Top 10 New TV Shows to Watch This Fall 2011

FALL TELEVISION PREVIEW 2011 - is out, the kids are back in school, the summer buzz has slowed to a simmer, and then cooled, and now I'm pulling my snuggy and my slippers out, warming up some hot chocolate, forcing my doggy to cuddle on the couch with me for hours on end, while I watch the new fall prime time lineup from one network to the next, in search of my new diamonds in the rough to review for you! This year is no exception and I have a feeling it's going to be a great season, even though pilot season was almost at a dead stop this year, I still have hope!

10) The X Factor (FOX) - Simon Cowell is back with a brand new American Idol, basically. This show has a new panel of judges, well, sorta. Paula Abdul, not so new, but LA Reid and Nicole Scherzinger are new to the game. It's just a British talent show. I hate to admit that I am looking forward to this show, but it's a must watch, because you know that everyone and their momma is going to be curious to see if the show is better or worse than Cowell's first creation and after all, we do live for the hype. I don't see this show being original, so it barely makes the list at ten. I think that the show will be exactly like Idol, Dance, Top Model and we will watch it like zombies and it will get huge ratings because it's just more of what America wants to see.

9) Terra Nova (FOX) - Never mind the weird name, it's brought to you by Steven Speilberg, which usually speaks for itself, but after seeing SUPER 8 this last month, I do not assume that everything that the Berg makes is a monster hit. Obviously sci-fi, the show centers an ordinary family that lives on a dying earth in the year 2149. They sign up for project Terra Nova. The project transports them back 85 million years to prehistoric earth to join a colony of humans with a second chance to build a better civilization. Think, Dr. Mereau meets Land of the Lost and it has earned #9 on my list of shows to watch Fall 2011.

8) Ringer - (The CW) This show stars Sarah Michelle Gellar, and I love her, so I have hopes for this one. It's about a young woman on the run from the mob, and she poses as her wealthy twin sister to evade them, but she soon finds out that her sister has a price on her head as well. I'm a sucker for mob stories.

7) Charlie's Angels - (ABC) This show pretty much speaks for itself. It's a cool remake of the 70's classic, and the producers are on auto pilot as long as they follow the simple script that is already laid out for them. A monkey could make this show. We all know exactly how it goes, and there's not much mystery. Unlike Wonder Woman, there was no fancy suit or get up involved so the show was green lit without incident.

6) Icon News - (Bravo) This show is my sleeper and I already see a lot of eyebrows raising, but this looks like a very good show. Lew Marklin interviews celebrities from their living room, recording studio, on set or wherever they have a bubble cam, via skype about positive issues, etc. My interest in the show is its host, Lew Marklin. Many of you do not know that name yet, but in 2007, he hosted a show called ADHDtv, that was completely independent, came out of nowhere and ranked on the Neilsen charts next to Larry King and other major names. It was completely unheard of and though the show was somewhat odd, it caused ripples in TV land. Now Marklin has moved up the food chain to a larger network and I got a hunch, he's figured it out.

5) Person of Interest - (CBS) More hitmen and action! This show is about an ex CIA hitman and a Scientist who team up to stop crimes before they happen, sorta like the Minority Report. I like the concept and I think this will be a good action drama.

4) Prime Suspect - (NBC) I'm usually not big on adapted shows from Britain or elsewhere, but this show looks to be a good one. Female cop breaking sexist stereotypes. She's a tough female detective who has to prove herself in a male dominated New York City precinct. Sorta reminds me of last years premiere of Chase on NBC. A show that I also liked.

3) H8R - (The CW) Now don't H8 on me for saying that I grew up on Saved by the Bell, but for some reason Mario Lopez, who always shows up hosting some TV show, just when you though he and his dimples were retired, never completely flops, but never completely hits either. I like the concept though, and think that the show will be interesting and funny, and one of those reality shows that you can watch out of synch or miss a few times and not have to go back and catch up on what you missed.

2) Once Upon a Time - (ABC) I'm a girl, duh. Need I say more? What girl does not want to wake up in a fairytale, to find out that she really is the daughter of Snow White and Prince Charming. Besides, I liked The Tutors and it seems right up that line historically speaking.

1) AWAKE - (NBC) I love a good mind warp and a challenge. This show is a trip. Two different realities and you get to experience it all with the main character who suffers a traumattic car crash the servers his reality. He, his wife and son were all in the car, but only two people survive the crash. Only problem is that he comes out of crash experiencing two completely different realities, one in which his son has died and the other in which the wife died, and he, and the viewer have to take the ride, in order to figure out which reality is true! I love it!!

