The fall television season is wrapping up, which makes for a good time to look back on the shows people were talking about around the water cooler.
Ratings don't always reflect the entire picture of how fans engage with a show, but it becomes a pretty important factor when networks are making renewal decisions.
For example, a few of the highest-rated new shows on TV right now are HBO's "Westworld," NBC's "This Is Us," CBS's "Kevin Can Wait," and Fox's "Lethal Weapon," yet only two of those programs are on this list of 10 shows people are most buzzing about. Conversely, several shows that aren't ruling in the ratings are getting people talking.
To find out which new TV shows are creating the most buzz, technology and marketing platform Amobee analyzed real-time content consumption across the internet, video, social, and mobile between September 1 and December 4 to determine which shows were generating the most engagement.
Here are the 10 most-talked about new TV shows of the season:

10. "Notorious" (ABC)
"Notorious" follows Jake (Daniel Sunjata), a charismatic defense attorney, and Julia (Piper Perabo), a powerhouse television producer, who work together when high-profile incidents are breaking.
Despite the buzz, its ratings weren't high. ABC decided not to order a full season of the drama.
9. "Exorcist" (Fox)
In this TV adaptation of the film franchise, Geena Davis plays a mom whose daughter has returned from college exhibiting very dark behavior, so she searches out her local priest to help.
While "The Exorcist" is Fox's lowest-rated new series, there's still hope for a second season.
8. "Conviction" (ABC)
Haley Atwell isn't having much luck with TV dramas. She jumped from canceled "Agent Carter" to playing an attorney for the falsely accused on ABC's "Conviction."
But the judgment came down in March and it wasn't in Atwell's favor: ABC canceled the show.
