Thoughts: 10-September-2009

It took a couple of days but now I am in the mood to write my blog.

I purchased Scrubs Season 8 from Amazon.com and got it in today's mail. ABC added a bonus disk attached to the set which is a starter kit for the ABC season. Castle, a show that I could only watch for ten minutes, has its pilot episode along with a 2 hour Brothers & Sisters show. I watched the pilot of Brothers & Sisters and that was all I could stand. I will pass this on to a friend of mine who moans that she cannot keep up with her favorite ABC shows.

Durham County (Ion) is a new show about a cop moving into a new neighborhood where his next door neighbor is an old friend who he ran over when they were kids, thus ruining his chances to make the NHL after being a top pick, and now is a serial killer. Show is pretty dark and so far our serial killer is killing people in the area, one of which is his kid's teacher who was trying to get him to cough up some money to pay the kid's expenses to some exclusive writer's program. Not much of a serial killer if all the people he kills are ones he knows and can be tied to. I give the first show a B, but this could quickly turn into a D show.

Warehouse 13 (SyFy) has gotten great ratings and the latest episode was great, an A rating. The agents were trapped in a disaster at the warehouse that they had to solve without Artie who was getting the third degree from the Reagents who run the warehouse. I like the way the chemistry is working between the cast and loved finding out more about what is in the warehouse. The TBS series about the Librarian should spend some time in the library and show us the neat stuff archived there.

Sons of Anarchy (FX) had its 2nd season premiere this week. SamCrow is going to be dealing with a white supremacist group out to drive them out of town. They kidnapped Gemma, played by Katy Segal, and raped her when SamCrow disrespected them. What a wild way to start this season, Gemma is going to be out for vengeance like one of those women from Ms 45 or a Pam Grier film. The cast really makes this show and this premiere gets an A.

Leverage (TNT) had its summer season finale last night, and there was a nice turn with a new grifter played by Jeri Ryan. Great show that will be back in Jan, gets an A.

Tonight on the CW, the return of Supernatural and the premiere of Vampire Dairies. I was not going to watch the latter, but nothing else is on at the time tonight, so I figured that I would give it a shot.

Oh well.
