Today’s TV Addict Top 5: New Fall Shows We’re Really Really Excited For*
With the Fall TV Season just around the corner, this TV Addict can’t help but notice a distressing lack of excitement surrounding the new season. And while we’re the first to admit that September 2010 may be lacking an obvious breakout hit like say a GLEE or MODERN FAMILY, there are certainly more than a few reasons to be excited. With LONE STAR’s James Wolk, Adriana Pallicki, and Eloise Mumford just the tip of iceberg.
LONE STAR
Move over GOSSIP GIRL, there’s a new man in town. That man: Fall TV’s next big thing and Kyle Chandler look-a-like James Wolk, who fans will soon be swooning over as Bob Allen — a con artist torn between two lives and two woman in separate parts of Texas. Executive producers Chris Keyser and Amy Lippman (PARTY OF FIVE) call it “DALLAS without the Cheese.” We call it a guilty pleasure we don’t have to feel guilty about obsessing over. Premieres September 20 on FOX (GlobalTV in Canada) [See Trailer]

First Look: HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER’s “Big Days”
Well, the good news it that theTVaddict.com is the first to bring you a first look at “Big Days,” the highly-anticipated sixth season premiere of HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER. The bad news is that the CBS publicity team seems to have taken a page from the LOST playbook by carefully reviewing each and every promotional photo to ensure that they reveal very little information absolutely nothing with regards to Michael Ausiello’s recent scoop on the top-secret, game-changing mother of all twists. But don’t take our word for it, see for yourself — including the not-so-surprising return of a girl from Ted’s past — after the jump.
