I checked in this morning with what those crazy kids over at Bonanza City to see if they were still alive, kickin’ and speaking with adorable speech impediments. Having missed the past two episodes I was certain Wednesday’s episode would open with a series of cabins flames and thick black smoke pouring out of the windows. The streets would be riddled with corpses with one naked youngster beating another naked younger with a wooden plank off by the church. The rest of the town would be covered in mud, faces painted and attacking the film crew, who they have decided serve no purpose other than that of food. These images were quickly put to rest as the kids continued doing/not doing dishes, complaining about not getting paid enough, and looking generally chilly.

It’s been a month since new shows started popping up and my god has it been a rough ride. I was able to keep for the better part of two weeks, but lately I’ve had to throw my hands up and declare that once again, the television has won. Part of the problem, for me at least, is this fall seems to have more decent shows than season’s past. There are always one or two really good new programs, but typically the rest of it is just dreck. This year there have only been a small handful of shows I would consider abdominal, but with an unusually large amount resting somewhere in the middle. But how does one justify sticking with a series that is at its very best just OK. I think now would be as good a time as any to look at where we are and decide how to move forward.
