Summer TV Wish List: Our Hopes For True Blood, Suits, Pretty Little Liars And 13 More Series

summer-tv-beauty-and-the-beast

Beauty and the Beast

Season 2 resumes June 2 at 9/8c (The CW)

OUR WISH | That Gabe — desperate to remove Vincent from Cat's life and thus restart their truncated romance — opts to "beast out" again, on the down low.

summer-tv-defiance

Defiance

Season 2 premieres June 19 at 8/7c (Syfy)

OUR WISH | That Kenya's death at Stahma's milky white hand was all an elaborate ruse.

summer-tv-falling-skies

Falling Skies

Season 4 premieres June 22 at 10/9c (TNT)

OUR WISH | That the show stops wheeling out new varieties of ETs and delineates an end game for Tom, Weaver at al, with an eye on a big, final Earth vs. Them showdown.

summer-tv-the-fosters

The Fosters

Season 2 premieres June 16 at 9/8c (ABC Family)

OUR WISH | That Wyatt cuts his hair. Just kidding, we love that mop! But can we please say goodbye to angsty Brandon and remember the sweet, sensitive kid we met in the first season?

summer-tv-the-killing

The Killing

Season 4 premieres Aug. 1 (Netflix)

OUR WISH | That series creator Veena Sud resists any urge she might have to play the romance card with Holder and Linden during the show's final six-episode run.

summer-tv-mistresses

Mistresses

Season 2 premieres June 2 at 10/9c (ABC)

OUR WISH | That Karen Kim never stops being the hottest of hot, buttered messes. Her terrible decision making is the foundation for so many of our summer gasps, laughs and DVR rewinds.

summer-tv-orange-is-the-new-black

Orange Is the New Black

Season 2 premieres June 6 (Netflix)

OUR WISH | That Healy's ass-hattery is discovered and punished, and that we see Miss Claudette at least once in the new season.

summer-tv-pretty-little-liars

Pretty Little Liars

Season 5 premieres June 10 at 8/7c (ABC Family)

OUR WISH | That Alison has a little fun now that she's returned to the land of the living. Whether that "fun" is joining a new club at school, or finally giving fans the same-sex love triangle they've been waiting for, we'll leave that up to Ali.

summer-tv-rookie-blue

Rookie Blue

Season 5 premieres June 19 at 9/8c (ABC)

OUR WISH | That writers abandon the love triangle and have Andy stick it out with one guy. (Who that guy is, we'll leave that up to the fans to argue about.)

summer-tv-sytycd

So You Think You Can Dance

Season 11 premieres May 28 at 8/7c (Fox)

OUR WISH | That SYTYCD experiences an unexpected ratings surge in its eleventh season — sparing us from the "will-it-or-won't-it-get-renewed" anxiety that's plagued us for the last several autumns.

summer-tv-the-strain

The Strain

Series premieres July 13 at 10/9c (FX)

OUR WISH | That the Guillermo del Toro-crafted vampire-y drama deals out at least half as much character development as it does ooky-spooky, watch-through-your-fingers chills.

summer-tv-suits

Suits

Season 4 premieres June 11 at 9/8c (USA Network)

OUR WISH | That Donna gets her very own special episode. Because you can never have enough Donna.

summer-tv-switched-at-birth

Season 3 resumes June 16 at 8/7c (ABC Family)

OUR WISH | That Bay and Emmett are really and truly reunited after their night of passion in the woods.

summer-tv-teen-wolf

Teen Wolf

Season 4 premieres June 23 at 10/9c (MTV)

OUR WISH | For Stiles to finally find love. And we don't even care who he ends up with. Lydia, Malia, Scott's mom, anybody. (Come on, who could say no to this face?)

summer-tv-true-blood

True Blood

Season 7 premieres June 22 at 9/8c (HBO)

OUR WISH | That Eric's fate is revealed via flashback... a glorious, naked flashback.

summer-tv-witches-of-east-end

Witches of East End

Season 2 premieres July 6 at 9/8c (Lifetime)

OUR WISH | For Aunt Wendy to magically regain her missing eight lives. Honestly, if we ever lost her, we're not sure how we'd go on. (Also, isn't it about time she let Freddie Prinze Jr.'s Leo out of captivity?)
