PILOT WATCH 2009
so I have decided that I am going to not only list, but write a little review on all of the pilots I am fortunate enough to get to have this year!
The list/reviews will grow as I watch them, and please feel free to comment (to my reviews themselves) with any questions or comments!
I figure with my unique position to actually see these before they air (or even some that won't at all!) I can offer a bit of my own insight and review of the shows that you might just find yourself loving come fall! (or spring)
In the comments below, I will post my own thoughts on each pilot, and give it a 'star' rating (1-5).
oo1. Caprica; SciFi (status: ordered to series)
oo2. V; ABC (status: ordered to series)
oo3. Human target; FOX (status: ordered to series)
oo4. Vampire Diaries; CW (status: ordered to series)
oo5. Modern Family; ABC (status: ordered to series)
oo6. Melrose Place; CW (status: ordered to series)
oo7. Body Politic; CW (status: picked up)
oo8. Community; NBC (status: ordered to series)
oo9. Romantically Challenged; ABC (status: picked up)
o10. Happy Town; ABC (status: ordered to series)
o11. Empire State; ABC (status: picked up)
o12. The Good Wife; CBS (status: ordered to series)
o13. Eastwick; ABC (status: ordered to series)
o14. Limelight; ABC (status: dead)

I have been thinking about doing this for a while, and now, I have finally come around to actually you know, doing it. As we are about to embark on the 2009 Fall TV schedule (or I guess we already have started, haven't we?) I was pondering the pilots that I've watched, the ones that have disappointed and others that have surprised, and I thought that it might be helpful, or at least entertaining, to give you guys a run down of the TOP 5 new shows of the 2009-2010 season that I feel strong enough to recommend to each of you all. Now I'll do something else for the midseasons, because those are always tricky, but these five (with a couple of honorable mentions) are ones I've watched, and have either been really pleased, or definitely see potential in. I hope this is helpful, as I think I'll have fun writing it.
I start here, but say that I am leaving TWO off this list, because I feel that they go without saying, you should watch them. Glee is number one, which, if you haven't watched it yet? JUMP ON THE BANDWAGON NOW. It is charming, hilarious, and just all around fantastic. Number two, of course, is The Vampire Diaries! Not only is this probably the only good drama the CW is churning out this year, but I will give you my personal word that the episodes only get better. And plus, you all are going to watch because you love me and want me to keep a job right? ...right?
so anyway, without further ado...

So um. I came home and there was a guy in the apartment building next to me blasting his music, and he was just chilling on his balcony all creepy-like, drinking wine. I was like, whatever.
The music right now? for this middle-aged man?
My Heart Will Go On. By Celine Dion.
Oh yes creeper next door, I am judging you.

Amended lesson from Taken: Do NOT let your daughter go to Paris with Katie Cassidy. Nor to a destination wedding.

Little boy Losey just arrived at 10:03am. He was born at 8 pounds, 1 ounce - and my sister had him WITHOUT anesthesia! He came so fast she didn't have time, lol. Mom and baby are doing awesome, and apparently he looks just like Cheyenne did when she was born. Still no name yet, I can't wait to see him!
And I am running on 4 hours of sleep so ... I am probably not even comprehending everything right now, lol.
Quote of the day goes to Cheyenne: "You are so a dork Aunt Daphne!"
But gawd this child breaks my heart. She was telling me about how she's going to be a good big sister, and she said she has to teach him not to drink bad things, and she said "I say my prayers so my daddy won't drink anymore. that's my wish. maybe if I buy him a new hat, then he won't drink anymore." OH MY GODS THIS CHILD. She is four years old, and ridiculously bright.
