Already got the following:

I wanted to like Revolution, but it's no where near as good as it should be.  I still watch it and like it somewhat, but there are moments that just make me smack my head in awe.  I came across this cracked article recently which shared my viewpoint:

I'm trying to get caught back up on Treme and Boardwalk Empire myself.  I think they are around ep 9 out of 12 at this point.

If you're into scifi, give Fringe a shot. It's on FOX. It's a really deep show. It's got time travel, time shifts/altered timelines, parallel worlds, mad scientists on LSD, action, shapeshifters, the destruction of worlds, a pet cow named Gene, cameos from Leonard Nimoy, constant mindf*cks, etc... It's in the final season right now.

Well, any series with all of those things must be good!  ;)

Fringe has had it's ups and downs, but I'm really enjoying the final season so far.

One show I'm surprised by how much I like is Once Upon a Time.

While it's not over-the-air, American Horror Story: Asylum is absolutely fantastic so far this season.

Another +1 for fringe.   8)

I am also watching Last Resort on ABC, its based around military conspiracy and naval warfare. Broadly, it is about a US submarine that is ordered to launch nukes at a foreign county under orders that come from a very questionable source. When the admiral questions the orders, the sub is attacked by a fellow US submarine for treason. They flee to a NATO controlled island and take refuge against attack from their own country. When the show is good, it reminds me of a Tom Clancy book. The problem is I don't quite consider it constantly good. It gets into these different sub plots (no pun intended) that can get mind numbing.
