Tonight NBC rolls out Must See Thursday with the 1 Hour premieres of My Name is Earl, The Office, and ER. Of the three, I only watch ER. My Name is Earl is woefully unfunny and I am too much of a fan of the original Office to really enjoy the US Version. I'm looking forward to last years best new comedy 30 Rock which premieres next week with Jerry Seinfeld.
As well as CBS releasing Survivor: China, C.S.I, and Without A Trace. A night of mediocre drama if there ever was one.
Last night brought Private Practice, which I was looking forward to but did not watch yet.
I did however watch the premieres of Boston Legal and Reaper yesterday. Boston Legal was fantastic as usual. Again proving why it is one of the best shows on television.
Reaper, not so much. I must be missing something because I can't seem to understand why this is getting such rave reviews. At the same time, I can't really put my finger on what exactly I didn't like about it. Maybe it was the music. It seemed a bit...off. The cast was barely okay with the exception of the two main leads, Bret Harrison and Tyler Labine, who were very funny and spot on throughout the episode. Ray Wise did okay as the devil, I just didn't buy it. I didn't buy any of it to be honest. It was funny sure, but I think the show is missing something. I just can't seem to words to what it is...The ridiculous posters and ads don't help. Who approved that font? It's terrible.
Ill give it a couple more views before I make a final verdict but so far its one of the weaker shows that have premiered
Reaper needs Joss Whedon.
