what’s new?

4 Comments

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.

gossip Serena style

1 Comment

gg_s_fashion.jpgIf you missed the season kickoff they’re rerunning the opener tonight (really, repeats already?). But they’re back and getting in the groove and if you just want to know they have been up to so far…

Dan and Serena tried it again because they’re still in love but alas their differences are too great. Meaning they had to continue a contrivance to keep them apart. But good for us because our beloved ascot wearing Chuck decided to screw with them to bring out the old Serena. How we love it when a reformed bad girl goes back to her evil ways.

And why would Chuck want Serena to rise to her old self? Well because her rise should facilitate Blair’s fall. And a fallen Blair is more susceptible to Chuck. This is of course after Blair lost her Duke after finding out he was doing it with his stepmom the Duchess. Ridiculous.

The same Duchess that was doing it with Nathan. Nathan’s summer fling got complicated when she offered him money to cover his prison fleeing dad’s debts. Though Blair tried to blackmail the Duchess to bail out Nathan, Brooklyn’s Vanessa wasn’t patient enough to wait for Blair or honest enough to talk to Nathan and told the Duchess’s husband all. At least that storyline is over.

So then we got into fashion week and watching Little J on her new self destructive turn. Last season she tried to scheme her way up the social ladder and this season she is scheming her way into the fashion world. While working Blair’s mom for her fashion expertise she’s skipping school and of course pissing off Blair. Or are they now developing an alliance? Little J will need some help if she’s quitting school to pursue her dreams.

In other unlikely alliances Dan tries to intern at the school of Chuck to get some new writing fodder. He tries to not just follow in Chuck’s footsteps but to learn what makes Chuck tick (mom killed in childbirth, dad hates him for it…). Chuck doesn’t take to being used so Dan better watch out.

And what of the rest of the parental units? Pops Humphrey has a new girlfriend. I doubt this one’s a keeper but he’s giving it a go instead of pursuing a relationship with the now married Serena’s mom. Serena’s mom apparently has yet another secret to come out as we learn that Chuck’s dad has a dossier that seems to be keeping her in line.

Now that Serena’s deciding not to worry about Blair’s feelings and shine full force, I can only hope there’ll be plenty more juicy gossip to come.

volume 3

2 Comments

Forget where we left off with Heroes last season? Me too, but the premiere episode packed a lot of info, so let’s just dive right in:

The Petrellis and Friends

heroes_v1e2.jpgWell the Petrelli clan is back, apparently future Claire (indestructible) and future uncle Peter (absorbs others’ powers) live in a world where everyone knowing that they’re heroes is a problem, and they all wear a lot of black. So it was future Peter who came back to shoot his brother Nathan (flying man) to shut him up, and then sends Matt (mind reader) off to Africa. Nathan died-ish, and came back a religious nut. Last season’s thought to be dead Niki (split personality super strong Jessica) shows up with a governor who’s calling her Tracy. She’s recruiting Nathan to step back into politics when not using her turning people to ice power. And of course the future was changed, but not necessarily for the better.

The Formula

Hiro (time controller and teleporter) has inherited from his dad Sulu a new sacred duty to protect a secret half of a formula (and his father’s company). Though a new Speedster girl Daphne steals the formula. When Hiro goes to the future to check out what will happen he finds future Hiro getting zapped by future Ando (currently sidekick is ability free) and of course the end of the world. Hiro is torn about bringing Ando with him to track down Daphne but they find her and are on a continued quest to get one of the halves back. If they lose the formula their only hope is to find the person with purity of blood, whatever that means.

The Science

Last year Mohinder (scientist) was hard at work on the antidote to the virus that was stripping the heroes of their powers and even killing them. He was successful, but this season he was tempted to pack it all in. Instead he is talked into helping super annoying Maya (tears of death) and he begins to get more annoying himself. He finds the key ingredient in the abilities and becomes obsessed with being able to give mere mortals abilities of their own. Rather than do scientific testing, he randomly injects himself with the Maya ingredient. After he gets all super powered and spiderman-y, and sleeps with Maya, he crashes like nobody’s crashed before. This does not bode well for the future.

The Villains

Our original villain Sylar (absorbs others’ powers but by killing them) has gone back to his original goal to get Claire’s powers (remember ‘Save the Cheerleader, Save the World’). Turns out Claire is ‘special’ (perhaps pure of blood?) and survived Sylar, but in addition to stealing Claire’s ability he stole the files to the bad ability dudes stuck in Section 5, where Claire’s dad is hanging with present Peter stuck in Veronica Mar’s Weevil’s body. And speaking of VMars, Elle (electro girl) is trying to take down Sylar for killing her dad, but when he tries to kill her she basically explodes and knocks him out, and the power, which lets all of Section 5 out. Oh and did I mention that mama Petrelli is now taking over the organization and getting her son Sylar back in the game. Yes, son.

