Need a little break from studying during the week? Well, here’s a fall TV guide for all the shows you should check out during prime-time hours . We’ve tried to make it as helpful as possible by even including the channels they’re on as well for your viewing pleasure. Enjoy!
Monday
Mondays are usually those days you wish didn’t exist. But fear not! Now you can enjoy a little Monday night TV (aside from football). Steven Spielberg is producing a new show called “Terra Nova,” which premieres Sept. 26 at 8 p.m. on Fox. It’s about a family who travels back to the time of the dinos. Yes, you read correctly. Monday nights will feature some pretty (hopefully) cool dinosaur action a la Jurassic Park. Spielberg won’t let us down.
Tuesday
Buffy Sommers has finally returned to the tube. Sadly, Sarah Michelle Gellar is not returning as her baddie, evil demon-vanquishing, slayer role, but she is going back to TV nonetheless. CW premiered “Ringer” on Tuesday at 9 p.m. The show follows Bridget (Gellar plays two twins in the show) who decides to impersonate her twin. Cue mysterious secrets and a dangerous life you never knew the other experienced on a day-to-day basis.
Wednesday
Take the unconventional TV route, which means it’s time to veer away from the usual channels and head over to SyFy. “Ghost Hunters,” which is only a few episodes into its new season, follows Grant and Jason (and the rest of their awesome team) as they travel all over in search of haunted places. But don’t turn down the show just yet. These guys aren’t ghost chasers. They use logic to try to dispel what people report. New episodes begin at 9 p.m., but you might as well start with reruns.
Thursday
Thursday marks the return of many prime-time shows. The new season of “The Vampire Diaries” begins tonight at 8 on the CW. Season three is opening up with a birthday, a rogue vampire and lots of confusion. Rest assured that this season will be even bigger (and more intense) than last season. Vampires not your thing? “The Office” premiere airs Nov. 3 on NBC at 9 p.m. Michael Scott has gone bye-bye and has been replaced. The first episode will decide the fate of Dunder Mifflin.
