Back to the favourite TV shows

thank goodness for the autumn lineup on TV, an excuse to just sit back and veg out!

Current favourite shows:

Mondays

Terminator: the Sarah Connor Chronicles

Chuck – returning Monday nights

Heroes – Silas is back  yeah!

Tuesdays

House

Fringe – brilliant new sc fi show from the makers of Lost

The Mentalist – saw the pilot show on Friday and it was good, so has been added to the list.

Gavin and Stacey – British comedy series. Brings back memories of living in Newport and going to Barry Island

Without a Trace

Eli Stone- nice fantasy

Wednesdays

Bones

Pushing Up Daisies – back this week!

Thursdays

ER-god the 1st episode last Thursday had me sobbing my heart out

Ugly Betty

My Name is Earl

Kath and Kim – new program. It looks good in the commercials so will give it a try

The Office

Life on Mars – new program based on a BBC series.  That was good so will tune in to see how this turns out.

CSI

Fridays

Bill Maher – appears to be only decent program on a Friday night

Saturday nights appear to a complete wash out as well, so it catch up time on the DVR or going to the movies time

Sundays are a wash out at the moment as well, hence the reason I am on the PC at this time of night.

Just as well we have a DVR, saves us seeing all those commercials and a one hour show only lasts 45 -50 mins plus I get to see them when I don’t feel in the mood to be creative – actually that is most of the time!

I am sure there are some programs I have missed or aren’t starting until the winter season in January like Lost. No doubt some will be cancelled as well, but I have high hopes for the 2 new ones I am watching at the at the moment.  Reality shows are a bust with me, they might have entertaining the 1st couple of seasons but then the contestants get savvy (or think they do) with what the viewers want or wanted last season and then the novelty is lost.  So no Supernanny, Survivor, Dancing with the Stars, Idol etc. for this viewer thanks very much.

  1. Did you keep ER for me? :( I completely forgot about it

  2. I hope Kath and Kim U.S. style translates but if you want to see a really bizarre comedy see if you can get the original Australian series…

    I hope that they run it over there as I know they have changed it to make it understandable in the US, really not giving people the benefit to see something from another culture fresh and funny.

    I love My name is Earl!
