Mid-Season TV to Love and Mock: Part 2

This is the second installment of sharing with you guys what we will and won’t be watching on TV as the mid-season TV schedules start.
CBS shows
Undercover Boss – A reality show where bosses spy on their underlings. Pretty shady! Will not watch – seems about as boring as Wife Swap. No, I mean the one about the Super Nanny. THAT boring!
Miami Medical – Ah yes, we DID need another medical show set in Miami. This used to be ‘Miami Trauma’.
Flashpoint - I don’t watch this show, but I’ll mention it for those who do. It has Pappa Mars! (Enrico Colantoni)
The CW
Life Unexpected – They dropped the x, and they’re promoting it as Juno meets Gilmore Girls. I’ve mentioned this show a lot because I’ve seen the first episode already, and it’s GREAT. This is an amazing show and I will watch it for sure.

Fly Girls – A reality show, “that takes a 360-degree look at the lives of the charismatic jet-setting flight attendants on America’s hippest new airline: Virgin America.” They are promoting the show as showing glam lives – but while I doubt the lives are all that glamorous as they used to be, I think this will be a really fun guilty pleasure show to watch. And think of the drama – people are in such tight quarters!
Tinsley – I am a fashion nerd, and I was praying this was a show about Tinsley Mortimer. AND IT IS. She is a blonde Manhattan socialite. The show will only be a half-hour, boo! We want more!
FX
Archer - I’ve reviewed this and it’s awesome. You must watch or be banished!

Damages - I seriously need to start watching this show. I know. Augh. Where is the time? I’ll MAKE time, dammit!
Justified – I have no idea what this show is about at this current time. Oops. Wait…it’s like…a Western? Hot Timothy Olyphant? I could dig that…
Louie - A comedy with Louis C.K.
HBO
Big Love – An amazing show that you need to start watching. Have an open mind (not about polygamy, but about watching a show ABOUT polygamy)! It’s such a well-made hour of television.

Treme – Treme sounds like a hair care product. But it’s a show about a post-Katrina New Orleans. I would definitely suggest checking this out.
In Treatment
Lifetime
Project Runway – It’s back AGAIN on Jan. 14! Yes
Showtime
Secret Diary of a Call Girl – I love this show so much, you have no idea. You’d think I’d be embarrassed to admit I love a show about a Call Girl, but I’m not. It’s a fabulous show. So entertaining, and Billie Piper is a fantastic actress.
Showtime TV Listings to Note (Secret Diary of a Call Girl, United States of Tara, Nurse Jackie…)
Tracey Ullman: State of the Union – Funny times for all.
Nurse Jackie – Everyone is a big fan of this show for a reason. It’s good. Damn good.
United States of Tara – Ooooh, how I love this show. It’s just so damn good. Unique, a talented cast, and the writing is just A+.
The Tudors – It’s the last season for all of that sex and scandal! Plus, pretty dresses.

about time for ‘life unexpected’! ‘justified’ i might just have to check out; tim olyphant is automatic win. and ‘BIG LOVE’!! i dont understand why its like a freaking years between seasons, but i dont care, its SO. GOOD. sarah and lois are personal favorites.
and im really happy to hear about ’secret diary’ coming back; i had heard some rumors about billie no longer being interested now that shes a mother. i hope those arent true because she was BORN for that role.

Oh they dropped the x and made it a real word? Thank goodness! It seemed silly with that weird spelling. I will definitely watch it, it’ll be interesting to see Shiri Appleby in an adult role. Justified is a modern day marshall who come back to his home town after something happened. Something bad, if I remember correctly. Don’t quote me on that. But, yeah. Timothy Olyphant is all I need to tune in. Reading your Archer article, I am now interested in it.
I’m excited for a lot more from this list, too. Just lazy about expanding on that. Oh tv, how I love thee.
