Favorite new Fall Show?
I watch weird stuff on tv...I despise reality shows, although I did watch the Apprentice one season, and I do like American Idol...but all the shows that make folks eat bugs, or swim thru manure just don't do anything for me...guess I'm not a voyeur at heart...So I watch Mythbusters, Poirot, Antiques Roadshow (and the even better History Detectives - PBS!), I love the BBCAmerica shows like Cash in the Attic (you get to see inside English homes and all their junk - much more sophisticated than American junk!) and the comedy show Little Britain cracks me up...
but I started watching the new show on Bravo called "Great Things About Being..." where they take a subject and spend an hour interviewing comedians about what's so great about being...whatever...So far I've seen the 'Fat' and 'Queer' episodes and they have a few new ones coming up, like what's great about being Blonde, 30 or living in a Red State...If you've seen any of the 'I Love The 70's/80's' shows on VH1 (I don't include the 90's cause its not nostalgic to remember something that happened last week), then you get the idea...yes, it kept me up late last night watching, but so far both episodes have been pretty funny...and the comedians are not TOO obnoxious...
So, what shows have you discovered on the new Fall Lineup that you like? I've not followed much of the new stuff on the major networks, I'm waiting till the chaff is cut away...I tried watching the 'My Name is Earl' show and just didn't get it...but I do like the Office with Steve Carell...its not new, but no one is watching it...I also like Arrested Development - another show no one is watching...at least I'll have it on DVD...sigh...

actually, I'm not really watching any "new" shows, but I did recently get hooked on "Dead Like Me" (esp. since it was shot in BC). Unfortunately I found out that Showtime cancelled it. DANG. I watched all of Six Feet Under .... I sense a theme... I'm trying not to watch any more dead-shows, but I am a fan of the LV CSI, only since Spike started showing them, then I got caught up on the current season last year. Now I'm hooked.

just to clarify - if you leave a comment but don't see it posted right away, its because we have to approve them (unless you create an account, then you get to post right away)...the reason for this is, the SPAM programs out there were hammering this website somethin' fierce, so to keep all the junk out, we have to hand approve the entry...and I wasn't online a lot yesterday, so that I could make beads w/out allowing myself to get too distracted with other fun things...look! shiny objects! (and donna runs away)...