The one thing we can count on is that good and evil are rarely completely clear, and that someone will always do something stupid, and I’m yet again wondering what that will be. Stay tuned.

threshold for bad

3 Comments

knightrider.jpgSo I watch a lot of shows that I may not be in love with yet but I’m willing to wait to see where they’re going. Some say I have a high threshold for bad television. But there’s bad and then there’s bad. Knight Rider was almost so bad it was good, too bad it was just bad. It was like I was watching a cheesy 70’s show without the nostalgia factor. I will admit that I never really caught the first round so not sure whether being a true fan would help or hurt. I tend to think the new transformer Kitt and the black ops Iraq vet and accidental heart breaker Michael Knight might not live up to the Hoff standard.

What else hasn’t made the cut? Do Not Disturb, where Jerry O’Connell hits on chicks and other hijinks ensue while they’re trying to run a hotel. Just not quite funny. And Worst Week where a guy is humiliating himself and his fiancé’s family by doing things like accidentally urinating on a marinating goose and setting things on fire. I just can’t stand this painful kind of humor.

I’m giving at least one more episode to 90210, Fringe, Gary Unmarried, The Mentalist, and Privileged.

And the premieres are really cooking, get your tivos ready…. New and notable for the week ahead, procrastinator picks are underlined.

Monday

  • Heroes (NBC, 8/9pm) Season Premiere – First we countdown, maybe that means they try to explain what the heck has happened in the first two seasons, then what’s normally an engaging but uneven series has some promising buzz as this year we meet the ‘villains’.
  • Dancing With the Stars (ABC, 8pm, second rounds Wed/Thurs) Season Premiere – Who will delight America this season and how long can we keep Cloris Leachman in the mix?
  • The Big Bang Theory (CBS, 8pm) Season Premiere – This show grew on me throughout last year, as the geeks and their straight woman/hot girl Penny make fun, super misfit Sheldon steals the show.
  • How I Met Your Mother (CBS, 8:30pm) Season Premiere – This show has a great ensemble and the Barneyisms are almost worth it alone.
  • Two and a Half Men (CBS, 9pm) Season Premiere – They’re back with more odd couple shenanigans.
  • Worst Week (CBS, 9:30pm) Series Premiere – Folks are saying this could be funny, but again, not sure about one mishap after another for a whole season.
  • Boston Legal (ABC, 10pm) Season Premiere – Is this show still on? Is this show still getting emmy nominations?
  • CSI: Miami (CBS, 10pm) Season Premiere – I think someone shot Horatio, can anyone really stand David Caruso?

Tuesday

  • Opportunity Knocks (ABC, 8pm) Series Premiere – A game show where families win based on knowledge of each other.
  • NCIS (CBS, 8pm) Season Premiere – I admit I’ve never seen this navy investigation show.
  • Eureka (SciFi, 9pm) Season Finale – Maybe we find out what happened all those years ago and how their new fixer was involved.
  • The Mentalist (CBS, 9pm) Series Premiere – Simon Baker solves crimes after years as a fake celebrity psychic.
  • Law & Order: SVU (NBC, 10pm) Season Premiere – Luke Perry won’t do 90210 so catch him in this ep, will he be creepy?
  • Without a Trace (CBS, 10pm) Season Premiere – I used to watch this show but no longer catch the FBI’s weekly missing person drama.

Wednesday

  • Knight Rider (NBC, 8pm) Series Premiere – Unless there were significant changes from the made for tv movie/pilot this one’s a pass.
  • The New Adventures of Old Christine (CBS, 8pm) Season Premiere – I actually like this ridiculous show where JLDreyfuss and her gang are obnoxious but funny.
  • Gary Unmarried (CBS, 8:30pm) Series Premiere – Jay Mohr deals with his divorced dad lifestyle.
  • David Blaine (ABC, 9pm) – I’m always a little wary of these ‘magicians’ who do something like hang from a wire for days.
  • Criminal Minds (CBS, 9pm) Season Premiere – I think we ended last season with an explosion, is all the team coming back?
  • CSI: NY (CBS, 10pm) Season Premiere – This one isn’t as annoying as Miami and is a decent procedural.
  • Lipstick Jungle (NBC, 10pm) Season Premiere – Of the identical average new chick shows of last season (the other was Cashmere Mafia) this one rolled over to this season, let’s hope they fine tuned things.

Thursday

  • Ugly Betty (ABC, 8pm) Season Premiere – I never quite appreciated this campy soap drama.
  • My Name is Earl (NBC, 8/8:30pm) Season Premiere – Last season’s coma didn’t quite work, let’s hope this season is back to its white trash misfit make amends roots.

  • Grey’s Anatomy (ABC, 9pm) Season Premiere – Now that we’re over most of the Mer/Der drama let’s get back to the rest of the gang.
  • ER (NBC, 10pm) Season Premiere – I recall hearing that this 15th season is the last and they’re trying to get as much of the gang back together as they can, Clooney is a long shot.

Friday

  • Presidential Debate (Various, 6pm/pst) – This election season feels like it has been going on forever but now we could really start to get down to it as Jim Lehrer moderates.

Saturday

  • The Unit (CBS, 10pm) Season Premiere – When the team protects the vice and president elects, they could just paste a current candidates head on the actor’s bodies.
  • Californication (Show, 10pm) Season Premiere – Too easy to make a David Duchovny joke.
  • Little Britain (HBO, 10:30pm) Series Premiere – A fav british sketch show may take a few weeks to get its new american legs.
