I can't keep up

It is Sunday once again and I find myself with too many shows and not enough time. Despite limiting my sleep schedule, I just can't fit in all the shows I want. I have 5 hours of backlogged shows on my DVR from just this week and those are the ones I can fit in the DVR schedule. There are still another 4 hours of shows that I would watch online if my schedule ever cleared up. Imagine where I would be if there weren't debates the last two weeks to put favorites into repeat mode or if I had movie channels.

So, here is the breakdown before My Own Worst Enemy and Crusoe premiere this week only adding to my dilemna.

Absolutely Can't Miss
Of course, Grey's Anatomy, Mad Men, Life, CSI Las Vegas (Last week's premiere was the best episode ever ), Brothers and Sisters, Greek, How I Met Your Mother (Sadly it is on as I DVR two other shows so I have to find an excuse to watch it upstairs (gulp) live. Good thing my hubby doesn't like to watch tv.) The Amazing Race and Survivor.

New favs.
Fringe. I am also really enjoying The Ex List. I didn't expect to but it is perfect Friday night fodder.

Sophomore Season Slump Eluded
Gossip Girl, Dirty Sexy Money, and Lipstick Jungle have managed to evade the sophomore slump. I would agree with the critics who say DSM has gotten better this season.

On the fence
Pushing Daisies and Chuck. I loved the first seasons of both these shows, but haven't seen anything new. The plot on both is getting repetitive (not surprising considering the premise on each).

Still Trying to Fit in the Premiere
Life on Mars, Eleventh Hour

Can't Find Time
ER (Will have to wait until repeats because I will watch the final season, I will.), Samantha Who, Privileged, Valentine, The Mentalist (I'm trying, but it's Psych without the funny), Kath and Kim, SNL Prime Time (though I really want to).

A Small Glimpse of Light

I need to apologize to March after my last post. It isn't March's fault it got the raw end of the deal between being typical rerun time stuck in between sweeps and the tv being off during Spring Break (except for those parents unable to head out on vacation trying desperately to entertain their kids of course) and the writer's strike leaving no episodes to be watched. There were a few glimpses of light this month.

First of all, the series premiere of Miss Guided proved to be a refreshing new comedy. A talented cast and perfect timing makes this a don't miss for me. Judy Greer has been stealing scenes as the supportive best friend for too long, she needed to step into the limelight and it is reflecting out light through the darkness of March. Ashton Kucher's appearance in the second episode didn't hurt much either.

The second ray of light in the darkness has been the return of Greek. Greek is possibly the only reason (outside of getting my Gilmore Girls rerun fix) to tune into ABC Family. At least they have had the good sense to order up another season. Greek allows us the guilty pleasure of reliving college without the tests and hangovers.

While I am still anxious for April to arrive, I feel better making peace with March.
