So, I started this season with so many new shows on my plate. I tried to sample as many as possible. The DVR is a wonderful thing.
One by one they seem to have dropped off - the new shows are a real dissapointment to me this year with a few exceptions.
Just wondering what new stuff ya'll have been watching and what you have decided isn't worth the time.
Gone from my DVR
- Journeyman - never got above a yawn
- Bionic Woman - Never made it past the ridiculous pilot
- Pushing Daisies - i know a lot of people like this one but I found it grating I have changed my mind about this one and I'm now a fan.
- Reaper - I never laughed, not once. If I want to watch people fight demons I'll stick with Supernatural
So What am I watching this season that makes the TV addict in me Happy?
Chuck - Not great but I love Adam Baldwin and this show makes me laugh.
Moonlight - Mick St John...oh sorry lost my train of thought. Yeah, he's my new TV boyfriend. Love the idea that stakes only paralyze and sunlight is painful but not deadly. They are doing a good job of creating a unique Vampire world.
Returning Favorites:
NCIS: How much did i love this episode. Ducky's flirting with Tori Higgins (SGAs - Dr Weir) so adorable. Loved Ziva challenging Tony to find a real woman - her (we all know that is what she meant). Ziva bonding over a little girl power and the return of Fornell. He and Gibbs are a scary duet in interrogation. But best of all The Princess Bride Reference - great movie and a great twist in the episode.
Supernatural - Nothing much to add to all the reviews floating around expect that Ben rocks and he's really Dean's son no matter how much Lisa denies it. I know it's true because fanfiction has already declared it to be so :)
Heroes - Finally steps up to the plate. Matt's Dad is one of the Nine and the Boogeyman. Plus they explain where his wife went. The wonder twins find Sylar and actually get interesting. Micah's Cousin can mimic any talent she sees. Is it just from TV or any where?
Stargate:Atlantis - Still love this show and I think the addition of Carter may not be as awful as I once thought. If they curb Rodney's stalker tendencies they may actually have a fun relationship. The Ronon centric episodes are always good. Seeing Tori on NCIS made me miss her though and I hope she isn't gone for good.
So
trystan830 and I were talking about staying with a series to the bitter end. She stays but I am more likely to bail. That got me wondering which shows are you still watching but don't know why and which one have you bailed on. Just curious
I am willing to drop many shows when they begin to annoy me like CSI:Miami - haven't watched since Speed died - or when a favorite character leaves like ER when Clooney left. I still watch Smallville, though - go figure.
