome, but Falling Skies is one of my favorite shows right now - I can’t go as far as even compare this to that until I get a few episodes in.
The sword fighting is a nice touch though.
