It's a Brand New Me!

I'm SUPER excited about the NEW Fall season of TV shows, and even more excited that you're going to see a brand new "me."

Okay, I think we can all admit that this past season of TV shows ate the b-hole out of a donkey. It LITERALLY was so bad, it LITERALLY asked a donkey if it could feast on its b-hole - because asking a donkey first is the polite thing to do. Don't ask me how I know this. Anyway, the point is that when a TV season stinks, I sorta kinda stink, too. When left with nothing interesting to say, I often feel backed into a corner, and in a blind panic say unseemly things about the b-holes of donkeys.

That's why I'm SUPER excited about the NEW Fall season of TV shows, and even more excited that you're going to see a brand new "me." Those overly descriptive essays in which I compare certain TV shows to the interior of a syphilitic donkey's gastrointestinal system? GONE! The brand new "me" will be pleasant, well mannered, informative, and practically devoid of any donkey-related obsessive behavior. As proof, here are a few 100% donkey-free descriptions of some of the brand spankin' new shows debuting this Fall. Hee-Haw! I mean... Yahoo!

* Ringer (The CW, Tuesdays this Fall). Certainly you remember Sarah Michelle Geller, previously seen on Buffy, the Vampire Slayer and later, the unemployment line? Well, Sarah is back in a new Black Swan-ish drama/thriller in which she takes over the identity of her bitchy dead twin sis. Has Sarah's acting improved? NO, IT HASN'T! But that's okay, because this over the top soapy delight has more kick than a donkey caving in a farm boy's testicles... umm... make that "an ostrich." They kick, right?

* Hart of Dixie (The CW, Mondays this Fall). Speaking of out-of-work actresses, my 2005 crush of the year Rachel Bilson (formerly Summer from The O.C.) is the star of this fish out of water story about a fancy-pantsy New York doctor who's forced to treat hillbillies in the toothless wilds of Alabama. Expect a plethora of overdressed Southern Belles! Angry alligators! Brief love affairs with sweaty, hillbilly hunks! Unexpected compassion for her patients! And - not because I'm obsessed with them or anything, because I'm not - a donkey or two. IT'S ALABAMA. (Donkeys are their SUVs.)

* Charlie's Angels (ABC, Thursdays this Fall). A reboot of the classic sexpot cop show of the '70s, this version sports three brand new hotties (Annie Ilonzeh, Minka Kelly, and Rachael Taylor) who use their wicked secret agent skillz to knock some violent, ass-beating sense into those no-good bad guys. YOU GO, GIRLS! (Especially in those teeny bikinis. Now, where exactly are you hiding the guns?)

* Terra Nova (FOX, Mondays this Fall). The year? 2149! The problem? The earth eats donkey b-hole! (Dammit! ... Sorry.) A brave family leaves everything behind to create a new civilization in this CG-heavy drama that combines Land of the Lost, Avatar and a heapin' helping of Jurassic Park, because - that's right! - their new home is infested with ass-chomping DINOSAURS. (This show will definitely not eat donkey b-hole, because... well, who wants to eat dinosaur b-hole?)

HEE-HAW!
