What Am I Going To Watch?

Hmmm... most of the premieres have happened and I suppose it's time to program the faux TiVo. Looking at the schedule of new and old shows and what ranks where, here's what I have thus far:

Monday
Honestly, nothing on Monday has my loyalty enough to TiVo. I'll skim through some stuff but nothing is special to me.

Tuesday
Damn, Tuesday looks like a busy night and Sex and the City reruns on TBS may need to be deleted (I've seen all the episodes, anyway). So, hmm..

"My Name is Earl": Strong season premiere which amused me enough to watch again and hope it holds up. Yeah, I'll TiVo.

"The Amazing Race": Yep, this old stand-by will remain... until such time as they cast another Jonathan then I might change my mind. But, at this point, it wins.

If either Earl or TAR look to not be working out Supernatural is a stand-by. I enjoyed the season premiere but it was a bit derivative. Plus, WB is re-running the eps on Easy View Sunday, so, in that case it may be TiVOed on Sunday. (Wish all networks would double run. Hear that "Everyone Hates Chris"/UPN?)

Nip/Tuck As beyond screwed-up as always. Of course I have to watch.

Wednesday

Lost will remain on TiVO. Sure, I bitch and gripe. It's not a BtVS or X-Files obsession, but I enjoy it well enough.

Invasion I'll probably watch but not TiVO. I was sufficiently interested to give the series a chance but not so sucked in that it's must-see-tv.

Thursday

Survivor: Guatamala It's looked like a BITCH this season with the heat and the puking and... I think I'm gonna have to watch how this trainwreck ends. Won't TiVo it, but will watch while TiVO-ing...

Smallville Damn you, JM. You're making me watch this show just to see you. I figure TiVO is the least painful way to watch.

I did sample Everyone Hates Chris on UPN. And it is amusing, but I can live with not watching.

Friday
I've been watching Battlestar Gallactica but it just went on re-runs until January. I may (belatedly) give Threshold a shot. I haven't watched thus far but I have the BSG slot to fill.

Saturday
Still a wasteland... and usually when I watch the stuff I've TiVoed that I haven't actually gotten around to watching.

Sunday
Same as Saturday. ALthough I noticed that the WB is doing an "Easy View" Sunday re-run of Supernatural in the afternoon, so I may TiVo it then and watch at my convenience.

Shows I've sampled but went "eh" and didn't make the watch or TiVo list -- "Bones", "How I Met Your Mother", and "Kitchen Confidential" (and this summer's 5 ep sampling of "Veronica Mars") Sorry, Whedonverse alums, JM is the only alum who can make me watch a show where I'm bored and disinterested (if not out and out irritated)... and even JM is treading on thin ice in this regard.
