In fact, a bunch of broadcast series — mainly on Fox and The CW — and cable shows will be appearing as soon as Monday. To help you plan your viewing, here's a chronology for now through Sept. 22, when the heavy load of shows falls on us.
Monday — Gossip Girl and One Tree Hill return on The CW. Prison Break starts its fourth season on Fox.
Raising the Bar, a new legal series from Steven Bochco, begins on TNT. The ensemble cast includes Mark-Paul Gosselaar as a harried public defender. For more, see today's Channels.
Tuesday — One of the most buzzed-about shows of the new season, 90210, begins on The CW. An updating of the old Beverly Hills, 90210, it includes new characters as well as visits from some old ones. But The CW has not made it available for preview.
Also, The Shield begins its seventh and final season on FX.
Wednesday — Bones on Fox, America's Next Top Model on The CW. Bones is kicking off with a two-hour telecast that finds Bones (Emily Deschanel) and Booth (David Boreanaz) getting tangled in a murder in England. Top Model will have its first transgender contestant.
A new series, Sons of Anarchy, with Katey Sagal and Hellboy's Ron Perlman, premieres on FX. A self-described ''adrenalized drama with darkly comedic undertones,'' it involves a motorcycle club that runs an illegal arms business in a small town.
Thursday — New season of The Moment of Truth on Fox.
Friday — Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader? begins a new run. Also, the celebrity fundraising special Stand Up to Cancer will be on ABC, CBS and NBC.
Saturday — New seasons of Cops and America's Most Wanted on Fox.
Sept. 7 — Hole in the Wall has contestants bending their bodies to get through various weird shapes on barriers coming toward them. It previews on Fox on this date and Sept. 9 before starting in its regular time slot on Sept. 11.
Also, HBO begins True Blood, a vampire series from Six Feet Under creator Alan Ball (via the writings of Charlaine Harris). It concerns a world where synthetic blood means vampires no longer have to feed on humans — and want to be part of the mainstream. Anna Paquin stars. And Entourage begins a new season on HBO.
Sept. 8 — Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles (Fox).
Sept. 10 — 'Til Death and new series Do Not Disturb, both on Fox. The latter is a new comedy set in a plush New York hotel, with Jerry O'Connell and Niecy Nash.
Sept. 11 — Kitchen Nightmares (Fox).
Sept. 12 — Don't Forget the Lyrics (Fox).
Sept. 16 — House (Fox), where the relationship between House (Hugh Laurie) and Wilson (Robert Sean Leonard) is still very strained. Also, The Biggest Loser: Families (NBC). And Lincoln Heights starts a new season on ABC Family.
Sept. 18 — Smallville and Supernatural (CW). Survivor, which CBS had scheduled for this date, has been moved to Sept. 25, when it will have a two-hour premiere. It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia begins a new season on FX.
Sept. 19 — 20/20.
Sept 21 — In Harm's Way, Valentine, Easy Money. All will air on The CW through an arrangement it made with another company to program the night.
In Harm's Way is a reality show about ''the brave individuals who risk their lives in a multitude of life-threatening jobs, all for the benefit of society.'' The Valentines are ancient Greek gods who live in the Hollywood Hills and take on
