what’s new?

privileged.jpgWell the majority of the new shows have hit the air and although I’m not sure there are any real stand outs this year there are a few that so far have been added to my repertoire.

  • Easy Money (CW, Sun 9pm) – Nothing is easy as we follow a family that runs one of those high interest loan shops and learn that the favorite son who is keeping the business on track questions the business and whether he is in fact their son.
  • The Ex List (CBS, Fri 9pm) – I don’t know that I won’t get tired of this gal looking up and hooking up with her exes from days gone by but so far the perspective and supporting cast just feel fresh and funny.
  • Life on Mars (ABC, Thurs 10pm) – I’ve never seen the original UK series so I’m not sure how they compare but I am enjoying Jason O’Mara as a present day cop mysteriously finding himself having to solve crimes in the 70s with tough guys Harvey Keitel and Michael Imperioli.
  • The Mentalist (CBS, Tues 9pm) – I do like Simon Baker, and he strikes a good balance with the smug and injured lead character using his peculiar skills in observation and personal interactions to help solve crimes.
  • Privileged (CW, Tues 9pm) – Joanna Garcia is just darned likable as she tries to help two troublesome girls get their grades up while keeping them out of trouble and figuring out how to deal with her own family and live her own life.

  1. I also like the new Christian Slater show “My Own Worst Enemy” even though I’ve only seen one episode. And, I’m sure some of the duds will get canceled soon, please, such as Worst Week.

  2. yes, i have a few other shows i haven’t completely given up on but would like to catch one more of including Gary Unmarried, My Own Worst Enemy, Valentine and the yet to be seen Stylista

  3. I also watched the first hour of the two-hour Crusoe premiere and found it not terribly stale. It’s kind of interesting to see all the cool stuff he’s built on the island, especially in comparison to those lazy Lost castaways who get to live off of Dharma Initiative food.

  4. i am not often embarrased but was having trouble admitting that i kind of liked Crusoe as a kind of bad almost dated made for tv movie, but not sure a series it could work…
