TV Fall 2008...Your View!!!

Just a little heads up the season kicks off a little earlier this year for fans of the FOX hit "Bones"...

Bones - 2 hour Opening episode for the 4th season (September 3rd)

If am right, its set in sunny old ENGLAND, would love to see Stephen Fry's character return.
 
Re: Network TV Fall 2008...Your View!!!

1. What new show are you looking the most forward too seeing in the fall and Mid-season?

None, really. Haven't followed the new season stuff.

Does the new NFL season count? If so, then that...

2. What established show are you looking the most forward too seeing again in the fall and Mid-season?

Fall: The Office & 30 Rock
Mid: Scrubs, Reaper

3. What new Show do you least care about this fall and Mid-season ?

All of them, I guess.

4. Are you giving up on any established shows that you have watched from previous seasons?

I've already given up on Eureka. Still a season behind on Lost, though I'll probably catch up and watch the rest at some point. Ditto for Prison Break.

5. The 3 most likely new shows to be cancelled this season?

I don't know.

6. The 3 most likely established shows to be cancelled this season?

I don't know.

7. List in order from Best to worst, your opinion on the network postions come the season's end for most watched network?

I think it's safe to say that CW will be last. Beyond that, no idea.

1. What new show are you looking the most forward too seeing in the fall and Mid-season?

I have made a list of the shows I seach Zap2it each week to see if/when they are on, and the only new shows on it are

My Own Worst Enemy
Knight Rider
Fringe
Dollhouse
Sanctuary

I hope to see a lot of Christian Slater this year. I hope the writing on Dollhouse is as appealing to me as Buffy/Angel/Firefly was.

2. What established show are you looking the most forward too seeing again in the fall and Mid-season?

There are quite a few returning shows on my list
30 Rock
Heroes
Terminator
Reaper
Eureka
Stargate Atlantis
Simpsons
Smallville
Lipstick Jungle

I am most looking forward to CW not screwing up Reaper. I hope Heroes rebounds. I only watch Lipstick Jungle scenes with Andrew MacCarthy in them.

3. What new Show do you least care about this fall and Mid-season ?

If it is not on my list I don't care enough about it already to remember a name


4. Are you giving up on any established shows that you have watched from previous seasons?

I always watch a show to the bitter end.

5. The 3 most likely new shows to be cancelled this season?

Probably three on my list. If I really like a show, it gets canned.

6. The 3 most likely established shows to be cancelled this season?

Probably three on my list. If I really like a show, it gets canned. Smallville should end. CW will probably implode. Reaper could move to SciFi or FOX or ABC Lifetime.

7. List in order from Best to worst, your opinion on the network postions come the season's end for most watched network?

I work for an ABC/FOX/CW affiliate so I'll go with NBC
 
Re: Network TV Fall 2008...Your View!!!

(Try to name just one show for the fall and the same for mid-season)

1. What new show are you looking the most forward too seeing in the fall and Mid-season?

Fall- Fringe- more JJ Abrams good ness is very welcome.
Midseason Dollhouse the premise sounds cool and Joss Whedon will deliver I am sure.

2. What established show are you looking the most forward too seeing again in the fall and Mid-season?

Fall - oh man that's tough. I's have to say Smallville as I am really interested to see how they do minus the best character on tv Lex Luthor.

Midseason Battlestar Galactica- anxious as can be to se how it ends.

3. What new Show do you least care about this fall and Mid-season ?
Don't really have a specific show If I'm interested I'm interested, if not, I'm not.

4. Are you giving up on any established shows that you have watched from previous seasons?

I may give up on CSI Mimai, CSI NT, and Prison Break depending on how the start of the seasons go.

5. The 3 most likely new shows to be cancelled this season?

Eleventh Hour- the promos have been horrible
Valentine and Privledged- CW shows that won't help the network


6. The 3 most likely established shows to be cancelled this season?

Boston legal, The Unit, Lipstick Jungle

7. List in order from Best to worst, your opinion on the network postions come the season's end for most watched network?[/quote]

FOX, CBS, ABC, NBC, CW
 
Re: Network TV Fall 2008...Your View!!!

(Try to name just one show for the fall and the same for mid-season)

1. What new show are you looking the most forward too seeing in the fall and Mid-season?

In the fall, I'm looking forward to seeing Fringe the most out of the new shows. Alias and Lost were both great and Fringe should be too.

At midseason, Joss Whedon's Dollhouse should be awesome. Just wish it wasn't on FOX...

2. What established show are you looking the most forward too seeing again in the fall and Mid-season?

In the fall, I'm looking forward Pushing Daises alot. I also have to mention Heroes and Eli Stone. :)

At midseason, I'm looking forward to Lost. Last season was so great. This new season should be even better. That said, I think its about time 24 got back! I hope the time off as helped the show...

3. What new Show do you least care about this fall and Mid-season ?

In the fall and mid-season, I'm least interested in all the new & old reality shows. Ugh. I wish reality shows would just fade away already...

4. Are you giving up on any established shows that you have watched from previous seasons?

I most likely won't watch Ghost Whisperer anymore. While the season finale was good, the episodes before that weren't very good. Unless I hear thats its really getting better, I doubt I'll be watching it.

5. The 3 most likely new shows to be cancelled this season?

Oh, I hate to say it, but I think Dollhouse is a strong canidate. Its a Sci-Fi Show and its on FOX. Oh, plus its a Whedon show on FOX (Firefly anyone?). I mean, really...haven't you learned yet Joss? I don't care if its different people. FOX is FOX. The people may change, but the attitude never does.

Second most likely, its probably Cursoe. It looks good, but it also looks like it might be a pricey show. So if it doesn't get good ratings right away...

Third most likely, Merlin. I know we don't know much about it, but it seems doubtful it'll last.

6. The 3 most likely established shows to be cancelled this season?

Law & Order. I'm really suprised that this show came back this season! I'm doubtful that'll it last another one after this one.

CSI. Getting rid of Grissom? Bad idea. I doubt that orignal CSI will last much longer.

Terminator: I hate to say it, but I doubt this will last long on FOX. I think the only reason it was renewed this time was because of the upcoming movie. Sci-fi shows and FOX just don't mix...

7. List in order from Best to worst, your opinion on the network postions come the season's end for most watched network?

ABC: IF ABC keeps treating shows like Pushing Daises, Eli Stone, and Lost well, I think it'll probably be one of my most watched networks.

NBC: Heroes, Life, etc. They have a good lineup. Actually, seems like the best lineup out of all the networks.

FOX: Terminator, Prison Break, 24, House, Fringe, Dollhouse. I'm sure I'll be VERY unhappy about Dollhouse being canceled, but the network still has some good shows.

CBS: I use to really like CBS, but some of their most recent choices haven't been great. I'm watching CBS less and less.

The networks should be OK by season end.
