Returning Shows
Zip, nadda, nothing! NCIS? Dancing with the Stars? Just kill me now! Thankfully two of the most promising shows debut on this otherwise forgettable night.
New Shows
90210 (7pm CST, CW): Ok so maybe we shouldn’t call this a new show. After all, we’re just returning to the old haunts of West Beverly High right? Wrong or at least I hope so. While he’s no longer involved in the project Rob Thomas (Veronica Mars) had a hand in resurrecting the teen show that captivated all us Gen X and Y folks. Based on that quality mind being involved, if only for the pilot, I’m more then willing to get behind this relaunch. The nostalgia factor will be thick too with Jennie Garth and Shannon Doherty popping up and of course there’s the specter of Nat and his great fries popping up at the Peach Pit. In my heart though I’m guessing this becomes Gossip Girl in LA and fails to keep my attention after a few months. Unless maybe Tori and Luke stop by too…
Premieres September 2nd
Fringe (8pm CST, FOX): JJ Abrams is back at it again and from what I hear the pilot lives up to the standards the man has set with Alias, Lost and yes, even Felicity. Honestly I’m just as excited to see old Pacey, aka Joshua Jackson, to the boob tube, as I am to see JJ’s new show. Many X-Files comparisons have been made and if the show is able to not get bogged down in mythology (something JJ has been very public about acknowledging) it could really succeed. Then again I love JJ’s mythology shit so I’m hoping this tale of agents investigating the paranormal is such a success that he can go all Rambaldi on us in season 2.
Premieres September 9th
