With a new school year comes the start of a new fall television season, and while I'm well aware that I should be spending less time in front of the tube, internally, I am charged with supporting the legacy that is Friends. So, this past Thursday, I watched the first episode of Joey. It was actually pretty funny, so my Friends spot has been successfully filled. Then, for good measure, I watched The Apprentice for the first time. Badly scripted at times, but overall, fabulous.
Here's my version of the TV Guide:
Monday:
All My Children
Tuesday:
All My Children
Scrubs
24 (once it starts in October)
American Idol (I think I've got til January)
Sex in the City (reruns on TBS)
Wednesday:
All My Children
Sex in the City
* They're just repeats of Tuesday's episodes, but sometimes for fun I watch them twice
Thursday:
All My Children
Joey
The Apprentice
Friday:
All My Children
What Not to Wear
It's not like I have a ton of free time on my hands - Tuesdays and Wednesdays are now spent in Chicago for class, so my VCR is working overtime. And when I AM home, valuable studying time is wasted catching up on episodes of shows I should have watched in their first run. But Carrie just broke up with Mr. Big for the second time! How can I stop watching now? Also, you just don't realize how hard it is to keep up with a daily soap opera. Thank goodness I have SoapNet: "The New Way to Watch Soaps." They're going to start airing Melrose Place tomorrow night.
Once grad school's done, I'll finally be able to concentrate on the really important things in life.
