Thoughts – Fall 2009

October 6, 2009

Seeing as though V doesn’t debut until sometime in November I’m declaring the new Fall TV season officially closed. Just like I did with Mid-Season 2009 I thought I’d quickly look at how the new shows stacked up:

SHOWS THAT SHOULD JOIN TOGETHER TO BUILD A TIME MACHINE AND TRAVEL BACK TO THE 90’S SO THEY CAN BE CANCELLED IN THE RIGHT DECADE:

Accidentally On Purpose

Brothers

Hank

SHOWS THAT I’VE QUITE IRONICALLY ALREADY FORGOTTEN ABOUT:

The Forgotten

SHOW MOST LIKE ‘LIFE’ – AS IN ‘LIFE IS JUST ANOTHER COP SHOW, BUT IT’S SURPRISINGLY GOOD’:

The Good WifeIS JUST ANOTHER LAWYER SHOW, BUT IT’S SURPRISINGLY GOOD

SHOWS I DON’T LIKE QUITE AS MUCH AS I FEEL I SHOULD:

Community

SHOWS THAT I’M EMBARRASSED TO SAY I LIKE MORE THAN ‘COMMUNITY’:

Cougar Town

The Vampire Diaries

SHOWS STARRING PATRICIA HEATON THAT DON’T SUCK:

The Middle

SHOWS THAT MANAGE TO BOTH SUCK AND BLOW:

Eastwick

The Beautiful Life: TBL

Melrose Place

SHOWS THAT ALLOW ME TO TYPE THE WORDS ‘STARRING CHRIS O’DONNELL AND LL COOL J’:

NCIS: Los Angeles

CLICHED MEDICAL DRAMAS THAT MAKE ME WANT TO RAGE:

Mercy

CLICHED MEDICAL DRAMAS THAT MAKE ME WANT TO FALL ASLEEP:

Three Rivers

CLICHED MEDICAL DRAMAS THAT MAKE ME WANT TO WATCH THE NEXT EPISODE DESPITE MYSELF:

Trauma

SHOWS I WAS NEVER GOING TO LIKE AND WAS KIDDING MYSELF FOR EVEN TRYING TO:

The Jay Leno Show

The Cleveland Show

SHOWS THAT WERE JUST AS GOOD AS THEIR PILOT THAT AIRED DURING MID-SEASON SUGGESTED THEY WOULD BE:

Glee

SHOWS THAT CAN BE DECLARED THE NEXT ‘HEROES’ – BY WHICH I MEAN THE NEXT ‘OVER-HYPERED SCI-FI SHOW THAT WILL COAST ALONG ON CLEVER CLIFFHANGERS BEFORE DESCENDING INTO BLITHERING NONSENSE’:

FlashForward

SHOWS THAT ARE THE BEST NEW SHOW OF THIS FALL TV SEASON:

Modern Family

    I was going to say I disagreed with your opinions of Community, but now I think about it I really just like the main character and I definitely like cougar town better (despite the embarrassment this causes…)

      I know. Every fiber in my body tells me that I should hate anything associated with Courtney Cox but then I find myself laughing and I have to stab myself. Community just lacks that spark, it has all the ingredients to be a great show except for that one key thing: laughs.
