New Girl (I know it is popular by fox standards but it is just too cute for me
Two Broke Girls

Free agents (i like the cast but have not liked the show so far so like I said one more chance)

GeoSatPro 36" dish with Sadoun dual KU LNB... Coolsat 5000 on motorized.... Manhattan RS1933....Directv HR34 (yes the 5 tuner monster) GeoSatPro 200 to aim dishes.... few receivers not set up yet

For me, Up All Night, Free Agents and Whitney have bitten the dust.
I like New Girl, but then I'm a Zoey Deschanel fan and love her weirdness. She's definitely my kind of weird.
2 1/2 men may very well get the boot too. I'm not impressed with the first 2 shows at all.Lloyd
Receiver : Direct (3) HR24 + MRV + VOD
HDTV : Panasonic TC-P54S1
Surround: Sony STR-DN1000 7.1 Setup

Giving Whitney a little more time. Ditto New Girl only because of Zoey. Have already deleted several others.

I booted free agents after the second episode. Up all night is going to be booted after the next episode unless it is a lot better.

I booted revenge, done with that. Up all night would probably also get the ax but it's a 30 minute show so for now it's ok. Saw Pan am last night, not bad

This has actualy been a pretty good year (first in several years) since all my new timers are still set. I like the new shows I've recorded this season: A Gifted Man, Terra Nova, Unforgettable, Person of Interest, Prime Suspect and Revenge. Of course, I had plenty of timers to set since I cleaned-out all the old timers from last season: $..! My Dad Says (liked the show), Law & Order: LA (wasn't a fan), The Event (kept the timer but didn't like the show), The Defenders (loved the show), The Whole Truth (smart but wasn't around long enough to like or dislike), Detroit 1-8-7 (liked it at first...but got old quickly), Human Target (I liked this show), Medium (I liked this show, but it's time had come) and Two and a Half Men (so bad it is painful to watch).
Of the new shows, here is the most likely deletion order:
- Prime Suspect (cop show with an NBC feel...not bad, but not great and I don't have time for it)
- Terra Nova (fake looking dinosaurs, cheesy acting and predictable plot) will probably be deleted after a few more episodes
- Revenge (I was hooked by the promo ads...and I'm surprising still liking it) if it gets to soapy
- A Gifted Man (I like it and I don't see deleting it anytime soon)
- Unforgettable (the show has me hooked)
- Person of Interest (best new show in broadcast primetime)
Once treasured shows on he cusp:
- CSI: Crime Scene Investigation (I can't stand Ted Danson is his new role as DB/Moonbeam)
- Two and a Half Men (already deleted - el stinko!)
- CSI: Miami (I started watching it again last year but I seem to have no interest in the show this season)
- Fringe (I'll probably watch this "final season" but the story is terrible so far)
- America's Got Talent (deleted...tired of the least talented singers always winning)
- Blue Bloods (Okay, I like Tom Selleck but I've never embraced this show - watch 1 episode per month maybe)
- House (started watching last season and loved it...may not hold my attention this season and after personnel changes)
- Law & Order: SVU (started watching 2-3 years ago...and it's not the same without Detective Whatshisface leaving the show)
