Does it feel like every commercial for a new show this season is filled with estrogen? There are women all over my TV, and I must say that I’m loving it. I’m glad women who are actually funny are finally getting the the recognition they deserve. I loved the premiere of 2 Broke Girls, and not because I’m girl-biased (because I am a girl, duh), it was because it was an actually funny show.

I’m excited laugh my face off these season. These shows aren’t just going to be funny to women because women wrote them. I bet everyone will love Whitney and The New Girl, not just people with ovaries. TV’s women writers are ruling our screens this fall and you can meet them all right now.

I’m going to spend more hours watching new fall show premieres this month than I am going to spend in class. I’m a TV junkie equipped with a comfortable couch and a full DVR.

But I’m sick of watching TV alone with my cat. I want to spice up how I watch these premieres, even if it’s only for a month. Here’s a few ways to watch the new premieres and have an awesome time with your friends. Read More »

With the loss of summer vacation, sleeping-in and homework-free days does come a few perks. The excuse to buy a new coat. The loss of dry, messy, beach hair. And the return of good TV. (And not a moment too soon. I’m one DVR’d episode of Bachelor Pad away from hopping on a plane to strangle Casey myself.)

That’s right ladies, your favorite shows — like Glee and Gossip Girl — are coming back. And they’re bringing with them a few new friends. But which ones will be sitting at the cool table and which will be kicked to the curb before November sweeps? CollegeCandy breaks it down for you ladies right now. Read More »

Summer’s almost over and fall’s just around the corner (say it ain’t so!), so while you pack up your plastic bins and gear up for the new school year, just remember that there’s always one good thing about the fall: the new TV line-up. It’s finally that time of year when the channels stop playing re-runs and start actually showing new content.

That being said, most new shows rarely make it past the first season… or even the first few episodes (“The Hasselhoffs,” anyone?). In order to cut out the fat and find out what shows are really worth your time this autumn, you should turn to the critics.

Last night, after going for a run in such intense wind that I was basically running in place for 45 minutes, I was exhausted. My legs hurt, my face hurt (windburn is a real thing, yo!), and I could barely get up to pour myself a bowl of cereal let alone do anything remotely productive (like go to the bathroom). So what did I do? I brought a box of cereal to the couch and settled in for a night of TV. (And I held my pee.)

Except there wasn’t anything on TV to watch. I gave up on Gossip Girl a long time ago (something the show’s creators also should have done) and Monday nights don’t really offer up anything else. Then I tried looking on my DVR and it was….empty. Like, literally. There wasn’t one thing on there. Not even an old episode of House Hunters International! I was forced to spend the next two hours playing Angry Birds.

And it looks like that’s how I’ll be spending my entire summer. Well, playing Angry Birds and counting down the days until Fall TV starts once again. I mean, have you seen the new Fall lineup? It looks amazing. There’s going to be female-centric comedies! And dramas! And Jack Bauer (OK, so Keefer Sutherland, but same diff)!

Click here to see all the goodness that’s a-comin’ and GET. EXCITED.

Yeah, OK, it’s four months away, but when all we’ve got is Glee reruns and True Life marathons coming our way, we all need something to hold onto.

Labor Day weekend has come and gone, and what’s left of your tan is probably beginning to fade. Add that to the fact that the first week of classes (When you don’t actually have to do anything but collect syllabuses and catch up with friends.)  has been replaced by actual classes, and you’re probably pulling a Danny Zuko and wishing longingly for summer nights.

But autumn isn’t all bad, and here’s why.

1. The Weather. Here on the east coast, we broke records with the sweltering summer heat. And I’m not going to lie; I took full advantage of that warm weather. But sitting in class in weather that’s meant for the beach? Like I’d ever be able to pay attention. I’m eternally grateful that the temperatures dropped just as I’m forced to hit the books. Plus, it gives you an excuse to buy that cute fall jacket you’ve been eying since July.

2. The Pumpkin Spice Lattes. They’re back. Yesterday’s trip to my friendly neighborhood Starbucks confirmed as much. Starbucks has also introduced the Toffee Mocha, along with the Pumpkin Cream Cheese Muffin and the Pumpkin Scone. Its fall food at its best. But if you’re not quite as caffeine crazed  as I am, you could always try an old standby. Caramel Corn. Pumpkin Pie. Apple Pie. Caramel Apples. Apple Cider. Take your pick.

3. The New TV. I love a good reality TV meltdown as much as the next girl, but by the time August rolls around I’m ready for some good old fashion scripted drama. From Glee to Gossip Girl, your old favorites are returning. Don’t you want to watch the new cast of Dancing with the Stars make complete and total fools of themselves? Or find out if Derek actually recovers from the Seattle Grace shooting? Your wait is almost over. Read More »

There are plenty of things I’ll miss about the summer. But the bad TV won’t be one of them. I don’t know about you ladies, but I don’t think I’d be able to survive another week of badly written summer dramas, or so-good-it’s-bad-but-it’s-really-really-bad reality TV. Thankfully, the television gods must have heard our prayers (and our curses when we saw Wipeout was on AGAIN) and have brought back all our favorite shows.

So set your DVRs and mentally prepare yourself for all the excitement (!!!), because here’s a list of what to watch, and when.

The Show You Won’t Admit You’re Watching: Vampire Diaries
Premieres: Thursday, September 9, 8:00 p.m. on The CW

Where We Left Off: Stefan, Damon, Elena, and Bonnie manage to save the town from angry vampires and walk away unscathed, just in time for Damon to show Elena his softer side, and sneak in a quick kiss too. The only problem? It wasn’t Elena. In what was easily one of the most shocking season finales, Katherine, Elena’s doppelganger, and the Salvatore brothers’ first love, returns to kill Uncle John Gilbert. While John lies in a pool of his own blood, Elena’s brother Jeremy attempts to turn himself into a vampire. Elsewhere, Caroline has been rushed to surgery after a potentially fatal car accident and Tyler attempts to figure out what made him crash the car in the first place. Catch a glimpse of the new season here.

Amidst your old favorites, there are always some new faces. It’s true for the first day of classes and it’s true for the Fall television schedule. With so many new faces this season, though, it’s not easy to decide which shows deserve that coveted slot on your DVR and which ones aren’t even worth a line on your TV guide.

CollegeCandy is here to help you sort them out. We’ve picked five new shows you won’t want to miss this year. Get your popcorn (or cookie dough – we don’t judge) ready, because Fall TV starts NOW. Read More »
