Best New TV Shows 2011

Over the years, we've all watched and loved certain TV shows. We watched the fresh telecast, and we watched re-runs. Memories of Janice's laugh from the oh-so-famous television series F.R.I.E.N.D.S. or even Stephanie's "How rude!" from Full House, are still so vivid. Oh well, this was way back though! So how about looking at something more recent, like maybe the best new TV shows 2011, as well as some upcoming TV shows.

New TV Series 2011

We're already a few months into 2011. While there already have been a number of television series that have been released and are doing rather well, there are others which aren't yet on air, and whose arrival we await. How about taking a look at what's already available for your viewing pleasure, and what the best TV shows of 2011 could be.

Body of Proof (ABC)
Expected to premiere on March 29, 2011, this show is about Dr. Megan Hunt (Dana Delany), a neurosurgeon who was in a league of her own, until her career at this position meets its end due to a terrible accident which no longer allows her to continue her job with the current profile. She decides to start over as medical examiner. Unfortunate for her, she doesn't know where to draw the line, and has built up a reputation for overstepping boundaries, and walking into jobs that should be handled by the cops. As if that wasn't sufficient, she reaches a point of turmoil in her personal life too. Question is, will she be able to fix it before it completely falls apart?

Chaos (CBS)
Chaos, which will be an hour long comic drama, is about rogue CIA spies who investigate threats to national security, while trying to ensure that they don't lose their own jobs. The 'Pilot' episode will see these agents team up and work with a freshman named Rick Martinez, only to realize, he is the potential threat to them and their job. The show will premiere on April 1, 2011, on CBS, so make sure you find the time to watch it.

Happy Endings (ABC)
This half hour long comic series will premiere on the ABC Network on April 13, 2011. This series is about the lives of a bunch of friends who are in a dilemma because of the reason they are all together today. What do you do when you are friends with a couple who have just broken up? Who do you pick? Moreover, how do you pick? Watch Happy Endings to find out... The series premiere will be an hour long deal, airing two episodes back-to-back.

A few other new series coming in 2011 are also Breaking In, Love Bites, and Friends with Benefits. So these were a few amongst the best new TV shows 2011 to look forward to. What about the ones that are already on air? Here they are...
