2013 New Fall Season – Thursdays

old-tv-set1Thursday night is traditionally the busiest night of the week.  Here’s what’s on the slate for this season.

7:00

The Big Bang Theory – Entering its 7th season, the show’s ratings continue to grow.  Everyone is in a relationship now, so we’ll see how the show handles that.

Once Upon A Time In Wonderland – Originally conceived as a mini-series to air while Once Upon A Time was in hiatus, ABC execs were so enamored with this spinoff show that they moved it to the fall and gave it its own timeslot.  Will 2 hours of weekly fairy tales prove to be too much?  Only time will tell.

8:00

The Crazy Ones – Robin Williams returns to television for the first time since Mork & Mindy, which is not something I would ordinarily be interested in.  Add in David E. Kelley, who has been more miss than hit lately, and this would likely get a pass from me.  However, the inclusion of one Sarah Michelle Gellar has guaranteed that I will at least check it out.

Grey’s Anatomy – Back for a 10th season, the show was revitalized a bit last season with the addition of a new group of interns.  Hopefully they can keep it up this year.

9:00

Elementary – The modern day, living in America story of Sherlock Holmes was decent enough last season.  I’ll continue to watch until they give me a reason not to.

Parenthood – A strong season brings Parenthood back for a fifth season, and a move to the once-cherished anchor spot on Thursday night for NBC.  Now that they’ve been given a full season pickup, we’ll see how the show does without the constant threat of cancellation hanging over them.
