Since anything I like gets canceled you can say goodbye to Glee.
Looking forward to House returning. Wondering what will happen to SVU now that Leno is on in its slot. I will also be watching Sanctuary since it's now on its 2nd season. I'm intrigued by SG-Universe but I'm not holding out much hope. At least the premier will have some familiar eye candy in it ;). I'm a huge SG1 fan (thanks to Keith and Cousin who made me watch the entire series over the summer - srsly, 10 seasons in 2.5 months equals overload) and I'm struggling through Atlantis. I hate, hate, hate the Wraith and it seems that episodes that aren't Wraith centered are completely random. Almost done with season 4 so I'll finish off the series. I've found that more and more shows go unwatched when they are recorded on nights I have hockey games so I don't think I like them as much as I think I do. |

Yep, that's what I figure too. Most of the time the ad is for the show I'm currently watching.

It would seem as if ad purchasing wouldn't be too complex in VOD. In the same way that week to week ad rates are determined by ratings during sweep periods, I would suspect something similar could be done based upon conglomeration of data of how many households are getting the VOD of whichever program. Just as syndicated programs have ads that change with the times, so could these.
And skipping over commercials in VOD is no different than skipping over commercials of what is records on the DVR. In fact, I would suspect that if VOD replaced the DVR, skipping commercials would be less of a problem (for advertisers). |

Still love the Office, waiting for 30 Rock, worried about the Thursday-not-Saturday-not-Weekend-yet-Update taking jokes away from the real SNL (though of course I'm watching it), and have no real interest in anything new.
Ok, Community has me a little curious, but I have a real grudge against Chevy Chase and the commercials had me concerned. I do love Joel McHale... |
Seriously - The Mentalist sucks. Psych does it better. (And got in a couple nice jabs over the past few months.)
Planning to check out Community, Bored to Death, and Flash Forward. Already watching Glee. First episode of Vampire Diaries left me seriously underwhelmed. It gets one more shot and then I'm voting it off the island. Anxiously awaiting the Amazing Race, House, NCIS (which I save for when I'm cleaning and need fluff teevee), and my #1 guilty pleasure: CSI:Miami. |
I basically have two nights I care about. Monday, for HIMYM (and House, I guess - which I quit watching last year, but they just cast a favorite writer/actor of mine as House's roommate, so I guess I'll watch as long as he's on there.) And Thursday, for an eventual lineup that I really love - Community, Parks & Rec, The Office, and my most favorite thing on TV, 30 Rock.
I guess we have stuff on Sunday too but it's not the top of my list. Mad Men, Simpsons, HBO/Jason Schwartzman's new Bored to Death. Oh, also Friday - Dollhouse and The Soup. But mostly it's Monday/Thursday; the other stuff I'll watch when I watch it. |
Do you mean his roommate in the psych ward? If so that appears to be a one-episode thing (I hope so anyway - not because of him but that's not a thread I want them to linger on).
Enjoyed the premiere of House last night. A lot of Cuckoo's Nest but they were perfectly aware of that. The unlikely cure at the end was a bit too out of left field. Curious how they'll reintegrate a less messed up House back at the hospital but I'm sure they will. Was underwhelmed by premiere of How I Met Your Mother. The development of central focus is not one I've any interest in. Episode felt really flat. Heroes and House being two hours overwhelmed my recording abilities since I also wanted HIMYM and Big Bang Theory. By the end of the evening skipped Big Bang Theory figuring I'll eventually see it as a re-run and it isn't like missing an episode of that show screws up the story arc. Continue to enjoy Castle but in the way I enjoy other stupid murder mystery TV (Matloc, Perry Mason, The Mentalist, Murder, She Wrote -- but not Psych or Monk for some reason). |
Do you really love Parks and Rec? 30 Rock isn't my cup of tea but I understand why so many love it. Park and Rec just leaves me wondering who Lorne Michaels blows weekly to have had such a dog renewed.
