Five new fall shows you should PVR
A techie’s life shouldn’t be all code-writing and network minding. So set your PVR for these five
geeky shows premiering on TV this fall – and remember, if your employees can’t download
video at work, neither can you.

The 100 (CW)
A century after Earth was ravaged by nuclear war and the survivors abandoned the uninhabitable
planet for a space ark, 100 teenaged delinquents are sent back to the post-apocalyptic planet to
see if they can survive. It’s Hunger Games, with a dash of Battlestar Galactica.

Almost Human (Fox)
Think Bladerunner meets NYPD Blue. Set some 35 years in future Los Angeles, it’s a buddy cop
drama – but one of the cops is a highly-evolved android. Lost’s J.J. Abrams is executive producing,
so watch for plot twists with the future tech.

Intelligence (CBS)
The series centres around a U.S. military Cyber Command agent with a microchip implanted in
his brain that lets him access the “information grid.” So basically it’s Chuck but with the Intersect
where it was meant to go, and not a Geek Squad tech in Burbank.

Agents S.H.I.E.L.D. (ABC)
After years of comic-inspired movies, here’s a comic-inspired TV series. The U.S. government
puts together a team of crime-fighting super humans. Despite his apparent death in the last The
Avengers movie, Agent Phil Coulson is back to lead the team.

The Tomorrow People (CW)
Based on a British series of the same name, The Tomorrow People follows a group of ordinary
folks who suddenly realize they’re highly-evolved super humans with special powers (sound
familiar?). Let’s hope they use their powers for good.
