This fall on ABC, we can only look forward to more of America’s Funniest Home Videos.
Just Kidding. I’m actually mad that show is still on… with all its 80s hair…
But like I was saying, this fall the most exciting new show on ABC is one called Modern Family. It follows three different types of dysfunctional American families…basically making yours and mine look damn good. Can’t wait.
Then there’s Cougar Town… a show that I believe came about simply because we can no longer ignore the moms who are dating their son’s best friends. They need to know it’s okay to aspire to be Demi, so Courteney Cox is going to hold it down, represent.
The show Castle is supposed to be a NYPD cop comedy/drama that will be nothing like all the other cop comedy dramas…why? Because the main character Richard Castle was previously a novelist. It sounds like that will be the only thing that separates Castle from the other cop-related murder/mystery show- The Forgotten.
Oh wait, then there’s Flash Forward. But this one is about the FBI in Los Angeles, not anything like the cops of NY. Not at all.
I’m waiting for the new ideas, ABC.
In all honesty, we may just need to stick to what we know on ABC. We can count on another season of Grey’s Anatomy, Ugly Betty, Private Practice, Desperate Housewives, Brothers & Sisters, Dancing With The Stars, and Extreme Makeover: Home Edition. We know these shows work, and we can trust them.
Some of the other shows are not even worth mentioning. But if you want to see for yourselves, head over to abc.com.
ABC, darlings, you are not NBC yet. You do not need to do all this extra work.
Except I do kind of like the idea of Cougar Town...
Hanging by a moment here with you,
C.A.M.
