TV FALL PREVIEW CANADA: New Girl, Camelot, X-Factor, Ringer and Pan-Am among promising new shows this season












New Girl, Camelot and Pan-Am among promising new shows this season


The first thing you need to know about the new fall TV season, officially underway Sept. 19 - the night after the Emmy Awards - is that, as new seasons go, this one is middling to mediocre.


There are no clear winners nor runaway front-runners, no Mad Men or Modern Family that you can point to and make appointment-destination viewing.


The good news is that there are no obvious losers, either; nothing so unremittingly awful that you're left wondering how it made it on the air in the first place.

The next thing you need to know about the new fall season is that there's something for everyone, and some of that something is worth seeing, if only once, to try it out.

The X Factor will appeal to many viewers, for example, though not anyone with an aversion to reality-TV singing competitions. Similarly, there are a handful of promising new dramas for those who like drama, and a couple of genuinely witty, breezy sitcoms for those who like lighter fare.

Here's an introductory look, then, at 10 newcomers that stand out from the pack.

The X Factor


CTV/Fox, premieres Sept. 21



It may not sound original, or particularly inspired, but The X Factor - Simon Cowell's talent competition with a $5-million recording contract awaiting the winner(s) - has a discernible buzz in an otherwise buzz-free fall.

There are no sure things in show business, but The X Factor is close. There's no indication that the audience appetite for TV singing competitions has waned, as witness the success of The Sing-Off and The Voice and continuing near-record ratings for America's Got Talent.

The audience will get fed up with TV talent competitions eventually, but that's not going to happen with The X Factor. Early hints suggest the scale is bigger and splashier than anything seen before - the audition shows alone were staged in 4,000-seat auditoriums - and the bickering between judges is more intense, even in the show's early stages.

Cowell has been out of the North American TV spotlight for a full year, so it's easy to forget what he brings to the table. An early highlight reel of Cowell's creative put-downs, Simon Cowell's greatest hits, if you will (e.g., "That was like running over 25 cats on the freeway; I'm just being honest with you,") is a reminder that Cowell is in a league of his own when it comes to sheer surliness.

Combine Cowell's grumpy demeanour with Paula Abdul's lunacy - judging from the early clips, Ms. Abdul appears to be as loopy and not-of-this-planet as she ever was - and you have the perfect recipe for train-wreck TV.

And if reality TV teaches us anything, it's that audience purely loves a train wreck.

American Horror Story


FX Canada, Oct. 31

It's hard to know where to begin. Ryan Murphy and Brad Falchuk's modern-day haunted-house tale is startling - literally startling, as in, jolt the bejeezus out of one - as well as audacious, potentially addictive and deeply disturbing.

Murphy and Falchuk co-created Glee, but American Horror Story is closer in tone and spirit to Murphy's earlier, edgier slasher show, Nip/Tuck, about a pair of morally challenged plastic surgeons. Based on its what-the-hell-just-happened opening hour, American Horror Story is a ghost story unlike any you've seen on TV before.

Murphy says he looked to Nicolas Roeg's 1973 art-house classic Don't Look Now for primary inspiration, but American Horror Story owes a debt, too, to other, equally influential film thrillers, from The Exorcist to The Blair Witch Project.

The cast ensemble - Friday Night Lights' Emmy nominee Connie Britton, Dylan McDermott, Taissa Farmiga (the young girl in The Lovely Bones), film veteran Frances Conroy and Jessica Lange as American Horror Story's seriously deranged next-door neighbour - are at the top of their form, and there are moments in American Horror Story that are unforgettable. And not in a friendly way.

There are a lot of new dramas vying for your attention this fall, but none - not one - will have people talking the way American Horror Story will.

Terra Nova

Citytv/Fox, Sept. 26

As a family adventure, Terra Nova is epic. It's hokey and corny as all get-out: the rebellious teenager, the career-driven mother, the well-meaning but morally conflicted father, the adorable baby daughter, etc. It's also eye-filling and steeped in wonder when showing off dinosaurs from 85 million years into the past.

