With the new line up anything jumping out as a must watch?
I hate Two and a Half Men but I've got to admit in a day and age where every detail is leaked online it's kind of refreshing not to know anything about this premier so I'll watch it.
Fox has a show "The New Girl" that looks like it might be funny. FX has a show called American Horror Story that looks decent. I'm a fan of several FX shows so I have high hopes.
Beyond that it's premiers of existing shows I'm looking forward to. Dexter, The Walking Dead, Supernatural, Sons of Anarchy (been out a couple of weeks).
Does anyone watch Alphas on SyFy? I'm liking that show more each week.

Castle, Two and Half Men & one other that I can't remember. And since I'm still at the hospital with my mom I won't get to watch them anyway.

How I Met Your Mother, Big Bang Theory, Walking Dead, Dexter, Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes...
...I think that's it. I'm not a big TV watcher.

Castle, Big Bang Theory and Chuck! I'm still behind on Chuck, though...
Also, watched the New Girl premiere and I'll have to watch another episode or two to see if I will continue watching through the season. So far I give it 3.5-4/5 stars.

I'll check out American Horror Story when it premieres, but that's pretty much my only new show this year.

Chuck lost a lot of steam after season 3.
Castle, Walking Dead... the hockey season?
#7

Castle, The Walking Dead, Parenthood (don't judge me!), Hell on Wheels, and I might try American Horror story. All this goes along with The Daily Show/Colbert Report every Mon-Thurs. I think that's more than enough, really.

How I Met Your Mother is going to bring out huge Barney/Robin vs. Barney/Nora debates among my RL friends. I don't give a flying shit who the mother is anymore, but the Barney thing is very intriguing to me. Also excited for Castle, but only because Nathan Fillion is awesome.

Am I the only person here still watching Dexter? I can't wait for that to start up again. And Walking Dead and Community. That's really all I 'm excited for for now.
Nevermind, OP mentioned Dexter too.

I've only seen 2 seasons of Dexter. Love it, but they only had up to season 2 streaming Netflix.
Be prepared to power through a weak season 3. I almost gave up on it. I was marathon-watching the DVDs, and the 2nd or third disc of season 3 sat unwatched for a long time. But if you make it through, season 4 is good again. Added at: 14:38
After the Always Sunny premier, I'me really excited for the rest of that season. Also, the League (although the season 2 finale wasn't good at all).
I'm more excited for some of the shows coming up later in the year: Mad Men and Venture Brothers.

It's Always Sunny was great. I couldn't quit laughing just looking at Zach. Season 4 of Dexter is one of the best seasons on television. Season 5 had its moments but had a hard act to follow. Season 6 looks great (from what I've seen). I dropped The League. I enjoyed season 1 but watch way too much TV and cut back. That was one of the casualties.

Playboy Club lost me in the first five minutes.
New girl kills the head of the Chicago mob in her first week?

Playboy Club is a hilarious joke. It is literally the worst show to hit networks in years.
Sons of Anarchy needs to wrap itself up. It's beginning to cycle (not intended, don't wreck this thread).
It's Always Sunny could run for a million years and I wouldn't get sick of it. Fat Mac is the best thing an actor has done for a show in forever.

I don't watch TV but this is what I view online that premiers on TV that I think are interesting:
Walking Dead (Seriously do I need to explain this at this point?) Dexter (Goes without saying. Easily one of the best shows I've ever seen for obvious reasons) Pawn Stars (I'm not a fan of reality TV but some shows have good chemistry. The show is a little scripted but I LOVE to hear the histories of the stuff that's brought in and the family that own the store have a great banter chemistry) Tanked (Love aquariums, and like Pawn Stars it has a great cast chemistry. MUCH less scripted and very inventive.) Auction Hunters (Some don't like this show because they only show the "good" hauls, personally I'd find it terribly dull to see them by 4 units and they all had nothing. This one puts together much of the things I love of Pawn stars aka the great cast chemistry, the awesome history on items, with the anticipation of OMG WHAT'S IN THE BOX?!)
That's about it as far as currently airing television goes.

2 Broke Girls was really surprisingly good for a CBS standard sitcom. My unwavering, unstoppable, horrible crush on Kat Dennings didn't hurt either.

Community premiere tomorrow with John Goodman added to the cast. Looking forward to it.

Tuned in to part of Two and a Half Men out of morbid curiosity.
My face during the 'jokes':
My face whenever they referenced Aston Kutcher's penis:
I watched that, I was like WTF! This is amusing. Seems like a show with a lot of potential.
#26
Charlie Don't Surf
I watched most of 2.5 men just for trainwreck curiosity. I smiled bemusedly at the Dharma and Greg reference/joke, just because I like insider/hollywood jokes.

