MY IPOD HAS BEEN DELIVERED!!! YaY!!!! you don't know how freaking tempting it is to go home early to play with it.

in fandom-y news, i have been fairly unimpressed with new tv so far, which is a weird feeling for me since i do love me some television. i've given up on Grey's Anatomy because of the whole George/Izzie storyline. i just can't stomach it and i don't like enough of the other characters(*ahem* Meredith, McDreamy, Burke, Calli) to sit through 42 minutes of gritting my teeth. Denny >>>> George. i'm going to pretend like the show ended after Meredith's little brush with death/Denny/Dylan. *nod*

i did give Reaper a try and really liked it. the commercials made it look cheesy and it's not. it's sarcastic and kind of hilarious. i even found myself liking Bret Harrison, which hasn't happened in the guest roles i've seen him in. so i suppose it's been put on the schedule.

Moonlight was the epitome of cheesy and only made worse by use of My Immortal. i will keep watching because i miss seeing Jason Dohring (even though i think his acting was a bit OTT for the pilot) and vampires on my tv. i'm not sure how long i'll keep up with it if it continues to be sucktastic though.

this week? Supernatural!! i'm so excited to see the boys again. there's also FNL, but i've already seen the pilot and i'm worried about certain storylines. that's all i'll say...

suppose i should go do some work.

it's kind of awesome. *g*

[identity profile] egoboy1.livejournal.com 2007-10-01 07:18 pm (UTC)(link)
shows that have been or started awesome in the new season :

prison break
How I met Your mother
Weeds (cept for the olssen twin casting)
two and a half men
My name is earl
house is 50/50 cant really tell after 1 ep.

ugly betty, which i am ashamed to mention i actually watch, started very verrrrrrry weak.

[identity profile] tiggz.livejournal.com 2007-10-02 06:28 pm (UTC)(link)
i have to disagree with Prison Break(and really most of your list). it has been so incredibly weak. they really should've ended it last year. this Sona storyline needs to be over soon. i'm probably going to end up dumping it with GA.

HIMYM was probably the only premiere that was completely awesome.

i do not watch Weeds, Two and a Half Men, MNIE or House. i dropped House last season. it's the same episode over and over just change out the guest actors.

Ugly Betty is mindless tv for me. so i don't expect too much from it.

how do you not watch weeds ??? i mean, its so..you :s

Watched reaper this week...how come no one told me there was a kevin smith directed series :s , anyway...I kinda like it :)

I agree with you on Moonlight and the use of My Immortal. The song is cheesy enough, and then to put it on a vampire show? *sigh* By the way, what does OTT mean?

[identity profile] such-jaunt.livejournal.com 2007-10-01 10:22 pm (UTC)(link)
OTT = over the top

* sorry to butt in! :o

[identity profile] bratalie.livejournal.com 2007-10-01 11:15 pm (UTC)(link)
THank you! :)

[identity profile] tiggz.livejournal.com 2007-10-02 06:29 pm (UTC)(link)
the song didn't even fit. it was just thrown in there because of the title. so stupid.

as you've found out, OTT= over the top. not that Logan wasn't OTT, but this was just painful to watch in my opinion.

I am sooo with you on Grey's ...they Izzie is single handedly killing it. Once Denny died I died. sigh. I am not impressed with Private practice yet...but piz is cute.. I mean whatever his name is...hehehh
I liked Reaper also I have not been a Bret fan either...hated him in The Loop...well HATED the Loop anyway...I lOVED the best friend on Reaper he cracks me up.
Still have to watch Moonlight...I loathed the commericals and I am not prediciting any love for it, but seriously? My Immortal? gah. oh well.

The boys ARE back in town this week!! Sadly I have to work but oh well I will catch it after...I need a serious Dean fix....lets hope for some ghostly Daddy Winchester...:) but HIGHLY unlikely..
Let me know how the ipod goes...I have been contemplating a new one...