Its strength is also its weakness, though. There's something for everyone, but not enough of any one thing to satisfy either the diehard adventure fan or the incurable romantic. It's not tough or thrilling enough to cut it as an all-out adventure, and it's not emotionally satisfying enough to make it as a memorable family drama.

It does have its moments, though. Jason O'Mara, Stephen Lang, Shelley Conn and Jenna, Alta., native Landon Liboiron front a likable cast of actors, and the premise has promise: A family flees back in time to escape a dystopian future where overcrowded cities and a ruined eco-climate threaten to extinguish the human race. The opening hour moves along at a decent pace, and there's enough of a cliffhanger to hook the viewer back for more.

The real test, as always, will come in the second and third weeks. In the end, Terra Nova is worth a visit. Whether you choose to stay, though, will depend largely on what happens next.

Hell on Wheels


AMC, Nov. 6





"We opened a dark door and the devil stepped in," a cowpoke says in the confession booth, in the opening moments of AMC's filmed-in-Alberta period western about the building of the Union Pacific Railroad through the Nebraska Territory of the late 1800s.

Hell on Wheels is a western, but it's no Wagon Train. Anson Mount, the rapper Common and Colm Meaney - utterly convincing as an Al Swearengen-style railroad baron determined to tear up the rolling prairie no matter the cost - are the main players in a period tale that plays like a Shakespearean tragedy played out against a bucolic backdrop of grassy plains and rolling thunderclouds.

Hell on Wheels won't suit all tastes - it's dark, slow-burning and not exactly brimming with optimism - but for those who like their westerns gritty and realistic, they don't get much better than this.

Inevitable comparisons with HBO's late, still lamented Deadwood are a little unfair: Hell on Wheels is its own tale, and set in a different time - broader in scope, more eye-filling and closer to the pioneer TV westerns of yesterday, but with a modern sensibility. Social issues of the day, such as lingering racism, aboriginal land claims, rapacious greed and unchecked capitalism, all come into play, but thankfully not in an obvious, beat-'em-over-the-head way. Hell on Wheels is unlikely to single-handedly revive the TV western, but it's a heckuva start.

New Girl Citytv/Fox, Sept. 20



Every so often, a vaguely familiar face in a new sitcom grabs the screen with such vim and irrepressible vigour that it practically defies one to look away. Zooey Deschanel is simply extraordinary in the wry, witty new sitcom New Girl, about an unlucky-in-love singleton and unapologetic Dirty Dancing fan who moves in with three slobbish but well-meaning manfellas.

The premise is simple but the execution is anything but. New Girl may be simple, but it's far from simple-minded, thanks to Deschanel's uncanny comic timing and innate likability. Just when you think you have New Girl pegged as a gender flip on Three's Company, this wonderful, unpredictable sitcom throws a curve out of left field.

Combine Deschanel's comic ability with some witty, clever repartee - "I guess I can't hide my crazy," Deschanel's character says at one point, only to be told, "Well, you're not trying very hard" - and the result is the sharpest, funniest relationship comedy since The New Adventures of Old Christine.

Up All Night


CTV Two/NBC, Sept. 14

First New Girl, and then Up All Night. TV comedy didn't die; it was just sleeping for a while.

Up All Night, Saturday Night Live vet Emily Spivey's parenthood-themed comedy, starring Christina Applegate and Will Arnett as sleep-deprived new parents, just might be the Mad About You for a new generation of TV viewers.

From its quiet, almost wistful opening scene in a too-small bathroom, where the young marrieds talk about the joys and tribulations of being new parents ("Are you ready for this?") to its wacky closing moments in a karaoke bar (yes! karaoke!), Up All Night pulls off the nifty trick of being both annoying and oddly endearing. Spivey has a genuine ear for the way real-life couples talk, and Applegate and Arnett bring a wealth of sitcom acting experience to a script that's both light and heavy on life's little foibles.

