TV updates

V premiers this Tuesday on ABC (watch the first nine minutes of the pilot here: http://www.tvguide.com/News/Watch-Minutes-ABCs-1011206.aspx). I loved the original miniseries and have great expectations for the new version!

Scrubs returns on Dec 1 with two episodes, Better off Ted returns the following week to share the hour. (Remember this is a reengineered scrubs taking place in the medical school with Turk and Dr. Cox as the only two returning full time cast members – however, all the other regulars have agreed to make some appearances.)

NBC has ordered 6 additional episodes of Chuck – meaning they plan on it returning early next year instead of next March as originally scheduled. YAY!

Finally, this week we got our first look at trailers for 2 eagerly awaited Winter shows (the two MOST eagerly awaited shows) LOST and 24 – The LOST trailer was a complete non event (watch it here: http://popwatch.ew.com/2009/10/30/lost-season-6/) no new footage at all. Of course without telling us anything it did remind us how much we miss the show and how much we’re anticipating the final season. The 24 trailer (watch it here: http://www.tvguide.com/News/24-Bauer-York-1011345.aspx) does include scenes from the new season, or as we refer to it Jack’s next day from hell – this time he’s in NY and trying to retire so he can spend time with his daughter and granddaughter – I’m sure you can figure out how well that works out.

As always, let me know what you think in the comments section.

Separate is not equal

Election day is Tuesday, while I have an opinion on all the items on the ballot (I know, you’re all shocked) the most important item is Proposition 1 – The fact that no state has yet upheld the right of all people to marry is a disgrace to our country. If you are in Maine, please vote and vote no on 1.
