This is coming pretty soon and, hey, I thought I'd give a run down on things I like watching or are interested in seeing. I'll likely end up dropping a number of these after a few episodes if they don't pan out.

Chuck
Premiers: Sept 20, 8/7pm
Lots of this blew up at the end of the third season and, really, the whole season was worth it for Brandon Routh (never though I'd write that) and Scott Bakula. Honestly. Such good bad guys in this.

The Event
Premiers: Sept. 20, 9/8pm
The more I hear about this the more I'm interested but I fear this will be like Fast Forward, which went no where quickly.

No Ordinary Family
Premiers: Sept. 28, 8/7pm
It looks like The Fantastic Four and/or The Incredibles. (Which I watched last night again. LOVE THAT MOVIE SO MUCH!) I'm going to give it a try. I find it interesting that the adults got physical powers and the kids more mental powers.

Undercovers
Premiers: Sept. 22, 8/7pm
J.J. Abrams show about a married spy couple. There, there and so there.

Nikita
Premier: Sept. 9, 9/8pm
Watched the pilot at Comic Con. Pretty standard fare until the last ten minutes or so, where they tried to switch it up a bit and mostly managed to do so. Worth at least an episode or two.

Human Target
Premiers: Oct. 1, 8/7pm
I am so glad this show got a second season. Fox has put it in the SLOT OF DEATH but, well, that's Fox for you. People should watch this for the by play between characters if nothing else. Honest.

The Walking Dead
Premiers: Oct. 31, 10/9pm
Oh yes. Hell yes. There are six episodes coming in the first season and word is they've been so well received that season two is not only greenlit but has started filming already.

House
Monday, September 20
I still like this show but I'm beginning to feel I'm watching it out of habit instead of out of love.

Glee
Tuesday, September 21
The guest stars alone lined up for this season will make it worth tuning in.

NCIS
Tuesday, September 21
I love this show. I love it a lot and I didn't think that would happen. I love me some Mark Harmon.

Criminal Minds
Wednesday, September 22
Again, I like this show but I get the feeling I'm watching it more out of habit than out of any love for what it is. With all of the cast changes over the summer, it might fall to the drop list pretty fast.

Grey's Anatomy
Thursday, September 23
As has been said by people more famous than I, I don't know why I like it, I just do.

Castle
Monday, September 20
Yeah! Castle is fun and funny.

Hawaii Five-0
Monday, September 20
There are enough actors that I really like on this show that I'm going to give it a chance.

I'll be watching a subset of this, plus probably at least the first three episodes of any non-reality-tv prime-time show on Syfy, because I'm a masochist like that.

Did you manage to catch the showing of "Bad Universe"?

I didn't. Things have been a little nutty recently and I totally forgot. Curses!

I mostly like Eureka this season. There is, what, Sanctuary, SGU, Warehouse 13....

Beast Legends could be fun.

I'm also thinking that there needs to be a drunken gathering to watch "Sharktopus".

HA!

Could be fun.

Nikita being a reboot sort of thing of La Femme Nikita?

I should apparently watch Chuck sometime.

Nikita is not really a reboot but more of a "She gets out, what happens next?" sort of a thing. So, a sequel with new actors....

Chuck is slow in some places and frustrating in others but man, when it is good, I love it with all of my geek heart.

Can we put Criminal Minds under the "don't know why" category? Not that I do, I think it's awful. The writing alone makes me want to ram pencils into my ears, but for some reason people like this (wife included).

I forgot about Eureka, even with the low production values I still loved that show. Must start recording again.

Criminal Minds runs really hot and cold for me. I love some of the characters but everything else is sort of flat for me.

This season of Eureka has been surprisingly good and less 'obvious plot of the week'.
