What Shows Are You Watching?
I can only fit a few new shows into my weekly schedule but heregoes:
Modern Family- anything w/ Ed Oneil in it is a good thing, and his new wife....nice. Fringe- Not new but fairly new and a good show I've heard good things about the Son's of Anarchy but not sure I have time to squeeze that one in. Any other suggestions? |

re: What Shows Are You Watching?
I was a bit disappointed with Modern Family. Funny, but not as funny as I had expected.
Community is kind of a pleasant surprise. Chevy Chase has really let himself go. Absolutely not a must see though My wife and I watch Glee, which is actually pretty good. From the creators of Popular and Nip/Tuck so it has a lot of really dark humor

re: What Shows Are You Watching?
Glee is hysterical, that's high on my list of must watch shows now.
I tried Flash Forward the first week, missed the subsequent shows. I might try to get back into it. It's trying to be a puzzle partially revealed bit by bit like Lost, but I'm not sure if its working for me yet. It's now in its second season, but this season I've gotten into Sons of Anarchy (on FX). Good mix of character development, action, and love interests. Plus FX ain't shy about showing nudity, violence, and bad language after 10pm. Part of me is still 15 years old and impressed by that stuff.

Just started watching "It's always sunny in Philadelphia."
Really starting to like it. Not a new show, but a great one. Curb your enthusiasm this season has been hysterical. The entire cast of Seinfeld has gotten together on the show, so it's setting up to be pretty epic.

Courtney Cox looks hot , does she not ? Son's of Anarchy is decent . If I were in my 20's I would try and get a part on Cougar as one of CC's boyfriends

Yes and No. It's a new season and like NBC says "If you haven't seen it, it's new to you."

re: What Shows Are You Watching?
While it's not new I'm really getting hooked on Parks and Recreation. I thought the first season was a little blah but it seems to be hitting it's stride now.

re: What Shows Are You Watching?
Nothing new, but a few of my staples are in full swing- Curb Your Enthusiasm, Family Guy, and The Office. I also really enjoyed this season of Entourage, which wrapped up on Sunday with a great season finale.

re: What Shows Are You Watching?
My wife and I have tried out the ABC Wednesday sitcoms. Hank typecasts Kelsey Grammer into essentially the same role he's had in every sitcom he's been in but he's a go-getting former CEO instead of a psychologist. The Middle is pretty much "Malcolm in the Middle" from the viewpoint of the Mom, and Patricia Heaton isn't that funny and no other character can help her carry the show.
Modern Family is good, Ed O'Neill has a bit of Al Bundy in him mixed with the Dad from My Three Sons, although his daughter's husband is annoying as all get out (Think of a cross between Michael Scott and Andy Bernard). Cougar Town is probably the best of those 4 shows, but I can see it getting stale real fast. Christa Miller looks like she's had too much plastic surgery, and the blonde is quite annoying. We both found Community to be painful. Watched 2 episodes before giving up. We did get into Top Chef since the Voltaggio Brothers are from Frederick, and like the show.
