Another year and TV is starting again. A few new ones that I’m not sure are worth more than a glance, Zoe is the latest sitcom for Brandy, MTV’s Chronicles based on some fantasy book, Poor Decisions may be just that, and Jane Lynch returns in Angel, while you can’t count out J Lo and Liotta returning to the small screen on the latest cop drama. For returning shows I’m a fan of New Girl and It’s Always Sunny and will resist the final season of Idol.
