Check out a selection of these new shows that have just debuted or are scheduled to land soon. Be among the first to make an opinion on these by following the links below.

Million Dollar Password: TV’s Million Dollar Game Show emcee of choice, Regis Philbin, hosts this update of the classic game show ‘Password,’ where celebrities help contestants win as much as, you guessed it, one million dollars.

Legally Blonde The Musical - The Search For Elle Woods: The movie that was based on a book and then became a musical is now a TV show that sets out to find the lead for the musical… which we’re guessing is probably going to be made into another movie, which will be turned into…

Greatest American Dog: Who doesn’t love a stupid pet trick? If this show catches on, perhaps they’ll expand it internationally to include more than American Dogs… but maybe German Shepherds, French Poodles, and Irish Wolfhounds are already eligible for this show through some sort of international work visa program — we’re not sure.

Celebrity Circus: So You Think You Can Trapeze? This series follows the famous and semi-famous in their quest to be circus stars. We’re afraid of clowns, so you’ll have to watch and tell us how it is.

Wipeout: Braving mud and more across extreme obstacle courses, two dozen contestants each week compete for $50,000.

I Survived A Japanese Game Show: Americans travel abroad to compete in / be humiliated by a zany Japanese Game Show for cash prizes… probably a good deal considering the exchange rate.

Hopkins: No fun and games here… a documentary crew was allowed to follow a team at the famous Johns Hopkins Hospital for this gritty six-part series.

High School Musical: Get In The Picture: Singer, celebrity dancer, and now reality show host Nick Lachey oversees a talent search for the next round of High School Musical stars. Can a show about their eager stage moms fawning over Nick be far behind?

    What about the new season of America’s Got Talent?! This one should be really good, these contestants have to live up to Terry Fator’s ten million dollar shoes

    America’s Greatest Dog was pretty good. The show seemed a little slow but I am sure it will get better as it progresses. The pet market is huge in the US so I am guessing that it is going to have loyal following from pet lovers.
