OFA Fall Preview Recap
Apologize for the lack of posts. Nothing new has crossed my email nor have I had much time to search around. However I had the pleasure to go the OFA Fall Preview. New seasons coming up include The Office, ER (final season), 24, Boston Legal (final season...sad), Pushing Daisies, Gossip Girl, Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles and Chuck to name a few. Some new shows mentioned were 90210, Night Rider, Kath and Kim (American adaptation of an Australian comedy), Worst Week and Gary Unmarried look to be a fine line for new shows but nothing that jumps out at me. I could see 90210 make a strong come back if it can bridge the generation gap but I have a feeling that it won't be as popular as the original or the spin off, Melrose Place. I know I never could be a media buyer because I won't have the heart, even if it the show had great numbers, to place my clients spots during shows I thought were no good. What is everyone excited about, besides college and NFL football, for this Fall?
The only thing I'm looking forward to this fall is being able to stream Netflix Instant View titles through my 360. Ten thousand mediocre films will be right at my fingertips any time, day or night. Seriously though, it's so hard to sit down to watch a show consistently. I always end up watching the same three episodes of CSI Wherever over and over again. I don't envy media buyers either.

Hockey starts up, too. Give me a night at the Ice Box over the telly any time.

I almost forgot but new seasons of Entourage, Big Love, Flight or the Conchords and Dexter are to break this fall.

Can't wait for the Office. And, Entourage and Flight of the Conchords, hells yeah. Makes me tempted to get HBO for sure.
College football is a must, Bo Big Red. Wow, just as corny when you type it as it is when I read on a Tshirt.

Mad Men season 2 is also in progress and seems to gain in popularity every day. Look at these knuckleheads.
