Going Up and Going Down

As you know it is renewal or death season for our favourite shows again and i thought i would just give you a quick run down of all the shows that i am interested in. This may well change as the networks sort themselves out so keep checking back.

Okay so here are the renewed:

90210- This will definitely be returning for a fourth season and was announced quite early on, shame the network could not do that for One Tree Hill. We are currently finishing the third season in the next couple of weeks.



Glee- This was renewed ages ago and although we have yet to finish the second season here in the UK you can be sure they will be back for more.

Gossip Girl- This will be finishing in the next couple of weeks and the next season looks good to go but the season after that does not look so good, as a lot of the cast have talked about moving on and they are no longer under contract.

Parenthood- This show is only just starting in the UK but was a big success in the states and they have managed to get a third season. Well done guys, i love you!

Pretty Little Liars- Okay so i have only seen  the first half of the first season because Viva are being really annoying but it has been renewed and will be back on abcfamily this summer.




The Secret Life of The American Teenager: Okay so I have really gotten into this show but i am not very far along yet, i am still trying to catch up but it looks awesome and obviously it is because the third season will finish in a couple of weeks but it has already been renewed for a fourth season.


Southland- Okay so i have only seen the first season of this but hopefully it will be coming back for more now that it has been renewed in the states for a fourth season.

True Blood- Okay so I am still catching up on this but it has been renewed for a fourth season which will be airing in the next month or so, so keep your eyes peeled.

The Vampire Diaries- This one will be coming back for more for definite, and has been renewed for the third season.

The Good Wife- Okay so i am still only on the first season but it is a cert that this will be back for a third season.


Melissa and Joey (abcfamily)- They will be returning for a second season real soon, at the end of next month i think.

Heartland- Okay so I know that this show is only just showing the second season in the UK but there is much much more to come as they have just started to film season 5.



Nikita- After milking the decision for all its worth they have finally confirmed the renewal for the second season.

One Tree Hill- Although the eighth season has yet to be aired in the UK they have finally been confirmed for another season.
















Maybes:

Make it or Break it- This will just finish the current season on E4 next week but abcfamily is already showing the next season so that one is good for at least another season. But things are not looking so good for the third season especially with one of the stars having left the show at the end of season 2.

Desperate Housewives looks like it should do well and come back for what is it now? the EIGHTH season, we are only just on the second half of season seven here but I think it should be back for more and more and more....

The Mentalist- they would be crazy to canncel this but still nothing has been confirmed, so fingers crossed.

Hellcats- Okay so this has just finished its first season in the states and it is part way through here on MTV but I don't have MTV so I have yet to see it but i am looking forward to it.

Leverage- This has been renewed for season 4 previously in the year but season 5 is still unclear but i would not be surprised.







Its a Gonner: 


Life Unexpected- This is still listed on the CW site but the producer and cast have all moved on to other projects, also the fact that the second season was only shown in the afternoons here in the UK suggests even if it does come back it will be a record programme.





Brothers and Sisters- There were rumours about it coming back but it did not work out for them.

The Event- It's a gonner and it left us even more confused than we were watching it.

Human Target- They just managed a second season but their luck ran out when getting a third.







Newbies:

Switched at Birth- This is a  show on abcfamily and has not yet been picked up by anyone in the UK but it looks good. It is about yes you guessed it, two girls who were switched at birth and of course have now grown up in two totally different places and families but they are trying to work things out and get along.

The Nine Lives of Chloe King- This is a bit of a supernatural drama that abcfamily have come up with, kind of a younger cat woman from the trailers, this has also not been picked up by anyone in the UK but hopefully it will be, it looks good.



Charlie's Angels- This is a remake of the original TV show done by abc in America, it has yet to be picked up in the UK yet but i feel sure that it will be soon.

Suburgatory- This looks hilarious and it is on the abc in America which has made some of the best comedy TV shows. It has yet to be picked up in the UK but i hope it is:




Revenge: This looks hilarious and of course it stars the woman who played Rebecca in Brothers and Sisters so i am quite excited. Please please pick this up in the UK. Maybe More 4?



Once Upon a Time:
This is by the same people who made Lost so i am not completely sure but it looks interesting. What do you think?



Last Man Standing- This looks hilarious and i really hope it comes to the UK pretty damn soon:



Chalies Angels- Girl power! Okay so i don't think it is going to be amazing but it will be entertaining enough for an hour a week i think:



Apartment 23: Okay so it has got one of the girls from Gilmore Girls and it looks hilarious so i am happy, i will be watching when it moves overseas:



Awake: This looks amazing, and totally confusing but i will definitely be watching this when it gets picked up over here, although it kind of looks like it could be quite sad.



Grimm- This looks really good, i like the idea of real life and fairytales mixing together, i just hope that it is as good as it looks:


Franklin and Bash:
This looks hilarious! i really hope that TNT manage to get this to the UK soon, maybe 5*?


Breakout Kings: Okay so this looks really interesting, it does not look like other cop shows:



New Girl: This looks hilarious!



