There are some really awesome sounding shows coming up this fall on NBC and ABC (CBS has yet to announce their fall schedule and if "How I Met Your Mother" isn't on it...heads will roll, my friend).
Most interesing sounding:
"Pushing Daisies" (ABC) As a young boy, Ned discovers he has the power to bring back the dead when his mother dies while making a pie and his touch revives her. She lives until that evening when she kisses him goodnight and dies again. Ned grows up to become a pie maker, and has a side detective business where he uses his gift to revive the dead to find out their murderers and then touches them again to die. Only problem...one of the "dead" is his childhood sweetheart and he can't bring himself to "kill" her again. Eventually she learns his secret and things become very complicated.
"Sam I Am" (ABC) Christina Applegate stars as a woman who suffers amnesia after an accident and finds out what a horrible person she was. She consequently spends her time trying to right her wrongs and become a better person.
Shows I know I won't watch:
Cavemen- Geico commercials, cavemen...UGH Don't they know that's soooo last week?
NBC Cool Sounding shows:
"Journeyman"- Though it sounds suspiciously like "The Time Traveller's Wife"- a book that I absolutely love- it looks like a really good show. It centers around a reporter, Dan, who jumps back and forth through time without knowing when or where he's going, or even sometimes that he's jumped through time. Can he prevent past tragedies? What will that mean for his present? Watch the preview:
"Bionic Woman" Jamie Summers returns!
Watch a few sneak peeks:
This new Jamie seems a bit more B.A., if you know what I'm saying!
"Chuck" a computer geek opens an email from an old friend and somehow downloads the CIA database into his head:
"Life" a cop spends 12 hard years in jail for a crime he didn't commit, and when is finally freed, walks away with a $50 million settlement. Here's a preview:

It remind me a little of "House"- character driven, acerbic main character. Looks like a good show!

I still don't know how Cavemen made it into the lineup! Here's a funny article I read about the whole commercial-as-pilot phenomenon: http://www.thenewsroom.com/details/353123/Entertainment?c_id=kc
I'd actually kind of like to see some of these!
