Nik:  Alex, if you want to write for TV, you better start watching lots of it. I usually watch the pilot episode of every new show. Some I’ll stick with, most I won’t. Here are a few I plan on checking out and also the shows I already watch:

New: Lucky 7, Sleepy Hollow, Hostages, The Blacklist, The Goldbergs, The Crazy Ones, Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., Betrayal, Hello Ladies, Masters of Sex, The Paradise, Witches of East End, Once Upon a Time in Wonderland, Reign, Dracula, The Originals, The Tomorrow People… I’m pretty sure I’m forgetting some.

Old: Homeland, Revenge, Eastbound and Down, Boardwalk Empire, American Horror Story Coven, Scandal, Parenthood, Modern Family, House of Cards and Orange Is the New Black (on Netflix), Downton Abbey, Game of Thrones, Girls and even though I hate to fess up to Nashville and Grey’s, who doesn’t love watching fictional car accident aftermath and storm episodes! My DVR is going to explode.

Alex:  I think it’s time I get cable.