Dave
SO far all of the premiers I watched have been very 'meh'. TaaHM was boring and "to be continued" (REALLY?!?), I'm sick of Tosh.0 and his endless stream of dick shots and puking, Castle was very formulaic. So far I've been less tan impressed with most of what I've watched.
#28
Shegokigo
Oh thanks for reminding me Dave:
Tosh.0(still one of the best, non-apologetic, asshole comics there is. I could give a shit about the clips he reviews, it's the other half of the show I love)

Glee was ho-hum. It was a lot of stuff crammed into one episode. And WTF Quinn. I'll continue to watch for the music, though!!
I enjoyed Castle. Next episode looks fun!
For some reason, Hulu had the New Girl pilot like a week before it aired. Watched it again with my friend and I'm still on the fence about it. I love Zooey, so we'll see what happens.
Tosh.0(still one of the best, non-apologetic, asshole comics there is. I could give a shit about the clips he reviews, it's the other half of the show I love)
I gotta admit, at first I didn't like Tosh... but the amount of effort he puts into his show really sold me.

I'm kind of a sucker for "fairy tales meet the real world" type stuff, so I'm interested to see if Once Upon a Time pulls it off.

I never expected to see House back. I thought with Edelstein gone and the show on an ending note, that was it. Having a whole season set in prison looks like some good ol' fashioned shark-jumping to me.
Big Bang Theory's premiere was ... well a bit like watching any other episode of the show really. Good, not great, and unable to have a proper ending to the episode.
How I Met Your Mother had a fantastic premeire.
I watched Charlie's Angels last night. I'll probably keep watching, it was entertaining.
#37
Tress
I watched Person of Interest last night. It was better than average. It has potential to go places, but it also has the potential to fail spectacularly. It will all depend on how it develops as the season unfolds. I would say it's worth watching for at least the next few episodes.
#38
Steve
I watched Two and a Half Men and was as unimpressed with this start as I have been with the prior years. At least I got the premier out of the way so I can continue on without the show now.
I'm torn on The New Girl. There were parts of the show that were funny and others that I thought were ridiculous. Like when she is lying on the couch crying and the three guys are standing around her treating like she's an alien life form as if they've never seen a crying woman before. But I found the end of the show touching. I hope they don't end up having her hook up with one of the roomies. It's nice just having that friendship. On an unrelated note I have a couple of female friends that act like her and you can put up with it as friends but dating I would want to break their noses. It becomes extremely annoying quick.
Supernatural is tonight. That is still one of my favorite shows. Hoping we get a solid season out of it. And when Chuck starts up then Fridays will be fantastic. Thank god I'm married and don't have to worry about leaving the house on a Friday night. At least not until this season is over.
#39
AshburnerX
Chuck is going to Fridays? FINALLY.... They kept running it against House so I'd only catch it on nights that House was a re-run.
#40
Steve
I don't know why Chuck hasn't found a bigger audience. It's a great show. It's done better than most of NBC's Monday night line up but I agree that was a bad night for it. Opposite Monday Night Football and Monday Night Raw. Both of those shows draw a large portion of the Chuck demographic.

I checked out Prime Suspect on Hulu, and enjoyed it. Yeah, it's another 1 hour police drama, but it has Maria Bello, who is fantastic. She is good at showing weakness when it is needed and even better at showing strength. I'll watch it again.
#42
AshburnerX
Supernatural's premiere was alright. I'm glad they resolved last season's cliffhanger and are going in a different direction this year.
#43
Steve
I was glad to see them wrap up the Castiel is God angle in the first episode. I was worried it'd run all season. I did think it was funny when Dean was talking to Bobby and said "we never catch a break." Considering both Sam and Dean have made deals with demons (as well as Bobby) and got their souls back, Bobby was cured of paralysis and Sam and Dean have both been killed and resurrected multiple times I'd figure those were pretty good breaks to catch.
I watched The Office season premier for the sole reason to see Robert California. I had grown tired of The Office a couple of years ago but watched the interviews last season. The sole reason I was willing to give this season a chance was how brilliant Robert California was. I don't know what happened over the summer but it's almost like he's a totally different character this season.

I'm looking forward to the season premieres of Reaper, Brisco County Jr., Firefly, Farscape, Brimstone, Tru Calling, Arrested Development, Andy Richter Controls the Universe, ...