[identity profile] tiggz.livejournal.com 2007-10-02 06:33 pm (UTC)(link)
i'm not sold on Private Practice either, but i'll probably keep watching because i like so many of the actors involved. i am annoyed that they've recast Merrin Dungey from the pilot episode, but what can you do?

i never watched The Loop. mainly because of my extreme apathy for Bret Harrison.

yay boys!! i'm probably the most excited for that premiere. i've actually spoiled myself a little bit, unintentionally, by watching an interview Jensen did for the CW Source. so i won't say anything more...

the new ipod is pretty freaking cool. tonight the plan is to put some videos on it.

OMG! New iPod!!! YAY! Let me know how it works out.

I downloaded Moonlight but I am saving it for when I am DESPERATELY in need of something to watch. I also heard the "cheese-factor" reviews. LOLZ!

YAY! Supernatural Thursdays are back!!! \o/

the new ipod is awesome! i uploaded some music last night. tonight the plan is to put some videos on it.

i'm really hoping Moonlight improves, but i'm really not holding my breath. it was already completely recast and retooled. there's not much else they can do, really.

yay boys!!

[identity profile] such-jaunt.livejournal.com 2007-10-01 10:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Yay for your new shiny ipod :D
I hate Gizzie - i really hope they kill it or i shall stop watching too! (and bring back denny while they're at it too lol)
As usual your tv taste is awesome and basically i agree with you on eveything, cannot wait till thursday the wait is finally OVER :D

[identity profile] tiggz.livejournal.com 2007-10-02 06:36 pm (UTC)(link)
yay! (you wouldn't want to make me a new ipod icon, wouldja? *g*)

if they broght Denny back, i'd be back in a heartbeat. Denny made me fall for JDM hook, line and sinker.

I don't mind George/Izzie but I miss Addison so much that I may give up on GA too. I couldn't force myself to watch Moonlight, but is Jason a regular? I miss my VM and want to know where they have scattered to.

[identity profile] tiggz.livejournal.com 2007-10-02 06:37 pm (UTC)(link)
yeah, Addison's pretty much the only thing that kept me watching last season(and the Denny mentions/appearances).

i'm pretty sure Jason is a regular on Moonlight. he is playing a vampire if that sways you at all. ;)

Reaper was enjoyable enough. As heavy-handed as it was, I really did like the cheesy Dirt Devil vacuum cleaner.

Moonlight made me want to spork out my eyes. Myles gave a pretty good performance, but she was still a bit rough and didn't deliver some lines too fantastically. But I'll cut her some slack since I heard just about everyone but O'Loughlin was replaced kind of at the last minute. Dohring's character, Josef, reminded me of the character Methos from the Highlander series -- super old, but young-acting and wise-cracking. At least the camera work was pretty and reminded me of the Beauty and the Beast series Ron Koslow did years back.

But Supernatural is also my big thing this week. My boys are back!

[identity profile] tiggz.livejournal.com 2007-10-02 06:40 pm (UTC)(link)
the dirt devil vacuum was hilarious. especially when the demon lady at the DMV snarked about it.

i didn't think Sophia was nearly as good in Moonlight as she was in Dr Who. though i did keep trying to hear her brit accent come out. the camera work reminded me of Angel. the superfast shots on LA, Mick standing on the roof with his billowy coat of pain. *shakes head*

yay boys!!

Supernatural!! i'm so excited to see the boys again. there's also FNL, but i've already seen the pilot and i'm worried about certain storylines. that's all i'll say...


Don't. The FNL spoilers have been horrific, and... I can't even! If they fuck up that fabulous show, it's the tv crime of the decade, that and a few thing FOX has done.

[identity profile] tiggz.livejournal.com 2007-10-02 06:41 pm (UTC)(link)
i haven't read spoilers. just saw the leaked pilot on yahoo!tv. i will be very upset if the go the soap route and ruin the show.

[identity profile] random-serious.livejournal.com 2007-10-02 06:49 pm (UTC)(link)
Me too. (Though I haven't seen the pilot.)