Well, there's my top ten. I'd love to hear your comments.

10 Top TV Survival Shows and Reality Shows

I love survival shows and reality shows, and want to share some of my favorites with you. TV survival and reality shows are instructional, a reenactment of a true story, a dangerous occupation or an adventure, and make us feel like we have experienced the harsh struggle right along with the featured people. We've all seen wilderness survival, urban survival, crab fishing in the Bering Sea and all sorts of great subjects, allowing us to learn and be entertained at the same time.

It is hard to pick, but here are a few of these wonderful programs. They are from a variety of channels including Discovery Channel, Animal Planet, Outdoor Channel, Spike TV, truTV and CBS. I know there are more out there, but in this article we'll try to pick the cream of the crop.

* Survivor from CBS combines wilderness survival as a team player and as individuals in this competition for a top prize of $1,000,000. Players need to outwit, outplay and outsurvive the others, as the competitors are eliminated at different stages. This is one of the first and best TV reality shows, and has lasted quite some time.

* Deadliest Catch from Discovery Channel features crab fishing in the Bering Sea, and follows several boats and crews during the different crab fishing seasons. These are tough captains and fisherman in one of the most dangerous occupations around. This program portrays the difficulties of the weather, working conditions and the personal stories of each crew member. This is another one of my favorite TV reality shows, and continues to be watched by many fans.

* Dual Survival, one of the Discovery Channel survival shows, features both survival experts Cody Lundin and Dave Canterbury. This program is both instructional and entertaining, and shows a variety of climates and conditions. Cody Lundin is more of the hippie type minimalist/survivalist and Dave Canterbury has a military/hunting survivalist background. Both men come from unique perspectives, giving the viewers great insight and knowledge.

* Man vs. Wild features Bear Grylls, who served with the United Kingdom Special Forces. This is another one of Discovery Channel survival shows, and puts Bear in different locations all over the world. Man vs. Wild keeps your attention, and gives another way to survive the elements in both wilderness and urban environments.

* The Best Defense: Survival! is from one of the Outdoor Channel survival shows. This program's hosts are Michael Bane, Michael Janich and Rob Pincus, who also host The Best Defense. This program is highly instructional, showing urban survival skills with episodes on the survival room, food, water, medical, security, transportation/bugout, bugin/shelter in place. Urban survival supplies and skills are a great addition for most viewers, giving instruction and plans for a variety of situations.

* Surviving Disaster from Spike TV, led by Navy SEAL Cade Courtley, is also one of the best survival shows I have ever seen. Surviving Disaster episodes include Hijack, Towering Inferno, Hurricane, Earthquake, Home Invasion, Avalanche, Lost at Sea, Mall Shooting, Nuclear Attack and Pandemic. Cade Courtley and his expert instruction could save your life, so please watch and pay close attention to this excellent program on Spike TV.

* I Shouldn't Be Alive from Animal Planet reenacts true survival stories. There is something different about a program when you know that it really happened. Unlike the other programs, this one has the survivor tell their own personal story, with amazing real survival situations. They range from mountaineering, plane crashes, lost at sea, lost in the Outback of Australia and many other life-threatening ordeals. Animal Planet has the story reenacted, with the real survivor narrating the events. These are truly amazing survival stories.

* The Amazing Race is another of CBS TV reality shows, and is an adventure and competition between teams. Each pair is given instruction and limited resources to travel between a variety of locations, and tasks have to be completed along the way. After each stage, the last team to arrive at the destination is eliminated. This show is extremely popular.

* Conspiracy Theory with Jesse Ventura on truTV may not be your typical program, but in order to survive, you need to know what is really going on in the world. Jesse Ventura and the investigative team from truTV dig deep to research, do interviews and present the facts behind difficult conspiracy theories. Episodes include subjects such as Lyme Disease, secret societies, Wallstreet, JFK Assassination, HAARP (weather modification), Big Brother, 9/11 and many other interesting topics.

*Expedition Impossible on ABC is one of the newest TV survival reality shows, and looks to be an excellent adventure competition. This program comes from Executive Producer Mark Burnett, who also produces Survivor and The Apprentice. Expedition Impossible features 13 3-person teams, as they must complete a stage of the journey each week, with 10 stunning legs to travel. The first team to finish wins $50,000 for each member and a brand new Ford Explorer. This will be an excellent survival and reality show.

These are some of my favorites, and I hope you enjoy them too. As mentioned earlier, there are so many more TV survival shows and reality shows that are on now and from the past that are great too, but these are my 10 top picks. Education and fun combined is surely the best way to keep the mind sharp.
