I'm going to watch tonight, because it the first episode not dictated by Fox (according to several Joss interviews), so I am hoping I see more... Jossy Stuff.

  I thought that was show number 6. This isn't number 6 tonight is it?

I'm gonna watch the whole schammozle but I have so far been very much underwhelmed .

I wanted to be whelmed .

I'd settle for being whel at this point.

So , how was it ?

So , how was it ?

I'll let you know in a day or two when I get around to watching it. It isn't high on my list of priorities these days.

Annoying tech dude is annoying. Joss loves his annoying nerds, so we endure or we lose interest.

I don't mind Topher over much .

I like Echo's handler and Victor is my favourite "doll" .

The English chick is kewl too .
( like Sierra but it's more to do with her exotic hawtness than actual character )

Alpha is interesting .

However - the "villains" have been lame as have Echo's situations and malfunctions .

And the dialogue ( which is why we're sort of watching ? ) is very un-Jossian .

Too lazy to check, but did Tim also write "Shindig"? There was a line in there that really TRIED to sound like Mal...nearly a quote. *sigh*

We had a movie night last night so I missed Sarah Connor , Dollhouse and BSG .

( we watched "Outlander" - surprisingly good - and "My Name is Bruce" - awesome , but I'm a Campbellite )

  Yes, Chuck was doing better I think before House was moved. Hmmm, maybe Fox is trying to tank all
of our Firefly crews new shows so they can bring back Firefly since they are disappointed with Dollhouse.


  What?!!!! Okay, I can dream.

House is on Mondays because of American Idol taking its Tuesday slot. I forget where they put it in years past (Wed?) and it will probably stay on Mondays so Fox can pimp a new show after Idol. House after Idol was always a good time. Unfortunately at this stage of the game Idol is 2 hours.

American Idol is the devil. And it has me in it spell.

The landscape of NBC is definitely changing, and not for the better. If NBC decides to keep Life, they can't move it to 8pm, it's just too grisly. It's bad enough it's on at 9. Medium is going to have to settle for a 9pm slot, it is not as Ghost Whisperer-friendly.

The only reason Jay Leno will be on at 10 is to ease the transition to Conan.

It's this kind of stuff that keeps cable TV shows at the top.
