4.5 hours spent on Monday and 6 nights left to fill the remaining 16.5 on my quest to limit my fall TV schedule to 21 hours a week. Right off the bat I’m heavy on the drama, so lets hope today brings us some Reality or comedy.
Bring it on Tuesday! Whachu got, cuz?!
Tuesday
Tuesday is all about House in our… er… house. It’s really the only “DVR better not glitch tonight or I swear I’ll chuck it through my plasma” show we’ve got that day. The Biggest Loser is a blast, but can drag on, and it’s kind of like Extreme Home Makeover in that I enjoy seeing other people happy but it makes me frustratingly aware of my own inability to lose weight (or build a dream home in 7 days). Cavemen and The Reaper will get the 3 ep test (check last weeks blog for more on that) and that’s about it. The Singing Bee completely failed its 3 ep test, so I won’t be watching that. Bones is a decent show but if Im gonna land anywhere near 21 I have to be picky (procedural dramas are the first to go). And despite the fact that I kinda miss Boston Legal (well, technically I miss Spader and Shatner) I’m not going back to it now.
