Sadly, because I'm a HUGE loser, one of my favorite times of year is when new shows premier in the fall.
Currently my DVR is at 88% which can partly be blamed on my renewed obsession with
! The rest of the dvr, other than the 20 hours of
that my wife and I have stocked piled, is new fall programming. The pilot episode of any show is never amazing (except Modern Family) but there has to be that moment where you like a character or you laugh out loud...if that hasn't happened by the 2nd episode (1st episode if it's an hour long show) I'm out! Here is how the current fall line up is looking.
is one of my favorite new shows. I would love pretty much anything Ms. Applegate does and Mya Rudolph literally makes my stomach ache the next day! The good thing about this show is that the comedy doesn't seemed forced and when Mya said "Edge of Seventeen" in the pilot episode, I literally re-watched that clip 10 times. I see it being around for a while! Another great new show, my wife's favorite, is
. Different, quirky, and funny in it's own way, Zooey isn't afraid to look like an idiot which makes for great tv!
is one that I wrote off just based on the story line, but it has its moments. The bad/dirty girl meets heiress thing is kinda played out but it has its moments and since CBS has nothing else on except Survivor, I think it will make it...but no more than one season. Chelsea Lately employee Whitney Cummings produces broke girls...and also stars in
which seems to be getting good reviews but I tried to watch it and within in the first 2 segments the series recording was deleted from the DVR. EWW
is probably my favorite new Fall show, and if the picture doesn't explain why, it's because rachel bilson makes me look like I have rabies.
. The show is decently written, and is an easy, feel-good hour of tv. To say that Bilson is likable is an understatement.
had me before it even premiered. Emily Vancamp, a transplant from one of my fave shows ever,
stars in this very well written, unpredictable drama, no humor here but its addictive! Speaking of Brothers & Sisters (RIP) I knew ABC had to put an excellent show in that time slot, and they did.
is great!It makes me wish I lived in that era where people dressed up to take a flight! Theshow has an obvious "mad men" feel that I love and newbie Margot Elise Robbie is a dead ringer for a young
and...I ain't mad! Another show that I thought was going to do well but has already gotten the AX was
. I blame this in part to being a poorly done mad men knock off, as well as not great writing...to bad b/c it could've been great. Really, I think it was the curse of
that killed the show. Playboy club will soon to be joined by, Free Agents, How to be a gentleman, hopefully Whitney and Unforgettable. Also, even though I'm a fan of her,
was lame and looked as though it was filmed on a $4 budget.
