The Fall 2014 Prime Time season begins tonight, but the first Prime Time Crime series and season premieres start tomorrow. Here's what we'll be watching and recording (all times ET/PT) …
8 PM — Fox. Gotham (new series). The good. The evil. The beginning.
Everyone knows the name Commissioner Gordon. He is one of the crime world's greatest foes, a man whose reputation is synonymous with law and order. But what is known of Gordon's story and his rise from rookie detective to Police Commissioner? What did it take to navigate the multiple layers of corruption that secretly ruled Gotham City, the spawning ground of the world's most iconic villains? And what circumstances created them — the larger-than-life personas who would become Catwoman, The Penguin, The Riddler, Two-Face and The Joker?
This origin story of the great DC Comics super-villains and vigilantes reveals an entirely new chapter that has never been told. From executive producer/writer Bruno Heller ("The Mentalist," "Rome"), GOTHAM follows one cop's rise through a dangerously corrupt city teetering between good and evil, and chronicles the birth of one of the most popular super heroes of our time.
Starring Ben McKenzie as James Gordon, who as a boy romanticized the city as a glamorous and exciting metropolis where his late father once served as a successful district attorney. Now, two weeks into his new job as a Gotham City detective and engaged to his beloved fiancée, Barbara Kean, Gordon is living his dream — even as he hopes to restore the city back to the pure version he remembers it was as a kid.
Watch the extended trailer for the series, below:
9 PM — CBS. Scorpion (new series). This high-octane drama is centered on an eccentric genius Walter O'Brien (Elyes Gabel) and his team of brilliant misfits who comprise the last line of defense against complex, high-tech threats of the modern age. As Homeland Security's new think tank, O'Brien's "Scorpion" team includes Toby Curtis, an expert behaviorist who can read anyone; Happy Quinn, a mechanical prodigy; and Sylvester Dodd, a statistics guru. Pooling their extensive technological knowledge to solve mind-boggling predicaments amazes federal agent Cabe Gallo (Robert Patrick), who shares a harrowing history with O'Brien.
However, while this socially awkward group is comfortable with each other's humor and quirks, life outside their circle confounds them, so they rely on Paige Dineen, who has a young, gifted son, to translate the world for them. At last, these nerdy masterminds have found the perfect job: a place where they can apply their exceptional brainpower to solve the nation's crises, while also helping each other learn how to fit in.
Watch a first look video for the series, below:
9 PM — Sleepy Hollow (second season).
10 PM — The Blacklist (second season).
The 7th season of Castle on ABC and the 6th season of NCIS: Los Angeles on CBS will premiere next Monday, September 29th, 2014, both at 10 PM ET/PT.
