It's got action, intrigue and loads of thrills and chills -- J.J. Abrams works his magic once again with a series that is sure to keep us glued to the television all season.
When Flight 627 lands at Boston’s Logan Airport with no signs of life, a special task force led by FBI Special Agent Olivia Dunham is sent to investigate. After one of the agents is nearly killed, Olivia must go to the only man who can help -- but he has been institutionalized for the past 17 years, and she must let his son in on the secret in order to gain access to his father. As the trio goes in search of answers, they soon realize that Flight 627 was merely a sliver of a much, much larger puzzle.

The spin-off of the hugely successful series from the '90s is easily one of the most-anticipated series of the fall. While fans of the original series are anxious to see what became of their favorite characters, I think younger viewers will find this new cast of fresh faces a welcome change from anything else on television.
Meet the Wilson family, who has just moved to Beverly Hills from the Midwest. Harry Wilson, the family patriarch, will become the new principal at West Beverly Hills High School. Annie and Dixon Wilson aren't exactly thrilled to begin a new school, and having their father as the principal doesn't make it any easier. Kelly Taylor and Brenda Walsh from the original series also appear on 90210.

CBS enters the dramedy realm with this smart and sassy series about finding true love in an uncertain world. I think viewers will easily fall in love with Elizabeth Reaser's character (Bella), who many will recognize from her role as Ava on Grey's Anatomy.

When a psychic tells her that she has already dated her future husband and has to find him in the next year or risk remaining alone forever, Bella must revisit every relationship to find the one right guy. Her close-knit group of friends will help Bella on her journey before her time runs out.
