Tuesday Night TV

Well, the season premiere of NCIS was...meh. The grieving period for Kate was woefully short, and the "new" team member and NCIS director who once bonked Gibbs just screams ridiculous, over-the-top melodrama. Now, instead of worrying about the suspect of the week and the bad, bad thing they did, we'll be force-fed heaping spoonfuls of stale romantic tension between Gibbs and a fugly Lauren Holly. Gag me with a rusty spoon.

Supernatural was still fun, but the writing is very choppy and mish-mash; some scenes are spot-on, and others are on fast forward. More exposition would be nice, too. So, the intrepid bogey hunters are on the trail of a Wendigo? Great. What are they, and how did they come to be in Colorado? Did they hop an Amtrak and munch on unsuspecting passengers in the sleeper cars? And if Wendigos are primarily a Northern bogey, how is it that the Anasazi Indians, a Southwestern tribe, had symbols to protect against them? Little consistency and research from the writer, please.

And just because I like the man-candy:
