Before we get to what I'm going to watch this season, I thought it would be interesting to see what I suggested last year. So that's what I'll do in Part I.
The first show I wrote about was "COMMUNITY". I started to watch it because of Joel McHale. And I stopped watching it because of Chevy Chase.
This is a seriously retarded show if you think about it for 2 seconds. It makes no sense. The whole NBC Thursday night comedy lineup exists in an insane cartoon world that I can't stand. I stopped watching this show after 3 or 4 episodes, but I heard it got better. I don't know if that's true, and I'm not giving it another chance.
Next up was "SHARK TANK". I've said it a million times, I love Shark Tank. It's awesome. I sit around all day and think of Shark Tank ideas.
However, America doesn't love it at all. But miraculously, it's been saved again. It will be coming back with new episodes. Unfortunately, Jeff Foxworthy will be joining the "sharks" for some reason. But still, Shark Tank with a red neck is better than no Shark Tank at all.
"MODERN FAMILY" - I stuck with it all season, and it is a funny show. Is it the funniest show on TV? Well I don't know about all that, but it is well done.
Here's one beef I have with it: the "mockumentary" thing. I thought we were done with this like 10 years ago, now it's the only way a half hour show can work.It's a crutch.
"COUGAR TOWN". Yikes. I'm embarrassed I was even hopeful about this last year. I stopped watching after episode 2, I just couldn't look at Courtney Cox's mouth anymore.
"MELROSE PLACE". Okay, in my defense, I said I would watch only because of Dr. Michael Mancini, and I stand by that. I stopped watching after I saw Ashlee Simpson.
"FLASH FORWARD". The typical big idea show with a strong start, and a sad finish. I'll be honest, I stuck with it the entire way. I don't care. I will defend this show to the death. It wasn't perfect, but occasionally it was really good. On a side note, I'm really glad I don't have to watch it anymore.
"GLEE". I really liked the pilot. The second episode was pretty good. And then the football team did a song and dance routine during a game and I was out. And I never got back in. Interestingly, that's right around the time the show blew up and became huge. So apparently, I know nothing.
Tomorrow, Part II, and I tell you what I don't know about a whole new slate of shows...
