    THE MOB DOCTOR

    Take one part organized Chicago crime show and one part Chicago hospital show and you've got The Mob Doctor. If the plucky Southside surgeon who's struggling to balance her oath as a doctor with the debt she owes to one of the town's scariest bosses was played by anyone less talented and likable than Jordana Spiro, it wouldn't work. Her co-stars aren't too shabby either, with dreamy Zach Gilford (Saracen! FNL!) and brilliant Zeljko Ivanek (Damages) as fellow doctors.

    Premiere: Monday, September 17, 9pm FOX

    In a sea of how'd they convince anyone that was a good idea pilots, there are ten newbies that you should not miss, that everyone will be buzzing about because they are so transportingly fun. One comedy, The Mindy Project, that's the funniest, sharpest thing I've seen since Happy Endings surprised me a couple years ago, with flawed yet sympathetic people saying things people actually think (and don't always actually say, but that's the entertaining part.) Dramas that bring fears to frightening life like Revolution, The Last Resort, and, in it's own way, 666 Park Avenue. There's a juicy sexy soap, Nashville, and a few crime shows that surpass the genre's norm. The most fun? Arrow on the CW, a deliciously dark take on super-heroism that should be a must-watch for any Avengers or Dark Knight lovers. Update those Tivo Season Passes now!
