It is that time of year when all of the networks are doing there fall and winter finales. I will try to do a wrap up of all of the shows I watch on different days.
Enjoying the fourth season of HOMELAND. Next Sunday is the finale, and I am looking forward to it. There have been many good twists and turns, and the end of each show make you want it to be the following week five minutes later. I hope that they do a fifth season, and I hope that they bring the cast back stateside. Pakistan has been an interesting backdrop, but the idea of the station cheif doing field work and disregarding her subordinate agents has been a little of a stretch.
BOARDWALK EMPIRE had a good ending. Although most of the major characters died, they tied up the story lines pretty well.
NEWSROOM - This also had a good series finale. I was sorry to see one of the major characters go, but I enjoy the connective story that went through the entire season.
THE AFFAIR - I am just two episodes in on this show so far. The different points of view of the same story has een interesting and I am looking forward to see where this goes. Weird seeing the crazy lady from LUTHER playing a emotionally damaged waitress and wife. Dominic West is playing the same character he always seems to.
REVENGE - Was wondering what they were going to do when they brought David Clarke back, and so far it has been good. She be fun to see what he and Emily can do together. Not sure the direction following the fall finale (Daniel's demise) but it should be fun.
CSI - Storyline and characters are still good. They have a new background baddie this season, and the episodes so far involving that have been good. Definitely eager to find out how this shakes out.
I have not started the second season of RESURRECTION and I have only watched the premiere episode of ONCE UPON A TIME. Planning to catch up on these two over the holiday break.

Some new shows
I have enjoyed a few good new shows this TV season.
HOW TO GET AWAY WITH MURDER is an excellent crime show. It is the third of the Shoda Rhimes shows, and it is as good as the other two.
FOREVER is about a guy who is a medical examiner of New York, but he is also immortal. It so far has had goot front stories, and has had a good connective backstory as well.
STATE OF AFFAIRS is solid, but I am still undecided. Katherine Heigl is alright as a CIA agent, but the stroy is a little slow so far. I am still giving it a chance.
CONSTANTINE - I am just two episodes in but I am enjoying it so far. I hope that NBC gives it a chance. I think it can bring in some of the more mystical characters of the DC Universe.
GOTHAM - This is so far my favorite new show. Characters are great, and they chose the actors well. The new character, Fish Mooney, played by Jada Pinkett Smith, is devilishly brilliant. I am looking forward to the Arkham storyline that will begin when it returns.
MADAM SECRETARY - As someone who has a background in political science, I am enjoyinng this show. Like FOREVER, it has both good front and back stories. Enjoying Tea Leoni as the Secretary, and it is good to see Tim Daly on TV again. He is good at playing her husband. The kids story line is a little week, and the only one that is even interesting to watch is the anarchist son.
THE MYSTERIES OF LAURA - I was uncertain about Debra Messing doing drama, but she is good in this. They surrounded her with a good cast, and put in just enough comedy with her character to keep me watching episodes.
