Sorry for the half post yesterday. I had a brain storming post that got posted. So I'm Updating it and completing some thoughts. Yes!!
This week had a lot of TV premiers and a few season finalies. Now that the summer shows are ending or over, the fall line up is taking it's place. Some shows will air this week too.

This Past Week:
Monday night we had the season premiers of Chuck, The Event, Hawaii 5-0, and Castle. Now Hawaii 5-0 and Castle are on at the same time. Thank you Hulu!
Tuesday night the season finally of Warehouse 13 and the premiers of NCIS and NCIA:LA.
Wednesday night Undercovers premiered.
Thursday night the season premier of Bones and Supernatural
Friday night I don't think anything has started on Fridays yet, or at least nothing I care about.

Predictions!!
This is now where I get to comment on shows and weather or not I'll think the show will make the cut. First up:
Chuck: I love the show and was so happy it was saved in season 3. Anyway, I like the new episode, I love how the bad guys thought Chuck and Morgan were awesomesauce spies when really they were only trying to find someone, Chuck's mom (who will be back in episode 6 I believe). Anyway, I don't know why he didn't share his searching with his mom with Sarah, that was a little annoying and so were some awkward moments. Overall, the episode was good, Chuck will be going back to the spy business, even though he promised Ellie he wouldn't. This show already has a good formula/system/whatever to be successful. The writers just need to keep producing good scripts and this show should make it.
The Event. This new show was kinda confusing. I wasn't paying full attention, but the amount of jumping to the present and back to the past was very confusing, and it happened to multiple characters from multiple perspective. Imagine a jumpier Vantage Point. This show was really trying to play up the mystery of "the Event", but failed, the mystery was too over the top. It seems like NBC is trying to create a show as successful as Lost and Heroes was (back when it was good).
Hawaii 5-0: This show is a remake. I never saw the original, but I liked the first episode so far. The pilot was all about forming the team, that's basically it. I thought that the bad guy in this episode would escape and then there would be a whole season arc about finding Steve's father's killer, but I guess the season story arc will be about police corruption and finding out who the leaks are. The episode was good, but I felt I had seen it all through the previews. The pilot was good, but the show needs to kinda find itself.
Castle: Oh, Castle. This show is awesome. The theme of the episode was about guys calling and blah blah blah. Castle comes back from the Hampton's and Beckett and the team are a bit peeved he doesn't call up. They end up running into Castle at a murder scene when an artist friend of Castle's gets murdered. Beckett and Castle then have a bet, if Castle solves the case first, he gets to stay and keep working with Beckett, if Beckett wins he goes away and leaves her alone. They end up solving it at the same time and there is some speculation as to weather Beckett let Castle win. But awesome!! If the writers keep up the good work, this show can make another season.
Undercovers: The show is about a couple who where in the spy business and end up getting dragged back into the game. They go to Europe to track down someone and find that the thing they were missing in their marriage was action so they stay in the game with their catering business as a cover. The episode was pretty good, it was directed by JJ Abrams if i'm not mistaken. But it really is hard to judge a show by one episode. This one is good, but it was just setting up the series. Luckily it didn't spend much time setting up, because they were retired spies, not need for them to train. The show can definately make it, but the only problem it has to face is that people may be getting too tired of spy dramas. There's Chuck, Covert Affairs, and Burn Notice.

That's it for now. In theme with the shows ending and new beginnings, here is a link to some shows that had incredible cliffhangers that sadly went no where: http://io9.com/5642207/most-frustrating-tv-shows-canceled-on-a-cliffhanger
