Pushing Daisies - I thought it was quirky and charming, and really funny. The lead guy is dead hot, and the not-quite-girlfriend that he cannot touch was so dryly amusing. I loved it.
Journeyman - very Quantum-Leap-meets-Early-Edition, but a bit more mysterious. It's been made clear that he will not know why he's timeshifting for a while, but I think the lead is interesting, and it has potential. Not excellent, but not bad either - if you can get past the initial resemblence to other (previous) genre shows.
Gossip Girl - a sophisticted New York twist on The-OC-meets-Dangerous-Liasons, the pilot wasn't bad, nor was the strongest pilot. I think it has a good deal of potential though. I'll keep an eye on it for a dozen episodes because all too often, shows get much worse (or, occasionally, much better) after the first few eps.
Back To You - Crap. Just crap. Lame, lame, lame, tired sitcom BS.
Bionic Woman - not the strongest of pilots, and the acting among most of the players is kinda weak. The lead gets much better by the end, and she has a good track record, and I loved, *loved*, LOVED Katee Sackhoff in this. She's nuts, and hot, and off-kilter amesome. I'll give it a dozen eps before I decide. I'm told that they tweaked a bit after the pilot and before the second episode, which is promising.
Private Practice - a meh followup to the meh psueo-pilot. It has potential, and a *fabulous* cast of veterans - most of which can carry a show on their own (or have). This one just needs to find it's place, so it's all up to Shondra Rimes and the writing staff here.
Chuck - loved it, and PG-rated 8PM shows are so not my usual thing. The lead is endearing and geek-chic, the blond-sexpotkickass-agent is cool, and, well, Adam Baldwin makes everything he's in better. It's fluffy and geeky and fun.
