New Shows same as the Old Shows
So it is official. I am an ole man. As I turned on The Wheel, or Wheel of Fortune, Holly says "how old are we?" Then later on in the evening after Jay Leno we kept it on NBC and watched the 10 o clock news. All I need to do is to keep it on the weather channel constantly and delve a little further into senile dementia. I kind of like having Leno on at 9. That way eventually I could go to bed at 10:30 and make my transformation complete. Now that I have a kid I could relive my youth vicariously through him.
Something I noticed though is that Conan has the same jokes as Leno. I wonder if they think it is a completely different audience. Since it is new TV week I started watching some new shows. The modern family seems to be funny. I think Ed O Niel is pretty funny, but he has aged alot. I wonder if he still plays squash with my sister's husbands father? Cougartown afterwords was like a bunch of women with boy toys. So I skipped that one. Even the new Monday comedy seemed to be more girl orientated, so I skipped that one too. I watched an episode of Glee the other day. That was interesting, but corny, and rather geared towards tweens as well. Then there are the new hospital dramas, mercy, which I will not watch. We started watching some cop show where the unsolved cases of Jane Doe's were researched by a ragtag group of misfits. It is totally unbelievable, so after a half an hour we flipped to Leno.
We did start on the new season of the Biggest Loser. This time there are alot more over 400 pound people. It still should be called the biggest cryer. If I ever auditioned for that show I would make sure to cry alot. I think I might tivo that Flash Forward show tonight. I still watch the Office and started watching Community cause any show with Chevy Chase should be funny. I guess when you have a baby and quit working on websites the only thing left to do is watch TV. That and taking care of the baby keeps us busy. What kind of shows do you like?