There's a nod to Arnett's Toronto roots, too. Arnett's character is a frustrated former hockey prospect and NHL addict ("Always take care of your quads," he tells his infant daughter absurdly at one point, "and your quads will always take care of you"), and there's a real onscreen chemistry between him and Applegate, even when their characters are bickering.

Word to the wise, by the way. If you want the baby to sleep, it's probably not a good idea to pop a champagne cork.

Camelot


CBC, Sept. 13



Camelot is not your grandfather's Camelot. This new version, conceived for the U.S. cable channel Starz - home of Spartacus: Gods of the Arena - has more in common with The Tudors than it does the Alan J. Lerner musical of yore. And small wonder: This new Camelot hails from The Tudors' head writer Michael Hirst and Torchwood/Doctor Who writer Chis Chibnall.

As with The Tudors, the new version of Camelot takes a familiar legend and turns it inside out, infusing it with a modern sensibility and an undercurrent of modern-day sex, politics and sexual politics.

Joseph Fiennes, of Shakespeare in Love fame and infamy, puts his own stamp on the familiar fairy-tale character of Merlin that's unlike any previous interpretation.

And Jamie Campbell Bower, most recently seen as the younger incarnation of Gellert Grindelwald in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, makes a credible Arthur in Camelot's portrait of the once-and-future king as a young man.

Camelot takes itself seriously, and it wants you to, too. It's not as adult or sophisticated as The Tudors, let alone The Borgias, but it stands out as an alternative to the usual spate of new cop dramas and suburban soap operas.

Prohibition


PBS, Oct. 2

Any new season feels a little wanting without a new documentary epic from filmmaker Ken Burns.

And while Prohibition, Burns' detailed, exhaustive three-night, five-hour look back at the years between the passage of the U.S. Constitution's 18th Amendment in 1919 to its repeal with the 21st Amendment in 1933 isn't Burns' best work, it's still informative and entertaining in its own way.

Prohibition opens with a quote from Mark Twain - "Nothing so needs reforming as other people's habits" - and the first couple of hours end with a caution from Burns' narrator, Peter Coyote: "Making prohibition the law of the land was one thing. Enforcing it would be another."

And how.

Between the usual Burnsian facts and figures, related in the filmmaker's inimitable style and gift for storytelling, and its overall message of self-improvement through self-restraint, lies a remarkable tale.

Think on this, for example: By 1830, the average American over 15 years of age drank the equivalent of 88 bottles of whiskey a year, three times as much as their 21st-century descendants.

Why, just thinking about it is enough to drive one to drink.

Pan Am


CTV/ABC, Sept. 25



There are two glossy, misty-eyed paeans to nostalgia on the broadcast networks this fall, one good, one not-so-good. Pan Am is the more promising of the two.

Christina Ricci, Kelli Garner, Margot Robbie and Karine Vanasse (the actress from Drummondville, Que., who co-produced and appeared in the 2009 indie film Polytechnique) play flight attendants for one of the world's great airlines during the golden age of jet travel, when the Boeing 707 was the star of the skies and airline passengers weren't cattle to be herded into tight quarters, to be poked and prodded like farm animals being led to slaughter.

Pan Am may yet turn out to be a disappointment, but it's off to a flying start, thanks to writer Jack Orman, a veteran of the long-running ensemble drama ER, and director Thomas Schlamme, a multiple Emmy-winner for The West Wing during that series' heyday.



From Pan Am's nostalgia-soaked soundtrack of Sinatra standards ("Come fly with me, let's fly, let's fly away") to its romantic, eye-filling skyscapes (it's always sunny at this airport, and that sky-blue Pan Am jet is always taxiing to the runway in the background at that exact moment Pan Am's characters are gathering in the departure lounge) this new ensemble drama is a touch of class in a new TV season notably short on glamour and class.

Add the social tumult of the times - Pan Am is set in the late 1960s, during the height of the Civil Rights Movement, Vietnam, the rise of feminism and Flower Power - and the result is one the fall's most distinctive, promising new social dramas.

