wake me when september comes

(Yes, I know, the song title’s actually ‘when September ends,’ but whatevs, it didn’t fit my purpose like that, so I tweaked it. Sue me. Or, rather, don’t, as I have no money.)
I find it odd that so many Whedonverse fanatics loathe Dollhouse. I’ll be the first to say that yes, the first two episodes [...]

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: fox

A roundup: FOX is bringing back So You Think You Can Dance this fall instead of waiting for Summer 2010. It’s also renewed American Idol (shocker) and the majority of its edgy dramas, including House, Fringe, 24, Lie to Me, Bones, and, to my surprise and delight, Joss Whedon’s ratings-challenged (but awesome) Dollhouse.
For all my [...]

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 [...]

‘glee’ful

Heh. Yeah, that was a bad pun. Sorry.
Anyway, I should’ve probably written about midseason programming before two of the midseason shows I was really excited about — Dollhouse and Castle — aired, but hey, I wouldn’t be me if I didn’t procrastinate.
As I’ve said, I like Dollhouse. I like it more every week and hope [...]

welcome to the dollhouse

I have a confession to make: I took a while to watch the series premiere of Dollhouse. It’s just that I had heard that some people I know didn’t like it, and also, I am such a ginormous fan of Joss Whedon’s work that I was afraid I’d be hugely let down if the show [...]

i wish it were feb. 13 already

I know this has been circulating for a while. I’m not sure why I’m just now seeing it. Guess I’m not as dialed into the pop culture world as I once was. (Frakking priorities!)
Anyway, in case it isn’t clear, I really wish it were February 13.
I mean, c’mon. I don’t need to see the leaked [...]

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 [...]

it’s firefly all over again

Just when I thought FOX had turned over a new leaf, we get the news that instead of pairing the much-anticipated Joss Whedon/Eliza Dushku sci-fi thriller Dollhouse with the return of 24 on Monday nights, they’re sticking it on — wait for it — FRIDAYS. Otherwise known as the time slot of death.
And worse?
They’re sticking [...]

flight 627: the new flight 815?

FOX has released a three-minute trailer for Fringe — also known as the show that has me almost as impatiently excited as the Lost pilot — and you can bet that trumps any personal post from me.
I was freaking out while I watched it. The X-Files wishes it was ever this freaky.
And if that weren’t [...]
