The list of shows I want to watch is getting quite long, I may have to trim a few shows. Two new shows this week and a PBS special. Parts Unknown is Anthony Bourdain new travel show Sunday nights on CNN. Defiance is a science fiction show on Syfy that I know absolutely nothing about, I just saw it recently in the TV listings. The Central Park Five is not some new music group, they were falsely convicted of a sensational crime in 1980s.
So what shows would I stop watching? The most likely to be dropped by me would be Revolution and Body of Proof.
These are the TV shows I plan on watching this week. Most of them I will watch by DVR or OnDemand. All times ET.
