Fall TV Review…Spoiler Alert!
Posted in: Ninja Squirrels and Other Oddities by Spider on October 01, 2008
Heroes…lets just say I wasn’t impressed. I was bored actually…and that made me disappointed. My buddy Supe stated earlier that he might be “off” Heroes, and lo and behold, so did fellow blogospherian Echo. So apparently the sentiment is not mine alone. I found it predictable, and even soap opera-esque. Syler, I’m your mom…seriously? As if the Petrelli’s aren’t already fucked up enough. And does anyone else think Peter is a whiny little bitch? Ok, that’s enough, I’m getting annoyed just thinking about it.
Chuck: Can I just say I love this show. It’s spy, it’s action, and it’s funny. While I did miss a portion of it (I was playing Cootie with LB) (NBC.com + HTPC = kick ass) what I did see was great. Chuck pretending to be his alter ego, super spy Charles Carmicheal, meanwhile back at the Buy More a cage match to determine the new Asst. Manager…that my friends is good TV.
Knight Rider: Alright, I admit it, I watched it. The 10-year-old me somewhere deep in my brain made me do it. I had some secret hope it would be good…it was horrific. Like a train wreck. The acting = bad painfully bad. The voice of KITT, Val Kilmer…whaaa? Not to mention KITT is now a Mustang…which by some amazing technology can convert into an F-150…maybe they should call the show “Knight Rider, Brought to you by FORD. I give it 5 episodes before this latest KR incarnation rides off into the sunset.
Life: I cannot say enough about this show, I love it. Damien Lewis (Band of Brothers, Dreamcatcher) is awesome. It isn’t a fast-paced shoot out cop show. It’s slow, intellectual and darkly funny.

Wow. We do not have one single show in common. Well, except for playoff baseball.

Yeah, the only thing going for Heroes now is the incredibly hot Maya. Life is a great show, I agree with you.
You need to watch Dexter, that’s the best show on TV.
