I know I may be a little late to the party with a blog post on premieres considering it's almost two months after September, but I figured I'd wait to see how everything went before I commented. So far everything went as I predicted: Heroes has given me more questions than answers, Smallville continues to support my belief that it is about time that they hang up their capes, Numb3rs still cannot surpass their amazing third season, and Survivor and The Amazing Race have not surprised me very much in the least...and I couldn't be happier! Besides all of these shortcomings, every one of my favorite shows continues to draw me in week after week to see what happens. Heroes has taken twists and turns like in no other season and now I am questioning everything I ever believed about the people in the show. Smallville may well be on its last legs (I think with everyone jumping ship, this should be the last season for the own good) but even without Lana, Lex, and the original writers, the introduction of Doomsday and the further and quicker development of Clark into Superman makes me want to keep tuning in until the end, whenever that may be. Numb3rs will never surpass the bar they set for themselves in the third season (especially the finale!) but I have come to terms with that and I am now enjoying the fifth season with a gusto. Survivor and The Amazing Race both have their moments this season, but people remain loyal to these shows because of their consistancy: if these two of my favorite reality shows suddenly reversed in the other direction, I might not want to keep watching, but I have already become attached to the new seasons and already have my favorites to win (they won't, but it doesn't stop me from predicting) and those who I want to lose (they'll win...see the irony???). On top of all of this is the added bouns of discovering two new shows: Supernatural and Scrubs. I caught up on all three of the past Supernatural episodes during the past few months and I couldn't be happier with the new season: it's kept me hooked and it's exactly why I picked it up in the first place. Scrubs won't be back for a little while longer, what with the ABC-NBC switch going on, but I am content with watching the seasons on DVD as of now (I'm on the second season). I may be in college now, but that doesn't mean I can't keep up with my shows!
