I'm very excited for Chuck and Life tonight. I hope Life sticks. I really enjoyed it last season.

Life was decently solid...though a bit predictable, the titular character is so good.

Life's really about the characters. It's nothing ground breaking from a plot standpoint.
But Crewes and his financial advisor are just fantastic characters, and the partner isn't bad either.

if by "isn't bad" you mean "triple cute"....then yes, she "isn't bad".

I wasn't speaking to her attractiveness. She's a former Cowboys cheerleader, btw.

Life is SERIOUSLY getting screwed in the scheduling this year. It makes no sense. Monday, the Friday, then Monday, then Friday. Huh??!?!?!?

Well, they're trying to help it out by putting it behind Heroes for two weeks. But it's strange to have four new episodes in two weeks. Seems like you'd just show it behind Heroes for two weeks then shift it to its normal slot. New episodes on Monday AND Friday is weird.

Chuck was excellent last night. It was the same...they didn't try to change anything really. And that's good. I'm not a fan of change.

Yeah I thought Chuck was great last night.
I need Life to hurry up and move to Fridays, my Mondays are too packed.

Just added Life to my DVD queue. BTW, in the age of duel tuner DVR's why does it matter when a show comes on?

My wife wanted to record The Terminator show, How I met your Mother, Chuck (even though we were watching it) and I wanted to flip back and forth from MNF.
Needless to say, there were DVR issues.

Oh ok. I'm the exact opposite. I don't watch anything live...can't stand commercial breaks. It's why I almost never post in game day threads.

Oh, don't misunderstand, I don't watch anything live either. But I still tend to watch the shows on the night I record them, or like to anyway. And last night there so much tv that the wife and I usually watch that I was ready to go to sleep before we finished watching it all.

Dirno, i agree - I rarely watch a show the same night it's on... Watched Heroes last night, but that's an exception... I try to watch LOST the same night as well.
Anyway, this season i will have some conflicts where even a dual tuner won't help (mainly Mondays and Thursdays). So thank goodness i have two TiVo HDs. Allows me to record up to 4 shows at the same time, and i can transfer shows between my bedroom and Living Room and watch them where i want.

Chuck was really, really good. It's one of the few shows that hasn't disappointed. It's almost always at a high level.

Amen. Commercials make my head want to explode. The ability to fast-forward them after recording is a godsend.

I think another picture of the chick in Chuck is necessary.

That said, the networks are really starting to pay attention to On-Demand/DVR usage stats, so if folks season-pass or record individual episodes of good, sci-fi niche shows like T:SCC, it really does up the odds that those kinds of shows will be able to stay on the air, even if they don't garner Lost-caliber broadcast ratings...

I liked that they broke their formula already this week. There was no "fringy" mystery for which they had to use an even more "fringy" science to figure out the mystery.
And that bald dude was cool.

Chuck was definitely enjoyable. Like you guys said - it's not very funny, it's not great action or drama. But it's a very good mix of comedy, action, and a little drama. How dumb is the CIA though? They didn't think to double-check a crucial item that had been in enemy hands?
So far, my new favorite show is "the mentalist". Horrible title, but the pilot was VERY good (which is rare these days) and Simon Baker is VERY good and very smooth. I was wary of the show cause it sounded like it was a rip-off of Psych, except without the comedy. But it's its own show. Again, very good.

Just got done watching the newest episode of Mad Men last night on demand.
That is a very well-written show and the characters have a ton of depth. It's almost eerily well-written in today's copy and remake everything society.

I should be watching the Office right now.
I am not watching The Office right now. So I hope the 4 people in America that haven't made up their minds yet get something out of all of that non-event tonight, because...I should be watching The Office right now.
