We Watch Too Much TV - Season Opener Opinions

So the new TV season is off, with a barely audible bang. So far from me it seems everything is just mewh, whatever at least it's new. Here's what we've watched so far.

 

Gossip Girl:  Two shows in and I still feel like I'm waiting for the season to start. Nothing too exciting and some really cheesy stuff. Blair carries off the uber bitch routine around her school age cronnies but up against a older woman she just looks silly and childish. Everything else that has gone on was just sort of uninteresting.. Serena and Nate back together immediately, whatever. Rufus home lovin his kids, duh.. that's the premise. Come on GG, excite me! The Mrs Robinson plot is cliche and tired. The kids are getting predictable. Even Chuck was lame this week.

90210: Watched the two hour opener - skipped the show this week. I was interested in the old returning characters even if their run was limited. And it didn't spend enough time on them to draw me back. I wanted to see more than just polite conversation between Brenda and Kelly.

Entourage: Couldn't have been more boring. Granted I like this show for it's snappy dialogue and not the hot chicks. If you watch for the hot chicks then you were happy with the season opener. The folks at Entourage clearly phoned the first episode in because they didn't want to come home from vacation. Here's hoping they are back in town now and back at work being all snappy.

Sara Conner/Terminator: Okay they ended this one with a serious violation as far as I'm concerned... you do not let the cute boy shave his head! Suddenly he is no longer cute. The good Cameron/bad Cameron thing is a deal breaker for me. If she's not good Cameron then I'm not interested. And I still have a problem with the fact that they have never addressed one unavoidable fact. If they are successful: John will cease to exist.

John exists because his father was sent back in time after the machines took over to protect Sarah they get it on, John is created. The current show's objective is to prevent the machine's from ever taking over. If they destroy the Turk before Judgement Day then Kyle will never need to travel through time and he will never impregnate Sarah. By altering the future as they are trying to do.. John ceases to exist.

 

Nothing else new for us this week until Saturday when I can't wait for SNL to take on the politicians!!
