I hate to say it...

I have decided to give up on a show.  I was going to say that it was my first show to give up on but I already dropped ANTM.  This one hurts though.   So without further ado and as much as I love Sarah Michelle Gellar, Ringer has been deleted from my Tivo schedule.  After 3 episodes I just realized that I did not care what happened to this character (Bridget/Siobhan whatever the hell her name was) and it was not pressing for me to watch the show as soon as it aired.  So I am freeing up some room on my Tivo and saying goodbye to Ringer.  Let me know if you think I am wrong to do this.

Oh and I am thinking that Whitney and 2 Broke Girls are not far behind....

Which New Shows Are You Watching....

I know that we are only halfway through the first week of new shows but I wanted to find out what people were watching and what has spiked interest among the old and the new shows so far this season.  Here is what I have watched and what I think (if you care)...

Monday Night:
How I Met Your Mother - Of course I watched both episodes and I am excited about the new season.  Robin's back in love with Barney, Barney has a thing for Nora, Marshall and Lily are finally expecting and Ted glimpses Victoria (remember the cupcake girl from Season 1 or 2).  I thought that the first two episodes were great and my husband is still walking around saying "Edward 40-hands".  Can't wait...
Two and a Half Men - I had to watch.  I have never watched before and I could not resist the hoopla.  Without knowing any of the back story I must say, it was not half bad.  I might watch again just to see how Ashton does.  It was funny and they handled the death of Charlie really well.
2 Broke Girls - Sort of cute.  I might check it out again.  2 girls working as waitresses both down on their luck.  Not sure if it will stay on the list or not.  There is something appealing about it. 
The Playboy Club - OK, I know that this has been panned by the critics and I watched thinking I would hate it.  Guess what, I didn't.  I actually really liked it.  Its a Soap Opera, no doubt but there is something fascinating about this lifestyle and time period and I really liked it.  Plus Eddie Cibrian is hot as shit.  Will watch again for sure. 

Tuesday Night:
Glee - I am really, really hoping to get back to the greatness of Season 1 this year.  The premiere was not as promising as I would have liked and there are too many other things to watch now if the Glee people don't get it together.  It was not bad.  I just got bored about halfway through and I do not like that feeling.  Of course I will continue to watch but I am hoping to get back to the beginning. 
Ringer - I watched the Pilot last week with Sarah Michelle Gellar and I liked it.  It was intriguing and confusing all at the same time.  I have not watched episode 2 yet but I think that the show will hold my attention.  I am hoping for that anyway. 
The New Girl - My favorite new show thus far.  How cute is Zooey Deschanel?  This show has the premise and promise to be great and judging by the pilot I am excited.  I know that there will be some casting changes but the show seems like something special. 

OK these are the ones I have watched.  Have I missed anything?  Oh and I did watch Up All Night last week but figured I would mention that one on Friday with my Wednesday and Friday posts.  What did you think?  Was I right about The Playboy Club or did you think it was cheesy?  God I love the new television season.  Wondering which show will be the first to get cancelled.

Ringer and SMG - What did you think?

So I watched Sarah Michelle Gellar last night in her new show Ringer and I will say right now...it had promise.  Now I am not saying it was perfect.  And by no means did the show have the pizazz of Buffy (oh and when did SMG get in a tussle and yell help ever).  But it was interesting and left me wanting to watch the next episode.  The whole twin thing was interesting (if not a little confusing) and there are enough pretty people on the show to make it a real CW hit.  So I will continue to watch and see what happens.  Did anyone else watch?  What did you think?

Oh and the boat scene was ridiculously fake but at least it did not last long.

Anyone going to check it out?

So tonight my first NEW show of the season begins.  Buffy...I mean Sarah Michelle Gellar stars in a new show on the CW called Ringer.  SMG plays twins (spoiled and rich I think) and the show is supposed to be full of suspense, melodrama and intrigue.  I am wondering if they can add a little action too, just to see the kick-ass Buffy chops again.  Anyway, I will let you know tomorrow what I think (if you care).  The show starts at 9:00.
