There are still a couple shows on deck that I'm really waiting for (30 Rock, Friday Night Lights) but I figured that now that the bulk of fall TV has started I should post my thoughts and we can start the TV chatter. I currently am watching WAY too many TV shows right now, but I'm sure at least one will be canceled and I'll probably get tired of some as well. Here's a quick rundown.
How I Met Your Mother - Pretty strong start. Needs a bit more Marshal.
Heroes - I wish I knew how to quit you.
90210 - Yes, I am addicted to teen soap operas. I just can't help myself.
Melrose Place - Really started with a bang and I am a big fan of Stephanie Jacobsen (Terminator: Sarah Connor Chronicles, Battlestar Galactica: Razor) so I'll keep watching.
Glee - I don't want to love this show, but I can't help myself. It's funny, well written, the music is great, and Jane Lynch is a comedy genius. My pick for best new show, which means it will probably be canceled.
FlashForward - Okay, I was wrong, this is the best new show and is a great way to fill that Lost void in my heart, especially the one that will be there when it's gone for good.
SNL Weekend Update Thursday - A nice little dose of pretty much the best segment on the show.
Parks and Recreation - Off to a great start this season, hopefully it can build an audience. Aubrey Plaza is awesome.
Community - Chevy Chase, I'm sorry I doubted your greatness, but hopefully you understand.
The Office - My old roommate Curtis thinks the show has lost all grip on reality. I honestly don't care.
Fringe - Lots of crazy goings on, definitely has that X-Files vibe, which I think is a good thing. Hopefully they'll keep the momentum going.
Vampire Diaries - Just might be my first drop of the season. After three episodes the only thing that's kept me interested is Maureen from Freaks and Geeks.
Dollhouse - Sad to see that not even Jamie Bamber and Alexis Denisof guest appearances could help boost the ratings. I'll stand by you, Joss.
The Simpsons - Best season opener in years. Seriously. If they can't keep it up, they need to just hire Seth Rogen or something.
Mad Men - Still the best show on TV. I'm loving the insane goings-on this season.
Entourage - My guilty pleasure. I've really enjoyed Gary Cole this season.
Bored to Death - Actually, put this in a three way tie with Glee and FlashForward for best new show. Schwartzman and Galifianakis are fantastic but it's Ted Danson who really steals the show.
Curb Your Enthusiasm - In just two episodes this season LD and crew have shown why this is the funniest show on television right now and possibly ever. I can't imagine what will happen once the Seinfeld cast joins the mix.
So there you have it, my brief synopsis of what I'm watching. Add in football and some wrestling (yeah, I'm still on that kick too) and that is pretty much my sad life. What are you guys watching? Feel free to chime in with your thoughts on new shows and the shows you can't stop watching.

I guess we just have different tastes. I love Joel McHale, but Chevy Chase is what makes that show for me. 
Last week's The Office was not one of my favorites. Sometimes Michael is so out of control that it's hard to understand why they haven't fired him and had him committed. 
You should see Ric when he watches Community. I have to pause the tv every time Chevy Chase says anything, because Ric's busting up laughing.
I think Curtis has the same issue that Danny has and also that Dwight is now basically a cartoon character. He's one of those BBC snobs though, so whatever.
Danny, I think they've (sort of) explained that away by the fact that despite his ineptitude at management, his branch has the best sales numbers and when push comes to shove he can get things done. 
Heroes - Why would you want to quit? It's candy; nothing of substance, probably bad for you, but it's just a delight. Nothing says Happy monday like screaming obscenities at that dumbfuck Peter Patrelli. What a douche.
Netflix has the season premiere of Dexter. I forgot that one. I love the show. John Lithgow this season is insanely creepy.
No House. I only have so many hours in the day and in the beginning I passed because it didn't scream out to me. 
The thing is, Brendo, people are stupid. Because there are two things in the media with singing in them, they are presumed to be the same . . . but they are foolish. And Glee is surprisingly awesome -- and certainly not tailored to a tween demographic.
Glee will have a second season. I heard it on PTI, so it must be true.
