So what is the deal with all this new teevee? I mean really. If you know me, you know I don’t really watch teevee. I’m the girl who watches all the episodes of CSI on Spike’s weekend marathon while I’m sitting at my desk writing or reading blogs.

First of all, on the subject of CSI, I can’t imagine this show without Grissom or Sara. Well, Grissom anyway. And Laurence Fishburne? Please. Just because you plop a movie star into a teevee series does not guarantee that you will continue to have the ratings you once did. Grissom was quirky. Fishburne is bad ass. This is not translating to me.

Second, I’m not gonna watch this season. At least, not until it’s on Spike. Okay, maybe I’ll sneak in a little watching if Motley puts it on. But I already know I’m not gonna like it. They let my bug man go! How can I enjoy the show now? Oh… wait… George Eads is still on, right? Ahh. Maybe the show will be okay after all. I mean, eye candy is what I am ALL about.

Speaking of eye candy, I signed up for this gig here with one thing in mind only. In Plain Sight. This is the only show you are gonna get me to watch. BUT I GOTTA WAIT UNTIL 2009? WTF? Season premiere is in the summer of 2009. I guess I can go back and watch the old season’s shows again on my computer… drooling all the while over Christian de la Fuente.

You did know that’s why I watched In Plain Sight last season, right? I had to see the hottie. He spins my wheels. A lot. I will suffer through a crime drama to drool over him. Okay, maybe I kinda like Mary a little too. And the dude with the deadpan face who knows everything. Um. Yeah. So, I kinda like this show…still not a teevee person.

At any rate, this writer of vampire fiction and erotica is not watching True Blood. Not because I don’t have HBO, although I don’t. Not because I don’t wanna go hang with Hilly to watch it, cause I loves me some Hilly in any capacity. Really, it’s just two things. One, I could never get into the Sookie Stackhouse books. (I have ‘em in pdf if anyone wants to read them. Oh, and I’ll send you Twilight too if you want.) Two, I hate hype. And this show has been hyped to the gills. True, the website with the synthetic blood drinks was cool, but only for about a day. After that, it was a big snooze.

Last year, my co-worker spent all her time grinding me to watch “the vampire show”. Some Moon something show. I never caved in. Then one day my friend Jen told me, watch it this week, Victor Webster is on! I turned it on and proceeded to start writing. I kept looking over at the TV, not able to get into the story of the vampire who was hired by some dude to follow his wife around cause he thought the wife was cheating. Ho freaking hum. Boring storyline… until OMG! It’s Victor Webster! I gotta look at Vic! So I watch two or three minutes of the show while Vic’s filling the screen… Then the commercial came on, and I turned the TV off. I saw Vic. That was enough for me.

My co-worker is like, I don’t understand. The vampire is sooooo cute. I’m like, YAWN. He’s so not my thing. Hell, I wasn’t even into Buffy. Blasphemy for you Spike and Angel fans, I know. Those two dudes? Not my thing either.

By now, you’ve figured me out, haven’t you? George Eads. YUM. I’ll watch him. CSI - check. Christian de la Fuente. Double YUM. I won’t miss him. In Plain Sight - double check. So, I’ll be back in 2009 when In Plain Sight premieres. Until then, I’m giving you back to your regularly scheduled teevee watching bloggers.
