gary floyd rates the new TV shows
ABC
-Pushing Daisies-Best new show of the season. It's funny, has likeable characters (and hot chicks), great visuals, an intersting plot, and more. Great stuff. A
-Dirty Sexy Money-Not too wild about what I saw. Not even Donald Sutherland can save it. D
-Cavemen-No. F
-Carpoolers-Not even the presence of Kids in the Hall member Bruce McCulloch as a writer can make this good. Cliched and disappointing, as it could have been great. C-
-Big Shots-Sucks. I miss the shoe "Titus." F
NBC
-Chuck-The geek gimmick can occasionally get annoying, but it's still good stuff. B
-Journeyman-I really have wanted to like the show, and while Kevin McKidd is great, I have yet to be really involved. C+
-Bionic Woman-I really wanted to like this one also, but so far, it's just so-so. C
-Life-Good, but not great. It's fun, but formulaic. B-
Fox
-K-Ville-Also fun but formulaic. The thing that makes it is the cast, particularly Anthony Anderson. B-
-Back To You-Boring, with the exception of Fred Willard. D+
CBS
-The Big Bang Theory-From the producers of "2 1/2 Men." So yeah, it's not good. D-
-Cane-Interesting, and well acted, but a bit of a let down. C+
-Moonlight-Vampires as PI's? No thanks. F
-Viva Laughlin!-This is...well, it's something. It's a horrible show, but it's like a bad acid trip kind of horrible, as it's something you saw, hallucinated (well, it feels like it) and wish you never did see. F
The CW
-Aliens in America-Not too bad. The leads have great chemistry, and Adhir Kalayan could be the season's breakout star. Plus, it's got the kid from "The Hills Have Eyes" remake. B
-Reaper-The second best show of the season. Ray Wise gives the season's best performance as Satan. A
-Gossip Girl-Haven't seen it.
-Life is Wild-Ditto.
