The upcoming broadcast season is undoubtedly going to be a good one. At least a whole lot better than the current slate of programming (most networks have ditched their 2012-2013 additions). NBC, CBS, Fox, and ABC have managed to enlist some major talent to headline their new shows for the 2013-2014 lineup, and are now in the process of announcing their pick-ups. It's a rarity for execs to land such names as Rebel Wilson, Gillian Anderson, Robin Williams, Allison Janney, Anna Faris, Sarah Michelle Gellar, and Greg Kinnear at all - let alone all for new series in one year. And so, below are the top ten just-ordered network shows with the most potential!
In honor of this Honey Boo Boo's mother wearing this to her wedding, we've rounded up the most entertaining (read: insane or at least insanely entertaining) reality stars of the past year.
Most reality shows outstay their welcome. Most, however don't put us through innumerous seasons of trite exploitation. Unfortunately, these shows are happy to.
Oh, how the mighty have fallen. Glee has become an eye-roll, a voice-crack, a televised wagging finger - and largely to its own doing.

With series renewals, orders, and cancellations coming in on a daily basis, this week's edition of CRITIC'S CUT serves as a roundup for the 2013-2014 season.

As the network's upfront season orders loom on the calendar, we've compiled a list of ten shows on the brink of cancellation - those that are most likely to sink into the abyss of being yanked from the airwaves. Between mediocre ratings, dragging plotlines, or an ever-changing timeslot, these shows are in definite danger.
Every A-lister's got to start somewhere, even if it's as a convenience store gunman or Veronica Mars' neighbor. In no particular order, here are some of the ten most notable stars guesting on hit television shows before they were stars!
Singer/rapper and wig aficionado, Nicki Minaj, shocked many when she chose to join the judge's panel for the latest season of Fox's AMERICAN IDOL.The new IDOL judge recently chatted with reporters on how she's adjusting to her role on Fox's hit singing competition show, who she thinks may take the title this time around, and more!
Since American Idol has turned into basically a game of has-been musical chairs, we thought we'd cast out the nets on who might just be, theoretically, the producers' worst potential picks for the impending 13th season. I mean, we can't expect mega-divas Nicki Minaj and Mariah Carey to actually outlast Steven Tyler and Jennifer Lopez, can we?

Well, here we are at the season finale and Hannah has all but lost it. In fact, going into this episode pretty much every character on GIRLS has officially become the very worst human being they could possibly be. But for once, Lena Dunham provides a little closure with the finale - or at least a bright spot in their horribly depressing lives.
This week's edition presents the most notable shows in recent years to 'jump the shark.' In other words, those shows whose writers and runners took in absolutely insane directions.
