First Snow Arrives..
Got the first snowfall of the season this weekend. I was driving from our place into the city at the time. Turned a corner in the next town over and could not see the garage just two houses away.
45 minutes latter I was out of it and another 30 minutes later I was approaching the city in bright sunshine with blue skies above me.
All this after a week when one day it was 15, the next 2 then 12 then 4.. I guess the best way to put it is the weather's changing more frequently than TV exec's mind.

Digg thisWhy do I watch shows I don't like?
I'm not a fan of Cane, yet I've watched just about all of the episodes. I just switched the channels to put it on again and I listen and watch and wonder why. I've no answer for it.
It could be stopped though if Bionic Woman or Criminal Minds where moved into that time slot on that day then I would be torn between which to watch "live" and which to hold over until later. Some of that is dictated by the talk at work and some by the interest factor of the episode itself. Normally it's Woman because it's the new show on the block for me.

Couple of hits, Couple of misses... For me atleast.
Enjoying Bionic Woman and Pushing Up Daisies from the new shows. Moonlight and Cane need to go.
The revamped Bionic Woman blows away the original show with it's Alias organization running the Bionics experimentation group.
Pushing Up Daisies is a very off beat and interesting show that might not have the legs to last a full season but it's going to be fun watching it whilst it lasts.

Been Awhile
Jericho is coming back and CBS are doing their bit to ensure it has a chance of success by scheduling repeats of at least part of the first season. Nice to see they didn't just hang it out to dry and prove they where right to cancel it in the first place.
Just want to say thank you for this CBS. Now kill that Kid Nation show.. it looks like a real dog to me.
CBS delivers rotten fish
That's right, your news shows show little promise of something remotely matching the show you just cancelled especially Kid Nation which takes the place of that show.
Smarten up and renew Jericho as a mid season replacement for the failures you just green lit.

Chuck Chuck Versus the Nemesis Avg Score: 9.41 Total Ratings: 337 Total Reviews: 24 Users who disagree: 13 |
The one thing this episode relied on was that Chuck's intercept didn't know everything (allowing the evil agents to infiltrate the Buy More without Chuck "flashing" on them). It the start of the end for the show unless they find a way to "top" up the information Chuck is holding.
Anyway, the basic story line was Bryce comes back, he and Sarah connect, he and Chuck connect (and talk Klingon). Chuck turns out to be a good guy and the bad guys are after him. They defeat the bad guys and Bryce disappears into the sunset whilst the episode ends with Sarah left having to make a choice.

The show follows two college room mates as they seek to descover why the other college student they shared a house with set them up for a terrorist attack. All this whilst they themselves are on the run from the FBI for the said attack.
Revelations come pretty freely through the season but also open up more and more questions. Questions that ultimately won't get answered on the screen (the creators have revealed what they had planned for the future of the show since it's cancellation). The good though is we do get an answer for who Will Traveller is.

The pacing of the episode is fine but once it's all over your left wanting more answers. Like why did the killer decide to start dumping the bodies at this time? It didn't make sense for him to start now unless something was changing in his life (like relocating to another city - which would mean no more bodies this year but there was one). Why would the team dress up for the haloween party whilst they worked on an active case? Add to this that the minute I saw the medic guy treating the woman I knew he was the killer.
Still enjoyed watching it however.
What I don't like about the show is the only FBI agent that has doubts of the boys guilt is the one with a troubled past. It's the one thing that annoys me about the show because it's typical TV.
All in all this was a good episode that at the very least gave us a feeling we knew more at the end of it than we did at the beginning without actually giving away all that much.

It did do one thing right, it set up the next season by revealing there was someone worse than the boogie man (Sylar) out there. Who is it? We don't know but you can be sure he'll be a big player next season.
