Boring

Another season with a couple more TV-free hours...courtesy of Dancing with the Stars!!

And the major networks are baffled that the highest rated show for the last three weeks in the 18-49 category was The Walking Dead on AMC.

I personally don't watch any reality shows except American Idol because the singing is like s variety show to me. And that's probably the closest we'll ever get to a Carol Burnett Show or a Sonny & Cher Comedy Hour ever again.

You never know how good a season will be until it gets underway. I have been underwhelmed before with line-ups only to be pleasantly surprised with the actual season. On the other hand, this is no guarantee.

I tuned out the last season with the return of so many also rans for rerun of their efforts. Truth is with so many options for me now: On Demand, assorted series and movies on Blu Ray discs, Amazon Prime, Vudu, etc. I seldom watch TV networks on their schedule anymore. I use On Demand to catch up on what I wish to see. I pick and choose according to most interest and when I want.

Will we see a Hamill Camel? I have no clue what is a Zendaya. But I'm cheering for her as we have the same breed of dog. And she is dancing with my pal Val.
