Tonight sees the return of ABC's comedies, CBS' dramas, and NBC tries out a different schedule.
New & Returning Premieres
The Middle kicks off its fifth season tonight and sees young Axl Heck heading to college. The entire Heck family tags along to help the oldest son move into his college dorm. Only antics and craziness could occur when the Hecks go out in public, right? 8 pm on ABC.
Revolution picks up where it left viewers this past spring. The repercussions of turning the lights back on will be explored and the world that we knew in season one will drastically change. Allegiances and attitudes change within the core cast. NBC is apparently taking a risk and putting sophmore drama Revolution to the test with this new time slot. It will certainly face an uphill battle against ABC's comedy hour and the reality shows on FOX and CBS. Will you be tuning in? 8pm on NBC.
Back in the Game has gained the coveted time slot between The Middle and Modern Family but that isn't necessarily a good thing. The comedy will have a lot to prove to maintain the ratings between the two veteran comedies, and unfortunately first previews have been mixed. Single mom Terry and son move in with her former pro-baseball player father. After her son and a group of unworthy kids aren't considered for a little league baseball team, Terry decides to form her own team a la Bad News Bears. The jury is still out if this old formula will work this time. Surefire it's not. 8:30 pm on ABC.
Modern Family starts off its fifth season with an hour-long episode. The Pritchetts and Dunphys enjoy the final days of summer, and the families deal with Manny and Luke entering their first year of high school. Oh and Cam is teaching again. That should be a riot. 9 pm on ABC.
The 15th season of Law & Order: SVU kicks off with an amazing two-hour premiere. (15 years already, really now?). NBC has spent the latter half of the summer promoting the #SaveBenson campaign. Benson remains missing and held captive. Will the other detectives find her in time? Also, a basement full of kidnapping victims is found thus activating a bunch of cold cases. Hmmm, this sounds recently straight from the headlines. 9 pm on NBC.
Criminal Minds begins its ninth season on the hunt for a killer in Arizona. The season premiere is a two-parter so be prepared for the cliffhanger and tune in next week for the resolution. 9 pm on CBS.
The second season of Nashville focuses on the repercussions after the season ending car crash last May, which was fueled by the revelation that Deacon is Maddie's biological father. Flashforward post-accident: Rayna is in a coma while Deacon is in jail waiting for his sentence. Maddie, however, makes the ultimate mistake and confides the whole drama to the wrong person. Any guesses? 10 pm on ABC.
Season 14 of CSI finds Morgan and Ellie kidnapped by a ritualistic killer. Can D.B. Russell and team find and save them in time? 10 pm on CBS.
Also on Tonight
Survivor: Blood vs. Water and The X-Factor go head-to-head with new episodes, meanwhile South Park returns to Comedy Central for a 17th season.
