Cranking Up the Television

It's that time again, the time when new television shows try to make their mark on the psyche of the American public, and when shows disappear without any warning because they simply weren't good enough to stay on the air. Holly and I like this time of year when we can see all the new previews and try to decide which shows we might watch the first couple of episodes of to see if we want to stick with them.

Right now, I'm excited about a new show called The Mentalist, which I watched the premiere of last night. I'm hoping it makes the cut because it's definitely a show I can get into watching. It features a detective who has uncanny powers of observation which he uses to solve crimes. A very good show, I recommend it.

I'm also stoked for Knight Rider to finally make its appearance after watching the teaser movie almost a year ago. Some people say the show won't be all that good, but I like that kind of stuff, so I'll probably watch it anyways.

As usual, we will be having The Office parties each Thursday evening, and I'll be watching Big Bang Theory and a smattering of other shows that are back for another season.
