New Network TV Shows That Are Worth Watching
HuffPost
COVID continues to impact the fall TV season, but there are several promising new shows, like FOX's "The Big Leap" and ABC's "The Wonder Years."
Once upon a time, network shows were appointment television. Now, with more TV than ever before, with most shows available at all hours of the day on a host of channels and streaming services, broadcast networks are no longer dominant. But network shows can still bring in reliable ratings, and the traditional fall TV season is still a good time to discover new shows.
This is the second consecutive fall TV seasons that’s been altered by the COVID-19 pandemic; as a result, only a handful of new network shows will launch over the next few weeks. Here are a few that seem promising so far, based on the initial episodes. Each follows the familiar rhythms of network TV — while also exemplifying how the familiar can be comforting and worth tuning in for each week.
