UNDATED – TV Guide has announced its top 10 most anticipated dramas as according to TVGuide.com users' watchlist adds. The CW’s “The 100,” “The Tomorrow People,” and “The Originals” all make the list of shows viewers can’t wait to watch.
“The 100” comes in at number eight. The show, set in the future, follows 100 juvenile prisoners sent to the Earth's surface to test whether it's habitable after nuclear Armageddon decimated planet Earth 97 years prior. Among the 100 exiles are Clarke, the bright teenage daughter of the Ark's chief medical officer; Wells, son of the Ark’s Chancellor; the daredevil Finn; and the brother/sister duo Bellamy and Octavia, whose illegal sibling status has always led them to flaunt the rules. With the survival of the human race entirely in their hands, The 100 must find a way to transcend their differences, unite and forge a new path on a wildly changed Earth that’s primitive, intense and teeming with the unknown.
“The 100” will come to CW56 as a midseason premiere.
Right behind at number nine is “The Tomorrow People.” The remake of the 1970’s British series tells the story of Stephen Jameson. Up until a year ago, Stephen was a “normal” teenager — until he began hearing voices and teleporting in his sleep, never knowing where he might wake up. Stephen decides to listen to one of the voices in his head, and it leads him to his first encounter with the Tomorrow People — John, Cara and Russell — a genetically advanced race with the abilities of telekinesis, teleportation and telepathic communication. They are the next evolutionary leap of mankind, a generation of humans born with paranormal abilities. Unwilling to turn his back on humanity or the world of the Tomorrow People, Stephen sets out on his own path — a journey that could take him into the shadowy past to uncover the truth about his father’s mysterious disappearance, or into an unknown future with the Tomorrow People.
“The Tomorrow People” premieres Wednesday, October 9 on CW56.
Finally, rounding out the top 10 is “The Originals.” The spin-off of the CW hit “The Vampire Diaries” follows Klaus Mikaelson, the original vampire-werewolf hybrid, as he returns to the city his family helped build, the supernatural melting pot that is the French Quarter of New Orleans. Klaus’ questions lead him to a reunion with his diabolical former protégé, Marcel, a charismatic vampire who has total control over the human and supernatural inhabitants of New Orleans. Determined to help his brother find redemption, Elijah follows Klaus and soon learns that the werewolf Hayley has also come to the French Quarter searching for clues to her family history, and has fallen into the hands of a powerful witch named Sophie. Tensions between the town’s supernatural factions are nearing a breaking point as Marcel commands his devoted followers and rules with absolute power. For Klaus, the thought of answering to his powerful protégé is unthinkable, and he vows to reclaim what was once his – the power, the city and his family. While they wait to see if their sister Rebekah will leave Mystic Falls and join them, Klaus and Elijah form an uneasy alliance with the witches to ensure that New Orleans will be ruled by The Originals once again.
The series premieres on CW56 on Tuesday, October 15.
