Television (2009/10 Season)

Postby dxmnkd316 » Sun 9/27/09 6:55 pm

So I'm guessing the other thread fell into disrepair and Jup deleted it which is fine.

Did anyone watch the Cleveland Show tonight? I'll be shocked if this show gets beyond it's original purchase. It's worse than Family Guy, which used to be funny. Seth McFarlane is one of the most overrated writers on earth.

Also, Community, the new show on NBC is pretty good. Joel McHale is absolutely hilarious. Plus it doesn't hurt to have CHevy Chase.

That Family Guy episode was awful. They had a whole summer to think up new material and that's the best they can come up with!? With as little free time as I have to sit down and watch TV, I don't really follow a specific show week-by-week, but I have a feeling that won't be a problem this year...

Kent Hrbek has severed ties to the "Kent Hrbek Outdoors" show. Wall to Wall media bought the show two years ago. Herbie said it wasn't an amicable seperation.

I watched about 5 minutes of the Cleveland Show. What little I saw was awful enough for me to change the channel. I had to record Family Guy since I was getting the kid ready for bed, but from what I read here it's probably not worth my time to sit down and watch it.

Sad part is, as bad as the episode was, it was one of the funnier ones in a while. Which isn't saying much. I missed American Dad (the best of the three shows) because I couldn't take Seth McFarlane anymore.

I only saw the first few of Family Guy (recorded the rest) but I thought it was good. I made up my mind before not to watch Cleveland - it just looked bad.

I thought Modern Family was outstanding, although it might go the way of Arrested Development as it's probably not for the stupid masses.

FSN doesn't want to rush into anything. They have their HD switch over set for 2029.

I know this show isn't for everyone but Red Eye on fox news is one of the funniest shows on television.

What did any of you fellow sci-fi junkies think of V?

I was a huge fan of the original miniseries/show in the 80's. The new one tonight was ok. I think it will be hard pressed to be as good as the original but we'll see.

Although I've been watching almost every single show talked about so far, my vote for bets shows so far goes with The Big Bang Theory, Modern Family, and Community. It's good to see some decent comedies come back in the recent years. The medical dramas were getting really boring.

Couldn't agree more. It would be very easy for this show to become stale as the premise is the same each week, but the writing keeps it fresh.

30 Rock is the (intentionally) funniest show on TV right now, IMO

I watched that show for a while but ended up hating it. I don't remember why but I just didn't mesh with it I guess.

The writing on house is fantastic. Plus the character development is some of the best I've ever seen.

I am a big fan of House, Hugh Laurie is brilliant as that character. Towards the end of last season the whole hallucination thing bugged me then the season finale totally bowled me over...I didn't see the ending coming. So far this season is good, I love the writing....I wish my doctor could be that brutally honest!

Love Modern Family, am counting the days until Lost resumes, but my current favorite show? Shhhh, lean in so I can whisper....Sons of Anarchy. Arggg, I can't believe I admitted that I'm hooked on a show about a CA biker gang! I'm female, slightly mid-aged, normal in all relative aspects. I should be watching Desperate Housewives, The Good Wife, Ugly Betty, but noooooooo, give me biker gangs, father/son issues over power, cheap porn flick production as gang income. :lol:
