TV Update

As much as I love the Olympics, I am devastated that they are causing me to go without my regularly scheduled programming. However, since I am sure you all loved my last tv post so much, I am going to take this break to give everyone an update on all of the tv shows (ongoing, recently finished, or upcoming) that I hold near and dear to my heart. Day by day:

mon
Watching
How I Met Your Mother: This show is legen...wait for it...dary. Please refer to my favorite clip from the season: here
The Bachelor: On the Wings of Love: This show is mortifying and, frankly, I don't even know why I watch it. But I do. Let it be known that I am rooting for the villan, Vienna. Just because.
Chuck: Welcome back! Such a great show, season 3 just started back up in January.
Waiting For
Gossip Girl: Won't be back until March 8 :( Until then, might I suggest that you get your Blair Waldorf fix here. Llllloooooovvvveeee it.
Kell on Earth: Starts February 1. Finally someone got smart enough to give Kelly Cutrone her own show.
Rachel Zoe Project: It's been picked up for season 3, but no word yet on when it will air. Love the Zoe and the Brad, but my heart is broken that Tay has left the team :(

tue
Watching
Bad Girls Club: I was skeptical when I first started to watch this show two seasons ago, but was pleased to realize that it's everything I want the Real World to be, and then some. Well done, Oxygen!
Millionaire Matchmaker: Lindsay tweets "Millionaire matchmaker is brilliant. Patti can fix anyone who is willing to listen."
Waiting For
90210: Returns March 9 (Yes, I watch this. And I love it.)
Melrose Place: Returns March 9 (Yes, I also watch this. And I love it, too.)
Lost: Returns for the final season February 2 and OMG I am so excited I can hardly bear it. I'm having a season 5 marathon this weekend to brush up.
Glee: Returns April 13 (although I'd like to request more "Don't Stop Believin"s and fewer "Gold Digger"s. Ok? Thanks)
Tori and Dean: Home Sweet Hollywood: Returns April 5 (don't judge me)
The Hills: Only sort of missing this. Mostly I am fascinated with Heidi's plastic surgery at this point
The City: Love me some Erin. And Whitney's hair.


wed
Watching
Modern Family: Funniest show on tv
Cougar Town: I mean....it's a pretty good way to spend 30 minutes.
Friday Night Lights: (only on Direct TV right now)
Toddlers and Tiaras: I LIVE for this show. Spray tans + flippers + hair pieces = see you on the Jersey Shore in a few years, girls!
The Real World:DC: I shouldn't watch this, but I just can't give up on it. Letting go of the Real World would be like letting go of a piece of me.
Waiting For
America's Next Top Model: Returns March 3. Oh, Tyra...
Real World/Road Rules Challenge: Now THIS is a show I can get behind.
Top Chef: Did anyone else have a huge crush on Michael Voltaggio from last season?

i love your tv posts. they bring back good memories of the college days.

i have to agree with you on several: how i met your mother (SO funny), millionaire matchmaker (patti is my favorite), & i can not WAIT for amazing race (that chick is going to be a disaster & i love it).

Amber P said...

Great post! And I am STILL sad you won't watch True Blood... but would you consider Sons of Anarchy oh and also it's always sunny? Also for your consideration: secret diary of a call girl, united states of Tara, Dexter and weeds.

I wish we could watch tv together, it would be so good. I also just started watching Guiliana and Bill and I have been surprised that I actually like them and find myself smiling while I watch it.

Meggan, your tv posts are my FAVE! and. always leave me wondering why we don't watch tv together more often? finally caught all the way up on mad men. and kind of sad about it. i know what you mean about missing them. oh, betty!
i think you're wrong about taylor, though. she was only bringing them down. imagine how much lighter than air brad will be now?!

...and where do you find the time to watch ALL of these? Loved the clip from 'How I met your mother'. My husband is so embarressed that I love this show. I watch the series when I find it on dvd. I am missing a whole season- Aack!

Glee is still my favorite show. I was sad it wasn't on your to watch list but I'm okay with that because it didn't make your "Still not interested in watching" list.

Hope you're doing well.

what's there to say really? isn't this post a good 65% of what fills up our conversations?

Unknown said...

You put Glee on Tuesday, does it show on Tuesdays?

I'm glad you like it and are watching it, I was worried.
