**************************************************

New Comers:

Constantine

John Constantine is a man whose life is haunted by his past sins. Not only that, he is now the world’s defender against an upcoming attack from the dark forces.

Why Watch It: The series version of Constantine looks much more faithful to its comic book counterpart. This is what Constantine is supposed to look like. If he looks badass right now, then you should see him battling the forces of evil

Catch it on: October 24, 2014

Gotham

Before the Batman and his enemies waged war on each other, see where it all began. The story focuses on a young Commissioner Gordon back in the early days of his career.

Why Watch It: Who doesn’t want to see Gotham before the Batman? You’ll get to find out why the villains became evil and also we’ll be seing  Commissioner Gordon in action!

iZombie
iZombie

Liv, a normal med student, turned brain muncher who becomes part of a coroner’s office to satisfy her hunger. Unlike you’re usual zombie, Liv must devour brains in order to retain her humanity. Not only that, she also gains their memories which she uses to solve their deaths.

Why Watch It: Solving deaths by accessing the memories of the dead through eating their brains? Talk about fresh. Just like CSI with a dash of supernatural elements.

The Flash

After seeing the accident that gives Barry Allen his powers in Arrow, The Flash finally makes it to his own series. The Flash will have to protect Central city from super powered villains that also got their abilities from the same freak accident that created the Flash.

Why watch it: Because it’s the Flash! On his own series! Kidding aside, we’ll see another Justice League original member on the small screen. Also will the Flash transition to the silver screen to join his fellow superheroes on the Justice League movie? Let’s wait and see.

Doctor Who

Doctor Who Season 8
