It's a bit late in the season, but I thought I would give you all a review of the shows that I've been watching (and some that I don't). True to past form, I will give you the upshot in (about) 140 characters - Twitter-style.
NEW SHOWS
Better With You: Honestly one of my favorites of the new shows. I'm reminded strongly of Friends while watching. Check it out, if only for some laughs.
Bleep My Dad Says: Some funny stuff there. I just don't think I have the patience for it that I once did. I avoid it on my DVR and only watch it when it's the only thing on.
Mike & Molly: Still funny, but not as charming as it was at the beginning. I think I wanted there to be more build-up to their relationship so it would be a better payoff when they finally went out.
No Ordinary Family: Do. Not. Want. Watched the pilot, gave up on it in first ten minutes (I watched the whole thing to be sure, I was right).
Outsourced: Liked a few of the episodes, but I haven't been keeping up with it. Heard it's gone downhill. Not sure if it was ever any good to begin with...
Raising Hope: Love it. Very funny, a little crass, and has a lot of heart. What I've seen so far has made me happy it was created.
Terriers: Liked the pilot. Didn't watch any more of it because it's not particularly my tup of cea. Too bad it was canceled though. :(
Undercovers: Oh boy did I want to like this show. Sorry J.J., it's a no-go for me. (Canceled you say? Nevermind.)
The Walking Dead: I really like this show. I know it has its problems, but you should look past that and realize how amazingly well done it is. The makeup/effects are astounding. The visuals far outweigh the drama, but there is plenty of that too.
OLD SHOWS
30 Rock: It's been on an upward swing. I absolutely loved the live episode. Good things are still happening over there and they need to keep it up.
The Amazing Race: Secretly addicted.
Big Bang Theory: I will probably never not be a fan of this show. Even when they're not on point. The episode with the girls' sleepover - classic.
Community: Hooray, hooray! They have found their place and are comfortable in what they are doing. Love it.
How I Met Your Mother: The show is hitting a really great stride. Funniest season in a long while. Hooray!
Mad Men: I know the season's already over, but damn. That's a fine show.
The Middle: I went away for a while, but now I'm glad to be back. This show has the most heart on network television. Great show.
Modern Family: Still great. Some hits, some misses. Overall a lovely show.
The Office: Frustrated, but not turned away yet. I would feel like letting down a friend if I didn't watch each week.
NOT SCREENED
The Event: I was going to, but then all my friends stopped watching because they were frustrated by it. Oh well, another Flash Forward situation I guess. #missedboat
Fringe: EVERYONE is saying I should watch this. But I want to start at the beginning.
Hawaii 5-0: Wanted to watch this, even DVR'd it. Lost interest. Oh well.
Rubicon: This show was my greatest regret this season. Just never had any time for it. Hopefully it will be on Netflix/Hulu soon.

Better With You: I liked the pilot, but not enough to commit to it. I'll give it a season, and see how things go in the next (if it gets one).
I refuse to watch Bleep My Dad Says. Absolutely refuse.
I'll let you know if Terriers gets good.
I dropped No Ordinary Family. Lame.
Yes. Fringe. Start at the beginning if you insist, but the good stuff doesn't kick in until middle of season 2 (with a few awesome detours near the end of Season 1). That's when the show [literally] became out of this world.
