Familiar faces return to prime time this fall as millions of TV fans pre- pare to sit back, relax and enjoy everything the new television season has to offer. But while there's no shortage of famous faces hitting the air- waves, the season's slate is also chock-full of fresh faces on every major network. actress Tracy Spiridakos stars as said heroine in the new J.J. Abrams drama. She's appeared in such shows as "Supernatural," "Hellcats" and "Psych," as well as the tween Canadian series "Majority Rules!" Scheduled to premiere Monday, Sept. 17, "Revolution" takes a look at an apocalyptic world in which every piece of technology has mysteriously blacked out. Although many of these per- formers have appeared on tele- vision before, they have yet to break through the fame barrier. Now that they've paid their dues in supporting roles and on the guest-starring circuit, they are poised to make their mark and become stars in their own right. Sitting at the top of the rat- ings heap, Fox and CBS seem content to debut just a few new series this fall, but NBC has lined up an aggressive new slate with several new come- dies and dramas featuring lots of up-and-comers. They lead the charge with a thinly veiled attempt to capital- ize on the popularity of "The Hunger Games" (2012), as a strong-willed young heroine treks across the countryside with a crossbow in "Revolution."

"Guys with Kids," premiering Wednesday, Sept. 26, follows three thir- tysomething new dads grasping at their youth while taking on the new responsibilities of par- enthood. Jimmy Fallon serves as executive producer, but the suc- cess or failure of the series rests on the shoulders of its stars. All three "dads" have been seen on NBC before. Anthony Anderson is perhaps the best known of the three, having joined the cast of "Law & Order" in 2008. Jesse Bradford appeared as a White House intern in "The West Wing," while Zach Cregger was more recently seen in NBC's "Friends With Benefits." Over on ABC, the lineup is filled with programs featuring a mix of rising American stars and international talent. While lots of viewers might recognize '80s star Jami Gertz as Debbie Weaver in ABC's new comedy "The Neighbors," few likely know leading man Lenny Venito. Although he's made Patron Silver $44.99 Hamm's 30 pack (warm) $10.99 3 Convenient locations for all your party needs! appearances in such hits as HBO's "The Sopranos" and "Curb Your Enthusiasm," the native New Yorker hasn't found prime-time fame. That may change as he takes the helm of "The Neighbors" (premiering Wednesday, Sept. 26) as Marty Weaver, a man who packs up his wife and kids and moves them to the gated community of Hidden Hills, only to discover their new neighborhood is pop- ulated by aliens from the planet Zabvron. Shakespearean actor Simon Lenny Venito steps into a leading role in ABC's "The Neighbors" Templeman has made his mark in the theater world across the pond, and he's now poised to make an impression on TV audi- ences as the alien leader in "The Neighbors." Nigerian Toks Olagundoye may be relatively new to Los Angeles, but she's already guest starred in CBS's "CSI: NY" and NBC's "Law & Order." Teen actress Clara Mamet, who plays daughter Amber Weaver, is the daughter of famed playwright David Mamet.Young actors Tim Jo, Ian Patrick, Max Charles and Isabella Cramp round out the cast. Meanwhile, CBS gets serious with the new Friday night law drama "Made in Jersey," pre- miering Sept. 28. The show cen- ters on a lawyer with working- class roots whose street smarts come in handy at a prestigious Manhattan law firm. American TV icon Kyle MacLachlan has a prominent role as firm founder Donovan Stark, but Janet Montgomery is the show's breakout star. The English actress started out as a child performer in the British children's show "Short Change" and later appeared in the teen drama "Skins" before landing a role in the horror flick "The Hills Run Red" (2009). North Americans may remember her as Madeline in "Black Swan" (2010) or as Ames on Fox's short lived "Human Target." Speaking of Fox, the network is playing it safe with only a couple of new offering this sea- son, one of which is the Monday night drama "The Mob Doctor," premiering Sept. 17. It stars New Yorker Jordana Spiro as a Chicago doctor torn between two worlds as she strives to save the lives of her patients while also secretly working to pay off her brother's gambling debt to the mob. Portraying the conflict between the two worlds is a tall order, and Fox has placed its faith in Spiro, who previously starred in the TBS comedy series "My Boys." All in all, there are plenty of rising stars hitting the airwaves this fall. Only time will tell which ones will shine bright, and which ones will fade away.
