What’s on Your TV This Fall: New & Returning Shows

Are you wondering if your favourite tv show coming back for another season?

Overall this was a good year for TV geeks. Niche sci-fi show Fringe has been on the bubble it’s entire run was picked up for a fifth(!!!) and final season, Community the critical and cult darling plagued with low ratings got a pick up and despite some cruel rumours, our beloved Parks and Recreation was picked up for a full 22 episode fourth season!!!

I’ve put together a list of what’s coming up next year, what’s new, what’s coming back, and when it’ll probably be on the schedule.  This isn’t a complete list and I’ll be updating it as more announcements are made.
