Hubby & I just finished watching the new ABC series "FlashForward" (Thursday) & tell ya what... it's going to be another one just like LOST... one you're going to be hooked on! I know I am already!
Tuesday was the return the great show NCIS & the premiere of the spin off NCIS: Los Angeles (on CBS)... Just like their predecessor, JAG... it's well worth 2 hours of viewing!
My DVR will be working overtime on Tuesday's because there are 2 other new shows that I watched last night... "The Good Wife" (CBS) with Julianne Margulies & "the forgotten" (ABC).
"The Good Wife" is actually another lawyer / investigation type of show... & is a lot better than I thought it was going to be. (Love it when things turn out like that.)
I was concerned "the forgotten" (yes, no capitalization is how it's to be) would be another series that Christian Slater's name may have over emphasized the goodness of it... however, yet again I was surprised! ;o)
(btw... I'm not really giving a synopsis on these shows, because I figure you have seen the previews or can look it up. Just giving my opinion about them. ... Also, I'm a bit tired, so my wording may not be "up to par".)
Moving on to Wednesday nights... Well, a new show with Kelsey Grammar ("Hank" on ABC) does not start until this coming week... Looks good. Truly hope that it's better than the one that CBS had him in last year. (Where he was a news anchor. It was ok... but the writing really needed some help.)
We still have to watch "Gary Unmarried" (Starring Jay Mohr)... so, can't give you a review... However, the show seemed to get better as it neared the end of it's 1st season... and from the previews, looks like Mohr may have a hit.
Now we're to Thursday nights... another night the DVR will have a work out. Along with the previous mentioned, "FlashForward" was also the return of "Grey's Anatomy"... knowing that one of my favorite hospital series ("ER") was ending... I started to get hooked into "Grey's" & as a commercial said about the season finale being unforgettable... well, so was the season premiere! Not only is it funny where it needs to be... but it's also drama packed, with tear-jerking scenes.
I'm actually looking forward to it's spin-off, "Private Practice", season premiere, next Thursday... they left us with a great cliff hanger. Not sure though I'll keep up with that show... We'll see if they turn things around this year.
My poor DVR... Friday's are going to be another busy night... CBS saved the show "Medium" from NBC's axe & put it in the line up between their big hits: "Ghost Whisperer" (with Jennifer Love Hewitt) & "NUMB3RS"...
Saturday's & Sunday's are reserved mainly for football & NASCAR. *giggles* (Nope, I don't watch "Desparate Housewives".) So, I'm sure those days will be reserved to watch some of the shows we have on the DVR. (Oh... "The Bill Engvall Show" on TBS is usually on Saturday's now... but the next 2 weeks doesn't seem to be any new shows. They had their season start over a month ago. Must be because it's cable. Just a guess.) ;o)
I say this is part 1... because of all the stuff we still have to watch... Though, I can pretty much say this... it's all good tv viewing! ;o)
Now the question to you is, what are some of your favorites that have returned & what new shows are you watching???
(Of course there are shows like "Dancing with the Stars" that I didn't mention... but that's because... well, just because. LOL)
Well let's see.... a lot of our favorite shows haven't returned yet, but so far we're watching Gary Unmarried on Wednesdays, NBC's lineup on Thursdays (which includes my favorite, The Office), and Ghost Whisperer and Dollhouse on Fridays. (Eureka, also on Fridays, had their season finale last week, so that's not on any more for now.) We actually haven't watched a lot of them for this week yet, but have them recorded on the DVR instead.
ReplyDeletei recorded a bunch of stuff... NCIS and the new one. I like Warehouse 13 (on SyFy) and of course Ghost Hunters. There's Bones, Supernatural, Criminal Minds, CSI NY, Monk, Psych, so I really hope it rains today so I can curl up on the couch and watch everything I've recorded and I also watch Ghost Whisper, Medium, and Numbers. I really haven't watched any of the new shows. I was going to watch the CW's The Vampire Diaries (think I spelled that wrong but I'm still asleep!) but it's on the same time as Bones and I'm at work at that time! So Bones wins!! I like The Closer to on TNT but their season is already done... I don't get to watch Dexter this season because I can't afford to get Showtime right now and it starts tomorrow night (BOO HOO) well everyone enjoy your shows!
ReplyDeleteI just realized that I forgot to mention The Mentalist. Hubby and I love that show too! :o)
