The big 5 TV networks have revealed an exciting Fall lineup. The buzz is building as the new television season premiers this week. ABC leads the pack for new series, including a very highly rated spin-off from Grey's Anatomy. Get a quick synopsis of the new Fall shows, along with the airing schedule for this Fall.
Private Practice: After the runaway success of Grey's Anatomy, Shonda Rimes gives it another go to see if she can recreate the magic a second time. The spin-off features Dr. Addison Forbes Montgomery, who decides to leave Seattle Grace and go to Santa Monica to seek the advice of her friends on relationships and motherhood. They have a private practice down there, and Addison thinks that working with them might be a way to reset her own life and get on with living. Featuring an all-star cast including Amy Brenneman, Tim Daly and Taye Briggs as well as Kate
Sam I Am: What happens when you get involved in a car accident and get retrograde amnesia? You begin to rebuild your life because you simply don't remember who you are. If you've been mean to people, will they now forgive and forget? Samantha Newly is about to find out. Starring Christina Applegate, from Married with Children, as Samantha, this series puts a new twist on the genre started with 50 First Dates. Now we see the world from the victim, not from the outside.
Cavemen: Most of us have evolved. It took long enough, but 100,000 years has turned most of us from cavemen into homo sapiens. Except for these guys. Meet Joel, Jamie and Nick. They are cavemen who haven't yet figured out how to evolve. So they are stuck lacking that huge gap in learning that the rest of the world has undergone. This dynamic comedy series is based off the hugely successful Geico insurance commercials, and looks to be quite funny. It stars Bill English as Joel, and Nick Kroll as Nick.
Carpoolers: Take four ordinary men, all from he same basic walk of life. They all have dreams, hopes, fears and their own personal demons. Put them together out of necessity in the modern suburbanite chaos that is the daily commute, and you have The Carpoolers. Four men who try to figure the world out as they zip up and down the carpool lane. These guys all have hidden fears that although unspoken can emerge at any time to catch them unawares; but as friends, they work to help each other out, solve problems and try to survive. Starring Fred Goss, Jerry O'Connell, Jerry Minor, and Tim Peper.
Pushing Daisies: Once upon a time, there was a baker.
