Brief TV Update

[anoel]

I've had a really crazy/busy week but I wanted to say something about TV because I had planned a post but took a 5 hour nap instead.

I LOVE TV. It completes me, it really does. Having so many of my shows premiering this week and seeing my Flist squee just reminded me of what TV adds to my life and how happy and gleeful it makes me. Plus I got to watch some of it with lianri which was a lot of fun. I'm still behind on seeing some premieres/second episodes but I will get to that by tomorrow hopefully. For now, short non-spoilery reactions.

How I Met Your Mother: Love it! Hilarious and hot and cute and sweet. Just the way I like it.
Chuck: I enjoyed it! Very entertaining and a great concept. Chuck is so cute.
Heroes: LOVE it! Mr. Bennett and Claire! *hearts them* Matt and Mohinder and Molly! My super cute Hiro is back :D Somehow this show turned into a character love show for me. And it was funny!
House: OMG LOVE! I still have not recovered. This is one of THE episodes that shows why I watch the show along with Act Your Age, All In, House vs. God and Safe. Lots of House hilarity, House/Wilson SQUEE and House/Cuddy love. The OT3 rules all.
Reaper: I enjoyed it! Much funnier than I thought and pretty entertaining concept.
Pushing Daises: Not on yet but I rewatched half the pre-air version and LOVED it once again. The pretty and the concept and the narrator and the cute main character and oh, everything have won me over.
Private Practice: Meh. I love LA and I love Addison but that's about it. The characters need to get better but I'll give it a few episodes.
Gossip Girl (pilot): I like the idea of it but right now it's not clicking for me. NYC is awesome and I hear the books are good so I'm giving it more time.
Dirty Sexy Money: LOVE it! Second favorite pilot of the season and I think it's awesome (the name IS the best). The characters are fun and interesting, the plot is entertaining, it's funny and it reminds me of Arrested Development which I miss a lot so this helps. Highly recommended.
Ugly Betty: Love it! It totally made me cry yet was so funny. Also, I LOVE Justin times infinity. He and Hiro are having an adorable contest and Justin is winning at the moment.
The Office: LOVED IT! My show is back and once again it's the best and makes me the happiest. I laughed throughout the entire thing and loved all my characters SO MUCH. How is this show so good? My glee is indescribably high.
Grey's Anatomy: I liked it. It's gotten better but a few of last season's problems and one new one is still dragging the show down. But I LOVED Cristina who is awesome and rules all so I'll keep watching.
Stargate Atlantis: I liked it! My Rodney love is back in full force and McShep is still super cute and are so boyfriends. Yay!

May TV never leave me again.

HIMYM: I don't think it's back in the groove yet, but there were a couple of moments that I loved - Ted and Barney both leaving off at legen and then finishing off a little later with dary, and Robin saying you were bigger [hee], and a handful of dorky!Marshall moments that had me clapping with glee. Man I love this show.

Heroes: I watch this show for the characters, truly. :P I can squee over nearly all of them individually. The Bennets [or Butlers] and Molly/Mohinder/Matt being all homemaker-y and Hiro meeting a Jack-Sparrow equivalent - loved it. :D

Ugly Betty: I don't want this show too much but Justin is awesome. I have enormous amounts of love for him. So adorkable.

The Office: JASDKJASAS THIS SHOW! I can't believe I managed to go four months without a new episode - God. Everyone from Jim/Pam to Dwight/Angela to Toby to Michael, just - wow. How can any show be this amazing? It's criminal.
Almost.

TV will leave us again next May, dammit. But at least we have around eight months with them. ♥

Well it wasn't as smart as usual but very funny and I do like the continuity. Yes about legendary and the bigger and the dorky! I will talk more about all the stuff I loved later.

Yeah, it's turned into a character show for me as much as I love the plot. Yay Justin! I seriously adore him to pieces. And I totally agree about The Office. I just need that show.

It's so sad :( But I'll pretend like that it's not soon. Reruns are the worst.

I loved Dirty, Sexy Money! I thought it was great and it turned out better than I expected.

I know! I love it so much. I actually had the urge to watch it three times which almost never happens. I adore it and find it very funny at the moment.

I also like a good murder mystery and I hope this plays out as one.

I can't wait to see what happens!

I really thought "I'm comfortable with morally grey" (or something to that effect) was my favorite Bennett quote, but now can't decide between that and "I AM SICK OF EATING YOUR CRAP."

I think morally grey is still my favorite just because it's so Mr. Bennett. But that one is awesome too!

House was awesome. I know we already talked about this at my journal but all the House/Wilson and House/Cuddy had me spinning. I loved that they were front and centre (S3 had them in the background too often).

SO GOOD! I still can't believe we got all that. I definitely agree about them being in the foreground, that's one of the really things I found so refreshing. It's the ducklings that should be in the background (or not at all).
