Dexter
Battlestar (In fucking '09)

That's about it.

I heard Tru Blood is about as awful as TV can get. That's from the completed pilot, viewed by a 6 Feet Under fan.


I figured. The ad campain is way too out of control. I'll give it a shot though.

I can't bring myself to watch Battlestar. I'm a geek, no doubt about it, but I fear that becming obsessed with that show like so many people are, would be crossing a line I could never uncross. I feel this way about comics too. I read the Buffy and Angel comics, but I'm scared to venture further into that world. redface



I'll try it too, just for Alan Ball giving us Six Feet Under. He deserves a shot just for that.

I would have watched Heroes if they would have just called it "Ripoff of X-Men". I like honesty in my TV.

Exactly the way I feel about it too! That and it really didn't do anything for me, it just got really bland and boring halfway through the 1st season to me.

But I NEED my new Lost fix already! Don't make me wait!

Honestly, that's probably why I watch it.

I love Lost. I think Season 2 of Heroes gets a bad wrap, because there was a lot of good in there. I'm ready for BSG to wrap up!

Why in the world would you be disgusted with yourself for wanting a TiVo? I've had one since 2001. I got an iPod the same year -- two of my favorite products of all time. woot!

I never used to watch TV. NEVER. I went years without turning on a television set, but gradually it seems I've become a TV addict. And now I'm actually really excited about the fall season starting up. I'm disgusted with myself, but I'm considering getting Tivo. confused

I can't wait for Lost,Dexter,House,This American Life,Pushing Daises,Dirty Sexy Money,and Supernatural to come back. I skipped season 2 of Heroes but I think they might win me back for season 3. I've never watched Reaper, but people keep telling me how kick ass that is, and I do feel the need to see what is going to happen next on Gossip Girl. Then there is a whole new crop of shows I'm basicly salivating for.

Here's a run down of the new TV crack I will be wasting hours of my life on in a just a short couple of weeks.

Fringe


J. J. Abrams makes a show starring the hot voiced guy from Dawson's Creek. drool

Wikipedia says "Like Abrams' previous TV shows, it will have an overarching mythology" Omg. I am so ready for this, but I just get the feeling it won't last. Hope I'm wrong. geek



True Blood




I'm sure you have all been assaulted with the fake blood ads for HBO's new Vampire show. It's made by the same guy as Six Feet Under. I'm super curious about this but I'm gaurded about Vampire shows since Moonlight turned out to be so freaking unwatchable. confused I'm not sure I'll watch further than the 3 episode rule.

90210

I'm pretty sure I don't have to explain this one. woot!

And then there is .....

Dollhouse



Kinda like Alias but with a Sci Fi twist.
And it's Whedon...like hello?? woot!



Ok so that's all I can recall right now...

What shows are you guys excited about?

I know I'm not alone.

geek


BE WARY of Dollhouse AND Fringe. First they are on FOX which doesn't know it's ass from a nanny's 5th grader. They DO NOT promote shows that don't pull in instant numbers. Fringe might get some lift as it's one of the few new Sci-fi shows out in the fall (just being a new show is a big deal this season). It'ss JJ Abrahms and it might do ok. I might check it out, though it is FOX and I really have my doubts after Firefly, Drive, and Arrested Development.

Dollhouse is almost doomed. Wierd premise, midseason show (usually the kiss of death) AND it's another Whedon/Minear affair with FOX. I don't get it, you'd think after 2 burns with FOX that Whedon/Minear would back far away.

Desperate Housebitches - We'll see

Ugly Betty - I'm There
Pushing Daisies - NOTHING will be able to stop me form watching. I miss and adore this show so much
Reaper - woot!

And my usual...Mad Men - will be over, Closer - will be over. Lost in Jan. South Park whenever.

lol True I look like a rental store now!

Netfix should let you watch Tv shows on the computer like they do the movies. Rich would get mad if I junked up the queque with TV shows.


oh my god, i'd be in high hog heaven if i could netflix tv shows on my computer.

as for junking up the queue, i always keep tv shows at the bottom and pop one disc to the top when i'm feeling movied-out. then again, my bf and i have separate netflix queues, so the only person i annoy with my netflixing habits is myself.


Some TV shows you can "Watch Now". Not many, but some like Dexter.

Heroes sucked last year!!! But this whole Villans campaign has me willing to check out the first few episodes. nod


heroes sucked, but it didn't suck as bad as lost did when it sucked for a few episodes in a row the season before last. that's kind of my barometer of tv show suckage at the moment.


Ah yes the lull...where we get terrific episodes like the one with Bai Ling ill I have to say that while the episodes weren't that good, they were better than some other things on TV. Lost has a high quality barrier and sometimes they can't hit the mark they set for themselves. I am sure all filler episodes are now out of the way, now that there is only ..26 more episodes. eek neutral sad bawl
