Watch the DEXTER Season 3 Premiere Now!

The password is: lady killer

I cannot wait, dropping everything I had planned to watch this right now!

The CW’s newest show PRIVILEGED premieres tonight but you can see the entire pilot episode right now for free!

I’m very torn about what to do with Privileged because it’s on at a really bad time for me but I’m dying to watch. It’s right up my alley and after watching the pilot’s first 3 minutes I was hooked. I mean how many shows have a little boy saying: “Hey Lady, I can see your vajayjay!”?

Oh and I still have a severe weakness for Michael Cassidy - he’s a stone cold fox and I can’t not watch the boy! Enjoy and let me know what you think. Should I make every effort possible to watch this on a weekly basis? Seriously there are a couple moments in this pilot where he makes me tingle inside. Here’s one of them…

Thanks to Seat42F for the tip off.

Tuesday’s are no Monday and that my friends is a good thing. The new Fall 2008 Tuesday night schedule is more packed in terms of shows I’m interested in watching than it has been in a while. Last season the only thing I really watched on a Tuesday was The Biggest Loser which quickly shot to the top of my must watch list. I was kind of obsessed… just a tad.

This year the night kicks off with Trainer Bob and Crazy Ass Jillian with THE BIGGEST LOSER: FAMILIES and for reals, I cannot wait. I’ve missed doofy Bob and hard as frak Jillian kicking these fatties into shape. Not to mention, I’ve grown to love host Alison Sweeney… she’s kinda great. The show delivers guaranteed tears and let’s be honest… sometimes a good cry needs to be scheduled into your week - why not Tuesday night?

90210 is hands down the most hyped show of the new season but since they didn’t send it to the press or to us TV Bloggers we don’t know if it will be Cloverfield or Howard the Duck. I won’t lie, I’m super intrigued and crazy psyched to see what the reboot will be. I’m not dumb enough to think that it’s going to have the wit and bite that Gossip Girl provides but I hope that it’s not a total cheese-fest. Is there any denying that it’s going to be a huge success right out the gate? No. The biggest challenge for this new crop of West Beverly High kids will be trying to live up to the nostalgia of the original while creating a brand spanking new show of their own that people will care about past the premiere. I can’t promise I’m there past Week 1.

The CBS Psych-like newbie THE MENTALIST had a really fun yet dark pilot that I honestly enjoyed. I’ve never been a huge Simon Baker fan but as the lead observer/one-time fake psychic helping solves crimes from week to week, he’s quite engaging. He has a really dark past that ties into the main arc/big bad of the show but he’s still a man with a sense of humor not to mention kinda hot. As much as I don’t like Robin Tunney past 1997, she’s not nearly as bad and cheesy as she was in Prison Break. Amanda Righetti hasn’t been known for her Emmy winning worthy style of acting but I even enjoyed her here. I make no promises with my commitment to The Mentalist. It’s a good pilot and a fine premise but sometimes procedurals fall to the wayside when I get busy and let’s be honest… it’s up against the 2nd hour of The Biggest Loser and J.J. Abrams new bouncing baby girl Fringe so…

Yeah, FRINGE is pretty much kick ass and I cannot wait to see how this show develops. I did not have the overwhelming sense of being mind frakked after watching the pilot (like I had been with both Alias and Lost) but I’ve watched it a couple times already and I’m not sick of it so that’s a good sign right? I don’t need to go into details of the show because honestly, you’re all just as excited as I am. Anna Torv is a wonderful new find and tough as nails. Joshua Jackson in back in our lives and that’s never a bad thing. There’s a cow and it’s set in Boston… what’s not to love?

Also at 9:00 is The CW’s new series PRIVILEGED but look at the schedule above and know why I can’t watch. Couldn’t they move this to like Sunday night or something? That would work much better for me. CW take note.

Not to mention I’m already watching GREEK Season 2 so…

Finishing out the night is ELI STONE but the more I think about it, I don’t know that I’ll be watching - at least not live. It’s a show that might be pushed to my DVR or iTunes schedule. I’ve got a full night, what do you want from me? Plus I didn’t even mention that I get paid to watch THE JANICE DICKINSON MODELING AGENCY and recap for AfterElton.com so my 10 is full and money trumps Katie Holmes any day.

Hello Upper East Side stalkers, you’ve been waiting months for those over-privileged over-dressed richies to return and it’s finally here! GOSSIP GIRL Season 2 kicks off tonight and I’m thrilled to report that a hiatus has been good to all and you’re in for quite the treat tonight!

