I know Awkward & Suits were light summer shows, but, does that mean we have to wait another 5 months to watch 'em again??? Can anyone tell me if these are schedule to return any sooner? Thnx

Update:
MTV The Challenge: Battle Of The Exes(S22) | Ep. 1 | Love Is A Battlefield aired 1/25/12.

Was going to add Shark Tank also but small dick tony (couldn't resist) already added it. Gotta chill Tony; this may not be perfect but it's the best midseason '12 guide I've seen.

The season premiere of Shark Tank was 1/20, not 2/3 like reported above. Thankfully the episode is on hulu so check it out there if you missed it like me because of TV.com's error.

I'm still lamenting the loss of Human Target, one of the classiest and fun shows to come along in forever. Why didn't you watch it, people, it was so great. I watched my final episode last night and we'll not see its equal in a long, long time...

Yay! My shows are coming back! Supernatural, Justified, Blue Bloods, CSI, and Being Human!

seems like i am waiting forever for bob's burgers!!

Once Upon A Time, Luck, The Good Wife, Shameless, Lost Girl (Canadian Show on it's second season but about to premiered on Syfy as an "original series"), House of Lies, Pretty Little Liars, Gossip Girl, The Lying Game, Being Human (the Syfy one not the British one), Switched At Birth, Glee, 90210, Jane By Design, Parenthood, Southland, Suburgatory, Modern Family, Revenge, The Vampire Diaries, Grey's Anatomy, The Secret Circle, Bones, Archer, Unsupervised, Nikita, Sparatacus.
Yes my DVR works over time.

And, finishing up wit Friday, weird. 4 shows at 9-- all broadcast -- worth checking out, and nothing interesting the rest of the night. Since I don't watch shows on-line, I still don't know about GRIMM and I stopped watching FRINGE midway through Season 1 -- maybe a big mistake. But CSI:NY is reliable usually good, rarely dull, with a "Silver Age" feel (American detectove and mystery books mostly from 1930-60) unique on current television.

And SUPERNATURAL shows that the highest quality can pop up anywhere, even in a sometimes silly fantasy show. But the solid care for the mythology created (compare the inanities of FLASH FORWARD and TERRA NOVA), the acting, the subtexts of family ("God as deadbeat dad" was one theme of season 5), and the simple care put is with the other three -- though if Bobby is really dead along with Castiel, it might be hard to hold it together -- one reason for the 'last season' rumors?moreless

Once Upon A Time, The Cleveland Show, Desperate Housewives The Walking Dead, Being Human, The River, New Girl, Ringer, Justified, Tosh.0, Are You There Chelsea?, Revenge, The Vampire Diaries, The Secret Circle, Rob, The Firm, Parks and Recreation, 30 Rock, Shark Tank, Fringe, Grimm, Supernatural, and definitely Spartacus: Vengeance!

Thursdays aren't so good. PERSON OF INTEREST is another one my wife watches and I hate. THE FINDER might be good, if it doesn't depend too much on BONES -- which I might get caught up on one of these years, migh have been one I unfairly ignored, like the opening years of NCIS.

THE MENTALIST is between very good and near great -- the acting is the reason for the higher rating, the occasionally pure old pulp magazine plots are why I hold back.

Might check out THE FIRM, but with not high expectations.

Three shows that revived themselves and one true great. A dood night, with CRIMINAL MINDS and SVU (both definitions of 'uneven') havng a new breath of life. If they just avoided their personal 'formulas' more. But still never unenjoyable. CSI is back among the 'near-greats' with Danson, a truly first-rate character, quirky but solid under the quirkiness. If we weren't losing Marg...

And ROYAL PAINS is just unique and incredible, the only show capable of challenging NCIS for the top spot. The whole 'cinematogrphic feel' that started from the first episode, solid acting from everybody, and likable, complex, non-cliched characters. Major work, thank goodness for DVRs.

Tuesday pins to NCIS, not merely the best show currently on, but easily among the top 5 ever. It understands that tv is about character first of all, and has created the best ensemble since ST:TNG, but with much realer and tougher writing.

