SEPTEMBER 20, 2012 - THURSDAY NIGHT G WAR
Thursdays are big nights for television...and this year is no different!
You will find a lot of the same, and then there are some changes...
THURSDAYS AT 9/8C
Key Battle: Glee vs. Grey's Anatomy
Glee will aim to take a bite out of Grey's Anatomy's similar female-friendly audience. Also in the mix: New series Beauty and the Beast on The CW, while Person of Interest, The Office and Parks and Recreation return in the same slots.
Watch: Glee
Season 4 will toggle between McKinley High and Rachel's exploits in New York City, a format that Fox Entertainment President Kevin Reilly dubs a "show within a show." Who doesn't want to see how — and if — Ryan Murphy's brainchild can pull it off?
DVR: Grey's Anatomy, Parks and Recreation
You wanna see how they make it out of the woods and if anyone else dies, right? So you just skip to those parts. Grey's is still a dependable performer, and while the plane crash, Lexie's death and Teddy's exit will spark more story lines, it still feels a little been-there-done-that, especially if the first half of the season is everyone in mourning. Again. (See: Season 6.) Meanwhile, Parks and Rec is sure to wring hilarity from Leslie's city council seat that you'll want to savor over and over again.
Skip: Beauty and the Beast, Person of Interest
Sorry, but we can't really picture Kristin Kreuk as a tough cop. And let's just say the beast-morphing effects are almost as laughable as this. Person of Interest is a solid performer, but hardly a breakout hit that anyone thought it could be this time last year, and it's currently unavailable online or for download. Maybe that'll change this season? Although, as a male-skewing show, POI is perfect counterprogramming to Glee and Grey's.
Watch online: The Office
The Office is on its last legs.
