Thursdays: Survivor, Smallville, Greys Anatomy

For some reason, I never seem to watch any new shows and it isn't until they are into like season 3 that I ever take notice and then catch up on dvd.

I need to sit down and actually fill out my watching schedule grid, but right now, I'm looking forward to The Class. It looks funny, and it looks like it will go well paired with How I Met Your Mother. Plus, I read today that Sara Gilbert is going to be joining the cast, and she was my absolute favorite on Roseanne. So it's nice to see her back on TV too.

 

[Rob P S]

King of the Hill
Lost
24
Without a Trace

 

[LarryDavenport]

I watched the NBC Fall Preview on On Demand, and I know there was a sitcom that caught my eye but I can't remember which one. It looked like a single camera show.

 

[Andy Sheets]

My wife and I are looking forward to seeing Friday Night Lights. I'm mildly curious about Heroes but I doubt we'll be watching it. We don't really have "appointment television" anymore.

 

[Roger_S]

As far as the major networsk go, I'll be checking out just 3 of the new shows and ironically they're all on Monday night:

The Class
Heroes
Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip

As far as returning shows...

How I Met Your Mother
The Biggest Loser
Smallville
Deal or No Deal
America's Funniest Home Videos
Reba (whenever it gets on)

And I may check out Brothers & Sisters as I do like some of the cast of that show.

 

[danak]

New shows I'm going to check out (* means high on my must see list):
Heroes
Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip
Friday Night Lights
Jericho*
30 Rock (only if I can find a free machine to tape it on; Wed has too much stuff)

Kidnapped
The Nine*
Day Break
Ugly Betty*
Duets

Returning shows:

My "Must List"...

Sunday:
"The Amazing Race"

Monday:

[Craig S]

To me, this is one of the most interesting new seasons in a while, with about twice as many shows that I'll sample as usual. That said, I'm expecting to drop at least half after a few viewings. May drop some of the oldies as well. The list below is just too damn long.

Luckily, there's only a couple of conflicts, and I plan on picking up a new Series 3 dual-tuner HD TiVo the minute they release them (expected to be within a week or so) to help deal with those.

As always, my schedule is "reality" free!!

I have prioritized multiple shows in the same time slot, with...

(1) watch live
(2) record (#1 if I'm not home or just too tired to watch TV)
(3) wait for repeat (#2)

With multiple shows in the same time slot that aren't numbered, I haven't decided yet. Also, there is a possibility that I may watch some shows on the internet (like Innertube), depending on the screen. I hate watching any show on a puny screen.

 

[Brian^K]

Interesting. I was thinking along these lines this past weekend, and redid my list not in terms of when the show is broadcast, but when I'll watch it... that was illuminating!
