Smallville premieres September 25th at 8pm NOT 9pm
Survivor on thursday??? I watched the premiere of Glee last night…
You watched the “Director’s Cut” of the Glee! pilot that previously aired.
What time zone are you in? Smallville is at 8 for central time.
Pretty sure it’s 7pm central time.
8 eastern 7 central
Law and Order SVU?
Starts Wed 23rd @ 9
GLEE! PARKS AND REC! 30 ROCK! BONES! It’s gonna be a good season.
Yeah, but no LIFE… I’m still bummed…
I agree about LIFE. It had a great twist on the cop genre. Also sad about The Unusuals. A bad name for a great show.
I can’t believe they got rid of Earl to keep P&R (terrible).
Survivor: Samoa Premieres at 8, not 9
I think Gossip Girl is now at 9:00 pm not at 8 they switched with OTH.
Gossip Girl is at 9 not at 8, and One Tree Hill is at 8 not at 9.
What? No days of the week? You wanna make me drag out a calendar?
lol, you were reading my mind!
Look again. Don’t know if they just added them, but there are days of the week listed now.
It does have the day of the week. At least as of now right before the dater
sorry I meant before the date.
You forgot:
FNL oct 28
rita rocks oct 5
Nip Tuck oct 14
Doesn’t look like cable tv is included here aside from premium channels
YAY! Nip/Tuck is back this fall! I was worried I’d have to wait until winter again like last year.
Um, he said that FNL was October 28, BUT he said it was DirecTV? What’s up with that? Isn’t this an NBC show?? Most of us don’t have DirecTV….??
If you are lucky enought to have DirecTV then you are able to watch friday night lights on channel 101 beginning on October 28th. If you are waiting for the episodes to air on NBC, they do not show them until the Spring.
Actually, FNL is premiering in SUMMER, not spring as of last report.
Oh god, you had me worried there for a second that Gossip Girl was going to conflict time slots with Heroes! Thank goodness not, that would have made for a very unhappy Monday.
Did this intern chick copy and paste this from another site? Because I swear SpoilerTV has the same calendar up, with the same problems everyone has commented on.
This looks like a carbon copy of Ausiello’s frienemy’s cheat sheet too.
Every show I loved was canceled by the end of last season. I’m just renting movies from now on.
Medium? Can I be your intern?
Highly excided for Smallville and Supernatural! It’s double-S weekly!
Where’s Medium? What about Chuck?
Medium- Friday 9/25 on CBS @ 9PM.
Chuck doesn’t have a premiere yet. Right now NBC is thinking March. Hopefully earlier though.
Medium- Friday, September 25th CBS not sure about the time.
After cutting out the shows that don’t matter to me, September 21st and 27th look mighty busy!
What about Medium? Is it on the same day as Ghost whisperer? I though Supernatural started in October but I’m so glad it doesn’t. Thanks!!
Medium is suppose to be on behind Ghost Whisperer at 9pm Friday September 25th.
Lie to me, House and Bones definitely!!
my fave 3 choices too!!!
Hell’s Kitchen does not premiere on Sept. 29th. The current season lasts until October.
Thank you! I’ve been waiting for this.
sorry hit the wrong button did not mean to reply to Annie!
I plan to watch at least one episode of about 24 of those listed…what does that say about me? haha
That you have a life beyond the TV. Unlike me
Medium isn’t on the list. When will it be premiering on CBS?
I thought Medium was on NBC. Did something change and it switched networks?
It’s on CBS now. NBC cancelled the show. It premieres Friday, September 25th at 9pm following Ghost Whisperer on CBS!
is it too much to ask for the actual day of the week??? like another poster said, i have to break out the calendar!
CHUCK!!!
Chuck’s coming back in March
Can someone add the premier date and time of Happy Town? I want to give it a chance.
Any idea when Scrubs will return? Will it be midseason?
I’m thinking Scrubs will be in January.. I saw Zach Braff post on his FB page that he just starting filming episodes this week…
What’s happening in syndication? Any new shows?
Chuck does not start until March.
Why is V starting so late? Might as well make it a midseason show.
It was ment for mid season but its been moved up
Yeah Watch With Kristin has had this list done for weeks.
