Premier Week

Ok, I am mostly caught up on Fall TV Premiers. I don't know if it is from system overload or what but overall I wasn't all that impressed. I know that premiers are usually used for catch up or setting up the show for the rest of the season so I am not too disappointed but I guess it is like Christmas - something you look forward to for weeks then when it is over you are somewhat sad. The good thing is this isn't over and we have lots more brand new episodes to come (plus we still have Christmas to look forward to - and LOST). Don't get me wrong, I loved a lot of what I saw. And this is what I watched...

How I met your mother - I like this show despite stupid Barney (although for some reason even Barney is growing on me). Enrique was a nice treat. Mandy Moore being hard core was just stupid. Lily's hair looked really bad to me. I love that Ted got a Ho Stamp.

Heroes - A little weird with a lot of set up for future episodes. I loved the end though with Peter. Not sure how I feel about Claire and the stalker boy. Is he cute? I can't tell. And what is the deal with Nathan Petrelli? From successful politician to bum? And what about the Spanish girl, what is her scary power? I want to know who the hoodie guy was that killed Hiro's dad. Oh and I am excited for Hiro's storyline because Kensai is cute.

Gossip Girl - my new guilty pleasure. I know that this show is total trash but I love it. Trash, not because of terrible acting or bad characters, but trash because seriously look at the title - I shouldn't love such evil drama. But, it is entertaining and Satan wins this round. If you haven't watched it yet you should so I can talk with you about Serena and cute boy Dan, psycho ex-bff Blaire and hot off-limits Nate, evil-like-the-fruits-of-the-devil Chuck, and cute-but-naive Jenny. And who the heck is Gossip Girl?

Grey's Anatomy - I don't know about this people. I was just so bugged with the way the show was headed and ended last season that I am not sure if I can get into this show again (who am I kidding, I will continue to watch it just like I continue to watch Desperate Housewives). It am kind of excited to get to know some new characters but I am sad about what has happened to my old favorites. I still love Christina, but I kind of hate that Burke is gone (I mean they sure made it easier because they made Christina and Burke so stupid for several episodes before kicking him off, but they used to be my favorite so I am sad they ruined them). I am also sad about my other favorites, George and Izzy. Why do they have to make them adulterers? Evil writers. But I like new Lexi way more than stupid Merideth. But like my pal, Mandee said - what is the deal with the writers making everyone sound the exact same with the same stupid speeches? And seriously, Merideth I am sick of your stupid issues and breaking up with McDreamy. Hey, I understand people have problems from a messed up childhood, but suck it up whiner and deal with life. Ok, enough about that. Lets see what happens this week.

My Name is Earl - Funny, but an hour is too long. And Earl needs to get out of prison. Joy is still my favorite. Good times.

The Office - much anticipated premier. However, I also think an hour is too long for this show. I just think it stretches them too thin. The second half was way better than the first half - although I don't think I have ever laughed harder than the moment Michael hit Merideth. I love love loved the part with Jim getting in Pam's car. FINALLY! I just love them! And I love that Dwight killed Angela's cat. Maybe I am not as much of an Office purest as some of you, but episodes that are mostly about Michael are my least favorite because Michael drives me crazy. So, I look forward to this week and hope it has more Pam and Jim and more Dwight.

Las Vegas - Hey, it's my hometown, of course I have to watch it (plus my boyfriend Josh is on it). Seriously, this show just gets more and more ridiculous, especially when you hear Sam spell it out like she did in the beginning, but I love it! Of all the characters to be gone I am glad it is Mary (her freaky lips and boobs were just too much) and Ed. While I love Ed, he is a pretty terrible actor so...whatever. Not sure how I feel about Tom Selleck now being on it, but we'll see.

Desparate Housewives - Don't know why I keep watching this show, but I do and the premier wasn't all that bad. Edie is psycho, Gabrielle can't not cheat on a husband, Susan is pregnant?, Bree should buy a better fake belly if she wants to pull off being pregnant, Lynette (my favorite) functions way too well to be in the middle of chemo, and what is the story with new neighbor Katherine?

Well, there you have it. Way more info than you ever wanted about TV, but I can't help myself. I missed Private Practice, but I am not too sad about it. Brian stopped the recording of Journeyman because he thought it looked too stupid. I watched part of Big Shots and Dirty Sexy Money and wasn't very impressed. I can't wait for 30 Rock and Scrubs this week. So, what did you think about the Fall premiers?
