Has everyone seen all the new & returning shows they have on their DVR’s yet? Do you have a clear favorite in the ‘new show’ category? Only one debuting tonight, but it has a TV Icon as it’s star. Sunday will be huge, so there’s still lots to look forward to.

8pm:
Medium (CBS) Season #7 is “Freaky Friday” all the way! Allison & her middle daughter jolt awake to the same dream. After a brief discussion about a homeless dude, it’s back to bed. Breakfast is a whole different matter… seems Allison is Bridgette & Bridgette is Allison. One goes to work & the other to school… see where this is going? I have spent the summer catching up with this show on late night TV & I’m excited about tonight. I can’t wait to see Joe’s new haircut. *sigh* ….oh & did you know that Patricia Arquette wears her own PJ’s to work for her & Joe’s bedroom scenes AND her voluptuous bosom is bound so she looks less “well endowed”!
Smallville (CW) In it’s 10th season premiere, Lois saves Clark by removing blue(?) kryptonite from him & Jonathan returns to the farm with a message. I don’t get the CW network on my dish, so I’ve never seen this show. I’ve heard that former Lois Lane, Teri Hatcher, will appear this season as, of course, Lois Lane’s mother. This is the show’s final season.
Dateline NBC (NBC) In this two-hour premiere, the disappearance & murder of two young teens, Amber DuBois (14) & Chelsea King (17) are investigated by Keith Morrison. The 31 yr. old sex offender has been convicted of the crime, but there are new developments in the case.

9pm:
CSI: NY (CBS) It’s the show’s 7th season & it’s on a new day & time. Moved from it’s comfy Wednesday night slot, it’s now up against…. not much! …. at least not this week! Next week ABC will debut 2 new shows at 8 & 9pm. Sela Ward joins the cast as former FBI agent Jo Danville & the first thing she does is find a dead body in the crime lab building. Great way to get an early promotion.
Supernatural (CW) The 6th season begins with Sam being released from Hell after forcing the Devil himself back to purgatory. Now he must try to convince Dean to re-join him in fighting EVIL! Monsters, angels & demons (Oh My!) roam across the chaotic landscape since the Apocalypse & there’s only one thing that can get Dean back on track… Grandpa Winchester!
The Good Guys (FOX) This isn’t quite a premiere, but more of a way for FOX to use up the 11 episodes from this summer nightmare of a show. They had actually pulled it early because of it’s dismal ratings. I don’t expect it to even last now. I’m sure there’s a Gordon Ramsey show waiting in the wings… maybe Kitchen Nightmares?

10pm:
Blue Bloods (CBS) The premiere of this new cop show has none other than Tom Selleck & Donnie Wahlberg in it’s lead roles. It’s a family of cops… generations in fact. Mr. Selleck is the head honcho, Police Chief Frank Reagan. Wahlberg is Det. Danny Reagan, his hot-headed son, a veteran of the Iraq war. Grandpa Henry is, of course, a retired cop & daughter Erin is an Asst. DA. Youngest son Jamie is just graduating from the police academy. Where does it go from here? Will it be more cop or more family?
That’s it for a Friday night. I’m excited to see Medium (CBS) again & will record Blue Bloods (NBC). It’s really a good night to catch up on my DVR recordings. I still haven’t watched Hawaii 5-O.
As fro last night…. Community (NBC) was the best comedy. I really enjoyed @#%*! My Father Says (CBS) but I’m a huge William Shatner fan. The Apprentice (NBC) & Project Runway (Lifetime) were by far, my favorites of the night.

Saturday Night Live (NBC) is all-new tomorrow night at 11:30pm with Amy Poehler as the Host. She was a cast member from 2001-2008 when she left to do her own sitcom, Parks & Recreation (NBC). Katy Perry, fresh from her Sesame Street scandal will be the musical guest. Let’s hope they do a spoof of that video!
If you like it, spread it!:

Dateline NBC irritated me. Until one of these shows features Amanda Jones (missing from Hillsboro MO since August 14, 2005…she was one week away from giving birth to her second child, and disappeared without a trace. The baby’s father admits to being the last one to see her, but the case is still unsolved) and/or feature my aunt’s still-unsolved murder, I don’t wanna hear about it. 21 months, and where still waiting. (Yeah…I’m a little bitter.) Last night’s cases were all because the system won’t keep convicted sex offenders in jail where they belong…but that fact took up all of five minutes of the show.
I liked Blue Bloods, and will watch again. It has short term stories wrapped up in an hour, and long-arcs that will probably go a season or two…should the show last, that is.
Make that “we’re still waiting.”
