Elementary. Just another procedural crime drama? Or something more?
Vegas. Wait, Dennis Quaid on TV?
Made in Jersey.... basically Legally Blonde meets with a guidette.
Partners. Ah! Sophia Bush!

Grey's gets LOST
[WARNING: This is the first 6 minutes of the Grey's Anatomy season finale. If you don't want to watch it.... stop reading.]
But seriously. When I heard there would be a plane crash in the finale, I, of course, thought of LOST. But this HAS to be some sort of homage. The opening scene, the music... is this for real? I always thought there should be some sort of LOST / Grey's crossover. Two gorgeous, dark-haired doctors named Shepard? That is no coincidence.

ABC Fall Trailers
The Last Resort sort of reminds me of Terra Nova.... but with submarines instead of dinosaurs. Also, from the first moments in the trailer, I was sort of hoping for a Down Periscope-ish comedy.

666 Park Ave. John Locke + Justin Walker + one of the Angels + Renee from Desperate + Clay from OTH. Seems kind of weird, but anything that puts John Locke in a satanesque role is fine by me.
The Family Tools and How to Live With Your Parents for the Rest of Your Life both have pretty stellar comedy casts and looks like it has legs to last.

Nashville. I hate country music, but I like Connie Britton. Plus, I spy the St. Simon's plaid on those little girls!

The Nieghbors. ..... Too bizarre not to share.
Red Widow. Is it too similar to Mob Doctor?
Zero Hour, or Doctor Green and Kappy team up in a National Treasure TV show!

NBC Fall Trailers
Revolution. Looks like apocalyptic mix between Flash Forward and Terra Nova. With the mirror from Once Upon a Time.
The New Normal. Justin Bartha. That is all.
Chicago Fire, just for the man candy.

Snooki, Catfish, Awkward. MTV Announcements.
MTV made a few show announcements this week:
"Catfish, based on the eponymous documentary, follows couples who have fallen in love online but have never met in person." Ummm anyone who has seen this movie knows it's about a LOT more than that. It isn't just True Life: We Met Online.Snooki & JWoww will follows the two friends living in Jersey City. Debuts on Thursday, June 21 at 10/9c. "The new show will document their now toned-down lives. Each is involved in a serious relationships, and Snooki is also pregnant." Wondering how this works in with the new season of Jersey Shore? I thought that was filming during Snooki's third trimester.
Awkward is back on Thursday, June 28 at 10:30/9:30c!
New show, "Inbetweeners is based on the U.K. series which show follows the life of suburban teenager Will and three of his friends."Yes! I watched this series online and it is hilarious! I had heard it was in development for ABC maybe... but I'm glad it is going on cable.
"Zach Stone is Gonna be Famous is a single camera, 12-episode, series starring Bo Burnham as a kid fresh out of high school who hires a camera crew to film him in hopes of becoming a celebrity." LOVE Bo Burnham.

Good News/Bad News for some of my favorite shows on the bubble.
via TV Guide
Alcatraz (Fox)Wrapped March 26; aired Mondays at 9/8c
The Good News: Fox has kept Fringe alive this long — maybe executives will be generous to another J.J. Abrams drama with a small-but-passionate fan base? And they already canceledTerra Nova, which theoretically helps.
The Bad News: The Voice kind of clobbered it, and worse, viewers flat-out rejected this island mystery. Less than half the audience who watched the premiere tuned in for the finale to learn the secret of those disappearing, reappearing prisoners.
Awake (NBC) Thursdays at 10/9c
The Good News: Series creator Kyle Killen, he of the well-liked-but-short-lived Lone Star, is a guy with ideas! A guy creative people flock to! So what if he makes shows for broadcast that would be better off on cable and not enough folks come to watch?
The Bad News: To be fair, airing it at the end of NBC's low-rated Thursday-night comedy block — and immediately after the night's biggest loser, Up All Night — hasn't been a great fit for the somber drama about a man dealing with tremendous loss. Ratings are abysmal.
Community (NBC) Thursdays at 8/7c
The Good News: After a more than three-month hiatus, Community returned in March to its biggest audience since October 2010. And relative to NBC's Thursday-night lineup, it's pretty coolcoolcool.
The Bad News: NBC's Thursday-night lineup is a bust, led by a flailing-in-its-eighth season The Office, so any ratings fetes enjoyed by Community are still small in the bigger picture — and it will be measured against some strong comedy pilots in contention, among them Justin Kirk-frontedAnimal Kingdom and White House comedy 1600 Penn, starring (Bill Pullman) and Book of Mormon's Josh Gad.
Fringe (Fox)
Fridays at 9/8c
The Good News: Fox has always loved this show, having rescued it from the bubble twice already. Since the network has already canceled Terra Nova and House, it may want to hang on to this cult favorite for a final (probably shortened) season.
The Bad News: Fox has a couple of buzzy new drama pilots, including a serial killer story from Kevin Williamson starring Kevin Bacon, so the network may decide to clear the bench. Fox Entertainment President Kevin Reilly put it pretty plainly in January that the network's generous pocketbook might be closing when it comes to the costly Fringe: "We're not in the business of losing money," he said.
Parenthood (NBC)
Wrapped Feb. 28; aired Tuesdays at 10/9c
The Good News: This touching family drama is a critical darling with a small-but-loyal fan base, and NBC will need a couple veteran dramas to anchor its fall schedule. Parenthood is neck and neck with Law & Order: SVU to be the second-highest-rated drama at NBC behind the already-renewed Smash.
The Bad News: We're running low on Kleenex over here!
Up All Night (NBC)Wrapped April 12; last aired Thursdays at 9:30/8:30c
The Good News: NBC pulled out all the stops trying to make this one work. After it did so-so numbers on Wednesday, they decided to give it another push, slotting it behind The Office and hoping that viewers would take a second look at Will Arnett and Christina Applegate playing new parents, and Maya Rudolph as a crazy diva talk show host.
The Bad News: The audience actually shrunk in the move to Thursday! NBC already has a few low-rated pedigree comedies it probably wants to keep (30 Rock, Community, Parks and Recreation) and this one has the fewest viewers.
