New Fall TV
Yeah, so, I haven't blogged in ages. I've been busy, creating life. It's harder than you think.
If you're going to be an extremely pregnant woman who doesn't have the energy to do much and doesn't move around easily, tv is very important. Things got a lot more interesting in my little world when the fall programming schedule started. Here's my score so far:
Returning from last year:
How I Met Your Mother
Heroes
House
Law & Order: SVU
30 Rock
The Office
Scrubs
Law & Order: Criminal Intent
Stargate Atlantis
Law & Order
Picked up during summer reruns:
Cold Case - it's set it Philly! Cool! And I like the mystery of each episode.
New series that made the first list:
Chuck - this was a surprise, but we caught an early preview on TiVo and really liked it.
Journeyman - engaging from the first episode.
Back to You - I'm not sure what I like, or why I like it, but it's not a bad way to spend a half hour.
Dirty Sexy Money - another surprise. It grabbed me right away, enough that I told Terry to watch it.
New series that have passed probation (decided they were ok by episode 3):
Bionic Woman - it was rough going for the first episode or two, but it seems to have evened out
Life - I'm not as sure of this as Terry is. The main character annoys me sometimes, but is great other times.
New series still on probation:
Big Bang Theory - Yeah, it's really stupid. I should cut it, but I really want to like it. It's relying too hard on stereotypes though. Extending probation for 2-3 more weeks.
Pushing Daisies - I wasn't wowed by the premiere, but I haven't watched episode 2 yet.
Private Practice - I don't watch Grey's, so this was a weird choice. But I'm happy to see Amy Brenneman on TV again. I may keep this as a guilty pleasure that I watch alone.
Big Shots - I put it on the possibles list because I like Josh Malina. But his character is a horrible person. Of the four main characters, I hate two and like two. Probation extended.
Women's Murder Club - it hasn't started yet, so this means nothing really.
Already cut:
Reaper - I could barely make it through one episode. I don't get why this is supposed to be so great.
Still waiting for:
The Return of Jezebel James - Amy Sherman-Palladino's new show that Fox has yet to premiere.
It's a lot of TV when you list it all out like that...but let's recall that I'm a pregnant woman without a job (more on that later), so I have a lot of time...and more importantly, two TiVos!
