The simple pleasure of TV show watching

I feel like the change in season to fall means a lot of things so I wanted to talk about them all while it still felt relevant, hence the multiple posts on one night. I may not be a stereotypical couch potato, but I do have a bunch of TV shows that I love to watch, whether it be at their original viewing time, as a rerun or online. The end of September usually means the beginning of the return of many of the TV shows I have come to love. It also provides the opportunity for me to become attached to new viewing pleasures, although I really don't think I have time for more. Since when have I let a little thing like time stop me. This fall I will be spending time shedding tears of laughter and sorrow as I dive into the storylines of the following shows:

• Gossip Girl (CW Network) - the final season
• Glee (FOX Network)
• Modern Family (ABC Network)
• The Vampire Diaries (CW Network)
• Grey's Anatomy (ABC Network)
• Supernatural (CW Network)

Some TV shows that impressed me with season one and left me eagerly awaiting their return were:

• Hart of Dixie (CW Network)
• Revenge (ABC Network)
• Homeland (Showtime Network)
• Once Upon A Time (ABC Network)

The only reality-type show I watch is NBC's The Voice and really just for the bromance (for lack of a better word) between Adam Levine and Blake Shelton. It doesn't hurt that they are both quite easy on the eyes. Seeing as all of this is clearly not enough, I am still going at my own pace to get caught up on the US version of The Office. Now, I have added How I Met Your Mother to the list of shows to get up to date on. I am glad I did because this is such a funny show with a great cast and it is quite addictive to whiz through episode after episode in one sitting. In case you were wondering, yes there are new TV shows that have caught my eye and seem worth a look:

• Revolution (NBC Network)
• Last Resort (ABC Network)
• Emily Owens MD (CW Network)
• Nashville (ABC Network)

Gosh, on reflection, this is quite the list, but I guess that is what happens when there are so many TV shows on offer these days. Maybe one or a few of these will make it onto your viewing list if they aren't there already.
