So, we are well into the fall season now, and coming up on November sweeps (do they still even do that?).

So, what are you loving so far this season, what is falling below your expectations, and what have you given up entirely, if anything?

Well, you all know that I watch WAYYYYY too much TV, lmao.  Here is my run down so far:

Loving: SYTYCD, naturally.  Always love that show.  And I am really enjoying House and Lie To Me on Mondays.  Also, we are cracking up at that new show, Modern Family, and of course are enjoying the Office.  And I am really enjoying CSI:NY this season too! (the LV CSI is better this season, but I find it odd that Sara is all of a sudden back-not that I don't like it, but it is strange)  And Medium-I love that show-I am so glad it found a new home on CBS!!!

Eh: Well, Heroes is entertaining, and better than last season, but I am still a bit bored with it.  They haven't been able to re-capture the season one feel of the show, IMO.  Desperate Housewives is also ok, but running its course for me.  I still love Greys and PP, but the merger on Greys is getting old to me-anyone else feel that way?

Gave up: Well, I tried The Vampire Diaries, and it is ok, but too teen, and I don't have time.  I am also axing Gossip Girl, and probably 90210 as well.  I need more time in my life, and these shows just aren't cutting it.  I also stopped recording Oprah everyday.

I freaking adore Glee. It's my favorite show right now. I'm also liking Vampire Diaries and Modern Family a whole lot.

I'm not enjoying Melrose Place quite as much as I thought I would, but I don't think it's complete crap.

It's not a new show, but I'm (for the most part) totally bored during most of DWTS... besides a few people (like Kelly Osbourne and Iron Chef dude.)

OMG-I can't believe I left off Glee!!!  It is definitely my fave new show.

VD was doing ok by me, but I knew I needed to make some cuts, and of the shows I have been watching, i felt that was one I could give up.

I tried Melrose, but it was just eh.  I couldn't get into it.  The hooker doctor gal has a SMOKIN' hot body though.

I've axed a lot of shows. I'm loving (LOVING) Fringe. I still love Medium and Law and Order. I am also LOVING House. I think it's great this season so far.

ITA about Heroes. The first season sucked me in! I loved it. It's just meh this season. I don't know, I'm still watching it but it's not as entertaining. I still love The office and Grey's.

Let's see...I've totally axed reality TV which is HUGE - HUGE!!! I cut out 90210 a while ago. Didn't even start Melrose. I was just watching way too much TV.

I read that Chuck is coming back next year and Lost will too - can't wait for both of those.

Oh - not on network TV - I adore Psych and Monk. It's Monk's last season and I'm really enjoying it. Psych makes me laugh a ton and Doug loves it too so we have a fun show to watch together.

I have a line-up that I watch now. I have added a few new and some new ones I tried and did not really care for or not worth adding.


How I Met Your Mother
Accidently on Purpose - I love this one
Big Bang Theory


Witches of Eastwick - Like
Glee

I tried MiddleRoad and the Modern Family and cannot get into them


Greys and PP - I agree on the merg issue from last episode, but I do not think it will be that much as it goes on. I am not sure I like the new characters they are trying to add. Is Izzy leaving ?

I think that is it.

ok, so I read online she is leaving for about a month to accommodate her filming something else. I wonder how they will bring her back. I honestly think this will be her last season on here.

Okay, so I don't even know how current this show is because I watch it on Netflix but I am enjoying the show Leverage as well.

Random, semi-related question.

Anyone else want to fess up to watching Tool Academy?

That doucebag infested hour is my largest guilty pleasure.

Stephen watches it and finds it funny.  I don't know a thing about it.


CSI Miami, Glee, NCIS, 90210, Top Chef, The Amazing Race.   I watch the whole show.

American's Next Top Model, Survivor, Project Runway.  I usually fast forward to the good parts.

Greys is a hit or miss.

You guys got me intrigued about Glee.  I missed the first couple of episodes, but I'm totally hooked now.  I super love Jane Lynch (Sue Sylvester).

I'm actually really enjoying 90210 this season, much more than last season.

Melrose, I'm hanging in there but not finding it very entertaining.  ITTTTA about the hooker intern's body - smokin'!

Flash Forward, but not totally into it yet.  Joseph Fiennes is a hottie and I wish he had his normal British accent on the show!

I just started watching SYTYCD at the end of last season and I love it.

Let' see I'm watching

901210(I actually like it)

Melrose place(i'm a few episodes behind though, and not liking it too much, it might be dropped from my list soon)

Flash Forward.  This is ok.  The first episode was really good, but the others haven't been as good.  I'm going to stick with it for now.

Heros.  Kind of dumb and boring to me again this year.  I hope it gets better.

I think that's it.  I'm not really liking much of anything right now. 

We'll watch Lost and 24 when those start too, but I don't think they come on until January?

Oh and I tried watching Glee, but didn't like it at all!

You know, I actually agree that 90210 is better than it was last season (though I still want more of the old folks-but I guess that is not what keeps the teens hooked. Like what is up with Kelly and principal Harry? They have a major flirt thing going on-and it isn't like the original where brandon and brenda's mom and dad were uglier, lol). I *might* stick with it for a while yet, but I just feel like I have to cut some things, and that stuff is more likely to go for me than some of the other shows I watch, like House or CSI or whatever.

Did I mention I might give up on Ghost Whisperer? It is getting a bit dull to me-and I have not gotten over the whole thing with Jim/Sam-I thought that was dumb.

When does Witches of Eastwick come on?

I accidentally came across it a couple weeks ago and really enjoyed it but I couldn't find it after that.
