That time of year again...

[empressjolie]

So, I had planned to have this posted well over a week ago. But since my Fall TV Preview issue of Entertainment Weekly didn't arrive until this past Thursday the 8th (instead of on the 2nd like it was supposed to) I'm a bit behind

I have insomnia, so I don't sleep much. TV is a good way to pass the time I've discovered

[jingamoffin]

Ok, so I'm an Aussie so I have to download most [if not all] of these. Thank gawd for hard drive space eh? Aaaanyway:

Arrested Development. I’m not sure if this is before or after KC but it’s my favourite comedy so it’s going first on my list. God I love this show.

Kitchen Confidential. I love Bradley too much. Also, Nick Brendon and John Daley were in two of my favourite shows ever so I want to support them. ;)

How I Met Your Mother. Same as above. Alyson has been in TWO of my favourite shows ever and Jason Segal was in Freaks & Geeks like John Daley. I might not be able to stomach the laugh track, but I’ll certainly try.

Prison Break. I too love me some Wentworth.

House. I might watch. It’s a little formulated for my liking but Hugh Laurie is sexy as House and the snark amuses me.

My Name Is Earl. Jason Lee is just the best. I’m a little concerned about this but I’ll probably watch it anyway.

SVU. Yeah I fancy Chris Meloni. So sue me. *blush*

ANTM. Guilty pleasure? Perhaps. Fun? Heck yeah! I like the Australian one better

[empressjolie]

Hehehe. TV is wonderful! And yes, hard drive space ROCKS! hehe..

Yeah I feel the same way about KC.

Chris Meloni is BEYOND hot! So intense, and tough and just...*sigh*, yummy! :D I could not BELIEVE that was really him in "Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle".

I would LOVE to see the Australian version of ANTM, that would be hilarious! How much did you love it when Tyra went OFF last season on Tiffany for not being sad enough at getting eliminated? That was both frightening and awesome!

Reunion is so soapy and awesome...and it's got a really cool concept. I like high-concept shows (hence my Prison Break love).

hehehe...awww, LOST. Yeah, it does cause banging-head-against-wall syndrome. hehe. DAMN HATCH!

I like your picks too. The internet is a LOVELY thing!

[jingamoffin]

Mmmm Meloni!Lust! I haven't seen H&K but I don't think I really want to...

Yeah the Aussie version is so funny. The girls are the biggest bitches you have no idea! Aussie girls have this no nonsense attitude about them and the catfights were many. Good times. Tyra going off was hilarious! I don't think it was supposed to but it cracked my shit up. Is it true that one of the rewards this year will be to meet the boys from VM? I hope that's still going ahead...

Reunion's concept is awesome but I just wish they'd spent as much time on character development. Oh well, it may get better yet. ;)

Stupid LOST.

Yay for the internet! I'd have terrible taste in TV if it wasn't for downloading. The good shows they put on TV here is Aus are few and far between. :(

[empressjolie]

hehe. H&K isn't for everyone, but I loved it! It's what rekindled my NPH (Neil Patrick Harris aka Doogie Howswer) love! hehehe.

Here's the link to my entry about VM and ANTM: http://www.livejournal.com/users/empressjolie/20530.html?nc=27

It should definitely still be on! :D

Yeah, I'm hoping for more character development as the years go by. It's hard for a pilot to be heavy on character development, so I'm gonna give it some time. :D

Awww, that sucks. So what other US shows have you watched/loved over the years?

[queen_haq]

Ok, this is gonna sound weird but I used to be such a major TV freak but ever since I got hooked into VM badly, I've kinda stopped watching everything else.. (how weird is that???????)Nothing else even comes close to the goodness that is VM

[jingamoffin]

Nothing else even comes close to the goodness that is VM.
So true. VM shits on every other show out there. It's ruined TV for me!

And James Spader? S-E-X-Y.

[queen_haq]

Honestly, I never thought I'd say it but VM has definitely ruined TV for me, as well. I mean, even when I watched Buffy and Angel, i'd watch other stuff but wiht VM, it's like I don't even give a shit about the other shows?

BTW, when are you going to read my Forest Fuckage Logan story????????
You must give it a shot. He gives head. In the forest. 'Nuff said.

[jingamoffin]

I know! Damn VM and its perfectness! Real word? I think not. Do I care? No.

Oh I'm primed to read it now! *dies at the prospect of Logan giving head* Point me in the right direction my lovely. Rawr!

Meanwhile you should check out pretty_music and download some of the songs I’ve slaved over a hot rapidshare to upload for you all… ;)

[empressjolie]

That is so sad. TV is wonderful!!
hehe.

Yeah, I was bummed about Lost's season finale too. But...I'm optimistic. :D I'll let you know if it's awesome. :D

Pretty boys and scary things? Sounds like our kind of show!

I totally agree, SVU is the best of all the L&Os.

Ryan mocking Summer is EXACTLY what I was thinking about when I mentioned the cuteness of the first episode!!! MindTriplets strike again! :D
And, of course, I HATE Marissa too! No surprise there.

[empressjolie]

Damn babe! And I thought I was the only one TV addicted! hehehe. But of course, my long-lost-twin, you'd love TV shows as much as me!!!

Your list is awesome. hehe.
The only show I hadn't heard of was "Emily's Reasons Why Not". What's that about?

[empressjolie]

Here are the names of shows that you watch that I'm gonna
Veronica Mars
Scrubs
Reunion (though I don't have the first ep)
Numb3rs
That 70s Show (which I don't usually tape)

There might be more shows later, but I have to see how things turn out. Which shows catch my eye.
I used to tape/keep:
Alias
Joan of Arcadia
Buffy
Angel
Jake 2.0
Firefly
Friends
John Doe
Ally McBeal
and some others.

I still tape Gilmore Girls, but you don't watch that. :D
