Friday night used to be pretty much a wasteland when it came to TV shows. People go out on Friday nights so networks used to dump their least interesting shows, or ones they didn’t care much about, at the end of the work week.
Now, with pretty much everyone having a DVR and the networks needing to compete with cable and online, Friday’s TV fare has greatly improved. Case in point are two shows we’re big fans of: Grimm and Hannibal.
Both are new tonight, now that the Olympics are over, and we’ve got previews for both of them for you. We won’t get too much into details about what happens in the new episodes, but you can definitely expect some surprises and a lot of action.
Grimm airs at 9/8C followed by Hannibal at 10/9C on NBC. Check out the previews after the break.

One thing we really love around here is a good, gritty detective story. If it’s well done it can be riveting to watch and as the story unfolds the revelations can often be shocking and very satisfying. That’s one of the hallmarks of a great show.
A prime example of this is HBO’s latest drama True Detective, which stars Woody Harrelson and Matthew McConaughey and is written by Nic Pizzolatto. We won’t spend a lot of time describing the show, but instead will say this: you should be watching it.
It’s that good — especially if you’re a fan of the aforementioned gritty, detective stories. This one’s got grit to spare.
We’ve got a preview of the second episode to share with you today. Check it out after the break.
True Detective airs Sundays at 9/8C on HBO.

There’s a lack of great Sci-Fi shows on TV these days. Sure, occasionally, one comes along, but for the most part, you don’t really see them much, or if you do, they don’t seem to last very long. The new show Helix on Syfy is both great and one we hope lasts a long time.
Coming from Exec. Producer Ron Moore (of Battlestar Galactica fame) and created by Cameron Porsandeh, the debut of the show was one of the most highly rated premieres on Syfy in its history. A new episode airs tonight and we, of course, have a preview of it for you.
In this one we see how things are going for the team sent to investigate a series of bizarre and deadly incidents at a remote research station. Needless to say, things don’t go as planned. In fact, things go really, really bad.
Helix, which stars Billy Campbell, Hiroyuki Sanada, Kyra Zagorsky and Mark Ghanimé airs tonight at 10/9C on SyFy. Check out the preview after the break.

That’s right, it’s Friday. Fortunately, as bad as the week can sometimes get, we can always look forward to this day showing up to help us end the week correctly and get ready for the weekend.
One way Friday helps do that is by providing us with brand new episodes of some of our favorite shows: Grimm and Dracula. And to get you ready for tonights new episodes, we’ve got previews. Duh, of course we do.
First off with Grimm, it’s a bit of domestic bliss as Monroe and Rosalee learn to live together. But all isn’t roses as Nick must do battle against an evil mermaid Wesen. Yep, mermaid.
Then on Dracula, an old friend drops by to cause complications for Greyson. And, of course, Dracula is up to his old tricks again too. We’ve also got a preview for this weeks’s Saturday Night Live with musical guest/host Lady Gaga.
Check out all the previews after the break and look for all the action to start tonight at 9/8C with Grimm.

The more we see and hear about FX’s new series The Bridge, the more we’re interested and looking forward to watching. Mostly because it just looks creepy and cool, and we like that.
Previously, we brought you some previews for the new series. And now, we’ve got another one for you.
In this new one “Someone’s trying to send a message.” Who is it? You’ll just have to watch to find out.
The series premieres July 10th at 10PM E/P on FX. The new video is after the break.

We often make fun of TV networks and question the wisdom of their decisions. However, deep down we know it must actually be a very difficult job deciding what shows to give the green light to and which to send back to the proverbial drawing board.
So, it is with the utmost respect that we present a bunch of previews for Fox’s new Fall shows coming to your TV later this year. We’ve also included the new schedule so you can get an idea of what shows are coming back, when they’re going to air and what new shows you may want to se your DVR for.
For our money, most of these look like a lot of other shows we’ve already seen before. Again, we know it’s difficult and we know networks are losing audience to the Internet, but maybe more of the same isn’t the answer?
Anyway, we do like the looks of Almost Human, but the rest don’t really do it for us. It’s a good thing Fox has decided to bring back Jack Bauer for more 24. They may need to fill some space in the schedule pretty soon.
Check out the previews, and the entire Fall schedule, after the break.

In case you hadn’t heard, the Television Critics had their annual event this week where the networks show them what’s coming up for the new TV season. It’s a fun event that we go to sometimes, although not this time. We were on vacation. You know how it goes.
Anyway, that’s okay because we got some cool previews for the return of some of our favorite shows for you today. Among these are Grimm, Revolution, Deception and 1600 Penn.
Check out all the previews after the break. Look for these shows to return to NBC over the next month or two.

Here’s a bunch of previews for several of NBC’s shows. These all look interesting, Grimm in particular, but we’re also kinda interested in what 1600 Penn has in store.
After all, it features Bill Pullman as the President of the United States, which should be pretty fun. Also, we’ve got previews for Up All Night and Revolution as well, two other shows that are very popular.
Check out all the previews after the break.

With all the great shows and all the networks available to provide you with entertainment, it’s important to point out some shows we really like. Well, it’s important to us at least, and that’s all that really matters.
Some of these shows we like are Syfy’s originals Warehouse 13, Alphas and Lost Girl. All three offer some great characters and often intense drama and stories we enjoy. Plus, you can now enjoy two showings of Alphas on Mondays instead of one.
This new development calls for some previews and previews we have! In fact, for all three shows. Check them all out after the break.
Alphas kicks things off Mondays at 8/7C followed by Warehouse 13. Lost Girl airs Fridays at 9/8C.

While we count the weeks, days and hours until Community returns we can console ourselves a bit with some of NBC’s other programming. Case in point today is the brand new show Awake, which looks to be pretty interesting and features some actors we really like, and one of our long-time favorites, Parks and Recreation.
Starting us off is the new show Awake, starring Laura Allen of the seriously underappreciated Terriers and Jason Isaacs of Harry Potter movie fame as a man who seems to exist in two worlds and neither of them are an ideal place to be. We’ve got some previews for this new show for you today and from what we’ve seen so far, it looks pretty interesting.
Then, we turn our attention to the folks in Pawnee who, as the previews show, are having a bit of an issue with a drinking fountain. This is why I always bring bottled water wherever I go.
Parks and Rec airs at 8:30/7:30C followed by The Office, Up all Night and the premiere of Awake at 10/9C on NBC. Check out all the videos after the break.
