The answers to life's problems aren't at the bottom of a bottle, they're on TV.

It's fall and the TV shows are starting. What are you watching? Got any recs for me?

The returning shows I'm watching are: Angel. And ... well, I think that's it. Everything else I was watching is over. At least until S4 of Trailer Park Boys starts, but I don't know when that will be.

New shows:

Jake 2.0
A geek gets super powers from nanobots. If I can remember to, I'll tune in to check this out, mostly because of what TV Guide had to say about it: Jake 2.0 will develop a fervent fan following and spawn countless Web sites, all of which will turn into online petitions once the show gets canned.

Tru Calling
Eliza. That's why I'll be there. *licks pic in TV Guide* Possibly hoping that the show will tank so they can do a Buffy spin-off instead. (Faith, Wes, Andrew -- that's who I want to see.)

Tarzan
Tarzan in NYC. Why did I decide to tune in again? Oh, right, Mitch Pileggi. But probably he'll only be on sometimes and the show will be stupid and I'll give up on it.

The Brotherhood of Poland, NH
A show about people in a small town. David E. Kelly been good to me in the past.

And you?

Um, lessee...

Angel. With full irony and dubiousness.

West Wing, until it reveals its post-Sorkin disaster (which could be as early as the season premiere) and I give up in disgust.

Smallville, though every week I ask myself "Why?"

Queer Eye, until the snark replaces the compassion and it gets too mean for me, which I'm predicting will happen at some point.

I expect to be down to one show by the time February sweeps roll around. And I'm not picking up anything new unless the pimping fans in question can assure me it won't get cancelled straight away.

Bitter much, Heather?
