His Friday must-watch (10/28)

CHUCK is back (8/7c, NBC)! Am I overly excited? Yes, probably. But it's the final season of one of my favorite shows on TV, so I'm going to drop a few exclamation points!!!

The last time we left our favorite Buy More employee, he had just jumped through a million hoops to save the love of his life Sarah (something new for him), and his best friend Morgan had put on the wrong glasses and become the Intersect. With a generous gift from Volkoff, Chuck & Sarah were about to re-build "Castle" and the Buy More. Now what will happen with Morgan as the Intersect?

I'm always curious how shows will go on when the main guy finally gets the main girl. I get that this is the final season, so things will get wrapped up, but let's think about it. 90% of the charm of Bartowski is his never-ending love and unstoppable pursuit of Sarah. Now he has her. Where will this show be without the chase? Where would Castle be if he wasn't in a constant state of tension with Beckett? The OC was always better when Ryan and Marisa weren't together. The best plot lines in Gossip Girl are the relationships that don't happen (Nate & Serena, Blair & Lonely Boy).

We'll have to see how this season pans out. Don't get me wrong, I'll definitely be tuning in every week. Just curious as to how the writers will have this one unfold.

His Tuesday must-watch (10/25)

Ok, how did I not watch this last week? I mean, here's the lead from the show's "about" page: "Will Keen's grandfather fought in WWII. Will's father fought in Vietnam. Will plays Call of Duty on his Playstation 3 and uses non-dairy hazelnut creamer." Well I'm interested.

So what does it mean to be a "real man" in today's society? Is there something wrong with enjoying a nice glass of scotch while watching a classic romantic comedy? Is it a "real man" crime to cap off a long day at the office with a solid bottle of sangiovese, some Sinatra and an episode of Gossip girl? I dont' think so. You can still be a "real man" and use Tea Tree shampoo and put hazelnut creamer in your coffee.

So tonight I'll be tuning in to Man Up! (8:30/7:30c, ABC). Time to see where these 3 guys fall on the modern-day "real man" scale.

His Tuesday must-watch (10/11)

Overall a fairly slow night for TV in my opinion, so I'll be doing some serious catching up on my DVR for most of the night (behind on Charlie's Angels, Person of Interest and Gossip Girl). It'll probably be a make or break episode for Angels and Person of Interest so we'll see how things go with last week's episodes. Sounds like most have bailed on these already.

As for my must-watch? Tonight it's a show that many of you already watch and would probably be appalled that I don't - Sons of Anarchy (10/9c on FX). I decided to take a peek at the website today to see what all the fuss is about. It reads "...illegally thriving arms business. The seduction of money, power, and blood." Count me in.

Now I'm not a big motorcycle person, but the word on the street is that you don't have to be to enjoy this show. It's received nothing but rave reviews, plus it's on FX, so it doesn't get cancelled for making parents angry (here's to you, NBC!). Sure, I'm 3 seasons and a few episodes behind, but that's why they invented Quickster, er..Netflix. Let's give it a shot.

His Monday must-watch

Welcome back Upper East-siders. The season premiere of Gossip Girl (8/7c, CW) is upon us, as is my only must-watch from the CW. I'm sure you're asking yourself "what guy watches this show, and admits it!?". Excuse me, have you seen Leighton Meester and Blake Lively?

When it first hit the air, I'll admit, I didn't watch. The wounds were still fresh from The OC getting canceled, and another teen drama was just too much to take. I heard season two was nothing to write home about, and I was actually happy I hadn't gotten involved. What was I thinking? Finally, I watched the pilot on DVD. Two months later we were all caught up and I was hooked.

Tonight, we get reacquainted with some of our favorite TV characters (they are all intriguing in their own way, which is why this show is so ridiculously good). How did Serena van der Woodsen spend her summer (undoubtedly better than all of us did)? What's going to happen with Blair, Prince Louis and Chuck Bass? We're only hours away from the next brooding Dan Humphry meltdown.

I can't wait. XOXO.

Her Wednesday must watch

Tonight's must watch? My initial thought was Modern Family. Then I smacked myself with my imaginary TV Guide. Coming off an impressive 5 Emmy wins and guaranteed to be hilarious, this show doesn't need any help in the viewership department.

So instead I lend my support to Revenge (10/9c on ABC), starring Emily VanCamp. You'll remember her as Rebecca Harper on Brothers & Sisters, who portrayed the sister of Dave Anable's character, and then somehow pulled off being his girlfriend, fiance and eventually wife after they found out they weren't related. Ick right? The funny thing is, it wasn't! And sure, the on-screen marriage, as well as their real-life relationship, may not have worked out. But anyone who can pull off that plot twist without making me want to vomit my prime time snack has a fan in me, so I can't wait to watch her as the evil yet possibly likable Amanda Clarke.

Revenge also features Connor Paolo - Eric van der Woodsen on Gossip Girl (xoxo!) - and is set in the Hamptons, which means awesome scenery, awesome fashion and deliciously-awesome attitude. Be sure to tune in!
