Peps' TV Series Rundown: 2014 Winter Premiere and Return Dates

Just a quick recap on my 2013 fall TV series viewing list, I decided to drop a few comedy titles, namely, The Millers (despite my growing crush on Will Arnett) and Super Fun Night (which is relegated to "I'll-watch-it-only-if-I-see-that-it's-on-TV-by-accident"). Titles that I gave a shot were Mom and Dads (I swear this isn't a theme), but after a few episodes in for both, I decided that it was right not to include them in my must-watch list.

On the upside, I'm all over the absolutely fun Sleepy Hollow (Ichabod + Abbie = Ichie; best shipper name ever, even if I'm not exactly rooting for a romantic connection) and Almost Human (Kennex + Dorian = best bromance this TV season). But it's The Blacklist that has earned my absolute devotion this season. If you don't enjoy the great writing and the absolute perfection of James Spader's performance as Raymond "Red" Reddington, then you are an unfeeling person who has no right to the title of couch potato. NBC, do not muck this one up, I beg you.

With much to look forward to in the next couple of months (How I Met Your Mother ending in March! Community and Dan Harmon are back together! Suburgatory! No more Mariah Carey on American Idol!), I find that my TV series viewing for 2014 is off to a great start.

Again, the dates below are the US premiere schedule, so local TV fans from the Philippines will have to add plus one to day and date. This season's list doesn't include new titles, since the more buzz-worthy freshmen offerings won't be premiering until spring. Although, I might be giving Helix a try.
