But, since both of these series start this week, I will take a deep breath and hope the suggestions look as interesting to you as they did to me.

Consumed: The Real Restaurant Business, a documentary-style series that follows three New York restaurateurs and all the drama that comes with the high-stakes business they are in. I'm personally rooting for Melba, who opened a restaurant in Harlem ten years ago and now wants to try opening a bar.

Then, Wayward Pines (starting Thurs on Fox) with a great cast (Terrence Howard, Matt Dillon, Juliette Lewis and co-produced by M.Night Shyamalan) promises start slow but take a shocking turn in episode three or four and "the real story just begins". Read The Wall Street Journal review that got me interested here. Other reviewers have hinted at a Twin Peaks comparison.
Who knows if either will deliver. Thought they might make good DVR material for a dog-day of summer, when nothing seems to be on.
