Going Up and Going Down

As you know it is renewal or death season for our favourite shows again and i thought i would just give you a quick run down of all the shows that i am interested in. This may well change as the networks sort themselves out so keep checking back.

Okay so here are the renewed:

90210- This will definitely be returning for a fourth season and was announced quite early on, shame the network could not do that for One Tree Hill. We are currently finishing the third season in the next couple of weeks.



Glee- This was renewed ages ago and although we have yet to finish the second season here in the UK you can be sure they will be back for more.

Gossip Girl- This will be finishing in the next couple of weeks and the next season looks good to go but the season after that does not look so good, as a lot of the cast have talked about moving on and they are no longer under contract.

Parenthood- This show is only just starting in the UK but was a big success in the states and they have managed to get a third season. Well done guys, i love you!

Pretty Little Liars- Okay so i have only seen  the first half of the first season because Viva are being really annoying but it has been renewed and will be back on abcfamily this summer.




The Secret Life of The American Teenager: Okay so I have really gotten into this show but i am not very far along yet, i am still trying to catch up but it looks awesome and obviously it is because the third season will finish in a couple of weeks but it has already been renewed for a fourth season.


Southland- Okay so i have only seen the first season of this but hopefully it will be coming back for more now that it has been renewed in the states for a fourth season.

True Blood- Okay so I am still catching up on this but it has been renewed for a fourth season which will be airing in the next month or so, so keep your eyes peeled.

The Vampire Diaries- This one will be coming back for more for definite, and has been renewed for the third season.

The Good Wife- Okay so i am still only on the first season but it is a cert that this will be back for a third season.


Melissa and Joey (abcfamily)- They will be returning for a second season real soon, at the end of next month i think.

Heartland- Okay so I know that this show is only just showing the second season in the UK but there is much much more to come as they have just started to film season 5.



Nikita- After milking the decision for all its worth they have finally confirmed the renewal for the second season.

One Tree Hill- Although the eighth season has yet to be aired in the UK they have finally been confirmed for another season.
















Maybes:

Make it or Break it- This will just finish the current season on E4 next week but abcfamily is already showing the next season so that one is good for at least another season. But things are not looking so good for the third season especially with one of the stars having left the show at the end of season 2.

Desperate Housewives looks like it should do well and come back for what is it now? the EIGHTH season, we are only just on the second half of season seven here but I think it should be back for more and more and more....

The Mentalist- they would be crazy to canncel this but still nothing has been confirmed, so fingers crossed.

Hellcats- Okay so this has just finished its first season in the states and it is part way through here on MTV but I don't have MTV so I have yet to see it but i am looking forward to it.

Leverage- This has been renewed for season 4 previously in the year but season 5 is still unclear but i would not be surprised.







Its a Gonner: 


Life Unexpected- This is still listed on the CW site but the producer and cast have all moved on to other projects, also the fact that the second season was only shown in the afternoons here in the UK suggests even if it does come back it will be a record programme.





Brothers and Sisters- There were rumours about it coming back but it did not work out for them.

The Event- It's a gonner and it left us even more confused than we were watching it.

Human Target- They just managed a second season but their luck ran out when getting a third.







Newbies:

Switched at Birth- This is a  show on abcfamily and has not yet been picked up by anyone in the UK but it looks good. It is about yes you guessed it, two girls who were switched at birth and of course have now grown up in two totally different places and families but they are trying to work things out and get along.

The Nine Lives of Chloe King- This is a bit of a supernatural drama that abcfamily have come up with, kind of a younger cat woman from the trailers, this has also not been picked up by anyone in the UK but hopefully it will be, it looks good.



Charlie's Angels- This is a remake of the original TV show done by abc in America, it has yet to be picked up in the UK yet but i feel sure that it will be soon.

Suburgatory- This looks hilarious and it is on the abc in America which has made some of the best comedy TV shows. It has yet to be picked up in the UK but i hope it is:




Revenge: This looks hilarious and of course it stars the woman who played Rebecca in Brothers and Sisters so i am quite excited. Please please pick this up in the UK. Maybe More 4?



Once Upon a Time:
This is by the same people who made Lost so i am not completely sure but it looks interesting. What do you think?



