When you and your family just move into a luxurious gated community, all you have to expect are tranquility, peace and mutual respect of all the neighbors. But, what if "all of the neighbors" are the alien forms of extraterrestrial life, and you and your beloved ones are the only humans in this "society"? What will you do? Claim your real estate agent to cancel the contract? Pass all the extraterrestrials to FBI to conduct the inhumane experiments? No, you will teach them humanity and learn from them how to be a "good family" instead. Exactly as Weaver family does in this weird and sometimes "goofy" television series, The Neighbors centered on their unusual life among the aliens. But don't consider their neighbors some sort of ugly monsters"¦ Oh, yeah, of course they have some green goo ejaculated from ears when they cry, and, of course, they prefer to eat using eyes, not mouth, but they so adorable! So, you have ever intent to pass them to official for some cruel test, please, don't do it! Although, the TV show has gained mostly negative receptions from critics, it worth watching for many reasons. First of all it was created by legendary Dan Fogelman, and all the critics negative reviews are just a result of high expectations for these series. The second reason is the ensemble cast: the star of Entourage, Modern Family, Still Standing and ER - Jami Gertz looks natural in the extraterrestrial surrounding of Ningning Deng, Tracy Weisert and Mobin Khan.

Dubbed a combination of mystery, crime drama, and American fantasy show, Grimm comes to home (not so small) screens on Friday evenings filled with dark twists and turns including some familiar fairy tale characters from the legendary Grimm's Fairy Tales we all grew up listening to or reading. There are familiar "bad guys" such as the Big Bad Wolf and many new ones that can be equally frightening if only to the younger set. Nick Burkhardt (played by David Giuntoli from Nip/Tuck, Veronica Mars) is a descendant from the Grimm line of hunters who is a homicide detective by day and fights supernatural forces on the side. Russell Hornsby (Lincoln Heights, Meet the Parents) is Hank Griffin, Burkhardt's homicide partner, and Juliette Silverton, who is Burkhardt's girlfriend is played by Bitsie Tulloch (Lakeview Terrace, Ring Tone). Eddie Monroe previously was considered to be a Big Bad Wolf but now works with Nick Burkhardt. He is played by Silas Weir Mitchell from Dexter and Monk. Don't confuse Grimm with another show that recently premiered, Once Upon A Time. Grimm will be much darker and have more of an adult theme. Through Burkhardt's eyes we see normal people turn into monsters and no one is safe anymore!

Another successful crossover from British television to North American is found in Being Human. The premise of the show involves showing how different yet similar we all are and how a vampire and a werewolf can live with a ghost and all get along. Any time a combination like this one comes to the TV you can imagine how scary dark and brooding it may be but there is a lot of humor in this show as well, making it well worth watching. Aidan (Sam Witwer) is a vampire who works as a nurse in a hospital in Boston. He began his career as a prince of darkness during the Revolutionary War back in the 1860's and with a job in a hospital they might want to watch out for the blood supplies. Josh (played by Sam Huntington) happens to be a werewolf working in the same hospital as an orderly as his day job. Sally (Meaghan Rath) became a ghost after her unfortunate death and now haunts the house she had planned to live in when she got married. Now Aidan and Josh rent the house and find it to be haunted by Sally.

An ultimately glorious opening in 2012, Revolution, tells us a story about post-apocalyptic future where the blood and soul of our technically advanced world has totally dissappeared "“ the Electricity. Imagine, that in one disastrous moment some unknown phenomena will switch off all the electricity on the planet. Forever. Imagine the world without computers, batteries, machinery, lamps, automobiles, airplanes, ships and train. It's needless to say that would be the world without a bank system, a medical system, a policy and, as the result without the power at all. In Revolution, these tiny forces allowing the electrons to run inside the devices wires are all run out in one moment all over the Earth and nobody knows why and what to do in order to restore it. The Revolution action takes place after fifteen years since the "blackout" "“ the humanity is not even looks similar to what we now mean by this word. There are no United States of America, but there are lots of small republics, counties and anarchies "“ all ruled by cruel leaders. One of those leaders Sebastian "Bass" Monroe (played by David Lyons: Eat Pray Love, The Cape and Mobius) is on the hunt for a man who wears a strange amulet (it looks exactly as USB flash drive), Aaron Pittman, a former Google executive, who received this "amulet" from his friend, Ben Matheson. The "amulet" appears to be a real USB data storage, and when we learn that Ben passed it secretly to Aaron just in seconds before the "blackout" it becomes absolutely clear that the USB-drive is somehow connected with the reason of "blackout" and may be a key to restore the electricity in the world.
