I remember a time when the fall premieres last a week, maybe two. Nowadays, the premieres go on for a couple months. If you are like me it’s very hard to keep track of when your favorite shows return, let alone when the new shows start airing.
So in an effort to make your TV viewing pleasure easier, I’ve compiled a list of the premiere dates from various sources including TVGuide.com and TV Guide Magazine. Hope this helps you find your favorites – new and old.
