My Night Of Television
So, tonight's premieres...
Joan of Arcadia
Loved it. As in, I have a new current favorite show.
Amber Tamblyn is fabulous and very natural, and Jason Ritter is both likable and extremely easy on the eyes. ;) The two have a sweet sibling chemistry (I said sibling -- I'm not always perverted ;)). I especially liked their little fight, like when she splashed a glass of water in his face. I'm psyched that the next episode looks to be heavy on those two characters.
Really, though, I loved the show in general. I just hoped it did okay in the ratings. I taped Miss Match but have yet to watch it.
Hope And Faith
It was actually better than I had expected. Kelly Ripa can sometimes grate on my nerves when she's on Regis And Kelly, but I thought she was quite funny. The show seemed to drag when she wasn't on screen. The soap references were cute, and of course I enjoyed seeing Ted McGinley. *g* I hope he'll have more of a part in later episodes.
Life With Bonnie
Um, what happened to the daughter? I had noticed an ad without her but just figured... well, I don't know what I figured. Did the actress leave or was she fired? I thought she was pretty good.
Other than that throwing me off, I enjoyed the episode. Bonnie Hunt is so adorable, and I love her chemistry with Mark Derwin. Like the other shows I saw tonight, I hope this one survives its Friday night time slot.
I'm watching the WKRP mini-marathon on TVLand right now, dedicated to Gordon Jump.
That reminds me... rest in peace, Robert Palmer.
