In which I regain my fannish status

selenayAll the US shows are premiering this week, which is yay-ful. There is also Merlin currently running and Spooks started this week.
Effectively I've gone from practically nothing airing that I actually watch to "too much TVs! oh noes!". Heh.
Last year I looked through the new shows and picked what I thought were going to be the year's winners, Flash Forward and V. Yes, laugh heartily now. Particularly at my thought that the weird thing about a high school glee club couldn't possibly succeed or be good.
I'm midway through S1 of Glee on DVD and have S2 set up to record on my DVR, so that I can start watching it as soon as my Glee marathon is over. I know when to admit that I'm wrong :-)
This year, The Event is the one that I've picked out to watch. The previews looked good and everyone loves a good conspiracy show. Right? It's even got some darned good actors in.
Of course, so did Flash Forward. And we all know how that ended (or didn't, that cliffhanger was evil). If The Event goes the same way then we'll declare me death on any new shows and I'll resolve not to try things until everyone is raving about them and they've been picked up for a second season, OK?
The House and NCIS premiers were both good, The Event and Glee premiers are on my DVR. Tonight there appears to be nothing (time for more Glee DVDs and possibly Spooks) and tomorrow there will be Bones and Grey's Anatomy which are both going to be DVR'd due to being out at knitting. I can see that my biggest problem this year may be keeping up! Friday is CSI:NY and Medium, which are both fairly mindless and perfect for that end of the week slump.
So, that's eight hours of programming. Well, six if you take out the adverts :-D Plus Holby City, Merlin, Spooks and Strictly Come Dancing. TV-addict? Me? Never!

I don't suppose you could find room in your soul to watch Spooks for me, and pass on the highlights until I've restored power?
I think I'd be pushing my luck if I asked Riv again as it makes her eyeballs bleed. :D

Date: 2010-09-24 12:03 am (UTC)I can absolve Riv of responsibility. YOU CAN BE MY DESIGNATED CRACK FIX! (though defining Spooks as 'crack' is incorrect, it's more like ciggies. I keep saying I'm going to stop, but the BBC commissions a new pack and no one's invented a patch or gum for Richard Armitage... *goes outside with her lighter* Bugger!) *hugs* THANK YOUUU! ^^
