Upcoming Shows I Can't Wait To See

Next month a couple of cool shows return, they are:

The Killing: A mystery series about the murder of a teenage girl and how it affects the cops trying to solve her murder, the girl's family, and a politican who may or may not have killed the girl. So many twists to this show. Just rewatched it on Netflix recently and it plays even better without commericals.

Eureka: I covered what this show was about in another blog entry. I just have to say again how much I'm looking forward to this show. Wish it wasn't the final season!

Then in May, one show returns and a new movie in a series of movies airs:

Sherlock: The U.K. has already seen the second series of this brillant show, but America is finally getting it in May. Can't wait. The first season was wonderful. A cool update bringing Sherlock and Watson into a modern day setting. And its works. Well written, well acted. Really good show.

Jesse Stone: Not a regular series, but there have been several movies staring this character. Jesse Stone is played by Tom Selleck (Magnum, Blue Bloods) and is about a small town sheriff solving different cases. Very good movies. Looking forward to the new one!

In June, one of the coolest shows from last year returns:

Falling Skies: If you've seen Walking Dead then think about that show, expect for the zombies. Replace them with Aliens. Falling Skies is a show, much like Walking Dead, thats much more about the characters and them surviving than the overall 'How did this happen?' type of thing. Its a really cool show and I'm glad its coming back for a second season.

July sees the return of another favorite for a final season:

The Closer: This is a really good police drama and has a great cast, especially Kyra Sedgwick who plays Deputy Chief Brenda Johnson. Sad to see this one go. I'm not sure if the spinoff, Major Crimes, will be as good without Sedgwick, but you never know.

There may be other good shows coming soon, but those are the main ones I'm looking forward to.
