New and notable in the week ahead… procrastinator picks are underlined.
Monday
- Heroes (NBC, 8pm) Season Premiere – I just couldn’t take it anymore so I have no idea what they’re up to and I’d like to keep it that way.
- House (Fox, 8pm) Season Premiere – I am not entirely sure why I still watch this show, every episode they almost kill someone until they save them and House is an ass, but now I just need to see if he’s an insane ass.
- Dancing with the Stars/Castle (ABC, 8/10pm) Season Premiere – I don’t watch the dance but I am taken in by Fillion on Castle.
- How I Met Your Mother/Accidentally on Purpose/Two and a Half Men/The Big Bang Theory/CSI: Miami (CBS, 8-11pm) Season/Series Premiere – Accidentally is supposed to be a stinker but Mother and Big Bang are pretty consistently funny, and I never watch Caruso on CSI.
- Brick City (Sund, 10pm) Series Premiere – First of a five-part series on Newark NJ.
- Misadventures (Trav, 10pm) Series Premiere – First Brazil and then Burma.
Tuesday
- NCIS/NCIS: Los Angeles/The Good Wife (CBS, 8-11pm; GW repeats Sat 9pm) Season/Series Premieres – First the original which I’ve honestly never see, then LL Cool J and Chris O’Donnell head up the latest spinoff, does this mean CSI: L&O: NCIS: Boston is next? But wait, Wife is supposed to be a great mix of drama and cases.
- The Forgotten (ABC, 10pm) Series Premiere – Christian Slater heads up volunteers helping to fight crime.
- The Naughty Kitchen with Chef Blythe Beck (Oxy, 10pm) Series Premiere – More reality fare on the menu as they follow a chef and her team.
- Table for 12 (TLC, 10/10:30pm) Season Premiere – I think this is the one with more kids and no tabloid divorce.
Wednesday
- The New Adventures of Old Christine/Gary Unmarried/Criminal Minds/CSI: NY (CBS, 8-11pm) Season Premieres – First some laughs and then some murder, not to give anything away.
- Mercy/L&O: SVU (NBC, 8-10pm; Mercy repeats Sat 9pm) Series/Season Premiere – The lives of three nurses and then back to the special victims.
- Modern Family/Cougar Town/Eastwick (ABC, 9-11pm; MF/CT repeat Fri 9pm) Series Premieres – With this chunk of new shows let’s hope for a winner, rumor has it Family is the best on this block.
Thursday
- CSI/The Mentalist (CBS, 9/10pm) Season Premiere – I’ll pass on CSI but I do like Baker’s charms.
- Flash Forward/Grey’s Anatomy (ABC, 8/9pm; FF repeats Fri 8pm) Series/Season Premiere – First the blackout that is the premise for at least one season and then George is out and Izzie is in, except for the break Heigl takes to shoot her movie, would that be at the same time Mer is out maternity leave, damn me for still watching this show.
Friday
- Brothers/Dollhouse (Fox, 8/9pm; Brothers repeats Sun 7pm) Series/Season Premiere – This new show isn’t supposed to be all that but tune in to see what the latest capers Echo and the crew get into.
- Smallville (CW, 8pm) Season Premiere – Clark continues.
- Ghost Whisperer/Medium/Numb3rs (CBS, 8pm) Season Premieres – Don’t tune into the two visions shows but do tend to catch the crime math.

Saturday
- 48 Hours Mystery (CBS, 10pm) Season Premiere – I’m not even sure why it’s 2 days.

Sunday
- Extreme Makeover: Home Edition/Desperate Housewives/Brothers & Sisters (ABC, 7/9/10pm) Season Premiere – Construction, soapy drama, whiny drama.
- The Simpsons/The Cleveland Show/Family Guy/American Dad (Fox, 8pm) Season/Series Premiere – Animation all night long.
- 60 Minutes/The Amazing Race/Cold Case (CBS, 7/8/10pm) Season Premieres – News, racing, and an old crime set to old music.

so Dharma is always likable but in Accidentally the premise and supporting cast just don’t have it going on.
NCIS: LA was fine but can’t imagine adding it to the list, the Good Wife has enough talented folks to mean it might work, the Forgotten was dare I say forgettable but I may give it another shot just for Slater.
Modern Family had enough funny and enough potential while i think i described Cougar as drunk Monica from Friends and though i wanted to like the three women of Eastwick i can’t see what they’re going to do each week that would interest me.
oh and speaking of what it’s going to be week after week Flash Forward so far hasn’t executed the premise in a way that makes me want to come back but i’ll definitely tune in to another ep to see if i can get a sense of where they’re trying to go…
i will not tune in again to Brothers which really just wasn’t funny at all.
I actually laughed during Modern Family. I thought it had enough different characters to make it interesting.
Californication is great too and involves lots of sexy stuff in this tv series.”~”
i love to watch Californication, all those pretty girls wowwww.~;
Californication could be have been better but the story is just average;:;
