Assessing whether HBO's 'Girls' and 'The Newsroom,' ABC's 'Nashville,' CBS' 'Elementary' and others can catch the voter's eye.
When it comes to recognizing top-form television, the Golden Globes are often a bellwether. Last year, for example, a riveting new drama called "Homeland" figured prominently in the Globe nominations in January -- and then went on to sweep the Emmy Awards in September.

Looking for the next "Homeland," we offer up some newcomers that stand a chance of breaking through to award recognition, with an assessment of their pros and cons by Los Angeles Times television critic Mary McNamara. |
