Many channels bring new rounds of shows to watch as the new year starts. Here are a few you might want to set your DVR to:
- American Idol (Tues @ 8pm on Fox) – I know that you either love it or hate it, but AI makes it return this week with its new season and new host this tuesday for a 2 hour premiere.
- The Beast (Thurs @ 10pm on A&E) - Usually a show like this wouldn’t register on my radar, but ever since The Shield concluded I’ve been looking for another gritty police drama to watch. This show features Patrick Swayze as an FBI agent that does things his way (remind you of Vic Mackey?) I don’t know if I’ll be able to get Swayze’s current health situation out of my head while I watch this, but I thought I would give the show a chance regardless.
- Lie To Me (Jan 21st @ 9pm on Fox) – This doesn’t kick off till next week, but the commercials have piqued my interest. It’s about a group of folks that help the police by basically being a human lie detector. I’ll give it a shot to see if the show can live up to the hype.
- 24 and Lost (on tonight @ 8, and Jan 21st respectively) – I don’t watch these shows…I know it’s a sacrilege!?! but a list of upcoming shows would not be complete without them.
I am sure there are many others out there, but this list might keep you busy for awhile. Enjoy!
