There's a certain joy you get from sinking your teeth into a new show and experiencing a new story. You get to learn about new characters, a new fictional world and of course new scenes that mysteriously resonate with your own life. However new shows come with a tragic downside. Somehow it always ends up that you are the only one who's seen the new show so you have no one to share it with. It might be that people have been burnt too many times with new shows that don't stand the test of time so they don't want to put themselves through it unless they know it's a runaway hit. This is especially true with the never ending carousel of FOX sci-fi shows that the studio has no confidence in even though most of them are actually quite ...
Great news! Some of the new shows I have been looking forward to have started! Here are my thoughts on the ones that have premiered so far from those mentioned in a previous post and a few that didn't feature on my list.

Returning Shows With the holiday season coming to a close the TV networks are well aware that everyone has had more than enough family time and are ready to come back to the welcoming embrace of television and it's gentle embrace. I am sure that I'm not alone in awaiting the return of a few special shows that take the mind far away from the troubles that reality brings. NB* I should point out now that I watch my TV shows according to when they come ...
I shouldn't have to say this but 2013 was a great year for television! I've honestly had trouble trying to keep up with it at times. So because of the sheer amount of shows I have watched or have started watching this year and because there are a few that I never got around to watching (as I haven't mastered not sleeping yet!) I am going to split this post into a few categories: New shows Returning shows Shows I heard good things about New Shows By new shows I am refering to those which started anytime after Jan 1st 2013. Based on a rather large list I have narrowed it down to a top 10 of new shows listed below in no particular order. The Tomorrow People Masters of Sex The Blacklist Almost Human Hannibal House of Cards Orange ...
