Fall Television – YAY
The economy is in the tank. My gas tank is almost empty. Most of the gas stations are out of gas. But the president sure seems to be full of it.
So, to escape from all this terror and frustration and sheer exhaustiveness of it all, I am throwing myself into my TV shows.
And I have many.
Every Fall I make a grid, usually in Excel, of all the shows I want to watch, what night, time and channel they come on, and proceed to program them into my TiVo. (I secretly think this is one of the main reasons my hubby stays with me.) Many of this year’s premieres have been staggered. Prison Break came on 3 weeks ago. As did Bones. And Fringe. House was last week. Most of the shows start this week. Friday Night Lights (hubby) and My Own Worst Enemy (YAY Christian Slater!!!) come in a week or two. It kind of throws everything off. Sometimes the premieres are on at completely different times or days as the shows will be aired. At least TiVo is fairly smart. It usually keeps up with all that.
I just wish it would know when the blowhard “First Idiot” was on instead of one of my shows and adjust accordingly. Hmmf.
Thoughts on the beginning of the season:
- House – Love it. Angst filled and narcissistic as usual
- Bones – Love it. Not liking the breakup
- Fringe – Interesting. Big sci-fi fan and Beantown lover so good marks
- Heroes – Fan-effing-tastic!!!! Need I say more?
- Prison Break – I really like this show, but sometimes go weeks without watching
- CSI: Miami – One of the few people who likes Caruso. Pretty active first show
I’ll talk about the other shows as I watch them. Feel free to let me know about your shows. Likes and dislikes. I like to hear other people’s takes.
