Fall TV (so far)

Now that we are a couple of weeks into the new fall tv programming I thought I would share some my list of shows I'm watching and those that have fallen off the list.

Continuing Favorites (shows I love (or really like) that are back)

Desperate Housewives - One episode in and I feel like this this season is off to a great start.  Vanessa Williams is going to be a fun addition to the case.  And though I am sad to see Orson leave Bree, it seems like Bree will be going a little out of her regular zone this season.  I'm looking forward to a new episode tonight.

30 Rock - What can I say? 30 Rock is awesome.  You should be watching if you aren't.

How I Met Your Mother - My DVR decided not to tape the Monday of the season premiere.  I haven't caught up on it yet, but I did see the second episode and it was full of Barney fun. I think I saw that CBS now has full episodes online (finally!)... so hopefully I can catch the first ep of the season.

Glee - If you follow me on Twitter then you know that I mildly like Glee (ok I'm a bit obsessed and talk about it all the time).  The writing on the show lacks a bit, but overall I love it.  Each episode is fun and I love listening to the music while I'm at work.  My current favorite moment is from S2 E1 when Quinn and Santana are fighting and as the camera circles it stops at Brittany and she says, in a very deadpan way, "Stop the violence".  Every time I think about it I laugh.

Modern Family - It won the Emmy for best comedy this year and it was completely deserved.  This show makes my cry from laughter.  I'm sooo glad it's back.

The Office - I'm starting to waiver on this show (words I thought  I would never type).  I actually hoped this season would be the last because of Steve Carell's departure.  Last season the show was as good as it had been, but I love these characters so I'm staying with them.  So far I have enjoyed this season.

Cougartown - I think this is a good consistent show.  And they have already brought me a new "drinking" game... Movie Title mashup

It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia - I heart this show.  The first three episodes have been solid.  I can't get over Dee dancing with the air thinging... It. Cracks. Me. Up.

Chuck - Ok, I haven't watched any of this season yet. I had the same DVR problem as HIMYM and it was a blank recording for the season premiere.  I just need to get to NBC. com and watch it so I can see the second one that is on my DVR.

The Vampire Diaries - Since I don't have HBO I get my normal TV vamp fix from this show.  The first couple of episodes this season have been great.  I'm loving vamp Caroline.

Parenthood - Great cast and writing. They have some fun new plots this season.  Welcome back Bravermans!

The Big Bang Theory - Robot Sheldon was fantastic!  This show consistently makes me laugh! No wonder I bought 3 TBBT t-shirts at Comic Con.

New & New/Old Shows (shows that are new or just new to me)

The Middle - I had seen a few episodes of this show last season, but for some reason I didn't stick with it.  This is now becoming a favorite! *whispers* favorite

Community - I tried to watch this show when it started last season and just didn't get into it.  A lot people love it and I don't think it's bad... I just don't know if it's for me.  I started again this season and still am not really into it.

Raising Hope - I literally just watched the first two episodes and I'm in. Great cast and great writing.

Running Wilde - I have had a mad girl crush on Keri Russell since her MMC days.  That means that yes, I was one of the few Felicity watchers.  I also love Will Arnett so I want this to be a good show.  As I type I'm watching episode 2 and it's not getting me yet.  I'll give it a few more weeks.

Nikita - I have only seen episode one and have the rest on the DVR.  The first episode intrigued me so I plan on catching up... so we'll see.

No Ordinary Family - I just watched the pilot today and I really liked it.  I'm looking forward to the next episode.

Goodbye (shows that have been removed from the DVR)

Lone Star - I actually like the first episode, but once it got cancelled I took it off the DVR.  I thought "what's the point"?  I guess my thoughts on the show don't really matter since it's gone anyway.

My Generation - I didn't watch it, but deleted the 2 episodes that were taped after I read that it was taken off the schedule.

Hellcats - I tried to watch the first episode.  I stopped a bit of the ways through it. It seemed to forced for me.

Better with You - I love sitcoms and I wanted to like this, but it wasn't for me.  Knowing me I'll catch the reruns.

Outsourced - I work with call centers so I thought it might have a more personal touch, but it didn't hook me.

Life Unexpected - This show is still on the DVR, but it's almost off.  I really want to like this show, but the main characters just make themselves unlikable.  I really didn't enjoy the first episode... mainly because it was so predictable.  I guess it was really just setting up the new story lines.   The second episode was better and I'm hoping it keeps getting better.  I think my main problem is that Ryan is the only character I really like, but who doesn't love Jack McPhee?

So that's where I'm at with the fall season.  What do you agree or disagree with? Am I missing a show you think I should be watching?
