2009 fall tv schedule

So here we go: all times CST; * denotes new show; red highlights guaranteed Season Passes; green indicates those shows almost certain to gain SP status; purple indicates those shows on a trial basis; Idol gets its own color because I only watch the last quarter of it each season.
(As I’ve mentioned in earlier schedule-related [...]

upfronts: nbc

All I really care about is that Chuck is renewed! Hallelujah! And yes, it’s only 13 episodes, and yes, they’ll have to scale back the supporting cast — possibly even cutting one actor — but really? I’m not sure I’d mind if there were no supporting cast outside Awesome and Ellie, because I only watch [...]

nbc’s fall sked — still no word on chuck

I don’t care about the other bubble shows — Medium, Law and Order, My Name Is Earl — conspicuously left out of NBC’s fall unveiling. I also find it surprising that Parks & Recreation got a pick-up and the network’s still keeping mum about Chuck’s fate.
Not that Parks & Rec isn’t amusing. It is. But [...]

so long, sarah connor

I can’t say I’m surprised that FOX has unofficially officially handed Sarah Connor her walking papers. Word from the network PTB is that we won’t know anything “for sure” until May 18, but well, everyone who’s anyone has already said the “c” word. Numerous times.
This time, though, I can’t blame FOX. By all accounts and [...]

winter premieres

I love Kristin Dos Santos over at E!. I was just thinking I should probably start digging all of this info up, and she goes and does it for me…maybe I should send her a fruit basket.
I can’t remember what my former distinction colors were, so this time around, red will indicate shows that have [...]

smörgåsbord

I used to post practically everyday or at least every other day about pop culture stuff. Now I have to force myself to sit down and regurgitate about 10 days’ worth of TV tidbits and reviews and general gushing.
Here we go:
Chuck: Oh, how I missed Chuck. With the exception of some of the Lester/Jeff/Anna/Morgan stuff, [...]

matt says it better than me

As always.
I was going to post about the much-anticiptated returns of Chuck and Life (but mostly Chuck), only to find that they are the subjects of his latest Roush Dispatch.
Oh my goodness, I am so looking forward to Chuck tonight. I know that I could’ve seen it already on iTunes for free, but there’s just [...]

dear nbc, i think i might love you

Matt Roush said something the other day that worried me — namely that Chuck was in a very, very competitive timeslot on Monday nights at 7 p.m. CST and was probably the most vulnerable.
He has a point.
Chuck is up against the likes of Prison Break, Gossip Girl, ratings juggernaut Dancing With the Stars, and CBS’ [...]

not shaken, just nerd

It goes without saying that the second coming of The X-Files (or, more officially, JJ Abram’s Fringe) is the new series about which I’m most excited.  It’s also probably the only new series I’m going to watch, although I plan to check out the new Jerry Bruckheimer offering, Eleventh Hour.
But the returning show I’m most [...]

darlton & the pips: the comic-con showrunners panel

There is such a ginormous volume of stuff coming from Comic-Con that I have stopped trying to keep track of it all. (I haven’t even watched all the Twilight footage, nor do I think I want to.)
I’m not even sure I would’ve wanted to be at the Twilight panel because as I’ve stated before, I [...]
