fall tv- what to watch, and the hits and misses

New Post

with what little time we have to watch tv whether it be school work, taking care of the kids, working, etc we want to watch the best shows... with so many new ones coming out this fall and many returning, how do you decide?

ringer- SPOILERS BEWARE!!! sarah michelle gellar returns after a long retirement to play twins Siobhan and Bridget. Siobhan is the wealthy one with the seemingly perfect and idyllic life. (Or to those who just saw the commerical for the pilot episode the one with her hair in a bun) Bridget is the alcoholic ex-stripper on the run who is so embarassing that Siobhan hasn't even told her husband she has a sister. So when Siobhan kills herself during a family reunion Bridget takes the tragedy as an advantage to stay alive. Yet, she finds out someone is not only trying to kill her, but someone is after her sister as well. It brought in the most viewers for the 18-34 age range for the cw in 3 years! But it isn't just the buffy fans as the premiere episode proved she has made a comeback stronger than ever and I am eager to report on the twists and turns of this up and coming hit show. 5 out of 5 stars.

The secret circle: SPOILERS!!! the lightning storm moment was cheesy, the raindrops was romantic. This show is hard to tell. Cassie goes to live with her grandmother after her mother dies from a fire induced by magic. Cassie then finds out she is a witch and her father among others was involved in a secret circle which is now practicing again, and trying to recruit her to be the 6th and final member. Her mother had whisked her away from this life to keep her safe but now she has choices to make. Some characters prove to be villains, but Faye is just the wild-child unpredictable. Played by Phoebe Tonkin (From the little known show H20) she plays the carefree, reckless Faye Chamberlin. But Britt Robertson (From cancelled show Life Unexpected) proves that even with a lack luster story line she can still outshine the rest of the cast in her sleep. Still too soon to say because its premiere didn't grab my attention like ringer. Will keep you updated, but I would give it another episode or two before grabbing the remote.
