Random thoughts: While "only" 10 million people watched the opening night of Heroes, the show runners clearly have hit the ground running. Its clear how they will manage to make some of our "heroes" into "villains" and without a clue as to where it will go. While we are bound to re-visit the future (the opener actually began there) I am sure we will have a cleanup episode from the recent past that should shed light on some of the story threads, especially "Nicky/Jessica/Tracy."
The DVR conflict on Monday night between Heroes, Two and 1/2 Men and Prison Break finally got me off the Prison Break main line. There is hope for me. ON the same note, Terminator: The Sarah Conner Chronicles at the earlier hour is a blessing.
While I am still not happy with "Sweets" as a regular on Bones, it was great to Dr. Addy again. More significantly, I am amazed at how well the writers have kept up the relationship between Bones and Booth. Their banter and chemistry is still spot on.
When is House going to get back to Chase and Cameron, who did not even appear in the last episode? Not only do these characters have nothing to do, but House has added a character?? (actor Michael Weston playing a detective hired to spy on Wilson. Since the rumor is that Hugh Laurie is about to get Kiefer Sutherland money, how can this show afford to go on?
Fringe looks like it is living up to its hype, but the fact that every one of their investigations connects up to Dr. Bishop's past, while most likely not a coincidence, will probably reach a point, ala Lost, where the twisty mythology starts to unravel.
And speaking of Fringe, has anyone noticed the number of The Wire alums that are scoring new shows. Lance Riddick on Fringe, Jamie Hector on Heroes, Amy Ryan on The Office and Tristan Wilds on 90210 (will not and never will watch it). I could have sworn on I also saw Clarke Peters (Lt. Freeman) on previews for Life on Mars.
Smallville and Grey's Anatomy seem to be back in stride. Smallville is transitioning Clark to Metropolis, while Grey's seems to be trying to soften up Yang and Hahn. They can't do anything with Meridith's constant self-absorption.