Pan Am isn't first-class, exactly, but early evidence suggests it's better than being stuck in coach.

Ringer


The CW, Sept. 13; Global, Sept. 16






Nothing succeeds in TV quite like imitation, and this fall is no different. The broadcasts networks are practically falling over each other in their desperate bid to find the new Desperate Housewives, even if it means crossing it with stalker-thrillers like Sleeping with the Enemy.

Despite a wildly uneven performance by Sarah Michelle Gellar as identical twin sisters as unlike each other as it's possible for twins to be, Ringer is the best of this fall's fear-thy-neighbour thrillers.

Gellar plays a hardscrabble, down-on-her-luck young singleton who's been placed in witness protection on the eve of a high-profile murder trial in which she's expected to give crucial evidence. She panics on the day of her testimony and goes on the run, with both the bad guys and good guys in hot pursuit.

She returns to the seaside community where she grew up and trades identities with her twin sister, a socialite with money to burn and connections to match, only to have it all go awfully - if somewhat predictably - wrong.

A lot is asked of Gellar in the part, and there are moments when it seems as if she isn't quiet up to the job. It's a game, dogged try, though, from the actor an entire generation of young women grew up watching and wanting to be like, in Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

Ringer benefits, too, from a sturdy ensemble of supporting players, especially Lost's Nestor Carbonell as a tireless government agent. And some of Ringer's story twists are truly jarring.

Not as jarring as American Horror Story, perhaps, but still. Enough to keep one awake through the next commercial break.

CW brings us their new TV series Ringer starring Sarah Michelle Gellar or SMG! So if you can feel the hype on what can this show offer, well just check the pilot episode synopsis of Ringer below.












Sarah Michelle Gellar stars as a woman who, after witnessing a murder, goes on the run, hiding out by assuming the life of her wealthy identical twin sister – only to learn that her sister’s seemingly idyllic life is just as complicated and dangerous as the one she’s trying to leave behind.







■Bridget is six months sober and starting to turn her life around when she is the sole witness to a professional hit.

■Despite the assurances of her FBI protector, Agent Victor Machado, Bridget knows her life is on the line.

■She flees to New York, telling no one, not even her Narcotics Anonymous sponsor, Malcolm. In New York, Bridget reunites with her estranged twin, Siobhan.

■Wealthy, pampered and married to the strikingly handsome Andrew Martin, Siobhan lives what appears to be a fairy tale life – a life where no one knows that Bridget exists.







■The sisters seem to be mending their frayed relationship, until Siobhan disappears mysteriously, and Bridget makes the split decision to take on her sister’s identity.

■She discovers shocking secrets, not only about her sister and her marriage, but also about Siobhan’s best friend, Gemma, and Gemma’s husband, Henry. And when someone tries to kill Bridget in her sister’s penthouse, she realizes she is no safer as Siobhan than she is as herself.

■The series stars Sarah Michelle Gellar as Bridget and Siobhan, Kristoffer Polaha as Henry, Ioan Gruffudd as Andrew Martin, Nestor Carbonell as Agent Victor Machado and Tara Summers as Gemma.

Ringer is scheduled on Tuesdays after another great series 90210.

She is unaware of Annie's real career, knowing only Annie's cover—that she works in acquisitions at the Smithsonian Museum.[11] In season 2, episode 10, Annie tells Danielle the truth about her job and Danielle, upset over being lied to all this time, demands Annie move out.

In January 2010, the Covert Affairs pilot received a 10 episode order.[22][26] Sendhil Ramamurthy was added to the cast as a CIA officer, replacing Lively's character,[27] along with Emmanuelle Vaugier in a recurring role as a journalist.[28]



The series is executive produced by Doug Liman and David Bartis and co-executive produced by Jonathan Glassner.[1][29] The series features extensive scenes filmed in live locations such as the pilot episode's action in Toronto serving as Washington, D.C.[22][28]



The second season began filming in March, 2011.
