V
Geeky TV
As the days get longer down here in NZ they get shorter in the US, which means that the Fall TV premiers are just round the corner! There is a large bunch of genre TV starting up this year as well of the return of some of my favs from last year.
Amazingly Dollhouse returns next week for it’s 13 episode second season. Despite all the evidence it was renewed at the last minute and from all reports the show is going to be building on the still of the last half of the first season. I finally got to watch the now slightly mythical “lost” 13th episode, Epitaph One, the other day and if it continues down that track it’s going to be great. Looking forward to see what they come up with.
Not so amazingly Fringe, from sci fi golden boy J J Abrams, started it’s second season on Thursday and will no doubt provide more mind bending, reality twisting, horrific plots. I was a tad disappointed by the season finisher last year, though I think that might be because the big shocker finish just doesn’t resonate as much with me as it would with American viewers. However I can’t wait to see more of Walter’s hijinks and am looking forward to seing how they play out the twist in his relationship with Peter.
Of the new crop of shows I’m looking forward to Flash Forward and the re-boot of V. So watch this space to see whether they’re worth watching, or in my case buying the DVDs for.
