I'll be posting the premieres and notables soon, but I wanted to make sure I posted ones on the tip of my brain as they come soon.
Sunday, 10/29:
BBC America is running a Hex marathon. All nine episodes of the first (only?) season from 10 am CST to 8 pm. I only saw the pilot (have the others in my "to watch" tape pile), but the commercials had a big Buffy vibe. It was promoted heavily during its run this past summer. May be worth checking out.
Monday, 10/30
CBS is repeating the "Slutty Pumpkin" episode of How I Met Your Mother. This was the episode that sold me on the show. It was very well-written, and the show pulled me in every direction it wanted me to go (will he or won't he find her?). And check out Barney's tactic to hook up with a woman by changing costumes frequently and giving her a different pick-up line.
This is a highly recommended episode of a highly recommended show. It isn't as "sexy" as The Office or My Name is Earl, but it's one of the best-written comedies out there when it's firing on all cylinders.
Now this ep is from last year, so Ted's a lot more pathetic in that ep than he is now. Just keep that in mind.
