The Glade 4.0

With the loss of Stargate Universe and Smallville, and that I lost interest in House last season, my weekly TV queue will be a bit smaller. Here's a few knew ones that have caught my eye so far:

Charlie's Angels. Yeah, I expect pure corniness that will not last a full season, but it does appear to be a labor of love on the part of Executive Producer Drew Barrymore, who seems to really like this intellectual property. Unknown cast, 70's format, and yet the trailer is strangely compelling.

Alcatraz. Oddly, despite J.J. Abrams plots seeming to all share certain threads, this has grabbed me as quickly as the news that Fringe was renewed for a fourth season. Plus, it's got Sam Neill!

Grimm. David Greenwalt makes a supernatural detective show. Where have I heard that before? It's worked in the past, and this show looks fun.

What are you waiting for?

Madmen and Breaking Bad are my two current favorites.

I missed the new Sarah Michelle Gellar show, it looks like it may be intersting though.

Person of Interest

Benjamin Linus and Jesus on the same show? Yes please.

Tera Nova looks promising so I'll give it a try.

I've heard good things about Two Broke Girls

That's about it for me.

I'm interested in Alcatraz & Tera Nova, we'll see what else catches my attention.

I haven't been paying much attention. I'll likely wait, watch some pilots online and see what catches my interest.

In Plain Sight, Covert Affairs, and White Collar all closed up their delayed runs on Hulu this week. So I'm kind of without a lot to watch too. Running through Highlander for lack of anything else right now.

I'm vaguely interested in seeing if Revenge is any good. I'm all for a Count of Monte Cristo reskinning now and then.

We had to read Alexender Dumas' original in French in my last year of high school. It took me about five minutes per page, sometimes longer. I'll tell you though, I've never been so interested in figuring out what a frenchman was saying as I was when I read that book. Great story.

This may get me to watch TV again, we shall see.

Revenge was passable and intriguing.
I haven't caught any more "new" shows yet.

Anyone catch the new show, Ringer? I've been enjoying the first two episodes so far.