I hate my teenage daughter:

Heeeeeyyyyy!

Okay so i know i have been neglecting my blog recently and i am sorry, i have just had so much going on right now so i will try to catch up with everything in this post, anything i forget i will add on later so be sure to check back.

Okay so in no particular order:

Glee: This is only just started back up season two waaaaay after it was shown in the US, so rrry for you guys over there but you might want to skip this bit, the same goes for people who do not want spoilers. Okay so in the first episode back we find out that although competing well in the competition at the end of last season trhey are still unpopular and as such decide they need to try a different tactic to get some new people in the club. Rachel discovers Sunshine in the bathroom and they have a bit of a sing off. Then there is Sam the new kid on the football team who performed an amazing rendition of Billionaire. The  rest of glee club has also been through some changes Tina dumped Artie for Mike and Puck got a vasectomy. That is not the only surgery that happened over the summer as Santana came back with a several sizes larger boobs. Oh and now that she's not pregnant Quinn is head Cheerio again. Then of course there is the new head football coach- well you would have to see her to believe me.




The Britney/Brittany episode was hilarious but it was great to see Britney looking better and it was also good to see Brittany get more of a chance. I have downloaded all of the songs from this episode, mainly because they were so much better than the originals although i have to say that i think i have the originals already on the I Pod.


 Okay then we have the third episode which i have to say was one of the worst i have seen. maybe it is because i am not a big religious person, person i just didn't really get it and i am sorry to say that this is one of the first episodes i haven't followed up with downloading ANY of the songs. Upcoming episode tonight is entitled Duets, and i have to say looks really good.




90210: Okay so the first couple of episodes in this series have been amazing and i look forward to the rest of the series and all the twists and turns they can throw at this show, i really can't be bothered with a full recap of all of the episodes but her is my fave part so far:

But there has also been some amazing drama, first of all we have the earthquake at school on the first day back no less. This brought with it a great new episode especially seeing Liam and Annie together and finding out what they both did with their summers from hell. Then of course we have the whole Mr Cannon situation with Naomi but it hink as sad as the subject is it will make for some great storylines and episodes to follow.



Then of course we have the introduction of Evan Ross onto the show as Charlie, Annies new love interest but Annie has other things on her mind. Annie's family is in a lot of finanicial trouble but gets an offer from her part time emplyer she cannot refuse.




















Naomi, after coming into her trust fund throws herself into her lavish eighteenth birthday party only to find out that keeping her friends in the dark about what happened to her is actually pushing them away. She eventually comes clean to Silver and after a tense moment with Annie Silver lets the other two in on the secret, upsetting Naomi at first but once she realises they are still on her side things settle down.

Oscar the new guy with the adoringly fake british accent turns up as an old friend of Ivy's making Dixon jealous even though Oscar is actually sleeping with Ivy's mum, adrienna's producer but he still manages to cause friction.


 New Episode airs Tuesday at 9pm on E4.











Brothers and Sisters has returned to More 4 along with The Good Wife but i am still catching up with both of these iam afraid so i probably won't be blogging about the current series at the moment, i am sorry but i have a life!

One Tree Hill: Now i thought the new series would be back in time for the crossover episode with Life Unexpected but it does not look like it, Oh Well i was really looking forward to the new episode i have been cheating though and wtching all the promos on the CW site. Not to fear though i am getting my One Tree Hill fix daily on E4, I think it is now in season 4, last week was The second of the Naley weddings.

Life Unexpected: Okay so i am so excited season 2 started at the end of last week Thursday i think, and OMG what an awesome season opner. SPOILERS!Okay so in the first episode we see Kate and Ryan in their honeymoon phase and just to spread the love around Bug proposes to Lux just in time for the hunky stranger (Shaun Sipos, Melrose Place) to turn up at the bar and distract her completely, i have to say i like this guys chances, she does not want to get married to Bug.

  Then in the whole theme of drama the other new stranger, bar tender, turns up (Arielle Kebbel, Gilmore Girls, Vampire Diaries) and burns down Bazes Bar after spending the night with Baze. Oh and just to throw another spanner in the works Kate and Ryan get a new Co Host. And woah shock ending hot guy from the bar is actually hot teacher!
I will do further updates as i watch them, i am sooo excited.









Gilmore Girls: Okay so i know that yet again i am behind on my updated blog post but i am hoping to catch up over the next coupple of weeks, please forgive me.

Skins: Okay so i am afraid after some really poor reviews of the new season in the UK i have decided not to bother with skins and just keep the fond memories of the previous series but i am still looking to try out the American version for size, with all the media attention it is getting i really want to see that it is as bad as they say.

Everwood: This is well into the second season now is just keeps getting better and better i think i am in love with this show, the charcaters are all so believable and the storylines are down to earth.

Vampire diaries: Returns this week on the first of Feb- Tomorrow and i cannot wait!

Gossip Girl: Also returning this week on wednesday night at 9pm on itv2.

Make it or Break it: What can i say? This show just keeps getting better and better! I love it.
