Whooo-hooo! ENTOURAGE is back! It’s so good to see Vincent Chase and the gang again. Our Sunday nights are lookin’ kinda crowded.

I know I’ve listed all the shows we watch, but the list has grown, so let me break it down for you again.

SHOWS MR. MAUL AND I WATCH

Sundays
TRUEBLOOD
DEXTER
HUNG – we wish this show was an hr instead of a half hr
ENTOURAGE

Mondays
CHUCK
NURSE JACKIE – this woman is a trip

Tuesdays
THE MENTALIST
FRINGE

Wednesdays
BONES

Thursdays
SUPERNATURAL

Fridays
DOLLHOUSE – if it’s coming back

SHOWS I WATCH BY MYSELF

Sundays
DROP DEAD DIVA- I watched the season premiere of this new series Sunday night on the LMN network (not sure what it stands for). Did anyone else watch it? The soul of a size 2 blond-haired model ends up in the body of a size 16, brunette lawyer after they both die on the same day. Comedian Margaret Cho is in it and I really liked it. Good thing the hubby records TRUEBLOOD because they come on at the same time. I thought it was a 2-hr movie and then realized it’s a new series, so this will be another show I’ll be watching on Sundays.

Mondays
HEROES

Tuesdays
SAVING GRACE – I just got into this show. Not sure what season I’m watching right now, but I really like it. Including the theme song by Everlast.

Wednesdays

LEVERAGE – Christian Kane can manhandle me anytime
DARK BLUE - the series premiere comes on this Wednesday. This show reminds me of the one above, so I may take to it.

Thursdays

SMALLVILLE
THE LISTENER - seriously, how hawt-hawt-hawt is Craig Olejnik ? Is anyone else watching this show? The dude’s eyes are so unnaturally gorgeous, it’s eerie.

As you can see, we watch a lot of shows. Thank God for DVR.

So, what are you watching?

I think Mr. Maul and I have a new favorite show on HBO: HUNG. LOL.

No, it’s not a joke and yes, it means exactly what you’re thinking.

The season premiere came on Sunday night and it’s about this guy named Ray (Thomas Jane) who lost his house to a fire and his kids to his ex-wife (Anne Heche) and her new–and rich–husband. He’s living out of a tent on his property and has the primo job of coaching a losing high school basketball team.

Strapped for cash, he has to find a way to make money and gets help in the form of a how-to-make-millions type of class. After a comment hurled at him by his ex-wife–followed by a variation of the same comment by a one-night stand–Ray discovers how he can make money.

Sigh.

Needless to say, we liked it. We are now adding another show to our already long list of shows. Lucky for us, it comes on right after TRUEBLOOD. Our Sunday nights are getting awful crowded.

So, have you seen the show? Let me know what you think.

Is anyone out there watching THE LISTENER? Total hottie with laser blue eyes. That dude can read my mind–and save my life–any day of the week. Yowza!

What about NURSE JACKIE? She kinda reminds me of a nicer-but-just-as-snarky version of HOUSE.

Your thoughts?

Is anyone else out there excited that the second season of TRUEBLOOD has begun? Wow, what a neck-biter sorry, nail-biter the season premiere was, huh?

What the hell is Marianne?

And will someone please make Jason stop drinking the Kool-Aid? That boy is going to get himself into a heap of trouble.

On a side note: I heard that Anna Paquin and Stephen Moyer (Sookie and Bill) are dating in real-life. I imagine that would be quite…stimulating. To say the least.

I’ve said it twice and I’ll say it again: I wish TRUEBLOOD was on everyday.

I saw this on Yahoo headlines today: Boy Hit By Meteorite.

Reading this article made me think of one of my favorite shows, SMALLVILLE, and how Mr. Maul stopped watching it because for a while, they were doing “Freak of the Week” type episodes. The fallout from Clark’s plunge to Earth was bringing a lot of kryptonite-infused baddies out of the woodwork.

Better keep an eye on that kid. He might start developing some latent supernatural ability.

Wouldn’t that be interesting if that really happened? I sense a story…
