Well, yay! finally, as you said last week, now we’re cooking with gas.
In looking through the shows, i am ashamed to note that my choices are heavily skewed by the boys associated with them: 1) i have a big crush on seth macfarlane and love stewie, so will probably be watching the family guy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aJSmANHxY0Q&mode=related&search=,
2) i of COURSE will be watching the bachelor - a train wreck i hope - please god the guy is not a total dolt this year, and 3) yay for logan’s return! i miss my favorite teen drama, and maybe by piecing together moonlight and the VO on Gossip Girl, it’ll assuage the pain…
For those of you who might have some scheduling problems you can catch a few of these other shows at additional times this week (remember to check your local listings since these reruns aren’t always all that reliable):
- Dancing with the Stars (ok this doesn’t rerun but there are two other episodes this week 9/25 8pm remaining performers and 9/26 8pm results)
- Chuck (9/29 9pm and 9/30 11pm on scifi)
- Heroes (9/29 8pm)
- Journeyman (9/27 7pm on scifi and 10/1 12am on scifi)
- L&O SVU (9/29 10pm)
- Cane (9/29 9pm)
- Reaper (9/27 9pm)
- Bionic Woman (9/28 7pm scifi)
- Moonlight (9/29 8pm)
i haven’t seen most of the shows on the list, but i DO like Chuck and Reaper. They seem oddly similar - in the same vein as “Knocked Up” and “Superbad.” I guess the kind but unmotivated slacker hero is much in vogue these days. I commented on chuck earlier, but I love the fact that his mean quasi-spy bully/ally is now one of his co-workers - i guess the fact that he’s from the NSA has a sort of “post 9/11″ quality about it - also love that he’s in a showdown with his former stockroom partner for the asst. manager job; as far as reaper goes - also love that his friends just take it into stride that he know is battling demons, and have even gone so far as to join the battle. the ever-present pack of dogs (ie, hounds from hell) are there are a nice touch- especially like that they’re still scared of the vacuum cleaner! will def be watching these two again.
(9/26) so what do we think of new shows so far
- CW Now - was a blur of uninformative and uninteresting entertainment news - not good, pass
- Online Nation - felt a bit like america’s funniest home movies on the web - for me not good, pass
- * Chuck - i thought the description of office meets alias was apt, totally fun action but a little campier with our non-spy nerd as protagonist - liked it!
- Journeyman - i wasn’t in love with the bouncing around in time intrigue but liked the characters enough to give it another shot - stay tuned
- * Reaper - again i thought the buffy-esque description was pretty good, it struck a good tone between camp and actually handling a more serious side to our guy’s new role and like the supporters - liked it! (9/27)
- Cane - eh, i really wasn’t expecting to love this and i didn’t, there’s a tough balance to strike with seriously dramatic and soapy despicable characters and i just didn’t think they did it, might watch one more time but probably not - pass
- Bionic Woman - i thought they did a good job with the update and the setup, jaime’s in a tough position but to be honest she hasn’t won my heart, though i’m definitely interested to see the tone and content of the next couple of shows - stay tuned
- Life - eh, i kind of liked the mix of characters and the standalone and overarching stories but it just wasn’t quite all there, will probably give it another shot - stay tuned (10/1)
- The Big Bang Theory - eh, there were one or two amusing moments but for the most part it didn’t grab me, may watch again after HIMYM but may switch to Aliens in America - stay tuned
- Private Practice - eh, not in love with the messed up cast of characters in the alternative medical team, tough competition with GGirl and BionicW so who will win the time slot - stay tuned
- * Dirty Sexy Money - Over the top fun and they’ve got one of every kind of bad behaving rich types, I found the first episode a delight - liked it!
- Big Shots - great cast but come on, what kind of show were they even trying to do, drama, campy soap, amusing slice of life?, Dirty Sexy Money wins this time slot - pass
- Moonlight - this was just a very bad wannabe Angel show, if even our beloved Logan can’t make a 400 year old sassy vampire sidekick intersesting i don’t know that there’s any hope, and that blonde girl totally reminded me of a wooden Elizabeth Rohm (Angel and L&O), ugh - pass
I couldn’t understand some parts of this article next week 9/23, but I guess I just need to check some more resources regarding this, because it sounds interesting.
Hi friend, I found your blog on Google while searching for private investigators miami and your post regarding next week 9/23 looks very interesting for me. Ive bookmarked the post in my digg account.

looks like Online Nation is getting the boot and Aliens in America may reap the benefits of a repeat slot ’til further notice
