Here are some recommendations of great shows to watch this coming season:  

The Musketeers is by far my favorite show on TV right now. The show  follows the adventures of Athos, Porthos, Aramis, and D'Artagnan in Paris, fighting to protect King Louis and their country. The show is filled with action packed adventures. 

"Journey into a thrilling ancient world in this epic new series about history's bravest and most brutally fearsome warriors; Vikings. Ragnar, a would-be Viking chieftain, longs to fulfill his destiny as an explorer and conqueror, alongside his ambitious brother Rollo and loyal wife Lagertha. But as Ragnar leads daring raids in distant realms across the ocean, treacherous forces in his Norse homeland conspire against him."

Girls is a hilarious TV show that follows the experiences of  four girls named Jessa, Hannah, Marnie and Shoshanna who are in their early 20s and live in New York City. 

Nashville is about about the lives of two country stars, "Rayna James and Juliette Barnes. Rayna James is the reigning Queen of Country Music. Juliette Barnes and and the up and coming country starlet who wants to take Rayna's throne. Juliette competes with Rayna not only for the top of the chart but also for the attention of Rayna's former love and band leader, Deacon Claybourne. "

Empire is a musical drama about the hip hop world. Starring Terrence Howard and Taraji P. Henson. 

Orphan Black is a science fiction thrill ride that centers around clones. The show begins with a woman named Sarah Manning standing on a train platform. She sees a woman standing nearby who looks just like her commit suicide. Sarah steals the woman's identity and falls in to a world full of scientific drama she never knew existed. 

House of Lies's Marty Kaan is "a subversive, scathing look at a self-loathing management consultant from a top-tier firm. Marty, a highly successful, cutthroat consultant is never above using any means (or anyone) necessary to get his clients the information they want."

Suits is the story of Mike Ross, on the run from a drug deal gone bad. A brilliant college dropout finds himself a job working with Harvey Specter, one of New York City's best lawyers.
