90210 and Melrose Place: In a word, meh

So, I watched 90210 and Melrose Place last night, and I was underwhelmed.

I don’t expect a lot from 90210, so it was fun but not as fun as some of last season’s episodes. The Annie story seemed disjointed and bizarre, and very little else caught my attention.

Melrose Place was also somewhat disjointed. Beginning a series with so many flashbacks seems like a mistake to me. The episode jumped around so much that I didn’t care enough to pay any attention. I quit watching before it even ended.

How about you? Did you watch? Did you enjoy either show?

It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year

The new fall TV season is a time of hope and excitement. We’ve seen the ads and the previews of the new shows and the season premieres of our returning favorites, and we expect them all to be good. We haven’t yet been disappointed by any that fail to live up to their  hype.

This week, the CW will let us know what or who drunk Annie hit on 90210, how Sidney can be back on the new Melrose Place (didn’t she die? will she have pulled the same fake death trick as her older sister Kimberly?), if the TV world can handle yet another vampire adaptation, and, yes, what the eff Sam and Dean will do to stop Lucifer.

And Fox will show us whether the second episode of Glee can bring the joy that the pilot brought us back in May.

The rest of the premieres are spread over the course of the month. The non-CW shows I’m looking forward to are How I Met Your Mother, Community, and Flash Forward. And, God help me, the previews for Cougar Town have made it look engaging and funny. Even with that awful, sexist title.

Zap2it has a nice calendar listing all of the season premieres, in case you don’t know when your faves are coming on. Which shows do you think will make the grade? Which won’t? Can we start a pool for which show will be cancelled first?
