Welcome, a little late, to the first official week of the 2011 Fall Television Season! Seeing as how network television is basically crystal meth in the form of heavily censored family entertainment, I will likely be watching every new pilot ever. As such, I thought it might be fun to A) make a list of shows I think people should and shouldn't watch so as to be able to share my very strong opinions with someone other than my stuffed gorilla and to B) discuss what the STV community thinks about the new season in one big post. I reserve the right to not watch/review something if I feel that it would likely make me seize violently. Alright, I'll be starting Week 1 with something I am going to call "The Kind Of Good, The CW, and The Unbearably Mediocre". As you may have guessed, I wasn't wildly impressed with what the networks had to offer in their first week.
Hi folks! My name is John and I'm an avid TV watcher and academic. Many of the older articles on this blog were originally cross-posted on SpoilerTV, so this is partly a space for me to archive and keep track of my older writing. I'll be back in 2022 - I plan to cover House of the Dragon, mostly as a writing exercise for myself. It's fun to feel that energy and excitement again!
