Any tips on color correcting/grading

[FlipRJ]

SO I'm looking at my footage, and I'm thinking that it might need some color correcting. But I have no clue how to really do it. I mean, I'm playing around with stuff, but sometimes I go overboard. Any hints or tips on how to do this? what's the general work flow for this sort of thing?

also, keep in mind, I'using adobe premiere pro

Make sure to use the spectograph and make sure all of your colours are "broadcast legal". With the spectrograph, it's easier not to go overboard.
