TV tonight - new season for a couple shows

[okarol]

Two shows on Showtime:
Tonight Dexter returns! He's a police forensic blood specialist/serial killer - love that show!
Also tonight Californication is beginning a new season. Famed novelist & NYC transplant "Hank" relocates to LA, played by David Duchovny.

Two HBO shows started a couple weeks ago:
I have quickly gotten hooked on True Blood on HBO - it's very intense and the characters are really unique!
Entourage, also on HBO, has been really good too.

Desperate Housewives returns tonight also!

What did I do before Tivo??

oooh Californication back... excellent that used to get me going at dialysis when the BP was a little low... though the old 70+ year olds around me may have had trouble if they happened to glance at my laptop!!!!! lol

I'm waiting for Pushing Daisies & Chuck to return. Heroes back last week was pretty good... and there's a few other shows too that it's good to have back. WOO HOO!

Little Britain USA premiered also. Very funny.

Little Britain USA premiered also. Very funny.

Please tell me that was the US premier of the UK Little Britain and not some lame ass attempted remake? (and how could they anyway)

COMPUTER SAYS NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't know about Little Britan, but the US version of The Office is wonderful!  I've watched the UK version and it is definitely funny, but so hard for me to understand the accent.  I see that Little Britan is available on my Netflix.  I'll start watching it.  I love comedies!

[mikey07840]

It's a new series with the original cast. (Sunday nights at 10:30 p.m. on HBO)

Computer says no.

November comes the sci fi event of the year!  http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0844653/

This was the best book series I ever read! It should make an amazing series.  I cannot wait!

[RichardMEL]

Hey I watched the Little Britain US show.. pretty funny... now I understand.. I had no idea they did a series of those guys in the US.. too funny...

[okarol]

Last night I watched all the shows I had tivo'd: Gossip Girl, Dirty Sexy Money, True Blood, Dexter, Californication, Entourage and Desperate Housewives.

wow thats alot I barely got through the football game...Boxman

[okarol]

Oh! And I watched the Red Sox - Angels game too! 

Yeah, it was marathon tv watching - I should have spread it out but I will be gone Thurs. to Mon. in Vegas.

Californication is really full on at times but a fun show.. I really enjoy it...

And Little Brittan USA has gone further than the others in what they do IMHO.. Wonder if that's due to the HBO side of things. fun stuff.

Am enjoying new Family Guy (although I am totally over "The Bird is the Word!" now!) and even the Simpsons isn't too bad for Season 20.

Pushing Daisies was OK for a return episode..

Terminator looks really good with where it is going and it totally sucks that it looks like Fox will cancel it. Very unhappy if that happens!

Heroes rocks on and Chuck is it's usual fun popcorn stuff...

I'm enjoying the new seasons of stuff and it soooo keeps me diverted at dialysis!

I watched the first episode of "Worst Week", a new sitcom on CBS.  I thought it was the worst show I have ever seen, I found all their attempts at humor to be juvenile and utterly ridiculous, not even slightly funny.  My 18-year-old son who normally enjoys that type of comedy, also found it to be very bad.  If you have any functioning brain cells - I believe you will not enjoy this show.

[mikey07840]

I just saw Pushing Daisies for the first time. What a hoot!

[dkerr]

I watched the first ten minutes of the ex-list last week and turned it off.  I found it too over the edge for my taste.

I'm with you, Karol. I am hooked on the show and love the characters. The opening credits are bizarre and cool - very creative and spooky!

yeah you know I saw this and sat through the entire show and it didn't really thrill me. I might watch next week's just to give it a chance but I wasn't too inspired.. I mean the woman went through 2 or 3 men in the space of one episode basically because some fortune teller told her sehe'd meet her future husband or something... yeah, they tried to put humour into it and characters you could go places with... but something that bugs me about shows like this.. all the main casts are all HOTTIES! I mean come *on*... like the main chick could walk into a bar and instantly be mobbed... when will they have a show that show people actually STRUGGLING to get a date, having to deal with rejection after rejection (OK, I admit that would not make fun TV.. but it's REAL - for some of us anyway ) ....

in summary OK for a bit of eye candy during dialysis.. a bit of a laugh but if I wasn't already confined to a chair with nothing to do I wouldn't waste my time on that show.

Not sure what happened, it said that I posted a reply already, but it is not showing. Although, I am using a hotel computer that is using Internet Explorer 6

[kitkatz]

I been getting that tonight. It is probably a system glitch. Patience, An update to the site is due soon.

I like Sons of Anarchy.

[jbeany]

I don't generally like sitcoms anyhow, so Worst Week didn't hit my radar at all.
The narrator's voice on Pushing Daisies started to wear on my nerves before I made it through the whole show.  I thought it was a cute premise, though.
I lasted through about 10 minutes of "Eleventh Hour".  Geez, Mulder and Sculley much?  Just because it worked once does not mean you should do it again!
I watched Sanctuary on scifi.com tonight.  Other than being disconcerted by hearing Amanda Tapping attempt an English accent, it wasn't much to watch.  They clearly take themselves much to seriously!

The movie Hellboy comes to mind and also X-Men when I saw that show. I agree, she shouldn't do the accent.

I like Sons of Anarchy.

Just saw that tonight in my hotel. Kinda didn't recognize Katy Segal without her saying Al and wearing pink shoes Didn't expect to see Ron Pearlman in a TV show either.

OMG True Blood is awesome!!  I watched the previous episodes I hadn't seen on Saturday, it was a True Blood fest.  SOOO HOOKED.

Now I just need Big Love to come back and also Rescue Me.
