But it irritates me when they pull one of their 'To Be Continued' endings... grrrrr! not nice! They started doing that more often last season. This 'device' does NOT have a 'good effect' on me and my roommate.... psses us off enough that we almost want to say 'heck, forget it!' It's becoming cliché.... (TV used to use it in the 'olden days') Too much of that is a turn-off!

NCIS-LosAngeles, &

PERSON OF INTEREST--

We record these during the week, then watch on the weekends. Can hardly wait!

HAWAII 5-0!
Always loved that show... since I was a kid!
I think they have the BEST theme song!! (Love those trumpets!)

Didn't like 'car commercials' until I started watching this show. They made it actually fun to see cars-- from Chevrolet!

ELEMENTARY (Sherlock Holmes)
recording for later

BIG BANG THEORY is always great!

-9/26

Had to 'take a break' from watching politics right now... but want to acknowledge these--

sincere thanks go out to msnbc's Rachel Maddow,
for her sensibleness, thorough work, (and sometimes almost-snarky humor... love it~~ so 'healing' to me)!

Castle started with a two-parter. It was fairly typical Castle-style.

Elementary and Parks & Recreation both brought us to London in their premiers. Both shows ended really strong. Sherlock's brother blew up Sherlock's stuff at the end of Elementary, and Ron Swanson found his favorite scotch-maker on an island in Scotland.

Blacklist started a little weak in my opinion. The imagery in the commercials lead us to believe it would be better. There were holes in the plausibility of rather key things.

It's Always Sunny started pretty well in its new home.

Boardwalk Empire has started pretty good. Some of the developments have been head-scratchers, but I'll give the show some leeway.

Hello Ladies wasn't great.

Mirage,

Yeah, Elementary was good. His brother is charming in his own way. I wasn't sure where they were going with that. Jonny Lee Miller is turning into one of those actors where I like everything he's in. Lucy Lui is a Sag, so what's not to love?

I watched Blacklist last night. Better. The story was pretty interesting, and it was a nice twist. There's still a lot that isn't plausible. It is cool about the elderly ladies, yes, but at the same time, the man is kind of forced to override them, and cave to the anti-hero's demands. I do enjoy the spy-like quality of it. I like the trap she set for her husband. I thought that was smart.
