Fall Line Up

Cale and I have a tendancy to be television junkies! We DVR everything and watch it after the kids go to bed. We used to not be able to watch shows together because I didnt like anything that was to intense or that might give me bad dreams. He didnt like only watching "girlie shows." So we started previewing things and we found a few shows that we liked. Most of them came on the USA cable network. We love shows like Monk, Psych, Covert Affairs, Burn Notice, and Royal Pains. Unfortunately, those shows are over for now. SO we have been previewing shows on the networks to see if there was anything decent to watch. Most of what we have seen in the past has been trash. That is why we like USA so much. They have good shows that do not focus on the bad. They are NOT perfect by any means, but they are better than most.
This fall I am looking forward to a few different shows that I previewed this past week.
Dancing With the Stars is one of them. I am not sure about Florence Henderson or David Hasselhoff this year. They seem kind of cheesy. Also, Bristol Palin?? She has obviously never had any kind of dance/performance experience. We will see how far she goes on the show. I dont know alot of the other performers. I am sure that Brandy will do well, and Jennifer Grey from Dirty Dancing looks like she might have some promise. Only time will tell!
After Dancing we always look forward to Castle. It is a police drama with enough comedy thrown in that it is not to horrible to watch. Rick Castle is actually pretty charming in the show and we all know that Beckett likes him and is only pretending to "put up" with him. The chemistry between those two characters is what keeps the show going. Hopefully they will keep them separated and the show will go on!

Mike and Molly turned out to be a cute little comedy! It looks really fun and of course I will support anything with Sookie in it! Sookie is a character from my all time favorite show Gilmore Girls. She has been on several shows since Gilmore Girls ended, but nothing has worked so far. This time she is actually the star of the show. We will see how this works!

We just finished watching Hawaii Five-O today from the DVR list. It was really good! A very fun show! Another cop show though!! My only problem with it is that it has that annoying brother from the Ocean's Eleven movie in it. He drove me crazy in those movies!! Fortunately, he is nothing like that in this show!

Blue Bloods looks like another good one! Even if it is ANOTHER cop show. Handsome Tom Selleck is in this show! It is about a three generation cop family. Very good! (So Far!)

I really got into a new show last year called The Good Wife. It is about a woman who stands by her man even after he is caught cheating on her. He is in a high profile postion. He goes to jail, and she goes to work as a lawyer. I like the characters and it has very little death in the show which is one of the reasons that I like it! This one is truly my show. Cale does not watch it with me.

Of course while I was looking for these pictures I forgot to add a few. The Office is always a favorite of ours. This season started off with a bang! Possibly one of the top ten funniest episodes of the entire series! LOVE THE OFFICE!
Another show that didnt air this week is called No Ordinary Family. It looks like a real life version of The Incredibles. I am anxious to see if it holds true to the PG rating and is family friendly. The kids loved that movie and they might enjoy seeing a real show if it is not to intense for them. They are just little guys! We are really excited for this show!
I told you that we watch way to much television! We really are busy and dont watch it every night. But when we are home we just hit the DVR button and off we go! How did we ever get along without a DVR? We are able to watch these shows so much faster because we can fast forward through all of the commercials! I know what you are thinking...go read a book! We do that too!
