Enough of all the butt-kissing already. Except for a few exceptions (e.g. Pushing Daisies, Samantha Who?), most shows have already had a chance to give us their first and second impressions. Some premieres dazzled, while others simply fizzled. Several weeks in—which new shows do you still plan on watching?
Which series did you immediately embrace or cast off? Were there any that started fresh then quickly spoiled? Are you still holding out hope for others? Here’s how my fall season panned out:
Immediate Faves:
Pushing Daisies
Gossip Girl
Dirty Sexy Money
Reaper
Flawed but Still Likeable:
Chuck
Gave It a Second Shot, Didn’t Like It Either Time:

Lowest Tivo Priority:
Private Practice
Back To You
Kitchen Nightmares

Cavemen
