Thoughts on the new TV Season - Page 3

I forgot about NCIS, the original. Not into this spin off crap (yes, I know NCIS was a spin off of JAG, but it is a different premise. NCIS LA is just another NCIS, but in LA. Without Mark Harmon).

We also enjoyed the premiere of House last night, though I'm a sucker for the tug-at-your-heart stuff that was crammed into the final act. Heather looked at me and rolled her eyes. We're both looking forward to the diagnostic plot lines again.

As for Parks and Recreation, I watched all six episodes of season one and the season two premiere over the past few days. This show proves is a great illustration of a whole being less than the sum of its parts. Love the cast - the show bores me. Oh well.

Community was hilarious (and sad, seeing how old Chevy Chase is now) so we'll definitely catch that again. Glee; meh. We watched Mercy last night, and had very high hopes, but they were completely broken. Total Gray's Anatomy rip-off, complete with overcooked dialog, mopey Frodo faces every two minutes, asinine situations, and a bar across the street to end the episode in. What a let down.

Thank Zeus So You Think You Can Dance is on again!

Parks and Recreation, Community, Glee, and Accidentally on purpose : All one and done for me. Next.

I think I'll pass on "Fast Forward". I don't think I can take another Lost type show. Someone PM me when we eventually learn why everyone passed out for 2min.

I did enjoy the Big Bang Theory Premier.

Am I the only one watching Pawn Stars?

Disappointed in the House premier.

Still enjoying Glee.

NCIS premier was good, need to watch it again because of my cold induced haze. I feel like I missed some crucial plot points though I loved the ending.

TiVO was recording SVU premier so I'll watch that this weekend.

I loved Leno at 1130 (yes, minority here) but I'm apathetic towards his new show. Mainly because I don't want to see TV continue to move away from serialized shows into reality/live TV.

Not for me. I would rate it as a clumsy version of "How I met your mother"

I'm looking forward to a show called "The Middle". I LOVED Malcolm in the Middle, and this looks to have the same general feel....at least from the promos I've seen.

It was exactly as advertised but it wasn't good. I may give it one more watch but that's it.

Anyone else watching Robin Hood on BBC America or Ruby and the Rockets on ABC Family?

I'm getting pretty bored with How I met your mother. Meet her already for gods sakes. Big Bang is still awesome. Waiting for Lie to Me next week.