Season 2 kicks off in the Hamptons and it’s obviously been a summer of sun, fun and a lot of nudity. GG is back and dirtier than ever! Get ready for some hardcore Mrs. Robinson action (Madchen Amick never looked better, but really when was the last time cleaning up Leo Johnson’s spittle looked hot?), a new and hopefully improved Lil J, some rekindled friendships and romances, not to mention some of the smartest lines this show’s ever delivered.

Of the three eps I’ve seen, the first two take place in the Hamptons and at the end of episode 2 they’re on their way back to NYC. Ep 3 is still the summer so don’t go thinking we’re getting back to uniforms and knee highs anytime soon. Settle in and let the dog days of summer bark and nibble at your Walmart socked feet.

Obviously I can’t give anything away so I will tell you some of my favorite vague moments so far.

Only time will tell…

Here’s something to ponder: The girl you love to hate returns tonight and I’m not talking about Blair Waldorf, I’m talking about our mysterious insider with all the snarky and traumatizing scoop on our favorite teens. I have to say that in Season 1, I never found Gossip Girl to be that vindictive but 3 episodes into Season 2, she’s kind of a bitch and if we’ve learned anything over the last year it’s that Blair Waldorf is the biggest bitch in town, so lets leave it that way shall we?

Oh, and I think I might be over my Penn Badgley obsession. I think we broke up over the summer… he’ll be fine, I promise you.

xoxo you know you love me!

Don’t forget to tune into the Season 2 premiere of Gossip Girl tonight at 8pm on The CW.

PJ and her boys (oh and Steph) return tonight for Season 2 of TBS’ hit comedy MY BOYS. I watched the first two episodes of Season 2 a couple weeks ago so I could taunt you with knowing the identity of the man that will be accompanying PJ to Italy but I won’t… I’m good like that.

The only thing I’ll say about the Season 2 premeire is that I felt a little let down by the pacing of the episode and I thought that a few comedic beats were wonky. I’m not saying I didn’t enjoy it, I’m just saying that it didn’t feel like a wham-bam premiere episode. Regardless, the boys are hilarious in the first episode and damn do they get in trouble without PJ around.

Watch a quick recap of My Boys Season 1

And here’s a sneak peek at Season 2

Don’t forget, MY BOYS Season 2 premeires tonight at 9:30pm on TBS.

*If you’re a Boston MY BOYS fan, head on over to my girl GMMR and check out the information on her My Boys Hometown Viewing Party on June 19th with My Boys star Jamie Kaler (Mike). Sadly I’ll be out of town so I won’t be able to attend. Boooooo

Tonight is a moment I’ve been waiting for since May 2007 when CBS announced it was picking up a retro show called SWINGTOWN. The pilot is incredible and really catches the vibe of the 70’s and the ambigious issues or morality and sexuality for suburban couples. Okay, I was only 2 when this show takes place but that’s beside the point.

SWINGTOWN stars the always amazing Molly Parker, Jack Davenport, Grant Show, Lana Parrilla, Josh Hopkins and Miriam Shor (love you Yitzhak) in a 1976 Chicago suburb.

The show premieres tonight at 10pm on CBS. Be there or be square.

Believe it or not, SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE Season 4 premieres tonight and I won’t be able to watch it. I’m sick over it, like gagging with a spoon sick over it.

The 2 hour premiere tonight will begin the audition process so I’m not that worried about missing out on my newest SYTYCD TV Boyfriend or on all of the great amazing dancers that will thrill us week to week.

Instead I’ll probably miss out on SEX, Ian Benardo and some other deludinoids and even that makes me sad. I want to see it all!

Will there be another Myles Johnson, or hell will there be Myles Johnson 2.0 - another year older, wiser and now a master of dance? God, I can only hope. Loved that boy just a short 12 months ago…

*Don’t forget to check out all of the madness and video bliss from last season - look back at the SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE VIDEO DEATH MATCH!

**Don’t forget to check out the backstage fun courtesy of Neil Haskell’s amazing family!

***I hope that some of you SYTYCD fans will come back tonight and tell me everything that I missed while I was flying across the country. I want to know everything!

