If you want big, bad vampires, you should check out the Black Dagger Brotherhood series by JR Ward. Or The Hollows series by Kim Harrison. They do big, bad vampires very well.

I always imagined vampires would watch reruns of Beauty and the Beast. Or The A-Team. Sorry, I couldn’t resist. 😎

The big bads are creatures of the night. Vampires should not be walking around during the day. They should be at home watching Passions and reruns of Dawson’s Creek.

Pushing Daisies was pretty cool, but it didn’t really grab me. I just wonder how the main relationship between Ned and Chuck can ever be fulfilled since he can never touch her again. I think the writers have painted themselves into a corner with that premise. But the visuals were stunning.

I loved PUSHING DAISIES. I think it’s very much a writer’s show. A quirky writer. :ww: I’ll have to catch HIMYM and try it.

I think Moonlight has some potential, but I thought the pilot was pretty average. I guessed the teaching assistant was the killer about twenty minutes in. And I thought it was kind of sloppy to have Mick reveal his true nature to the professor, especially when Jason Dorhing was stressing the importance of secrecy.

Becky — I totally agree. Chuck is hilarious. I really like the main character and Adam Baldwin as the semi bad guy. 😎

I tried to watch Bones when it first came on, but I didn’t really get into it. Every once in a while, I’ll watch a rerun. But Angel, oh Angel. That was a show I loved. Someone told me Whedon is going to do an Angel comic book a la the current Buffy series. I hope so.

I read one of the Kathy Reichs books based on Amy’s recommendation. I liked it, but Amy’s right. There are lots of differences between Bones and the book.

Amy — A second job?? But you’re the boss lady during the day! What’s up with that?

Beware: there are some similarities between the show and the books and there are VAST differences. The show is based on a mix of the books and the author, Kathy Reichs’, life. Basically, the main character’s name and profession are taken from the books, but that’s about it.

And that’s our book review of the day from our friendly, neighborhood librarian, who doesn’t get to watch TV anymore due to taking a second job as a night librarian. Sigh. I miss TV!

Reaper had a little of the Ghostbusters vibe, I’m looking forward to more episodes.

Of the nine new shows I’ve planned to sample, — Pushing Daisies on Wednesday is last on my list — I haven’t hated any of them. I love the start of the new fall season, and I think this year has been fine so far. Not great, but certainly not bad.
