Fall Fashion Week for your TiVo | September 17, 2006
How did I ever live in a world without TiVo? I can't even imagine living with only one, or with two that aren't dual tuners. I am spoiled, and insane.
But you benefit, because you get to read my TiVos list -- or, as I like to think of it, my guide to what YOUR TiVo(s) should be wearing this fall -- listed by time slot (so that you'll understand why some things are in TiVo 1, which is in my living room, and why some are in TiVo 2, in the bedroom). I will link the new shows to their respective home pages and I'll bold those that should be watched by all of you if you want to be my friend. I might be kidding. My point is, those are the shows I recommend most highly.
Anyway, here you go. A complete list of what I'll be watching, at least to start the season:

I bow, awestruck, before you.
(Aside: When I see "Help Me Help You," I can think only of Dr. Cox on "Scrubs" berating Elliot.

are there enough hours in the day to WATCH all this stuff, though? soon, you may run out of time to even write this blog...

I have a dual-tuner DVR AND a 2nd TV, but still, some nights are dicey - Mondays and Sundays in particular.

I am weary of Smith, The Nine and Six Degrees. So as Kidnapped. Maybe, just maybe, when I am going to be home more often, I will eventually watch those shows. Till then, the only newbies I might give a chance are Ugly Betty, Studio 60, 30 Rock and 20 Good Years. Heroes already snagged me so that's going to be a permanent thing until the season is over, cancelled or done for the season.
Let me know how the other shows work out.
I've watched Men In Trees. It reminds me a bit of Northern Exposure. Quirky and quick witted. However, do you think it will last a season? The first ep didn't appear that strong.

Maybe you should talk more about the cable stuff you watch. We only have HBO, so really you only need to tell me about those shows.
(Actually, I'm watching all of the HBO shows, I just love hearing your take on them!!)

Do I REALLY have to keep watching "Vanished" to be your friend? I was way disappointed with that show. At least the first episode. Maybe it got better. I have a short attention span.

Did you see the new Law & Order episodes on last night? It was NOT THE SAME L&O. It seems like maybe they are trying to be CSI and it wasn't pretty. I want the old L&O back.
What do you think? What have you heard?
