2013 Summer TV Premiere Schedule: Breaking Bad, The Hero, Under The Dome & More

The summer TV season has begun, as most of the Midseason series have wrapped up and we're starting to see the networks roll out their summer offerings. Once upon a time, summer was the down season for TV, but in this day and age, cable and network television offer a nice variety of scripted and unscripted programming to fill the gap between spring and fall. This year, that includes the return of Falling Skies, Burn Notice and Drop Dead Diva, as well as the premieres of new series like Under the Dome, Devious Maids and The Hero.

Here's the summer schedule, thanks in part to TVline. Dates are subject to change, and we'll continue to update additional premiere dates as they come in. In the meantime, if there's a summer show that you don't see on here, let us know in the comments and we'll see if we can dig up the date!
