      That's how I was with the "Up All Night" pilot, I didn't laugh or even smile once.

        Whitney Cummings isn't funny and if you like her you should feel bad about yourself.

        There really hasn't been any good new shows this year, but then again there hasn't been a good network cable show since Season 2 of LOST.

          Here is the team I drafted in my primary "new show death pool" (yes, primary, sadly I do multiple leagues):

          Prime Suspect - Very proud I nailed this one. Not dead yet, but it's obviously coming.

          H8R - CW trash about fans who hate D-list celebs. Risky because it's CW, and it's cheap to produce.

          Grimm - Modern cops solve crimes based around the stories of the Brothers Grimm. C'mon, this is a fucking layup.

          Once Upon A Time - Wiki symopsis: The series is loosely inspired by the classic fairy tale stories except set in the present day, hence the series name. The stories hold a key to the mystery that will draw a bail bonds collector and the son that she gave up for adoption 10 years earlier to a New England town called Storybrooke, Maine. This town is actually a parallel world in which fairy tale characters look like normal people and don't remember their true identities or anything about their true lives.

          Man Up - Three buds living together, who decide its time to put down the video games and MAN UP! Tyical sitcom 'hilarity' ensues.

          I BADLY wanted to draft 'Heart of Dixie', which stars Rachael Bilson as a fucking heart surgeon (!) who moves to rural Alabama to find love. My god. Somebody picked it one spot before me. RACHAEL BILSON AS A HEART SURGEON.
          W2B is on the board, as the CW cancels H8R.

            Is it just me or is this one of the worst new Fall lineups in recent memory?

              CBS has moved 'How To Be A Gentleman' to Saturday, which is basically an early funeral. There are reports the initial 13 episode order has been changed to 9, but either way, while it's not 'officially' cancelled, it will simply wither away and die on Saturday's and never be seen again

                Good. Hope they fill its spot with something halfway decent so I can stop channel flipping for 30 minutes between Big Bang and Person of Interest.

                    Is she a comedian? I'd never heard of her, and I don't understand how/why her show is funny.

                      I think so. I believe she did a couple Comedy Central roasts but I could he mistaken.

                        We have the same taste.

                        BTW, I really wish fox wouldn't have gotten rid of Human Target...

                          Canceled. Being replaced with Rules of Engagement. CBS has been seemingly trying to kill of this show for years, but can't find anything better. I think it's a fine show and they should give it a full season run instead of the mid season replacement or the fucking Saturday slot.

                          Also, that Whitney show is fucking terrible. Sadly, it'll go a full season, because they advertised the fuck out of it.

                              I saw the premiere for Once Upon A Time, definitely not my type of show and a little silly, but can't say it was bad. Ratings wise it hardly lost any viewers for its 2nd episode, might be around for awhile. A lot longer then the other fairy tale shows they try to put on TV.

                              Grimm on the other hand was horrible, I turned off before 5 mins. Some girl got attacked in the woods while jogging and listening to Marilyn Manson, lol. I laughed when I saw it was premiering during game 7, but apparently even then the ratings weren't bad. I still think it's gonna sink soon though.

                              I'm reminded why I never watch any ABC shows.



                              Anywho just started watching Up All Night, glad it's already been cleared

                                I've watched both episodes of Once Upon a Time. Really silly, but for some reason I keep tuning in.
