There are some TV shows that I have come to enjoy. Some of them are returning shows while some premiered this fall.
House: Hugh Laurie portrays wisecracking, sarcastic diagnostic physician supported by his team of doctors, friends (one friend, to be precise) and the chief of the hospital.
Heroes: X-Men like premise where "evolution" has conferred upon ordinary people extarordinary abilities, including but not limited to tissue regeneration, flight, telekinesis, telepathy, etc.
Grey's Anatomy: Soap about doctors in a hospital in Seattle, focussing on Meredith Grey and her fellow interns. Very well acted.
Journeyman: Interesting idea about a man who time travels to the past but doesn't know how or why. The first few episodes have been about his wife and him trying to come to terms with it and him trying to help people in the past. I want to give this show some more time to develop before I judge it.
Pushing Daisies: A romantic comedy (?) about a guy who can give life to dead people with one touch and kill them permanently with the next. The romantic angle involves a childhood crush whom he brings to life but can never touch again for the fear of her dying forever. The pilot episode was very nicely done. The style and tone of the show seems unique. Again, I want to leave the verdict for later.
How I Met Your Mother: Kind of like Friends but for the 2000's. Neil Patrick Harris, who played Doogie Howser, is wonderfully hilarious. So are Josh Radnor, Alyson Hannigan (Michelle in American Pie, Willow in Buffy the Vampire Slayer) and Jason Segal (Seth Rogen's roommate in Knocked Up). Cobie Smulders is just hot. :)
