Summer has
left us without even a goodbye, and fall is in full swing. When this happened
is beyond me. As a matter of fact my father texted me today to say it was snowing
where they live. Brrr. So while nature’s seasons changed so did television
programming. Gone are the shows that filled the slots of the big shots. The
little shows are out, and the big ones are back in. Or are they?
One show
that I looked forward to coming back on was Castle. I love the twists and wit
associated with that show. Or should I say I used to love it? I don’t know what
happened but the first couple shows of the new season had me pulling my hair
out. What a complete turnaround. It went from first to worst. (On my list at
least!)
How about
The Good Wife? The first season I loved. Then it seemed like the plot was on a
turntable going round and round. The same thing happening season after season.
I can say the same thing about The Mentalist. Can you people please catch Red
John already?
Okay. Grey’s
Anatomy. I know this is based on doctors in a hospital, but it has gotten gory.
And it seems every show someone dies now. I want more romance! (Imagine that.J) I
will say, however, that I’m glad that Meredith and McDreamy are still together,
and they seem to be going strong. The only way I would like to see that
relationship go awry is if they brought me onto the show to be McDreamy’s new
love interest. (We can all dream, can’t we?)
While I’m
pointing out my views on some shows I would like to add one more, Revenge.
*sigh* I want it to go places, but it seems to be stuck in a rut. The same
thing show after show.
Is it just
me? Am I being too critical of our “entertainment” industry? I’m sorry. Maybe I
got up on the wrong side of the bed this morning. So let’s turn it around and
look at what is new and upcoming.
Grimm
starts Friday night, and although the subject content is usually not one of my
favorites I like the show a lot. Speaking of not normally one of my favorites I’ve
been watching one about witches. The Witches of East End has captured me. I
love that is has a split between funny and serious. Every Sunday I find myself
looking forward to that show.
Sleepy
Hollow, Once Upon a Time, and Blacklist seem to be doing well. The Voice gets
talked about a lot. Of course I haven’t even spoken of The Walking Dead, or
Sons of Anarchy.
I have many
shows on my DVR to catch up on, including Modern Family and Elementary.
It sounds
like I watch a lot of television, doesn’t it? Eek. Might I add that throughout
a lot of these shows I read too!
What kind of television shows do you like
to watch? Do you like comedies? Reality television? Educational shows? Modern
day fairy-tales? Dramas? Which ones did I forget to mention? What shows are on
your DVR?
Weekly
Planting Information- Fall is a good time to clean up your
garden. Here are some tips to help you with your landscape.
§ Remove all rotten
fruit from the ground around trees—infestations last through winter.
§ Mulch to maintain
soil quality, using weeds (but not those with seeds), cocoa hulls, grass
clippings, leaves, and straw.
§ Plant cover crops
after harvest to correct soil compaction.
§ Confuse pathogens by
mapping out a garden plan for crop rotation.
§ Protect perennials
from frost heaving by mulching after the ground freezes.
§ Protect ornamentals
such as azaleas and berry bushes from bud-eating deer with deer netting.
