Hood) shows up in the beginning and we see tons of PDX-y<br \/>\nstuff.&nbsp; Characters aren&#8217;t real Portlanders, but it&#8217;s fun to see what<br \/>\nthey have done this way.&nbsp; Hank Azaria is great, too.&nbsp; Ratingswise, it&#8217;s<br \/>\nnot looking like it will stick around, but since it&#8217;s NBC, it may have<br \/>\nmore of a chance than the other networks because they don&#8217;t have as many<br \/>\noptions to switch out.&nbsp; Hopefully, they&#8217;ll give it more of a chance.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><u>Tried<\/u>, but no cigar:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Up All Night<\/b>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nbc.com\/up-all-night\/\">NBC<\/a>: Sorry, Will Arnett, we deleted this season pass already.&nbsp; Too many unfunny jokes.<\/li>\n<li><b>Person of Interest<\/b>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cbs.com\/shows\/person_of_interest\/\">CBS<\/a>: Eek.&nbsp; I had such high hopes.&nbsp; Too much vengence.&nbsp; I&#8217;ve got the 2nd episode on the TiVo, and don&#8217;t really feel like even watching it, although the numbers and computer system is an intriguing possibility.&nbsp; The filming is really choppy, too.<\/li>\n<li><b>New Girl<\/b>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fox.com\/new-girl\/\">FOX<\/a>: It was funny at times, but also a little too awkward.&nbsp; I&#8217;m not sure yet, but I&#8217;m pretty sure we are done.&nbsp; However, I might give it another episode *because* it&#8217;s already been picked up for the season, so they have a longer time to make it flow better.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><u>Returnarama<\/u>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>The Vampire Diaries<\/b>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cwtv.com\/shows\/the-vampire-diaries\">TheCW<\/a>: Excellent! I am so in love with this show.&nbsp; I can&#8217;t help but be wishing for a little Damon\/Elena-goodness&#8230;&nbsp; Caroline and Tyler are entertaining.&nbsp; Stefan and Nic\/Klaus and their 20s storyline was very cool.<\/li>\n<li><b>Fringe<\/b>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fox.com\/fringe\/\">FOX<\/a>: Oh man, this is so good.&nbsp; The Anna Torv scenes with both Olivia and Fauxlivia are effortless, I can feel the difference between the characters.&nbsp; Seth Gabel is fabulous.&nbsp; But Peter&#8230; where&#8217;s my Pacey?!&nbsp; My only complaint is that I can&#8217;t watch it in real time on Friday nights because E games all evening!<\/li>\n<li><b>Hawaii Five-0<\/b>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cbs.com\/shows\/hawaii_five_0\/\">CBS<\/a>: Wow, this show really came back strong.&nbsp; I&#8217;ve got E watching too and he didn&#8217;t watch the end of the first season.&nbsp; I did miss a few eps and so the whole Larissa O storyline is a little foggy.&nbsp; I gasped outloud at James Marsters in the first ep, I hadn&#8217;t been spoiled on that!<\/li>\n<li><b>Castle<\/b>, <a href=\"http:\/\/abc.go.com\/shows\/castle\">ABC<\/a>: When crying off and on through a season premiere, I know it is one I hugely am connected to.&nbsp; Excellent.&nbsp; Really want the characters to get back to those all-important words from the finale, but enjoying the ride in the meantime. <\/li>\n<li><b>Glee<\/b>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fox.com\/glee\/\">FOX<\/a>: I&#8217;m not finding myself connecting to the storylines right&nbsp; away &#8211; a lot of new characters were introduced in the first ep, and then the focus on just West Side Story isn&#8217;t something I&#8217;m familiar with, so I miss some of the broader storylines.&nbsp; But enough is good that I&#8217;m glad to watch it.<\/li>\n<li><b>Big Bang Theory<\/b>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cbs.com\/shows\/big_bang_theory\/\">CBS<\/a>\/<b>How I Met Your Mother<\/b>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cbs.com\/shows\/how_i_met_your_mother\/\">CBS<\/a>: these shows go together in my eyes, both very entertaining and it&#8217;s fun to watch them in real time versus on dvd after the fact &#8211; I don&#8217;t have to be careful about spoilers with them for once!&nbsp; Storylinewise, BBT: I&#8217;m quite tired of Priya even when she&#8217;s not on the screen.&nbsp; And HIMYM, I loved Barney and Robin dancing.&nbsp; I&#8217;m so interested to see if the storyline with Victoria goes any further.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Terra Nova: still deciding, only seen one ep so far.&nbsp; Same with Hart of Dixie, one episode isn&#8217;t quite enough to decide.&nbsp; Pan Am seems pretty generic &#8211; the sisters are interesting.&nbsp; <\/p>\n<p>House is coming this week and I really don&#8217;t care.&nbsp; E will have to convince me to watch it, although the TiVo is set to record.&nbsp; Grimm, Once Upon a Time, Chuck, and Bones are all still coming either the end of October or very beginning of November in the case of Bones.<\/p>\n<p>and that&#8217;s the story!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The fall tv season is in full swing and my thoughts were more than 140 characters of Twitter!&nbsp; Beware, spoilers are throughout for the season to date in all of my notes!&nbsp; My full&#46;&#46;&#46;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-53","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-entertainment"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kadyellebee.com\/kdlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/53","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kadyellebee.com\/kdlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kadyellebee.com\/kdlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kadyellebee.com\/kdlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kadyellebee.com\/kdlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=53"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/kadyellebee.com\/kdlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/53\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kadyellebee.com\/kdlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=53"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kadyellebee.com\/kdlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=53"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kadyellebee.com\/kdlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=53"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
