wednesday tv report

Lost more than lived up to the hype. This show is phenomenal. Great cast. Simple yet insane premise. Matthew Fox made forget he was ever in Party of Five. I cannot wait for the next episode.

I tried out Veronica Mars just to see if the UPN could actually have a good drama that did not involve Buffy or Star Trek. Damn this show was surprisingly excellent! It is strangely reminsent of Buffy, Twin Peaks, and The O.C. yet minus any overt weirdness and completely its own thing. The title character is played by the girl from the Mamet film Spartan, who is really likable here. She is a high school girl who helps out her private detective father, played by the dude that played Eliot on Just Shot Me. As dumb as that premise sounds its all done very smartley and there is this huge mystery involving super rich people and a murdered teen girl all in the back ground adding weight to the show. Veronica Mars moves to tuesdays at 9 next week i'll defiantely be watching/taping this show.

The season premiere of Smallville was excellent with the introduction of Lois Lane, black kryptonite, flying, a potnetial Lana as villian polt, and an appearance my Margot Kidder. But I am wary because Smallville always seems to have great premieres then it loses it way halfway through the season. I hope they can avoid that trend this season.
