What to Watch Wednesdays This Fall

I find jokes about how Wednesday is hump-day, or how we're "halfway there" irksome. So lets get right to it, shall we?

WEDNESDAY

The Middle ABC, premieres 9/22
Where we left: I won’t watch this show.

What’s Next: I will never watch this show. I love the janitor from “Scrubs” as much as the next guy, but I hate Patricia Heaton, and my rage is unwavering. I choose to simply assume this crappy show continues to suck as much as its crappy catering lead actress. Oh and BTW? I’m not the only one. Google Hate Patricia Heaton. You’ll see.

Glee-full Big Losers Running Wilde - What's on Tuesday

"There's always something good on TV. It's been my motto since I was a little kid; I'm sticking to it." ~Everwood

Tuesday Television is always a mixed bag - its never been considered the TV wasteland that is Friday night, but it doesn't have the consistent, hour-to-hour, must-see appeal of Thursday nights either.

Regardless, there's always something on! And some of it's actually worth watching!

Sounds like Someone Has a Case of the Mondays…

Mondays are always hard, particularly in the fall when many of us have spent Saturday and Sunday in a pleasant day-drinking football-watching haze. Monday TV, then, should be easy. Light entertainment from 8-10, followed by shows that you wont necessarily cry over if you fall asleep during.


Here’s a rundown of what’s gonna be on, and in a move I borrowed from Television Without Pity, I’m detailing what and how I’ll be watching!

To Everything There is a Season

Labor Day has dawned. The kiddies are back in class where, doubtlessly, history is being neglected. Such are the signifiers that summer is truly at an end. But fear not, my fellow beach bunnies and boozy brunchers. For while one amazing season ends, another, more glorious one is upon us: FALL TV. 

Like children on a school bus lurching back to class, we are filled with anticipation and excitement, and more than a little dread. Who knows what the first day will bring? Will we still like our old favorite shows, or will they have changed over the summer? Should we give that weird show from last year another chance? What if all the new shows are TERRIBLE?

Much like back in school, I have found that scheduling is the key to a successful new year. Taking the time to develop a plan now will prevent you from feeling overwhelmed, or from missing something fantastic (COMMUNITY, premiering on NBC on September 23rd @ 8pm/7pm central!).

The best part is, I’ve done the research for you. I’m up on the spoilers for returning shows! I’ve read the descriptions and reviews for the new ones! I’m the senior who knows all the school secrets! 

Over the next couple days I will be providing an in-depth review of the 2010 Fall Television Season. Not just what will be on, but what to watch (and even how to watch it!).

Here’s to a new, and hopefully not-too-crappy, TV year!

“It’s those TV Networks Marge! One quality show after another, each one fresher and more brilliant than the last. If they only stumbled once, just gave us 30 minutes to ourselves…but they won’t! They won’t let me live!”
