I'm not sure about Once Upon a Time....I can see where they're trying to go with it and the concept is very interesting. We'll see about the execution.

I thought the first episode was terrific.

I also give credit that they're trying to do something different.

Yeah, I enjoyed Once Upon a Time more than I thought I would. Do like to see the different shows these days. Love the fact we have some original series like this on regular commercial television and then great shows like The Walking Dead and American Horror Story on cable channels. TV is actually getting better IMO.

Well Scrappy Do the adorable malformed dinosaur made his debut tonight as predicted CC.

I tried to give Terra Nova a chance, time to move on.

Did anyone watch Allen Gregory, the new animated show on Fox? I thought it was pretty funny, very snotty which I like.

Yup, what a pile of poo this show is turning out to be. They better "6'er the plot" faster or this show ends up as dead as the dinosaurs. There is also a need for a more "Disagreeable" character in the show. You know he/she is coming but unfortunately it's happening at network pace, and I'm not talking about the current antagonistic group.

Does anyone care about the characters in this show?

American Horror Story.

I have the same suit used in the show. Very comfortable and popular with the ladies!

This is such a fun show! Thank you Walking Dead for paving the way for the horror genre! I agree with the acting in it, and the directors are giving great direction; right now there are a lot of missing puzzle pieces and just enough of these pieces are presented to keep the viewer interested. I love seeing the 80's movie stars I grew up watching as a kid make their way back! Kick A$$ Jessica Lang! (Just no Sissy Spacek please...)

Fringe - What an inventive way to change or re-vamp the chemistry of the Fringe characters! J.J. Abrams is altering it very much like Star Trek. He created a new reality and new puzzles for us. I love it because the lovey crap was annoying.

Person of Interest - Mikey The Rednecks favorite show . Anyone think this is propaganda to show us the "good side" of Homeland Security monitoring? Great "episodic" show. Love the fight scenes. It's Human Target with more developed or "Interesting" Characters. I've always been a fan of Jim Caviezel.

Homeland - Just viewed episode 1 and it looks interesting but I have not seen enough of it to comment much further except... I enjoyed the boobies!!!! Thank you Morena Baccarin! I think she finally found a show that will last out the storyline!

Grimm - Tuned in expecting crap and I was pleasantly surprised! Too soon to tell but this might be a darker "Buffy" style show. Basically no Joss Whedon witty banter.

Officially gave up on New Girl last night, I gave it a chance, and as cute as the main actress is, she's just someone that I would rather see strangled in her sleep by her roomates as oppossed to her making bizarre sound effects and her inability to say penis.

Her cuteness was overshadowed by her annoyance factor. And the fact that his buddy got all obsessed with viewing his roomates penis was really kinda dumb.

Well, I haven't watched it yet so I can't say, but I doubt it would make me give up on the show. We enjoy it and find it pretty damn funny.

And then the little girl obviously asks "can we keep it?"

Sure honey. You can keep the anklyosaurus, it is just like your puppy back home except it will turn into a two tonne armored car with a sledgehammer on its tail. Fortunately if you train it right on a diet of vegetables, with the occasional piece of rhubarb thrown in (anklyosaurus' loves rhubarb), scrappy do will perform tricks just like a regular house pet.

Terra Nova was worse than the Flames on Tuesday night. And that's saying something.

I'm glad New Girl is back. I find Schmidt to be hilarious. Every line he has is funny.

Hopefully they tone down Jess a bit more. She seems to have toned it down since the first couple ep's, but she gets to be really annoying.

Happy Endings and Once Upon A Time were both picked up for full seasons by ABC yesterday.

Loved it. Jonah Hill's voice suits the kid too.

I liked a lot about the premiere of bones, the relationship between the two characters just seems forced to me.

Why do shows always have to do the whole dating between main characters thing, it doesn't happen in real life.
