TERMINATOR was amazing this week, see my ‘Random Musings’ above this post. For the record, a fantastic contributer Amrie wrote this piece (see byline), not me.

But I have to say if you are going to give any one show above a second chance I would recommend Dirty Sexy Money, yes the sheer amount of rich people behaving badly show trend is taking over the air waves (particularly on the CW) but its obvious this show is the best of that style and with new people behind the scenes and even more promised drama I think you will find what you once loved about Desperate Housewives in this newer soap Im ditching the Hills, Gossip Girl (until the summer when I can catch up), 30 Rock (probably give it a second shot next summer as the past season was a whole lot of nothing for one original die-hard fan of the show) and ER (already behind on LAST season so why start again?)

So far i am not watching any new shows this season (yeah, that's a new one!) and the ones that i am rethinking are : * Heroes: i am giving it a few episodes more. If these plotlines keep up i'm gonna have no problem at all catching up over the summer or when really bored. * Dirty Sexy Money: same problem as everyone i guess. Just not quite grabby as i first thought. * Desperate Housewives: again, things get far too ridiculous and the mistery of the season is just...bleh... * Ugly Betty: This one pains me to admit cause i loved this show, but Daniel's kid annoys me...that whole storyline is helping lots for me to say bye to betty! Willie, Marc and Amanda are keeping it alive for me. I'm happy with Brother's and Sisters so far with the new bro and stuff but Justin and Rebecca together, geez it's still icky! Im sticking with what i have which is not alot really (at least compared to years before) and watching lots of tv on DVD, and proud to say really that haven't felt the need to touch reality tv just yet. It is still not appealing :) Well, i haven’t dropped anything YET…but the list sure is getting filled up quickly.

This week's episode is a step up from the premiere (which really only setup a season that isn't all that different from previous ones), and I think if you just fast-forward over Teri Hatcher you'll find it much more enjoyable.

ANTM is terrible. i understand that and realize that this is half the reason i watch. to make fun of it. as for DH i think the five year jump, while cliche, is great. new conflicts and a clean slate. i love it. i completely agree on Terminator. no interest anymore.

I watched Dirty Sexy Money on and off last season, and I've never been hooked. The previews for this season have done nothing to interest me. The same basically goes for Desperate Housewives. I've enjoyed occasional episodes, especially last season, but this time jump just isn't doing it for me. I watched Terminator's first season since nothing else was on during the strike and it was alright, but I just don't care about it now that the good shows are back on. I'm also generally not going to be watching Gossip Girl, except maybe an episode once in a while. Skins on BBC America is better, and so is One Tree Hill. Two teen shows are enough at one time for me. I agree with you on 3 of these shows. I watched Dirty Sexy Money on and off last season, and I’ve never been hooked.
