House was great last night, possibly one of the best episodes I've seen, though I was working whilst it was on.

Heroes... I missed as the TV companies saw fit to pitch Heroes against House. Given how poor Heroes was last season, even with the relaunch I didn't even remotely consider Heroes as preferable to House!

I'm currently re-watching S3 of Heroes and really enjoying it (as I did first time round). Glad that House is back on form, I thought it lost its way slightly when Spoiler Alert! - Highlight below to read!

Kutner killed himself

End Spoiler Alert!

Got hold of a couple of new shows the past couple of days:

Quote:

Accidentally on Purpose will follow Billie (Elfman), a San Francisco movie critic in her 30s, who gets pregnant after an affair with a man named Zack (Jon Foster), a chef who is in his 20s, this after they meet at a local bar and had a one-night stand at a friend's apartment. To make matters more complicated, Billie has decided to keep both her baby and her new beau. And on top of that, she just broke up with her boss, James, who wants to resume their relationship after being humiliated (She was hoping that he would ask her to marry him, but he told her that he wasn't ready because he was married once before).

Thanks to this unexpected arrival, Billie and Zack have agreed to live together platonically, since the only place that Zack has called home was his van. While Billie receives encouragement and advice from her party girl best friend (and fellow journalist) Olivia and her conventional younger married sister Abby, she also has to deal with Zack's freeloading friend Davis, among others, when they start turning her place into a frat house, leaving Billie to question whether she's living with a boyfriend, a roommate, or if she just has a second child to raise.[

Not sure on this one as they tried to cram a lot into 20 minutes, will watch a few more before I decide.

Quote:

Eastwick. The show follows the lives of three strangers, Roxanne, Joanna and Kat, who meet at a wishing fountain and soon become friends. A mysterious man named Darryl Van Horne has moved to Eastwick and has sinister plans for the girls, but befriends them. What's even more dangerous, he's unleashing their supernatural powers. But by igniting their heart's desires, he might just be opening Pandora's box.

Based on the novel and the film of the same name. Paul Goss (Due south) was quite good in the opening episode, wasn't sure what to expect as I'd never really seen the movie, but was pleasantly surprised and will keep watching for a while.

Quote:

Cougar Town. The series is about Jules Cobb, a 40-year-old Florida woman who recently divorced and reenters a dating scene filled with younger men while living with her 17-year old son.

Stars Courtney Cox in the main role and even though she does annoy me at times I did enjoy this, also has Dr Cox's wife from scrubs in it. Again, will give it a few more episodes before deciding to stick with it, on the plus side, it did remind me slightly of Weeds and is a nice length at 20 minutes long.

Quote:

FlashForward. A mysterious global event causes everyone on the planet to simultaneously lose consciousness for 137 seconds, during which many see what appear to be future memories of his or her life six months later. When it is over, many are dead in accidents involving vehicles, aircraft, and any other device needing human control. Everyone who survived is left wondering if what they saw will actually happen.

Really really enjoyed this and want to see the next episode asap.

Just watched the first episode of the new season of Family Guy. It's absolutely superb. Don't think I've laughed out loud as much during any episode of FG. The Disney bit was absolutely sublime. If you are or ever were even the tiniest bit a fan of FG, then watch.
