Yahoo!'s Top 10 "Can't-Miss" Shows

At Yahoo! we use search patterns to help predict what we think will be the breakout new shows. Last year we saw a lot of people searching for Heroes before the season even started. This year with the help of the Yahoo! Buzz team we have identified the Top 10 most popular new shows – before they’ve even aired. Click through this slideshow to find out which shows made the list.


10. Cavemen
The new ABC comedy Cavemen rolls in at No. 10 on the Yahoo! TV Buzz list. We hope this puts an end to the nasty rumor that cavemen don't get any respect. (Premieres Tuesday, Oct. 2)


9. Private Practice
The Grey's Anatomy spinoff Private Practice on ABC comes in at No. 9 on the Yahoo! TV Buzz list. The cast is solid (Tim Daly, Taye Diggs, Amy Brenneman) and the massive Grey's fan base hungry for some California sun are sure to make this show a keeper. (Premieres Wednesday, Sept. 26)


8. Chuck
The new NBC show Chuck is No. 8 on the Yahoo! TV Buzz list. Zach Levi rocks as the self-proclaimed nerd who accidentally implants the government's most well-kept secrets into his subconscious by viewing an email from a friend. Now that's some kind of email virus. (Premieres Monday, Sept. 24)


7. Cane
The Cuban-American family drama Cane on CBS is the No. 7 most searched for new show on Yahoo! No surprise. Just look at the outstanding cast led by Jimmy Smits. (Premieres Tuesday, Sept. 25)


6. AngelMoonlight
The CBS vampire drama Moonlight makes an appearance at No. 6 on the Yahoo! TV Buzz list. The interview with this vampire (available on Y! TV) is likely what people are searching for. (Premieres Friday, Sept. 28)


5. Reaper
The new CW show Reaper about a boy whose parents sold his soul to the devil has burned its way up the search charts landing at No. 5 on the Yahoo! TV Buzz list. (Premieres Tuesday, Sept. 25)


4. The Big Bang Theory
The CBS comedy The Big Bang Theory comes in at No. 4 on the Yahoo! TV Buzz list proving that nerdy is the new sexy. How else would you explain it? (Premieres Monday, Sept. 24)


3. Gossip Girl
The CW's Gossip Girl is the No. 3 most searched for new show of the fall season. Photos of the hot young cast may have something to do with that. Wild guess. (Premieres Wednesday, Sept. 19)


2. Bionic Woman
NBC's Bionic Woman is No. 2 on the Yahoo! TV Buzz list, giving this fresh take on a classic TV series more than a fighting chance at being a success. Who can resist hot chicks who kick butt? (Premieres Wednesday, Sept. 26)


1. Kid Nation
The new CBS reality show Kid Nation is generating the most buzz out of any of the new fall shows. Lots of people are trying to find out more about the controversy surrounding the conditions on set for the kids. We think the show put forth a genuine challenge and the kids rose to meet it. You be the judge. (Premieres Wednesday, Sept. 19)

lol at most of these. From this list, I'm only watching "Gossip Girl," "Reaper," and "Private Practice." And in what place, shape, or form is "Cavemen" anticipated? But the bigger question is this: WHERE THE FUCK IS "PUSHING DAISIES?"

Lose.

	Big Bang Theory looks like such cliche shit. oh and I'm excited for KidNation, GossipGirl, and Reaper! (Reply to this) (Thread)(Expand)

	CBS got to you. Before you saw KidNation advertised over and over again on Big Brother, did you have any inkling to see it? At least, you haven't been brainwashed into wanting to see Big Bang Theory. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Pushing Daisies is actually the only one I'd be interested in watching. As for whomever greenlighted Cavemen, I hope they get fired. (Reply to this) (Thread)

trust me, 6 weeks after it airs that hope will become reality. Yahoo is the only site I've seen that actually has anything GOOD to say about that show... I bet they were paid off. It's definitely gonna be axed within its first few showings. btw, does anyone else here do a show rankings sort of thing with their friends where you rank the shows that'll tank cause theyre bad, tank though theyre good, survive though theyre bad, survive cause theyre good, etc.... me and my friends have been doing one every year since like 1998.

	IDK but Pushing Dasies is going to be amazing. It better not turn into another Arrested Development type thing. I don't think I can take it. (Reply to this)

	LOL The Big Bang Theory looks kinda funny. I might consider watching (Reply to this)

	krysteener 2007-09-06 08:49 pm UTC (link)
	The Chuck pilot was so good. As was Pushing Daisies, which could easily be on top of this list. The Big Bang Theory looks dumb :( Apparently good comedies are really hard to make. (Reply to this)

	i would be excited for private practice two years ago when grey's anatomy was still good but it has gone downhill so fast i can't even imagine how bad the spin off is going to be. i've never heard of pushing daisies but since everyone in here is talking about it i'll have to check it out!
