Fall Premiere Week - Thursday


ABC has the season premieres of Ugly Betty and Grey’s Anatomy followed by the series premiere of Big Shots, which doesn’t have much buzz. It’s strange that ABC would fill their best timeslot with one of their weakest shows.

CBS returns to its Thursday night lineup from two years ago: Survivor: China, which already premiered last week, CSI, and Without a Trace. I haven’t watched CSI in years. Is it still any good?

NBC offers up the hour-long season premieres of the irksome My Name is Earl and the eagerly anticipated return of The Office. This is the first of four straight hour-long eps of The Office. NBC had considered making this permanent. Ed Helms (Andy) and Craig Robinson (warehouse supervisor Daryl) are now series regulars. Closing out the night is ER. And no, that’s not a typo. ER is still on the air and is still dragging down the night NBC dominated for decades. They’re never going to rid themselves of the Thursday night doldrums if they don’t jettison this sorry excuse for a once great show.

Fox has an all reality lineup of Are you Smarter than a Fifth Grader? and Don’t Forget the Lyrics.

The CW has the season premiere of Smallville and a replay of the Reaper pilot, which I’ll be DVRing to watch after The Office.

    I watched CSI last season, and I liked it. I”ll be taping/watching this season. I’m hoping to watch Grey’s and soon knock it off my list of shows to watch….And I regret to say that I have not watched The Office. Only a few episodes here and there. Netflix queue, I think….

    I never got into Grey’s. I gave it a chance but it seems too warm for my taste. CSI used to be my favorite show back in the day. But I feel like its always on, much like Law and Order.

    You should watch The Office. It’s good stuff.
