So, since I really want to get back involved in fannish things, I figure I better post what I actually watch, am interested in checking out, and *what I used to watch but might have waning interest in, meaning it still records, but I may or may not get to those episodes, and it may eventually be removed from the season pass list.

Thanks for the warm welcome back, everyone. :) I really am going to make a concerted effort to be here.

So, in that vein, let's talk about television...

( some spoilery things may apply...Agents of Shield, NCIS, Alice... )

I have had a Tivo since sometime in 2005. Fandom made me do it, really. Our VCR had broken, and those were still in the days of Alias, first fandom love of my life. Many on my f-list kept talking about "Tivo" and it seemed like such a cool device. I got one, my husband grumbled about the monthly fee, but it was without a doubt one of those pieces ( Read more... )

 So, Criminal Minds: The B Team Suspect Behavior has not been renewed for S2. And just after they finally did something with Gina's character in the season finale! She finally has a history, a personality, a presence! Aaaaand, that's it.

But even though I think the show has improved over the season, it still couldn't compete with the original, so I ( Read more... )

 Lie to Me - If you're not watching it, it's probably the best show you've never seen.  Really interesting stuff, and of course, Tim Roth is an amazing actor.  I loved it so much, I paid to download and watch the first part of S2 on Zune, so I'd be all caught up to watch the second part when it starts airing here soon.  So that hopefully FOX will ( Read more... )

It's that time of year again! When we decide what new shows to add to our returning favorites on the Tivo season pass schedule.

Rhien's schedule so far, new shows italicized:

So far, the third season of Dexter is just as engrossing as the first two. I guess I keep waiting for them to "mess up" and try to "fix" him (at which point, I would stop watching disgustedly.) I mean, it's pretty darn gutsy to make your MC a sociopath and a serial killer, but they did, and it actually works, but it would stop working if he ( Read more... )

I've been in a Fall mood, lately. Last night, I cooked pork chops with mashed potatoes and white gravy. In August. I bought a roast for crock pot cooking this week, and we're supposed to get up into the 90's. I've been thinking a lot about what I want to get various people for Christmas, and when we saw The Time Traveler's Wife yesterday, I was ( Read more... )

So, in just a week or two, some shows will be returning with new episodes. Time for Rhien to figure out her Fall 2008 viewing schedule. NEW shows marked with ** - here it is in all its glory:
