Oh my god TV
Holy shit, the new season of TV totally snuck up on me and now there’s like a billion things I have to talk about.
In dramas, we have Bones, House, and Dollhouse all starting up again. I seem to be the only person left in the country who doesn’t actually care all that much about House — I watch it if someone else in the vicinity is watching, but I don’t follow it myself. I may also be dropping Bones from my lineup. Dollhouse is still in; I’ll probably post about the premiere soon. I’ve also recently gotten hooked on Heroes, but I’m not going to start watching current episodes until I’m caught up, which may take a while since I’m only just finishing season 1.
Also: Gossip Girl. My dirty little not-so-secret.
In comedies, there are a bunch of new ones I’m watching. We have Parks and Recreation, which I haven’t written about before, but I have seen all the episodes and I like it. There’s Community, which is completely new; it looks pretty funny but I can’t say it really holds my attention, except for Ken Jeong’s (Señor Chang) amazing rant in the second episode. There’s (oh God don’t make me say it) Cougar Town, which I would ordinarily give an emphatic “hell to the no” but it’s created by Bill Lawrence, so I have to give it a chance. I may be writing about it.
The only other show I watch regularly that starts this fall is 30 Rock. The others (Chuck, Better Off Ted, “Scrubs” with emphatic quotation marks) are all slated for midseason, as far as I know.
And I swear I have a whole bunch of crap written about the Scrubs (real Scrubs) finale, which I will post eventually.