Last Man Standing- This looks hilarious and i really hope it comes to the UK pretty damn soon:



Chalies Angels- Girl power! Okay so i don't think it is going to be amazing but it will be entertaining enough for an hour a week i think:



Apartment 23: Okay so it has got one of the girls from Gilmore Girls and it looks hilarious so i am happy, i will be watching when it moves overseas:



Awake: This looks amazing, and totally confusing but i will definitely be watching this when it gets picked up over here, although it kind of looks like it could be quite sad.



Grimm- This looks really good, i like the idea of real life and fairytales mixing together, i just hope that it is as good as it looks:


Franklin and Bash:
This looks hilarious! i really hope that TNT manage to get this to the UK soon, maybe 5*?


Breakout Kings: Okay so this looks really interesting, it does not look like other cop shows:



New Girl: This looks hilarious!



I hate my teenage daughter:

Update

Okay so here is a quick update with quite a lot packed in so bear with me.

So most of my fave shows are taking a break over Christmas (Desperate Housewives, Vampire Diaries and Gossip Girl) but I have to say they have all managed to leave me hungry for more, Susan being almost dead on the pavement being the best cliff-hanger. I didn’t see what happened with Gabby’s biological daughter as my TV was having a moment but I thought the way they have played out that especially Juinata’s finding out. I am glad that all the bad feeling is gone between the housewives and the gay guys, they do seem to make life fun around the street. But here is a great promo for the next episode:



Vampire Dairies was really good this week with a lot going on. It was heart breaking every second Tyler and Caroline were on screen and it was good to see both of them with more screen time as they are both very awesome characters. It was also nice to see some good old sibling squabbles between Elena and Jeremy, and of course like with most of these episodes Damon shone, although I do think that the whole finding out if the new girl is a wolf or not was a little long winded.



Gossip Girl was also very good, I loved the way they brought everything together and it was good to see Blair and Dan on screen together they seem to have great chemistry when trying to save Serena. It was also good to see Jenny on screen even if it was only for a few moments; I do hope she gets a bit more screen action when the series returns in the new year. I also love the last song in this episode, below is a video of it, Coming Home:


I have also found a promo for the next episode:



Okay so also since I last checked in there was the explosive last episode of Life Unexpected season 1, I really love this show and am a little disappointed that there will not be a season 3 although season 2 looks to be explosive and I can’t wait. Here is a promo to keep you hooked:



On the mention of really good cancelled shows, Dark Blue has recently been cancelled by it’s home network TNT. I am really upset about this as this is one of the best cop shows I have seen in a while but I am still going to watch season 2 when it comes round again.



You may also know that I am doing a episode by episode blog post about Gilmore Girls, I have been trying to update this as quickly as possible but as with all best laid plans it did not go entirely to plan with me now almost a week behind but have no fear people I will be back to this soon, I have not had a chance this week at all and I am sorry.

As you know Veronica Mars one of my most favourite programmes has just come to the end of its run again but have no fear I have discovered something new and almost as exciting. I have really gotten into Everwood in the last week or so, it stars, Emily VanCamp, a favourite from Brothers and Sisters. The rest of the cast is also pretty amazing. Of you have not yet seewn this TV show and I cannot believe that you haven’t, it is all about a man who moves his son and daughter to a small town called Everwood after his wife dies, they of course with any small town (think Gilmore Girls) meet some quirky characters but it seems to work for them.

Also this week we had the double bill of the final couple of episodes of Make it or Break it and I have to say I love this show, I cannot wait for it to come back again.



Leverage was also really good the past couple of weeks, although I have not seen the latest one so I will be interested to see how they cope without an office and all going in different directions but I am sure they will work it out, they have to I am really excited to see what happens with this.

Pretty Little Liars is kind of annoying me a bit now, I don’t see it going anywhere, but I will stick with it in the hope that it will get better.

Okay so I know I have already said this in another post but 90210 is coming back guys! SENIOR YEAR BABY! HELL YEAH! Now I know I have been asking for this for ages but now that it is here I remember how bad the storylines have been in the past, hopefully this year will be better, I mean we have so much to talk about, what with the assumed rape, the drunken car crash and the evil guy setting fire to the boat but the most important thing in my mind at least was Annie and Liam. Here is a promo


Also brand new in January is Glee, now I know I am way too far behind in this as it is almost half way through in the US but of course being the UK we have only just started it now. So here is a promo:


In my browsing of many different TV websites I have decided I have to see Melissa and Joey, it looks hilarious.


Okay so i think i have covered everything, i will continue putting up the lists i started.
