fall TV

I finally finished reading my EW Fall TV Preview issue so I figured it’s time to post my TV viewing schedule (like you were all waiting with anticipation, hehe)…

Monday
08:00: North Shore
What?! There’s nothing else to watch in the same time slot! But seriously, I’ll only be watching for Shannen Doherty’s upcoming appearances. After that, I’d be surprised if the show doesn’t get cancelled.

09:00: Everwood (premieres 9/13)
Squee! My favorite show. I’m so excited! Ephram returning from a summer in NY to a senior year with Amy, Bright facing his future after high school, Scott Wolf, the cloud of Madison and her baby tainting Andy and Ephram’s relationship… So. Much. Good. Stuff.

09:00: Las Vegas (premieres 9/13) – tape
I was going to skip this show this season mostly because last season I had the hardest time remembering to tape it and then subsequently forgot to watch the episodes I had recorded. But last Friday I went to the GAP and saw a huge Josh Duhamel poster in the storefront window and… *sigh* It can’t hurt to have another show to watch just for the eye candy.

10:00: LAX (premieres 9/13)
It’s Las Vegas in the airport! Plus, Blair Underwood. 😉

Tuesday
08:00: Gilmore Girls (premieres 9/21)
I finally saw a promo for GG tonight — Luke and Lorelai! Aww. I can’t wait to see their relationship develop this season.

09:00: One Tree Hill (premieres 9/21)
My guilty pleasure. And the cast is HOT. I mean, have you seen the new promo pictures?

Tuesday nights won’t be the same without 24. 🙁

Wednesday
08:00: Smallville (premieres 9/22)
The promise of Lois Lane and Jensen Ackles (I think he’s playing Lana’s new love interest Jason?) brings me back for another season.

08:00: Lost (tape – premieres 9/22)
It’s the JJ Abrams connection. I haven’t yet met a show of his I didn’t like.

09:00: The West Wing (premieres 10/20)
Going to try to follow the show again… although I say this every season and it never pans out. For some reason, I find it easier to watch TWW on DVD.

09:00: Kevin Hill (premieres 9/29) /The Mountain (premieres 9/22) – tape
I don’t think I’ll be able to see Oliver Hudson as anybody but squicky Eddie from Dawson’s Creek so I have a feeling I’ll be watching Taye Diggs tackle fatherhood.

10:00: CSI:NY (premieres 9/22)
Probably won’t watch this on a weekly basis. Just another fun show to keep me entertained from time to time.

Thursday
08:00: The O.C. (premieres 11/4)
Guh. What a long wait. Another month! I need my OC fix. I wish the DVDs came out sooner.

08:00: Joey – tape
I think this is the only sitcom on my entire list. Huh. I guess I’m much more of a dramatic person. *g*

09:00: CSI (premieres 9/23)
The CSI marathon on SpikeTV last week did a number on me. I’m already planning on getting the DVDs.

09:00: Life As We Know It (premieres 10/7)
Don’t know much about this show — just that it’s about teens from the boys’ point of view. Could be interesting.

Friday
I still don’t watch TV on Fridays. I can’t. And as much as I want to see Joan of Arcadia and Dr. Vegas (Rob Lowe!), I won’t. Maybe I’ll tape?

Saturday
08:00: The Apprentice
My Thursdays are overloaded so I’m planning on watching the Saturday reruns. Besides, extra boardroom footage!

Sunday
08:00: American Dreams (premieres 9/26)
LOVE this show. Very much a critics’ darling that doesn’t get the ratings I think it should. Touching storylines, stellar cast, well-developed characters… all set against the backdrop of the turbulent 60s.

09:00: Jack and Bobby
Caught the premiere tonight and enjoyed it! Though that’s not really a surprise considering I like Berlanti’s work (see Dawson’s Creek and Everwood). I think the premise has a lot of potential but the characters could use some work. As it is, I don’t like Grace, Courtney and even Bobby! The only ones I warmed up to were Jack and Marcus. I’m also not quite sure about the flashforward sequences… they could get tired fast. But since Alias doesn’t premiere til January, I’ll stick around.

Phew. I watch a lot of TV, don’t I? 😀

  1. Sadly, I think I watch just as much tv as you. I really should curb that I think, but there’s just so many good shows on. 🙂
