The X Factor (Fox) — Series premiere. Finally! I’ve been waiting years for a show that’s just barely different from “American Idol.”
Law & Order: SVU (NBC) — Season premiere. A hotel maid accuses a diplomat of sexual assault in this completely original story that was not at all ripped from the headlines.
Revenge (ABC) — Series premiere. Madeleine Stowe and Emily VanCamp star in this awful-looking murder-mystery from the producers of Twilight.
Modern Family (ABC) — Season premiere. The Pritchetts and Dunphys head to Wyoming for a cattle-ranchin’ hour-long episode. Now I can stop being mad about this show winning all the Emmys and just be happy that it’s back on the air.
CSI: Original Flavor (CBS) — Season premiere. Ted Danson debuts as the new star. A huge upgrade from Laurence Fishburne, who I used to like before he got all puffy.

Not even Nicole Whatsherface’s huge fake knockers will get me to give a rat’s ass about the X-Factor.
Wasn’t Madeleine Stowe in a movie titled “Revenge”?
I make fun of reality shows then realize I’ve watched every season of Ultimate Fighter, which premieres tonight on Spike!
Who’s the giant next to Leo?
I thought I read somewhere that Revenge was based on an Alexandre Dumas story (I’m guessing Count of Monte Cristo). Because of that I almost considered watching it, but then I came to my senses.
The thought of Sofia Vergara possibly riding on horseback in a low cut top just gave me a chubby. I guess I’ll be at my desk for a while…
Zatsum’ Paula Abdul? Good Lord, why was I not told of this?
Oh yeah, it was me ignoring this crap. My bad.
Emily Van Camp is not awful looking though. She has an attractiveness I can appreciate. When she doesn’t talk, of course.
@Wayne – The Ultimate Fighter is perfectly acceptable to watch despite the fact that it is a reality show. Any show where people beat the shit out of each other is watchable.
Per my husband, that is the only “reality” show that is allowed in our home
The Pritchetts and Dunphys head to Wyoming…
Next season, they’ll go to Hawaii. Their wacky neighbors will come along for some reason. There they’ll find a Tiki Idol and find out that Luke is actually the reincarnation of King Kamehameha. On the way home, they’ll stop at a wild west dude ranch and have a western fantasy adventure. And the kids will form a rock and roll band.
Then Alex will get hit in the nose with a football.
