Awake

ABC has picked up 12 new shows, the bulk of which will be canceled by this time next year, but one of which is that new Marvel show from Joss Whedon all the kids have been buzzing about, so hope springs eternal and all that.

Find out what series almost made the list—and which writers need to be bugged about not watching Game Of Thrones.

The TV season is officially over, but no one bothered to tell Awake. Also: People still think they can dance, and an Eagleheart villain thinks he can kill people by scatting.

With season four on the horizon, there’s no need to worry about NBC airing three Community episodes in one night. Also: Michael Britten gets closer to the truth while Chris Monsanto goes Hollywood.

And that's about it.

It’s election night in Pawnee as Parks And Recreation’s fourth season comes to a close. Also: Wolowitz gets married and Andy Bernard infiltrates Dunder Mifflin. 

Perhaps the presence of a part-time Justified player can get you interested in a late-season episode of The Big Bang Theory? Also: Greendale mourns Star-Burns, and Leslie Knope takes the bus.

Live, from New York (again): It’s 30 Rock! Also: The return of Wil Wheaton and turning back the clock in Mystic Falls.

“Knope we can!”: Parks And Recreation resumes its fourth-season campaign. Also: A long trip to the Dreamatorium and the end of TV Club Classic’s Seinfeld coverage. 

The heart of the eagle is upon you, which means Eagleheart must be back. Also: The Dunder Mifflin party-planning committee reconvenes and Up All Night prepares for Stoogemania.

Delocated stages a reunion where the participants are supposed to be horrible human beings. Also: Stephen Hawking goes to Caltech, Ken Burns comes to Greendale (?), and everyone visits Tent City, U.S.A.!

The Secret Circle can do all that, but it’ll never top that (top that). Also: Divisions grow at Greendale, and the 69th best college basketball team in the nation is crowned.  

Archer rides the conclusion of its season finale into… the danger zone. Also: Abed struggles with addiction (to celebrity impersonators) and the adventures of Braxtons not named Toni.

Community is back! Also: Nothing is more important than the fact that Community is back.

It’s time for Unsupervised to take a look at its possible future. Also: Evil babies and the people who make them on CBS and MTV, respectively.

The creator of Lone Star and the new series Awake talks about managing a TV show that failed, and another that takes place in two timelines at once. 

Watch Awake now before its inevitable, disappointing cancellation. Also: Daddy issues for Sterling Archer, a familiar situation at Dunder Mifflin, and Bob Costas talking to people who aren’t Bob Costas.
