House M.D

One of the main shows I was looking forward to this Fall was the return of House M.D. Hugh Laurie is one of the few actors that is on television right now that knows what he's doing season after season. At the end of the last season, we have a bit of a happy ending of sorts where he and his love interest Cuddy get together at the end of the episode and he decides not to take Vicodin. 

This season starts up on a note that you're not very used to with this show. Everything is happy go lucky. House isn't being a narcissistic asshole and there really are moments in the show where you wonder "Why would they do this?". I'm hoping that before this show runs me off that it'll come back to the sarcastic humor that its known for. Any thoughts?

Fall TV Looking Better Already

Normally, I am very hesitant about the beginning of Fall. Sometimes your favorite shows come back with the same vigor and formula that you love, while some try to add something new to the mix. With this blog, I hope to keep you updated on a number of shows to look forward to, while I vent about whatever has happened to me. Hopefully, you'll get a laugh and some good information at the same time.

My first pick is the Showtime show Dexter. Before this season, it was one of the best written shows on television, and this season doesn't appear to disappoint. Starting off slow with its season premiere, we get a glimpse of what the main character Dexter Morgan, a serial killer, is like when there really is no emotional mask to put on. The scenes were well chosen, and even if the possibility of romance being hinted between Deb and Quinn is predictable, I expect the show to make up for it with enough blood and body bags to remind us of why we watch in the first place.
