Welcome to the Friday Five! Each week I help you get to know me a bit better with the help of a top five list! This week’s category: New Fall TV Shows 2013.
 
With the fall season now upon us, it’s time for a new crop of freshmen TV shows to try their hands at broadcast television supremacy. Sure, most new shows every year will probably suck and get cancelled (especially if they are NBC sitcoms or Fox genre shows), but there are a few I think look interesting this year, even if I’m not gonna watch them every week, I may at least Tivo them.
 

  1. Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. – I’ve said it before, but this will be the first time I’ve watched a show on ABC since Lois and Clark went off the air in 1997, and it looks totally awesome.

    2.  

  2. Michael J Fox Show – I’m sure it won’t be as good as The Office, but it’s nice to see MJF back on TV again.

    3.  

  3. The Black List – James Spader being creepy, practicing for being Ultron.

    4.  

  4. The Crazy Ones – Robin Williams AND Sarah Michelle Gellar? Sounds interesting, but it’s a CBS sitcom, so it’s probably broad and pandering and as lazily written as possible, like Big Bang Theory.

    5.  

  5. Masters of Sex – I will probably forget all about this show since it’s on Showtime and I never watch that channel, but I’m a big fan of Lizzy Caplan, so I’ll try to remember to check it out. Also, almost every other new broadcast show is totally shit, unless you want to see Gordon Ramsey try not to call small children cunts on MasterChef Juniors, which might actually be pretty fun to watch.
