Recently we learned that there are a record number of TV shows being filmed here right now. Combine that with the NYC shows that film elsewhere, and the Big Apple is getting a lot of small screen time. Since this is, after all, how out-of-towners learn about our fair city, we figured we should be keeping tabs on how it's being portrayed. And look at that, the Fall television season is upon us—can you smell it? It smells like comfort food and stale plotlines. But maybe there's hope this year?We've narrowed down the Fall schedule below, with networks, air dates, summaries, and casts of all the shows—new and old—you'll be seeing as you hover over your Ron Swanson Turf n' Turf TV dinners (we'll add on Mad Men when if finally airs early next year). Please note: these are only shows filming in or based in New York City. Which ones should we be watching throughout the season?
