Back in September we previewed some of the new fall TV shows premiering. So we wanted to follow-up to see what shows we’ve stuck with and what ones we’ve already dropped from our viewing schedule. But this time we’ve done a bit of a lightening round to hit a whole bunch of different shows including Chase, Hawaii Five-O, Blue Bloods, Mike and Molly, No Ordinary Family, The Defenders, The Whole Truth, The Event, Nikita,  Sons of Anarchy, Shit My Dad Says and The Walking Dead.
