New TV Season

The new TV season is upon us ,and none too soon. Couple of random tv-related thoughts.

While Entourage is always as entertaining as hell, nothing has really happened this season. It's getting stale. And E's girlfriend (or ex, as the case appears to be) has GOT to be the most annoying character ever.

Trueblood is the best (relatively) new show on TV. It's approaching Soprano's level good. Only thing: I am glad that freak Miriam is gone. That was getting a bit old.

The Office: Still the funniest show ever. It's the new Seinfeld.

Community: This one has promise -- what's not to like about Chevy chase, but was that pilot episode not a bit disappointing? Any thoughts/predictions on this one?

Hung: Never took off and won't live to see another season.

Fringe: I like it alright, but might need to give it up unless there's some sort of interesting breakthrough.

Survivor: Watched religiously for years, then gave it up but did watch the first episode of the new season. Watch out for this villain dude. He has potential.

The New Melrose Place: Worst show in the history of television. But Heather Locklear is coming aboard so big ups for that.

Did I cover all my bases here? Anything else egregiously missing?

I still like Mad Men...started a little slow, but the latest episode was superb...thought the season opener of The Office was good too. Also watched Community...we'll see on that one, it was cute but knows it's cute, know what I mean?

Californication and Dexter start this week. Dexter - best show on tv. Mad Men has been fantastic so far. Flash forwrd looks like its worth a few episodes

If you're not watching Glee, you should be. Also:

- Curb Your Enthusiasm
- Bored to Death
- House
- It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia
- Top Chef
- So You Think You Can Dance
- The Biggest Loser

And Neil is right. Californication and Mad Men are two of my faves. And the Office, obvs. Community has definite promise.
