And so it begins… For new fall network series I’ll try to denote repeats of pilots, personally I’m a little overbooked until I rule stuff out so it’s nice to have some scheduling options.
Monday
- Tennis (CBS, 1pm) – The rain delay is scheduled to kick men’s finals ’til Monday.
- Monday Night Football (ESPN, 7pm) Season Premiere – Patriots at Dolphins.
- Kate Plus 8 (TLC, 9pm) Series Finale – Please tell me I won’t have to hear anything else about her.
- The Best Thing I Ever Ate (Food, 10pm) Season Premiere – All-American tastings.

- 90210/Ringer (CW, 8/9pm – Ringer replays 9/16 8pm, 9/19 9pm) Season/Series Premiere – Never got on board with new 90210 but might get on board with the new Sarah Michelle Geller as twin playing a twin with perhaps some twists and drama.
- Parenthood (NBC, 10pm) Season Premiere – I need to remind myself what kind of trouble they were into last season.

- Up All Night/Free Agents (NBC, 10/10:30pm – replays 9/15 8:30/9:30pm, 9/17 9/9:30pm) Series Premieres – The first could be funny while the second is supposed to stink.
Thursday
- The Vampire Diaries/The Secret Circle (CW, 9/10pm – SS replays 9/16 9pm) Season/Series Premiere – Vampires and then witches, which I will check out, might be dumb but it’s got that cute girl from Life Unexpected.
- Angels Among Us (CMT, 9pm) Series Premiere – Real life divine intervention?
