Fall TV!!!

Fall is my favorite season, hands down!  I love the crisp cool air, colorful trees, clothes, and scents!  I also love that all of the new Fall TV shows start!  I used to watch a lot of the new shows because I didn't want to miss out... but now with limited time (toddlers are busy) I've found myself waiting to see what's good and going back to watch it.  I also am finding myself watching more sitcoms-- thirty minutes is a much more manageable time commitment-- even though they used to drive me nuts.  I still hate laugh tracks!!!  

New Girl is definitely my favorite new show from last year.  I find it hilarious and it makes me happy!  In an agreement with the bestie... she requested I start watching the new season of Once Upon a Time in return for her tuning in to the new season of New Girl.  Last night I watched the recap of the first season and the first episode of season 2.  Oh man was that confusing!  What did I like???  It was beautiful... the costumes, the scenery, the people.  It felt like I was watching a huge movie production.  It was very creative and I found myself thinking... how do they come up with this stuff?  And there are plenty of love stories... that did pull me in.  What didn't I like??? I'm not sure I can get into fantasy.  I never liked Harry Potter or Twilight.  I don't get into any of the vampire stuff that everyone is talking about.  I do like the Hunger Games but in my mind... that could totally happen.  It is kind of already where our society is heading.  I just don't like "make believe".  But I'm going to continue to watch because I figure it might grow on me.  And it will make the bestie happy... and if the bestie is happy, everyone is happy.  

Grey's Anatomy is back but will never be the same. Why, Grey's, why?  McSteamy was my favorite... and now he is gone... and that makes me so sad!  It was bad enough that he lost Lexi... oh well... I guess they are together now :)  I've decided if Owen and Christina can't work out their issues I may be unable to watch.  I'm sure they will miss me.

Real Housewives of Whatever.  I've been a fan since Bravo was available in the Cincinnati area.  I don't know how much longer I can take it though.  It really stresses me out.  And I want to shake those people sometimes and scream "I'd like to give you some REAL problems!".  How about you donate more of your money to charity instead of all that plastic surgery, spray tans, and hideous clothes.  

I'm excited about Revenge being back on.  But I still have three episodes to catch up on from last season.  See what I mean about no time?  

Brianna has her favorite shows as well... but I'm not really sure how their seasons work... mainly because I don't know that they have seasons.  I have about 15 Mickey Mouse Clubhouse episodes on my DVR in addition to a couple Barney (her new favorite), Elmo, and Doc McStuffins (my new favorite) episodes.  These shows hold her attention for maybe five minutes but a lot of times we have them on in the background while she plays and she dances when there is music.  

There is a downside to Fall tv... other than not having enough time... and that would be that Fall and October coincide.  This means that you have to be careful when you turn on the tv... scary movies and shows are all over the place!  This isn't good for a girl that is scared of everything and has night terrors.  They should just make a scary channel that everything scary is on... that way it would be easier to avoid.  Don't see that happening!  I'm kind of obsessed with Dateline and even that scares me!  

What is everyone else watching?
