2012 Premiere Dates


The end is nigh! As you know, the world will end in 2012—science and the Mayans have told us so. In the meantime, however, we’ve got a better ending coming up: the end of the doldrums that are the winter hiatus.

  4. Can´t wait for Vampire Diaries, Supernatural, Castle, Up all Night and Nikita. Really, you should give the show a chance!

    You can make it into your new Year resolutions. It´s worth it.

    Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

  5. Don't you guys occasionally watch/review the BBC's Sherlock? Because Series 2 of that starts on January 1st. :)

  9. Eek, my bad. This makes the two promos posted for "A Scandal in Belgravia" a horrible, horrible tease for those of us in the US.

  10. I managed to catch the preview of 'A Scandal in Belgravia' a couple of weeks ago, and it was just breathtakingly good TV. I didn't unreservedly love the Sherlock series finale, but this one might actually be up there with the best episodes Steven Moffatt has ever written of anything (kinda counting the hours til I can watch it again this week now...!)
