So with most of the new fall shows a few weeks into their first season, What are shows that you have determined you must see, the shows you're not sure about, but will give a few more weeks to make a desision, and the shows you're just waiting to see the official cancellation notice.

Most of the shows for me are still be be determined such as Gothom, Flash, Selfie, Scorpion, Manhattan Love Story, A to Z, Black-ish, plus a couple that haven't aired yet.

Shows I'm waiting for the axe: Bad Judge (I was really hoping it would be a modern day Night Court), Gracepoint (sorry David, you should have stayed away from this poor American remake of the superior British production), Utopia (just.... Blah, No)

So what do you think of the new shows?

I'm enjoying (if that's the right word) Gotham, The Flash, Scorpion and Selfie. And ratings at this point tell us that the first three are safe from the axe.
Totally agree on Bad Judge and Gracepoint.
Forever is stylish and the cast (esp. Judd Hirsch) are attractive but the stories are kind of meh and I think it's doomed.
Virtually all of the new love story comedies are God-awful but of a bad bunch Selfie stands out to me because it's actually an interesting modern take on Pygmalion (for those not familiar that's My Fair Lady without the music).

I think The Goldbergs is a sitcom being sleeped on. It's not particularly complicated but Barry is daggone funny and it's already in it's second season.

I'm on the fence with black-ish, Laurence Fishburne seems out of place on that one.

Agreed that Bad Judge is a thumbs down, The mysteries of Laura isn't gonna last either. Just a big nope for Debra Messing. Also though Law and Order: SVU isn't new, I think the baby thing going on is the last jumped shark I can take.

Utopia was ok for like an hour than it just turned to Real World in the woods. No thanks...

Just started Constantine - it's promising so far. Anyone else seen it?

Is it proper Trenchcoat Brigadier, and not some hideous Angel-lite yankee bollocks (*coughKeanucough*)?

I'd take a look at it Space. It's not Angel-lite, it has dark in it, the acting is good. Let me know what you think.

The 1st episode was a stage setter, watching the second now and it's even better. I like!

Shows already cancelled:
A to Z (NBC)
Bad Judge ( NBC)
Manhattan Love Story (ABC)
Utopia (FOX)

On the fence right now (determinations will be made after November sweeps)

Constantine
Gracepoint

I watch Gracepoint but there is something wrong with the pacing of that show. It is 2 episodes longer that Broadchurch but it seems rushed in places. Also the acting/casting is not as good as Broadchurch. That being said I will watch it till the end even if just to see how they change it- plus it was filmed in my neck of the woods.

I am NOT happy to hear the news that Constantine has been cancelled.



The writers really believe in the show and there's a vocal fanbase trying to get another network to take him.

He may still appear on Arrow.

Gracepoint has been cancelled. Thank you baby Jesus. This is a good lesson for David Tennant. Don't Americanize a role that you already did perfectly
