New project: Complete fall TV coverage


Or as I like to call it "We are insane."

Here at Inscaped, we have covered television with great gusto and enthusiasm. Our original show "Viewpoints On..." was built on "Lost" and "Heroes" coverage.

Television was our bread and butter.

So, using that thinking we have decided to cover television in a more comprehensive way.

Every new show to come out will be covered in some way.

It might not be a full on addiction like "Lost," but each show will be reviewed once and given a pass or fail decision.

In some ways we are also looking for that next big show to obsess over.

But, we decided to mix it up a bit. Instead of fighting over who gets to cover "Undercovers" or "Nikta," we thought some random fun would be interesting.

I found an online program called "The Hat" and we entered 28 new shows into it. Then the program shuffled the shows into a random order.

One by one we had the program "pull a show out of the hat" and we would cover that show. We did this for two shows each.

Here are the random picks:

Tim - "Hellcats" and "Raising Hope"
Stephanie - "Outlaw" and "Bleep my Dad Says"
Candace - "Hawaii 5-0" and "The Defenders"

We then picked shows ala elementary school picking dodgeball team.

Here is the end result:

Tim - "Blood Dolphins," "Blue Bloods," "Body of Proof," "Law and Order: LA," "No Ordinary Family," "Teach: Tony Danza," "The Event" and "The Whole Truth."

Stephanie - "Chase," "Detroit 1-8-7," "Outsourced," "School Pride," "Top Gear USA," "Top Chef: Just Desserts" and "Undercovers."

Candace - "Lonestar," "Mike and Molly," "My Generation," "Nikita," "Running Wilde" and "Terriers."

Insane? Yes.

Doable? Perhaps.

Fun? Totally.
