Let’s do the rundown shall we?

• Brunette – Check
• Goofy one minute/sexy the next – Check
• Hot older woman – Check

Well that pretty much meets all my standards, let’s see if we can’t make us an F3 shall we?

 Julia Louis-Dreyfus: Actress/Comedian

If you don’t instantly recognize today’s F3, then where exactly were you during the decade know as the 90’s?  But since it would be unfair of me to just assume that everyone knows as much as I do, for those of you few individuals that don’t know who Julia is, then let’s let our nice friend Wikipedia shine some light on the situation.

Julia Scarlett Elizabeth Louis-Dreyfus(born January 13, 1961) is an Emmy-, Golden Globe-, and SAG Award-winning American actress and comedian who gained popularity playing the role of Elaine Benes on the NBC sitcom Seinfeld in the 1990s. She currently stars in the CBS sitcom The New Adventures of Old Christine.

Julia is my favorite kind of female comedian in that she can make me laugh hard enough to bring me to tears one moment and then if she wanted to make herself completely irresistible the next.  Not to mention I seem to be just constantly repeating myself when it comes to being attracted to older, sexy, brunettes.

One of the other cool things about Julia is that she seems, at least for the moment to be avoiding what some people call the Seinfeld curse with the success of her show on CBS called the New Adventures of Old Christine.(which by the way is the reason I’m featuring her this week after I caught a recent promo for the show and thought to myself damn I forgot how hot she is)

In any event:

” I would let Michael Richards berate me with the N-word all day…”

so I could prove to Julia that I’m very sponge worthy.

Is your favorite show’s proverbial pale, skinny neck on the line? Here are some alternatives that you can start DVRing now!

If you like Reaper…try Chuck. (or vice versa).
Both shows posts similarly interesting concepts – reluctant super geek unrealistically wins the affections of the incredibly hot leading lady while living a 007 kinda life. While every nerd gene in me wants to like both of these show, they haven’t even made the DVR cut and it’s a toss up. But if you like one, chances are you’ll like the other. Chuck airs Mondays on NBC at 8, Reaper airs Tuesdays at 9 on the CW.

Here are the pros and cons:

Reaper Pros:
Taylor Labine plays sidekick “Sock” with the comedic genius of Chris Farley and the political correctness of Gregory House – hysterical. The show is scheduled for a full 13 episodes, so you won’t be caught on a cliffhanger. The aforementioned love interest is much less annoying than her counterpart. Ray Wise (previously a VP on 24) plays an excellent satan.
Reaper Cons:
Call me old fashioned, but I like my superhero-ish type people to retain their secret identities. Here, everybody but Mom and Girlfriend know – ain’t that how it always is? Lead, Bret Harrison just isn’t a good actor and his character is written rather whiney.

Chuck Pros: Leading man Zachary Levi is more charming than his counterpart, there is considerable less whining from this character and he is a better actor.

Chuck Cons:
All the whine in this program comes for sidekick “Morgan”. The female lead is unbelievable and annoying. The show’s premise of information implanted into Chuck’s brain is theoretically more plausible than Reaper’s dealings with the devil, so why do I believe it less?

If you love Heroes…you might like Pushing Daisies.
These two shows have only a vague commonality in that they both deal with the “supernatural”. If you’re not up to date on Heroes, then you should immediately flog yourself and then go here. Good, moving on…
Pushing Daisies has stolen my cold dead heart. Its tender love story, quirky mysteries and Technicolor landscapes make for a phenomenally well crafted show. Supporting characters are just as interesting as the leads and the overall good-hearted themes are endearing and refreshing. Daisies has been picked up for a full season, but you’ll have to DVR the repeats until the strike is over.

Pushing Daisies airs Wednesdays on ABC at 8pm.
If you like Dancing with the Stars…you’ll need to leave now. No, seriously, get the f#ck out and go watch some Next Top Model or some other sh#t, cause you’re in the wrong place.

