Top 14 New Shows of 2014: #14

My annual TV Awards, the AFT Television Awards, are given out during the summer. But this year, during both the spring and the fall, produced many impressive new television series. As 2014 closes out and 2015 begins, here’s a look back at the best new shows of the year.

#14: NCIS: New Orleans

This show ranks last on this list because I only have on frame of reference: the pilot. I used to watch and enjoy the first two series in this franchise, and I wasn’t surprised to like this New Orleans-set version, with Scott Bakula, Lucas Black, Zoe McLellan, and CCH Pounder adding some local flavor. It’s not a series I felt like I needed to watch, but the pilot was definitely enjoyable.
