The Fall Season So Far

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed or email. Thanks for visiting!

So far, I think the new fall TV season has gotten off to a good start. There have been some misses (Accidentally on Purpose, to name one really big one), but I’ve been impressed with a few of the new and returning shows.

The Vampire Diaries is fun, though it is a DVR show. Flash Forward is awesome, interesting, and thought-provoking. And Glee. Wonderful, fun Glee. It should go without saying that I am completely and hopelessly in love with this season of Supernatural, but I’m saying it anyway.

I’m embarassed to admit it, but Cougar Town is actually pretty funny. I still think the word “cougar” is one of the most offensive current terms to refer to a woman, but Courtney Cox is very likeable and the show itself isn’t offensive.

The jury is still out on Dollhouse. It is improving, but I’m not sure the underlying premise is that strong. Case of the week doesn’t require glorified whores who can ‘t remember they are whores.

The CW made a good decision to cancel The Beautiful Life, but the back 9 order for Melrose Place? Really?

My Mondays and Thursdays are manageable. Tuesday is a nightmare. And Wednesday offers nothing at 8, but a glut of shows in the 9:00 hour. (Okay, maybe not a glut, but the only things worth watching mid-week are all on opposite each other.)

How about you. How is your fall shaping up so far?