If you like any of the CSIs…you’ll love Criminal Minds.
I think most people agree that the original is always the best. Now, with the departure of our first original CSI, Sara Sidle, we’re at risk of having someone decidedly grating to replace her. The jury is still out on the new chick – we’ll see. If you haven’t been watching CSI: NY, check it out again, they’ve really gotten their stuff straight since Season 1, but if you’re already watching both and you’ve missed Criminal Minds, start watching this show NOW! This is not on my DVR lists because it’s just too good to pass up and I have previously touted the merits of this show. One of the best aspects of any crime drama is the psychological motives behind the very bad things that these very bad people are doing. If you’re thinking Criminal Minds would be too mundane or cerebral for you consider this: this past week’s episode was about a cannibal who ended up serving soup to the search party of the girl that he had killed. Guess what was in the soup? OH yeah baby, the girl that they were searching for. Criminal Minds kicks it up a notch – BAM!

Criminal Minds airs Wednesdays at 9pm on CBS.

Other good bets:

Women’s Murder Club – based on my favorite James Patterson novels, women will love the dynamics between these characters, men probably not so much. Fridays, ABC 9.
Numb3rs – great casting and characters make this show good. Fridays, CBS 10.

The best serialized show on TV is back and the Season 2 premiere didn’t disappoint. Taking place 4 months after last season’s finale we catch up with Hiro, Claire, Parkman and the rest of the gang as they try to get their lives back on track after saving New York City from nuclear annihalation last season.

Claire and family have relocated to Southern California but seem to be having some difficulty fitting in. The scene with Claire’s dad (aka H.R.G.) as he deals with his new boss was priceless. Hiro finds out that the legendary Japanese hero, Takezo Kensei, is actually a drunk English opportunist and when Hiro saves Kensei he actually changes history. Hiro is on a mission to set things right and as always the character is the heart of the show. Hiro’s father is apparently killed by a hooded superpowered attacker that he knows and the elder members of The Company look to be on a hitlist of some sort. Nathan Petrelli is still alive and looking very “rough”, beard and all. The smooth politician we knew last season is gone and he seems to be consumed by sadness over his missing brother Peter. In the last few moments of the show we see a disoriented Peter chained inside of a cargo container in Ireland surrounded by some men—do they work for The Company? Stay tuned….the show will get better and better I’m sure.

Also, concerning the upcoming spin-off show, Heroes: Origins, it was announced a while back that Kevin Smith (Clerks, Chasing Amy, Dogma) would be directing an episode but now two more have joined up. Director Eli Roth (Hostel) and Michael Dougherty (writer of X-Men 2 and Superman Returns) will be handling episodes respectively. The show will air during the mid-season hiatus of the original show and will introduce new characters which viewers will get to vote for their favorite and they will appear in season 3 of the original show.

Keep watching!!

CBS’s official 2007-2008 season starts September 24th.

CSI: Thursday, September 27th. The return of the minitaure killer. Do you think it’s the lab geek? Me too. Let’s find out together.

CSI: New York. Wednesday, September 26th. After the first season, this show really found its groove and with a few cast changes, quickly edged its way up to one of our favorites.

Criminal Minds: Wednesday, September 26th 10pm. Now in its fourth season it is easily one of the most underrated shows on TV. If, like me, you are always more interested in the motivations of killers rather than their means, you must start watching this. It’s CSI for shrinks.

House: Tuesday, September 25th. Oh Gregory, what will we do with you? Fox’s hit will be back soon and I gotta tell ya – I’d be happy with a total staff change here. Omar Epps’ character will be greatly missed, but the other two, not so much. Let’s stir it up a little bit, fling it out there and see what sticks. I’m game, and I know you are, doc.

Comedies:

30 Rock – October 4th

My name is Earl – Sept 27

Scrubs – October 25

Next week we’ll be showcasing some new shows – tune in!

Katee Sackhoff is an American actress born April 8, 1980 in Portland, Oregon and is most well known for her role of Capt. Kara “Starbuck” Thrace on the Sci Fi Channel’s reimagining of Battlestar Galactica. She has appeared in several films such as Halloween: Resurrection and TV shows such as ER and Cold Case.

Premiering Sept. 26, 2007 on NBC she will be playing the evil bionic Sarah Corvus in the new Bionic Woman. She is very worthy of a geekgasm so therefore….

I would lick her co-star Edward James Olmos’s taint after he buttfucked his old lady just to get a lick of her sweet taint!