While the strike may be over, we are still weeks away from most of our favorite shows returning to the air in limited new episodes. In the meantime we are saddled with a ton of reality shows like American Idol, Big Brother 9, Survivor, and Project Runway. Don’t worry though, we still have plenty of time to talk about Lost and newbies like Eli Stone and Unhitched. Plus, Kath gives you an update on where she is in the process of watching all 7 seasons of Buffy before the end of March. Good times.

The BIG BROTHER 9 Premiere just ended and while I love having the show back it went by WAY too fast, right? I needed more time to get to know the contestants and esp. those pretty boy gays, Joshua and Neil.

Read all of my thoughts on the Big Brother 9 Premiere over at my AfterElton.com Liveblog.

With Starbuck back from the dead, will she lead the remaining members of the colonies to Earth or to their final destruction? Who’s the final cylon? Why is there a new version of 6? Why is Lee Adama so frakkin’ hot? It’s time for us to find out.

BATTLESTAR GALACTICA’s Final Season (4) begins April 4th, 2008. Leading up to the premiere we’ll be treated with a two specials that are not to be missed.

Here is the Press Release announcing BSG’s return:

The wait is finally over for Battlestar Galactica fans. SCI FI’s Emmy and Peabody Award-winning original series returns for its fourth original season on Friday, March 28 @ 10pm ET/PT with two back-to-back half-hour specials. The first new episode will premiere the following week, Friday, April 4 @ 10pm ET/PT.

Battlestar Galactica: Revisited (10pm) will serve up the essential information on the series’ past three seasons, providing the uninitiated with an introduction to the characters, relationships and spine-tingling drama that have captured the imagination of audiences around the world. Galactica’s executive producers, Ronald D. Moore and David Eick serve as guides, providing insights and revelations about the critically-acclaimed series.

Battlestar Galactica: The Phenomenon (10:30pm) is a celebrity-studded celebration of the show’s impact on pop culture. Interviewees, including Seth Green, country music’s Top Male Vocalist of 2007 Brad Paisley, and Talk Soup’s Joel McHale, and others, wax poetic about why Battlestar Galactica is one of the best frakkin’ shows on television.

As season 4 opens, the last remnants of humanity continue their search for a new home, the thin line that separates them from the rapidly evolving Cylons is being redrawn. Galactica’s crew, rocked by Starbuck’s sudden and mysterious return from the dead – and her claims that she has been to Earth and can lead them there – attempts to make sense of the inexplicable. Meanwhile, four members of the fleet are still reeling from the revelation that they are Cylons and have been all along.

TORCHWOOD Season 2 premieres January 26th on BBC America and the anticipation is killing me. Not only do I obsess over this show and the genius that is Capt. Jack Harkness but knowing that Buffy’s James Marsters is in the premiere makes the wait that much worse.

Here are the first 4 minutes from the Torchwood Season 2 Premiere entitled “Kiss Kiss Bang Bang”

Here’s a bonus clip featuring James Marsters and what appears to be his time travelling character that used to be “partners in everyway and then some”. Good god!

Just wait until you see the full on gay kiss between Capt. Jack and Capt. Spike John Hart. Damn that’s hot!

America’s Next Top Model is finally moving back to New York City for their 10th season so maybe that means there will be some real modeling gigs in the future for the newest crop of stick figures. I’m sick of the crappy shoots in gardens and in deserts with the LA skyline in the background. I mean who thinks of Los Angeles when you think of modeling and fashion? Not my gay ass.

Give me some heroine thin girls looking cracked out in a bathtub next to a line of tourists waiting at the TKTS booth in Times Square. I want to see Miss J in high heels stomping the yard and eating a Papaya dog for christ sake. I want cameras following Tyra Banks as she makes three trips a day to Rice to Riches prior to making that hideous talk show of hers. It’s time for Top Model to get fierce again!

So here’s the scoop on Season 10. It premieres February 20th on The CW and location is not the only difference you’ll notice this season. Out is “Fashion Icon and Living Legend” Twiggy but in her place is the still stunning Paulina Porizkova who will hopefully bring some much needed criticism and sass back to the group.

Here are the girls that are in the running to become America’s Next Top Model (Cycle 10):

I’m so excited to have ABC Family’s hit series KYLE XY back tonight. I’m not going to lie, I’ll be recording it and watching sometime later in the week because I’m pretty packed this week but regardless, I’m so ready to see how the Tragers take knowing the truth about Kyle and what will go down with crazy ass Jessi.

Here’s a preview for tonight’s Season 2’s Part 2 Winter Premiere