Since the spin-off is awful, 9:00 is RINGER for my wife, free time for me.

10:: has BODY OF PROOF -- a major show that didn't find its audience, but I hope still will before the axe comes down and UNFORGETTABLE, which is just at the borderline of 'watchable.' Dull cast backing Montgomery, and the 'remembering bit' is getting tired, but can't quite give up on it.

WHITE COLLAR will be a must as well, also in the 'near-great' category but at the bottom, just above 'very good.'

Your 9-10 Fri picture needs updating. Stella (Melina Kanakaredes) hasn't been on CSI:NY for a couple years!

Hate the Bones hiatus thing! Why can't Fox launch their new show without disrupting Bones? arg!

I would list what I'll be watching but with my Roku apps I can watch pretty much everything. Makes Thursdays much less stressful since I like Bones, Person Of Interest, Grey's Anatomy & Vampire Diaries which are all on at the same time! Other nights don't have so many conflicts of interest for me. I got to catch up of Grey's & Vampire Diaries thanks to my Roku, now I'm up to date on all of them and I can watch them all every week. I just watch one on Thurs night and watch the rest over the next couple days! Makes me a happy Granny!moreless

Now for Monday: I can't watch HOUSE any longer, but my wife will.

ALCATRAZ and TOUCH seem worth checking out. No high hopes for either, but might get lucky. Meanwhile HART OF DIXIE isn;t 'must-see' but is definitely worth watching and keeps getting better.

CASTLE remains at the top of the 'near great' category (other years would have been 'best on the air, but there's a lof f great stuff on.) with THE CLOSER and RIZZOLI (and MEMPHIS BEAT would have made this list if it survived.)

Okay, 'one day at a time. Saturdays, well, Sports for my wife -- baseball for me, she likes them all -- and catching up on old movies downloaded from TCM

Sunday: HARRY'S LAW (Maybe they'll get back to the first season's grittiness instead of just running yet another Kelley quirky legal show.)

GOOD WIFE (One of the 'Big Four' that are not just great shows for now, but near the top of an all-time list compiled by someone who actually watched Gleason on the Dumont network. The others? NCIS, ROYAL PAINS and SUPERNATURAL -- each of whixh understand what tv is capable of and use that knowledge.)

GCB -- Gotta check out a show based on a book with the original title "Good Christian Bitches"

Other: Awake, Apt 23.

Harsh midseason. Only Fox can schedule 2 shows for the same timeslot, poor Bob's Burgers (a show I waited 2 hours in line to see the Comic-Con panel of, only to not make it in the door).

Anyway, very little to get excited about for this midseason, and some of these "shows" are the laziest junk ever. Howie Mandel's show making flashmobs, a 2-years-out-of-date trend, and it's on Fox? Hi, welcome to CANCELED.

As someone already said it ... What about "Awake" ?

californication (guilty pleasure for sure) and comic men looks good, but that's mainly because i'm a huge kevin smith fan (rewatched clerks for the 12th time!). and fear not community fans, because you can still see alison brie once mad men returns

Nitpick: Californication airs at 10:30p not 10:00p

Does anyone know when Homeland's coming back?

Please stop bringing shows back for JUST ONE EPISODE and then going on hiatus again (such as Pretty Little Liars last fall and Bones this month)!

Where's awake???

where's Community????!!!!

I am pretty invested in the shows I watch now and I watch a lot of shows.

Sunday: Once Upon A Time
Monday: HIMYM, 2BG, Mike and Molly, Hawaii Five-0, Pretty Little Liars
Tuesday: NCIS and NCIS LA

Hey, TV.com staff. Did you forget about Bones? Or did you leave it out because it has a late return? I didn't see anything past March in this list, so I'm thinking that if it returns in April or sometime thereafter, you probably consider it returning for the summer schedule. Just throwing out thoughts here. It would be fantastic if you could let us know.

Also, same thing for Awake? I'm really looking forward to that show.
