The Good Wife – Taking Control (S02E01)
ABC
Possibly the best new drama from last season is back for season 2. The big cliff hanger was whether Alicia would choose Peter, her cheater of a husband who’s now running for office again, or her boss, Will, who’s just a great guy (and who was amazing on the short-lived Sports Night.) Who thought Alicia would choose Will? Yeah, me neither.…
Mike And Molly – Pilot (S01E01)
CBS
We haven’t decided whether we will cover this show regularly, but we did want to give a few impressions on the pilot episode. Hello Fat Jokes. If you’re offended by them, this was definitely not the show for you. The first episode wasn’t painfully bad, but it clearly has issues. The premise is interesting enough to give it another shot, but the cliché machine was pumping on this show.

Two And A Half Men – Three Girls And A Guy Named Bud (S08E01)
CBS
Two And A Half Men is back after a summer-long debate over who the titular half is now referencing. Despite the rampant Charlie Sheen gossip, which would harm most careers, I doubt this summer’s events will have any impact on the popularity or direction of this show. With the exception of Jake’s noticeable physical differences, you could have slotted this episode in almost any season and it would hold up well. And, if you like this show, that’s a good thing. It’s as funny as ever and still unabashedly crude. Welcome back Harper men–and Berta.…

How I Met Your Mother: Shelter Island (S04E05)
CBS
I’m sure there are those on both sides of the Stella-Ted debate, but whether you think the relationship is good or bad, you have to admit that Stella fits into the show so naturally, it almost feels like there’s no guest star at all. Recently, the HIMYM team has been throwing Stella negatives to the forefront for the obvious removal of her character from the show, which sucks. I was hoping she’d stick around somehow and maybe she will..

Million Dollar Password (S01E01)
Two things I learned tonight: 1) Rachel Ray isn’t the brightest mind around 2) Regis Philbin doesn’t know Neil Patrick Harris is gay I’m not old enough to remember the original game show Password, but I have seen an incarnation of Pyramid or $10,000 Pyramid and so I get the general idea of the game. Here’s the general idea: A celebrity is matched up with a regular person. Like charades or pictionary, they are given a word (aka password) to portray to their partner, but in this case, they can only give hints in 1 word doses. For example …
