The Morning After: Weekend Roundup

Dexter's premier was awesome. This is the show that showtime needs if it wants to compete with HBO. I am sure it had no problem surpassing Tell Me You Love Me in the ratings.

I thought Brothers and Sisters did a great job of launching their season, without spending too much time giving a play-by-play of all of the dramas of the season before.

That said, if they continue to kill/cliffhanger more people at the beginning of each season, then Kitty's going to start seeing her birthday as a pretty good reason to committ suicide.

Last night was the first time I saw Dexter and Brotherhood. They were both interesting and I could see following them throughout a season. On Dexter, I was a little confused on how the news of a new mass killer could be beneficial to Dexter's sister psychologically. The one flaw with Brotherhood seemed to be too many plots, too many scenes.(So the politician brother tried to whack the mobster brother?).
Moonlight actually reminded me of CBS late night years ago with Forever Knight, plus the potential love interest looked like the girlfriend from Highlander. Anybody remember that show? Whatever happenned to Adrian Paul?

Alex, there was a Highlander straight-to-SciFi Channel movie a couple of Saturdays ago.

Moonlight was awful, and a little bit creepy, and not in a fun way. Can the era of voice-over heroes end now? Burn Notice does it tolerably well, but this show was particularly heavy-handed with it.

Alex,

Deb was happy that there was a new serial killer in town because she wanted a change to catch him.

It is part of her healing process.
