I can’t remember awaiting the beginning of a new fall TVseason as much as I’ve been looking forward to this one. Between the Olympics and reality TV, I need some real shows! And seriously, football?? Already?? Oh, yeah, and Augustfest on PBS? Puh-leeze.
We only get about ten decent channels. Cox Cable laughed when we asked if they’d ever bring cable the mile from the road to our house. We had a satellite dish, but one of several lightning strikes took that out and all the wiring for it, too. So we make do.
There’s just not much to make do with right now. Where is Once Upon a Time? Touch? I need some new Criminal Minds. I’ve memorized all of the old ones. (Who besides me thinks David Rossi aka Joe Mantegna is the sexiest man on TV?)
Big Bang Theory, I need some new laughs. NCIS, isn’t it time for some new cases? Person of Interest, my interest has waned past the point of nonexistent. Please delve into your Beast and show us some new footage.
I’m withering here!

I totally agree. Except I like the nerdy guy on Criminal Minds. I want to brush his hair out of his eyes, among other things. Haven’t seen any of the new shows advertised. Anything look interesting?
Matthew Gray Gubler aka Dr. Spencer Reid. Is he not too cute???
I haven’t seen a single commercial that makes me think, “Ooh, gotta see that!” There is one — of course, I can’t remember the name — about a group of military folks who turn on a rogue Administration that I’ll at least give a shot. Beyond that, zip.
I’m ready too and a have lots of channels! Late last night when I couldnt sleep, I couldn’t find a thing to watch. (And I like some reality TV, but sheesh it’s going too far too!)
I turned on the TV last night after we left Cam with his dad, and there was football on FIVE of our ten lousy channels, and Augustfest took up two more. Yuck.
Oh, well. Guess I’ll just read. (What my husband says I do all of the time anyway).
I’ve been doing a lot of writing in the evenings the last few months, so maybe I’ll continue that. And who knows? I might actually CLEAN once in a while.
Clean? For crying out loud. Why would you want to clean when you could write or read? Windex and paper towels are my all-purpose-clean-every-surface thing. If I could just figure out how to make the clothes iron themselves I’d be good to go.
So what is wrong with football??
haha I love football and can’t wait for the season to start.
We don’t get cable here either so we’ve had satellite for years.
No, little grasshopper, no football. Not here. Not ever. I can’t imagine how desperate I would have to be for TV background to turn on a football game. Or, as far as that goes, any kind of game besides the occasional Olympics event. {{shudder}}
