What to watch on Tuesday, September 20.
Premiere Week continues with returning favorites and the debuts of some high-profile new series. Whether you like teenage singers, murder investigators, morbidly obese people, or Kathy Griffin, there's really something for everyone! Except you, Steven M. Anton of Grand Rapids, Illinois. There is nothing on for you tonight (sorry). For everyone else, though, check these out:
SEASON 3 PREMIERE, 8pm, FOX
Glee
America's favorite teenage rascals are BACK, and they are SASSIER than ever. In tonight's season opener, the students of McKinley High continue to lick their wounds after their loss at Nationals. Plus Sue Sylvester's running for Congress, Blaine is considering a transfer to McKinley, and Sam's mysterious absence may or may not be explained. Aw, the locker room showers will seem so empty without him!
SERIES PREMIERE, 9pm, Fox
New Girl
After a humiliating breakup with her live-in boyfriend, a hip yet weird lady (Zooey Deschanel) moves into an apartment with three dudes she met on Craigslist. I really loved this sitcom, but I guess your reaction will depend on how you feel about attractive female weirdos? They are okay with me! (p.s. Don't get too attached to the Damon Wayans, Jr. character.)
10pm, FX
Sons of Anarchy
The Feds get closer to taking down SAMCRO, plus Clay and Jax continue to campaign for the Mexican-cartel deal. Let's just hope it goes better than the one on Breaking Bad.
SERIES PREMIERE, 10pm, CBS
Unforgettable
Meet Carrie (Poppy Montgomery), a fiery redhead with an impeccable memory who uses her gifts to help solve murder investigations. Hopefully you like her face, because most of the show is her staring into the middle-distance remembering details from crime scenes. Perfect TV, in other words.
SEASON 9 PREMIERE, 8pm, CBS
NCIS
In tonight's season premiere, when Tony's involvement in a secret assignment leads to the death of another NCIS agent, Gibbs will help him determine how exactly it went down. And the whole time they will banter, because close-proximity murder ain't even a thing to these dudes.
9pm, CW
Ringer
Bridget's right smack in the middle of Siobhan's awful life, and now she must try and cover up the crime she accidentally committed. Plus Machado's skeptical about "Siobhan" and Gemma's suspicions of her husband's infidelities (with Siobhan) intensify. Plus hopefully some green-screen work worthy of a Tommy Wiseau film?

What are you watching tonight?
Amen DinChild
They're in High School. It's a musical...
GLEE! (And New Girl...) But seriously- STOP using 'High School Musical' in the title. Many of us find it rather offensive.
ABC: Body Of Proof
CBS: NCIS and Unforgettable
NBC: Nothing
FOX: New Girl and Raising Hope
CW: Ringer
Glee, Ringer, Unforgettable, Body of Proof
Tosh.O, Glee, Ringer, Raising Hope, maybe Kathy Griffin.
Sons, Ringer, Both NCIS, Glee, Raising Hope and Unforgettable
glee, ncis, ncis: LA, unforgettable, sons of anarchy, ringer, body of proof and raising hope
Ringer
Finally new Glee & Rasing Hope YAY !!! Bit annoyed using "Highschool Musical" as a thread title. While HSM may be cute & bubbly it's nowhere near as good as Glee !!
Not a fan of "Glee," but nice to hear you're watching "Raising Hope." That show ROCKS!
NCIS, Ringer, Body of Proof, and Unforgettable - what did we do before DVRs?
Without mine I wouldnt be able to watch half the shows I do!
Sons of Anarchy :D
Raising Hope
Glee and NCIS for me. Might give New Girl a try though.
Glee, NCIS, Ringer, Parenthood & Body Of Proof
glee, parenthood, raising hope, new girl
Parenthood and Ringer for me.
90210 and Parenthood!!
Parenthood, NCIS & NCIS: LA
Ringer and Tosh.0.
NCIS & NCIS:LA. Ooh! The Decemberists on Carson Daly! I wonder if they'll sing about war and old timey things.
Sons Of Anarchy, Ringer
I will be watching Glee but my patience for the writing is wearing thin
Glee, Ringer, New Girl, Raising Hope, Sons of Anarchy, Parenthood, and Awkward.
Another CBS night for me!!! Season premieres of NCIS and NCIS: Los Angeles. I'm also going to check out Unforgettable.
Why list Comedy Central shows, but leave the Daily Show and Colbert Report off the Late-Night Picks? I'll be watching Glee and those two.
I also love both shows and watch them. I haven't been listing them (or Ellen) on my daily entries.
Good question... I pick them when I like the guest, otherwise I'd have to pick them every day because those are EXCELLENT shows.
I notice the guests you prefer listing on The Daily Show and Colbert are actors and actresses. For the most part, they offer some of the more boring interview material. It's the authors, politicians, and pundits that really sell those segments...especially if it's controversial. Or maybe I'm one of the few who just don't want to hear Cameron Diaz say stupid things about her ump-billionth terrible project. Let's make a deal here and now; next time Louis C.K. stops by The Daily Show, you PUT that on your list.
Glee (even though I hate it right now), New Girl, Unforgettable, Ringer, Raising Hope, Workaholics, Web Therapy, Awkward.
All of the above!! Caffeine intravenous in place.
glee, new girl, raising hope, ringer, parenthood,and awkward
NCLA Parenthood BoP 90210
New Girl, Raising Hope, SOA, and Parenthood.
New Girl and SOA ....Glee?? worst show ever
Glee,New Girl,Sons of Anarchy,Ringer,90210, NCIS: Los Angeles,
NCIS, NCIS LA and Glee(If someone put a gun in my head :D)
"Raising Hope"
NCIS, New Girl, Raising Hope, and Unforgettable.
Glee, 90210, and Teen Mom. Lol, kidding.
Sons of Anarchy, and LLS w/ CF. Probably New Girl. Maybe Ringer.
Raising Hope!!!!, SOA, and sure, why not, New Girl.
Glee, New Girl (I'll watch it to try it, but not that excited about it), Ringer, Body of Proof and Awkward.
Still not sure what to do about the dilemma of 90210 or Glee and Ringer or New Girl. Will probably go with Glee and Ringer and download the other two. Will also be watching Parenthood and Awkward.
NCIS, NCIS: LA, and Unforgettable.
Sons of Anarchy!! Also Tosh.0 and Workaholics. So glad these shows are back!!
Def watching Ringer. Fully expect ep 2 to pull me off the fence(hopefully in favour). Simon Cowell on Jimmy Kimmel(simply cos there's nothing else on and I'll be awake). Might also watch Awkward and Web Therapy.
I'm also going to watch the Glee premiere, simply to see if Ryan Murphy can back up his claims that the show's going back to being about the story. If he fails here, I officially abandon Glee forever.
NCIS, NCIS: LA, Unforgettable, Body of Proof (online), Ringer (online), New Girl (online)...
