So far this season has started pretty slow for me. 'On the lot' has been on for, I think, 3 shows now. It's going to have to do something pretty spectacular to make me enjoy it as much as all the other Mark Burnett productions. I don't like the hostess, she seems to lack any finesse. They are using the whole American idol format to introduce, give numbers to vote and then the whole elimination show. They could do the show in 15 minutes but they drag it out to an hour.

But I am looking forward to Thursday night for 'Pirate master'. From the website and all the trailers, it seems like it will be a good show. The website does warn you that there will be some degree of the haves and have nots. The captain and his crew are the haves and the other guys have to do as he asks like swab the decks, etc. But the searching for the gold and eliminations will be exciting. From what the website looks like, they have some pretty authentic charcters as contestants.

There is another Bachelor show coming out soon also, something about 'all about age'. I think the bachelorettes are divided between young and middle age for the one guy to woo into his lair. I have never been a fan of the show. I guess 'cause you can't find true love on a TV reality show.

Anybody else watching any other shows? I hear Canadian Idol is starting soon.
