What to Watch: Fall 2017

Do you guys remember when I did this post last fall on what TV shows to watch? Well, I think I did a pretty good job at giving you all some great shows to consider. I mean, Atlanta has won Emmy awards and The Good Place just started its second season and had an amazing season one finale! Speechless, Designated Survivor and Luke Cage did pretty well. But I'm sorry I told you guys to watch Pitch and Notorious. They were pretty shitty, lol.

So here's the list for my most anticipated shows to watch in fall 2017! All of these shows have already premiered with their first episode except for the one on Netflix. But at least that one you can watch the entire season on the same day.

Comedies

The Mayor // ABC: Tuesdays at 9:30pm

This might be the show that you've seen the most promotions for. In real life, there have been many scenarios of non-political people running for office...and winning! So The Mayor sort of plays on that with this comedy about a rapper (played by Brandon Michael Hall) who decides to run for mayor as a publicity stunt until he actually gets elected. It also stars Yvette Nicole Brown and Lea Michele.

Kevin (Probably) Saves the World // ABC: Tuesdays at 10pm

A man who is down on his luck (Jason Ritter -- son of the late comedic talent, John Ritter), meets a warrior for God who tells him that it's now his life mission to save the world. Basically, he's got a good heart, but lacks responsibility and he's been given the biggest responsibility in the world.

Supernatural

The Gifted // Fox: Mondays at 9pm

Stephen Moyer is no stranger to being on a show with ridiculously weird stuff happening all the time (i.e. True Blood). This time around, instead of playing vampire Bill, Moyer and his wife (Amy Acker) are parents to children who possess mutant powers and are forced to go on the run from the government. It's very X-Men meets Heroes.

Ghosted // Fox: Sundays at 8:30pm

This one is actually part supernatural and part comedy. Starring comedy show veterans, Adam Scott and Craig Robinson, Ghosted is about a cynical skeptic and a genius true believer trying to uncover a mystery that could threaten the existence of the human race.

Dramas

Mindhunter // Netflix: Debuts Oct. 13

This one is not for the faint of heart, which is probably why it's on Netflix. Jonathan Groff stars in this show, which is nothing like anything else he's previously done (as he's known for playing Kristoff in Frozen and the funny king in Hamilton and one of many musically talented kids on Glee). In Mindhunter, he plays an FBI agent who teaches police how to deal with serial killers by actually interviewing them. Basically, it gets creepy.
