NBC.com
Rack em up people its hunting time!

This week NBC have graced us with some news of the shows beaming there way to our screens this fall. We've got a mix of comedy, action, and sit-com so we'd thought being the nice people we are, we'd indulge your senses.
Ok we have 6 Shows ready to slam into your life and mess up your shit and about 11 others thrown in to scoop up the rest of you. I shan't go into detail on all of them, but I'll give you something to sink those pointy little teeth into and seriously if you don't watch TV to unwind then grab your book or start gossiping on FB as this is about to get .... random. Also check our FOX fall line up post HERE

IRONSIDE (Wednesday 10PM)


You watch American Dad? Do you remember Wheels and the Leg-Man? Well they took that idea, gave it a badge, guns, sex, more legs and made it serious!


I'm just pulling your chain, its a remake of the 70s show of the same name but more serious and action packed. Basically a hardened veteran detective gets paralyzed in the line of duty

Predictions?
The cast looks strong and from the trailer alone, I'd watch it. The writing sounds on point and the general plot allows room for some shenanigans and rough justice but will America like it? .... Probably not cause the're EVIL!

The Michael J Fox Show (Thursday 9.30PM)


Do you really need to know anymore? Its Michael J. Fox! Marty McFly himself, the man is an inspiration to us all.

Its not a documentary or reality TV show, lets get that bit clear first, its a comedy about Michael J Fox with his Parkinson’s and him returning to work after ages away and how he copes and powers his way through it all.

Predictions?
Its going to be a charmer, you'll find it hard to hate this and from the trailer it's got good direction, its not tiptoeing around the subject and actually uses Michael's situation to enhance the show, so I think we've got a keeper, well at least the potential for 2 seasons.

The Blacklist (Monday 10PM)


Ooo this one's going to be good, I've seen some detective action shows but this one has moments that feel like Law Abiding Citizen and Silence of the Lambs; minus the eating people bit and swap the revenge on the law to a list of people Raymond "Red" Reddington (James Spader) wants taken "care" off.

Predictions?
Its a smart action drama, with enough plots and underhand moments to make you enjoy the villain. Keep an eye on this one folks, it's going to leave a mark even if it lasts only 1 season.

Welcome to the Family (Thursday 8.30PM)


You know Modern Family? Yeah this is nothing like that, here we follow a young couple who just after graduating high school find out their going to have a baby, ruining the plans their parent had in place all these years and the high-jinks that follow.

Predictions?
It looks hilarious and will probably do well for the first half of the season. Following their shenanigans, disasters and break-downs will keep us fairly entertained, expect a nice 2 seasons or more.

Well that's it from this gremlin, enjoy your glass of wine and shot of whiskey, Chang demands it.
