DVR on Overdrive

The fall tv season is kicking off...and with it, my DVR will start to be on overdrive. Have to kick off some Between the Lions, Backyardigans and Mickey Mouse clubhouse to make room for The Unit, The Office, Criminal Minds, My name is Earl, Survivor, Lost and Always Sunny in Philidelphia.

Also have to throw in the Bachelor...this still falls in the project runway corallary - in that I get sucked in watching this every time around, except that unlike project runway there is nothing remotely creative about the contestants. Basically this is girls gone wild for the stay at home set. Like the first episode where some girl in a house of random girls decides it would be a good idea to get in the hot tub and tell the bachelor she thinks he should take his pants off. Good times. And on a realted note, why is the bachelor not sponsored by this company yet?

Also caught the first two nights of dancing with the stars. Another show that amazes me by its ability to just suck you in. My parentals were here and they are hooked...so it was on the tube, nothing I could do. Now that they are gone, dancing will probably not be heard from again.

Top off all the new seasons with the baseball playoffs that will soon be upon us...my first foray into that sport again since the astros were eliminated in july. Football heating up with conference play in college and a fun cowboys team to watch. Even have a chance of having a decent texans team this year.

Too bad all I ever have time to do is work. At least I don't have to write any 20 page papers about the utopia's in childrens lit. And at least the DVR will be happy.

We're hippies and cancelled cable, but the rabbit ears provide the Office which can't be missed. Please dont ever metion dancing with the stars again! I dont think I've watched baseball since last year when the Cards (?) won the WS. Playoffs are good though. Baseball is like a soap opera. Season is way to long and you can just pick it up in the playoffs. Caboys (Jerry Jones voice) are fun indeed. I'm a Romosexual for sure.

I'm just as excited about the new season - but your blog leaves me wondering IF you COULD write a paper on Uptopia lit? I think I'll leave the papers to Jodi too! Love, Debbie
