New tv shows - yea!! Last week was very exciting for me for this very
reason. Sad? Maybe a little. But if you are nursing a baby, you quickly
discover that you are sitting around a lot while baby eats. I like to
watch tv while nursing because it doesn't require my hands at all. So I
was quite excited to check out some of the new shows and catch new
episodes of my old favorites. Here are my thoughts on the ones I have
watched:
The Goldbergs - I love, love LOVE this one so
far! The show is told from the perspective of a 12 year-old boy who is
documenting his family's life in the 1980s. Think The Wonder Years but
twenty years later - you know, like our lives when we were watching The
Wonder Years (ironic, huh?). In my opinion, it is well-written and fun.
Trophy Wife - This one was a big disappointment for me.
Malin Akerman stars as Kate, the third wife of Brad who has three kids
with his two former wives. I was excited for this one based on the
previews but the show seems incredibly predictable and I was bored. I really expected more, given its cast of familiar faces. I'll be skipping this one going forward.
I'm
also watching The Middle, Modern Family, Nashville and Parenthood.The
Middle and Modern Family are oldies but goodies! So far, the quirky Heck
family has not disappointed me and I am digging Modern Family as much
as ever. Nashville is soap opera-y as usual but I still enjoy it. And
Parenthood is my perennial favorite.
I also recorded Lucky 7
but I couldn't quite get into it. I may give it another shot, though. I
also have Betrayal recorded but haven't watched it yet. What are you
watching this fall? Is there anything you'd recommend?
