A List Of Things Thrown Five Minutes Ago

BEFORE THE LEAVES CHANGE:Monday marks the beginning of one of ALOTT5MA's favorite times of the year--the fall television season (though I suppose last Monday's debut of America's Toughest, Yet Somehow, Not That Interesting Jobs marked a pre-season game). It's a little strange this year, with "fall" debuts stretching from Monday (season premieres for Gossip Girl and One Tree Hill) all the way through October 22, when Stylista debuts on the CW. So, what are you looking forward to among new shows (Fringe, The Ex List, and maybe Life on Mars and My Own Worst Enemy are about it for me, though I will give 90210 a shot)? And more importantly, start thinking now for the annual cancellation pool, which promises to be tough--there's no Viva Laughlin level debacle apparent from the networks' fairly limited list of programs, and recent years of CBS's success on Monday (HIMYM excluded) demonstrates that even crappy sitcoms find love.
