Duh-na-nu-nuh! Duh-na-nu-nuh! Chh! Chh!

Magnet #215 - Beverly Hills

Of course, I watched the original.

Of course, I watch the reruns.

Of course, I am watching the redux.

What I can't figure out is, is 90210:
  1. An homage to the original?
  2. A spoof of the original?
  3. Trying to be to this generation, what the original was to that generation?
  4. Trying to be a serious Spelling-esque drama in its own right?
I suppose the answers don't really matter since The CW picked it up for a full season. That's fine. I'm kind of light in the Tuesday 8pm hour anyway.

Now, if only the 9pm hour would calm down just a bit. I think The Mentalist may fall off the dance card fairly early. I love me some pretty, pretty Simon Baker and Owain Yeoman, but maybe not enough to give up Privileged (my new Gilmore Girls replacement) or Fringe (my new Pacey show). And I've already tiered Greek down to online status.

Ah, Fall TV is the most wonderful time of the year!

Ok. Let's put all these swirling rumors to rest. George is NOT gonna show up in this last season of ER. He's just not.

Except you totally know I'll watch the damn series finale, just in case that damn man decides to prank us again.
Pin It!

Love the post title... knew what you meant immediately!

And the reason you're light in the 8pm hour on Tuesdays is because you don't watch House! ...Which I'm actually not going to recommend you start this season, because it's been disappointing me. First and second seasons were fabulous, though.

When I remember, Tuesday 8 p.m. is NCIS. Mark Harmon? 'nuff said.

Heh. Yep, I've come to the realization that I might watch too much tv.

But then I realized, nope. One can never have enough.
