First up, the new shows&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>SPOILERS ARE AHEAD&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><b>Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip<\/b><br \/>\nI wasn&#8217;t that impressed with the premiere. Or even the second episode. The show&#8217;s a little too&#8230; preachy, maybe? I mean, I liked it but I kinda felt talked at, if that makes any sense. I&#8217;m also not crazy about Amanda Peet as Jordan. She comes across as too wide-eyed and innocent for me. And she only has 1 expression! The dialogue is sharp, though, and I absolutely adore the relationship between Matt and Danny (yay Matthew Perry and Bradley Whitford!). I&#8217;ll keep watching for them alone. I just wish the show didn&#8217;t air at 10pm. That&#8217;s my bedtime, hehe. \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n<p><b>Six Degrees<\/b><br \/>\nThis show had to be great for me to make it appointment TV since Thursday night is entirely too crowded as it is (SMVL, SN, Grey&#8217;s, OC). And it just didn&#8217;t quite get there. I liked the characters but not enough to *care.* Sure, Whitney&#8217;s fiance is appalling, Damian&#8217;s situation frustrating and Laura&#8217;s story tragic but&#8230; that&#8217;s it. Nothing&#8217;s drawing me back for another episode. Mostly because they&#8217;re all such cliched storylines&#8230; cheating fiance, good guy with gambling debt, etc. I did enjoy the newly formed friendship between Damian and Carlos, though. That&#8217;s a plus. I&#8217;ll stick around for another episode.<\/p>\n<p><b>Heroes<\/b><br \/>\nThis is the best of the new shows I&#8217;ve seen so far. Reminds me of X-Men, which is probably why I like it so much. \ud83d\ude00 My favorites so far are Hiro (HEE!), Claire (her Dad is creeeepy), and Nathan (yes, even though he&#8217;s an a**hole). I wanted to like Niki but her bitchy attitude is such a turn-off. WHAT IS HER DEAL? I&#8217;m also on the fence about Pete. The mystery about his power is intriguing but I just don&#8217;t think Milo Ventimiglia&#8217;s a good actor. :\/ Anyway, this show definitely has a place on my TV schedule. Greg Grunberg next week, yay!<\/p>\n<p><b>Ugly Betty<\/b><br \/>\nI. LOVED. THIS. SHOW. Awww. \ud83d\ude00 (I was secretly hoping it would be awful so I&#8217;d have one less show to watch on Thursdays&#8230; no such luck). America Ferrera rocks. It was predictable but it was also over the top and campy and it worked! I&#8217;m hooked!<\/p>\n<p>So out of the 4 shows above, I&#8217;ll probably be tuning in for 3 of them regularly. Oh boy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m finally posting about the new TV season!!!
