To add on on to my previous post- "Hot Properties" 1/10. IMHO, it's easily the worst new show of the entire season. Nicole Sullivan deserves so much better than that. The funniest thing about it is exaggerated pronounciation of the latina character and her comment "I've spend my entire life surrounded by wood," which was delievered in an off-handed, non-punchliney way. The rest of it was tired and cliched.

My top sitcoms, new and returning:

1. Arrested Development (far and away number 1)
2. Scrubs
3. Less Than Perfect
4. George Lopez

(those are actually the only ones I watch. I do occasionally catch Hope & Faith, but that show is simply beyond saving and has far worn out it's weak welcome.) With dramas being so good these days, sitcoms has simply got to step it up. The only sitcom I would remotely considering giving up "Lost" for is "AD," but that would be a very, very tough choice.

Those haven't even come back yet so how can they be your top returning sitcoms this season if they haven't even been on yet this season...

Yeah... and I have a feeling that both of them are gonna get canned after this season. (not nescesarily because they deserve it, but they won't pull in big numbers IMO)

Finally got around to checking out "Twins" and "Love, Inc." The former is a 4/10. The latter is a 2/10... and probably gets my vote for worst new sitcom. "Twins" might have been a 5 or 6 had they cast anybody but Melanie Griffith in the lead. She not only sucks the laughs out of pretty much every scene, but she seems to be in a completely different show than the rest of the cast.

I'm dropping "Everybody Hates Chris" to a 9, because it hasn't quite held up to its pilot; "How I Met Your Mother" to a 4, because I don't like shows about stalkers; and "Hot Properties" to a 6, because they recast one of the funnier actresses in it, while leaving one with no comic timing to speak of. Even with the recasting, I still think "Hot Properties" is the only decent multi-camera sitcom premiering this fall. Too bad its network isn't the least bit behind it.

Oh, and then there's "Supernatural." Which is still created by Eric Kripke.

I'm 33, thanks for noticing. I can see where the fine grammar and perfect spelling might have thrown you for a loop in regards to my age. You see, like most people over the age of 12, I do try to make some kind of conscious effort to actually, you know, know what I'm talking about. This is because I would probably be pretty embarrassed to be hoisted on my own petard -- and in a public forum, no less. Of course, people deal with embarrassment differently. I've heard that there are those who don't know what they're talking about who, failing to make any kind of compelling argument for their inaccurate case, choose instead to lash out at and make puerile, baseless personal attacks against the more knowledgeable people who did. I guess the truth hurts.

Don't forget to watch "My Name Is Earl" this Tuesday at 9:00pm (8:00pm Central)! Best new sitcom of the year!

actually my comment was in reference to your childish attitude, obnoxious comments, your need to attack others to compensate for your own insecurities, and instigate arguments for no reason other than to make yourself seem to be some sort of self-described expert...

you HAVE hoisted yourself up by your own petard - but the question is can you be big enough to let yourself down?

Well... I can see how they can dislike them, but 0/10 is harsh! Especially when you have Hope & Faith as well as Reba at 9/10.

The War At Home 3/10 - Bernie Mac and Malcom should get better treatment than this crap

Kitchen Confidential (refuse to watch)- nothing to watch at 8:30 on Monday
How I Met Your Mother 0/10- nothing to watch at 8:30 on Monday
