Baby Searchin'

Is exactly what Jax will be doing on Sons of Anarchy tonight. Before I digress into the show, I want to proclaim my excitement for the start of the Fall TV season. I am rather pumped for returning shows and one that is just kicking off. So here is the rundown.

Monday - How I Met Your Mother remains must see viewing for this guy, despite a lack-luster previous season. But Jason Segel keeps me comin' back

Tuesday - Sons of Anarchy is my new favorite program. I watched the pilot when it premiered and set it aside. Well, I am here to atone and tell everyone I was wrong. The show is full of badassery and some of the best writing on TV. I finished up season 2 on DVD in a flurry, and await 9 PM tonight to see them IRA bastards get their comeuppance.

Wednesday - Terriers is a new show on FX about some sort of tandem of lawmen. I don't know much, but I do know it comes from Shawn Ryan who was behind The Shield. And I never discount F/X. Along with AMC, they are the only basic cable station who brings it consistently.

Thursday - The inevitable night of doom with lots of awesome TV. Community is on NBC at 7 and looks to continue from an awesome 1st season. However, they have stiff competition from CBS, attempting their first Thursday night comedy block in nearly 20 years. They lead off at 7 with The Big Bang Theory, which is good, but panders a bit like Two and a Half Men. I will watch though, because it is very solid and perpetuates the notion that nerds are lame and hence very funny. Then at 9 PM F/X hits you with It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia. The show continues to get wackier, which can be a detriment, but the original guys are back to writing the bulk of the episodes. And count me excited to see Danny Devito in a Spider-man costume for a Halloween Episode.

Friday, Saturday, and Sunday don't matter to this guy, but I will throw out the one new show that I will try and catch. The Walking Dead on AMC. A 6 part, graphic novel inspired, zombie opus that debuts on Halloween night. I like zombie movies, but they tend to be 90 minutes of gore. I'm excited for 6 hours to delve into character development and of course, some gore. If you haven't seen the trailer, google that nonsense. It's awesome.

I realize I am leaving things out like South Park and the like, but these are the main shows I will focus on. Because I like zombies, biker gangs, and physicists. Look out for my review of Sons of Anarchy tomorrow, hoping to become a weekly staple.
