It’s almost time for fall tv and there are some new shows coming out this fall that look really intriguing! I always love checking out the new shows and today I am sharing with you my 8 New Fall 2014 TV Shows to Watch.
1. State of Affairs– Monday, November 17th on NBC at 10 pm EST/9 pm – I’m a big fan of Katherine Heigl even though I know some people have bad memories of her from her Greys days. I’ve watched the extended preview of her new show and it looks great. It looks like it has a solid backstory and great potential. I really hope it lives up to it’s previews!
2. Madam Secretary– Sunday, September 21st on CBS at 8 pm EST/7 pm CT- This is another political drama that looks really good! With the greatness of Scandal I think these political dramas are on the rise and this is another one that looks to be intense and dramatic!
3. Gotham– Monday, September 22nd on Fox at 8 pm EST/7 pm CT- My husband is especially excited about this one. I’m a fan of Ben McKenzie since The O.C. days and we’re excited to see this story of the early days of Batman and Gotham.
4. Marry Me– Tuesday, October 14th on NBC at 9 pm EST/8 pm CT- This show is coming from the creators of Happy Endings which was such a cute show and it has one of our favorites from Happy Endings, Penny! The previews look really funny and I hope it’s going to be good!
5. NCIS: New Orleans– September 23rd on CBS at 9 pm EST/8 pm CT- I really enjoy NCIS but it’s been on for so long that I have not been watching it consistently. I am excited to say that I’m going to be covering NCIS: New Orleans this year as a community writer for Entertainment Weekly! I’ll be recapping the show each week so I’m looking forward to seeing it!
6. Bad Judge– Thursday, October 2nd on NBC at 9 pm EST/8 pm CT- The only reason I am watching this show is because I love Kate Walsh from her Private Practice days. I’m not a huge fan of the premise of the show but hopefully it will provide some good laughs!
7. Gracepoint– Thursday, October 2nd on Fox at 9 pm EST/8 pm CT- I watched the long preview for this show and it looks really intriguing. It’s about a boy who disappears in a small town and the search for him. It’s labeled as being a TV event more than a series but I will definitely be putting this on my DVR list.
8. Scorpion– Monday, September 22nd on CBS at 9 pm EST/8 pm CT- We keep seeing previews for this show and it looks like it has promise! I read it’s from the creator of Prison Break and I loved that show so if this one is anywhere near that caliber it will be good!
I feel like there are more shows I could add to this list. There are a lot of good looking shows coming out this fall and I am looking forward to checking them all out. Time to set my DVR now! What show are you most excited about?

What a great list! My husband is not going to be pleased, though, when I tell him there is another show that I just HAVE to watch!
Haha I know! Me too!

I’m excited for some of the fall new shows too! I’m looking forward to Gotham, Scorpion, NCIS: New Orleans, Stalker, Forever and The Mysteries of Laura. That’s a lot of shows on top of the ones I’m continuing to watch from previous seasons! I saw the commercial for Gracepoint and I thought it sounded familiar, something I watched before. Turns out it’s a remake of the UK’s Broadchurch, which I watched either on Hulu or Amazon Prime. The UK version started out really slow so I couldn’t get into it, but hopefully the US version will be different =)
Yes there are some promising looking new shows! I hope they are good!
Emily
I don’t have a lot of time for tv these days but I’m thinking NCIS: New Orleans sounds good.
I agree! I’m looking forward to watching it!
Emily
I have a hard time finding good shows to get into, thanks for the recommendations!
I hope you enjoy some of them!
Emily
I’m ready for some new shows. TV has been disappointing lately!
I miss my fall shows and I am excited for some good new ones!
Emily
Thanks for the info! It isn’t often I get to watch tv, so the suggestions really help. Thanks!
I hope you enjoy some of them!
Emily
We’re excited to watch Scorpion. We love shows about “smart people”. Thanks for the suggestions.
Haha yes they are good!
Emily
wow!! I haven’t heard of many of theses!! living in Hong Kong we get tv a couple of seasons late.. I think it’s cheaper for them :o) Many of these look like ones i would enjoy!!
Oh man! I’d not be happy missing out on my favorite shows!
Emily
I am so out of the loop with what’s on tv – thanks for putting this together! 🙂 Maybe I will find a new show to watch!
I hope you do!
Emily
Awesome list… Love NCIS!!!
XOXO
Us too!
Emily
Thanks for sharing!! I have only heard of a couple!! LOL!!
Hugs
Haha! Some good new shows coming!
Emily
I haven’t watched tv on a regular basis in years…but it looks like there are some good new shows. I think I am going to start watching again here and there just to relax!
We love to watch it to wind down after a long day!
Emily
Definitely going to catch NCIS New Orleans. Thanks for the list!
I hope you like it!
Emily
I’m excited now!! I wasn’t sure what I was going to watch this Fall. I’m so out of the loop on whats new. Thanks for letting us know. 🙂
You’re welcome! Hope you find some good ones to watch!
Emily
Oh my son is dying for Gotham, but I can’t wait to watch the new Viola Davis one – How to Get Away with Murder!! I have not heard of Scorpion, I’ll have to check it out.
I can’t wait for my favorites to come back, lol!
That one looks good too! Anything from Shonda Rhimes is usually a winner!
Emily
I love your TV posts! The one show I think I’m going to try to watch is Red Band Society, looks so intriguing to me.
Thank you! That show looks good too!
Emily
I am really looking forward to seeing Gotham! I think it looks great. Thanks for sharing at the In and Out of the Kitchen Link Party!
Thanks for coming by, we are looking forward to Gotham too!
Emily
I need to set my DVR to record these!
Me too!
Emily
I think I am most excited about Madame Secretary. I am just so excited to see an awesome actress playing such a high level position in a show. This fall line up definitely seems to have more strong female roles!
Yes it looks like such a good show!!
Emily
I think Bad Judge looks really cute! I love Kate Walsh too.
Yes, love her!
Emily
I’m looking forward to NCIS – combines my love of procedural crime dramas with my love for oddball Southern characters.
I hadn’t heard about Marry Me yet. I will love that one I can just tell.
It looks so cute!
Emily
I’m totally naive when it comes to the world of television… I hadn’t heard of a single one of these!! Ha ha… Maybe I shouldn’t admit that!
Haha! Well they all start up soon and should be good I hope!
Emily
It’s premiere week! yay! One show that I’m looking forward to (that’s not on the list) is Selfie. But that is only because the main girl was on Doctor Who and I loooved her, so I kind of want to watch it just for her. But I have Gotham ready to go on the DVR tonight and I can’t wait for Sunday (yay Once Upon a Time!). haha
We are loving Scorpion and Gotham and just watched the first episode of Gracepoint. Sad but I’m intrigued with the mystery now.
