I find it very retarded that CW tries to call this a "season premier" when they've air a brand new episode EVERY SINGLE WEEK for that last 7 or 8 years.

Ah. This must mean they've made a new show opening. Other than that, it should be the sos.

ALL SUNDAY NIGHT:
SEASON PREMIERES
The Simpsons B- - Marc Bernardin
"Post-Simpsons movie, are we launching into a year buoyed by creative rejuvenation, or one in which every good idea was sapped by said movie? Judging by the premiere, neither. Once you get past the spiffy opening sequence - which has Bart skateboarding through a Springfield recovering from the Dome Incident of the film – The Simpsons slips back into its very routine routine. Homer's desire to live a private-jet lifestyle leads to the hiring of a life coach (voiced by Stephen Colbert), standard boneheaded Marge deception, and more cranial trauma. In other words, pretty much exactly the same as it has been for the last four or five years: mildly diverting at best."
10-11PM CBS, TV-14
Season Premiere
"Shark"
"The hit show's second season gets under way, and Kevin Pollak shows up as a new district attorney."
8:30-9PM Fox, TV-PG-LV
Season Premiere
"King of the Hill"
"Hank takes Bobby to a football game to give him a taste of the violence that often accompanies college sports."
9-10PM CBS, TV-14-LV
Season Premiere
"Cold Case"
"An episode that features Nirvana songs throughout, or what's known in my household as "The Total Effing Apocalypse."
9-10PM Fox, TV-14-DLV
Season Premiere
"Family Guy"
"Is there anything scarier than a talking dog? Yes! A talking baby! How do you people watch this show??"
Good question.

And Ted's landed a wild child (Mandy Moore) who seems estranged from feminine hygiene altogether. Mandy's great, but it's a tramp stamp and the first sighting of the titular mom that make this episode memorable. B+ – Henry Goldblatt"

9-10PM Fox, TV-14-DL
Season Premiere
"House"
"If you like House, you will continue to like House, as the twisty premiere veers little from the show's ah-ha!-oh-no!-eureka! formula, with a case involving a woman who got smushed in a building collapse. Fine and good, but it's the lighter notes that the drama is handling so deftly: Here, Dr. Wilson (the reliably great Robert Sean Leonard) tries to blackmail the staff-less House (Hugh Laurie) into hiring a new team by kidnapping his beloved guitar - leaving threatening ransom notes and murmuring giddy provocations like "You ever tighten a guitar string really, really slowly?" Fiendish! B+ - Gillian Flynn"
9-10PM CBS, TV-14-LV

"Jonas is MIA, Bob is CIA, and Ryan's in the hot seat. Will the guys ever get back together? Um, now might be a good time to note that the show is called The Unit."

Tonight, tonight...
SEASON PREMIERE
"Ugly Betty"
"We'll have to wait to get more soap with our opera. At the moment, Dad's stuck in Mexico, Hilda's locked in her bedroom, and Daniel's in the hospital, leaving Betty (Emmy winner America Ferrera) to soldier through the maudlin, while Marc (Michael Urie) and Amanda (Becki Newton) pick up the funny as they dig deeper into Faye Summers'...affairs. The major problem with this episode? Every scene with Hilda (Ana Ortiz) and fiancé Santos (Kevin Alejandro), who was shot in last season's finale. Their story line is as cruelly manipulative as it is unnecessary."
8-9PM NBC, TV-14
Season Premiere
"My name is Earl"
"Earl’s not too fond of la vida inmate."
8-9PM The CW
Season Premiere
"Smallville"

"CSI"
"Everyone's doing their part to find Sara, searching her house, the lab...Heck, we even checked the credits. Nothing."

10-11PM CBS, TV-PG-LVSEASON PREMIERE
"Numb3rs" B - Lynette Rice
"This premiere - directed by Tony Scott - wraps up a cliff-hanger involving Colby Granger (Dylan Bruno), the hunky FBI agent who admitted in the season 3 finale that he'd turned spy. Enter Charlie (David Krumholtz) and his fancy talk of a trust metric, another convenient math formula that helps Don (Rob Morrow) and his team realize that double agents with nice biceps deserve a second chance. As usual, the talented cast is more interesting than the story, but the episode deserves a look-see, if only because it features Val Kilmer as a guest spook."
8-9PM CBS, TV-PG-L
Season Premiere
"Ghost Whisperer"
"Yet another ghost (!) hates on Melinda like a flat-chested girl."
9-11PM NBC, TV-14-DSV

"Desperate Housewives" B - Nicholas Fonseca
"Guess what? Wisteria Lane has a new neighbor! Guess what else? She has a dark secret! If this sounds painfully familiar, stick around anyway: This newbie is played by Dana Delany, whose scenes opposite Marcia Cross hint at some delicious bitchery ahead - and give this sagging show a welcome shot in the keister. "
7-9PM ABC, TV-PG

"At least you'll have pretty scenery to cry over: Ty and the gang hit Hawaii."

10-11PMShowtime, TV-MA
Season Premiere
Brotherhood
Missing The Sopranos? You won't be after taking in the season 2 premiere of Brotherhood. The Caffee clan is back, at least physically if not completely mentally. Yes, Irish mobster Michael (Jason Isaacs) is alive but suffering from the effects of having his head bashed in during last season's finale. Meanwhile, brother/state rep Tommy (Jason Clarke) is navigating treacherous waters after learning the feds are after him and that his wife is a coke-snorting cheater. (Blimey!) C'mon, you want a must-see Mob drama? It's right here for the having. Family dysfunction hasn't been this rich and complex since my TV screen cut to black. A - Dalton Ross

8-8:30PM The CW, TV-PG SEASON PREMIERE
"Everybody Hates Chris" A- - Lynette Rice
"After an interminable two-year wait, The CW's dream has finally come true: Chris Rock will guest in the series he helped to create! Tonight, Rock, who continues to narrate the consistently funny show, plays a guidance counselor who gives Chris some tough love over his poor performance on a proficiency exam. Chides Rock's sour Mr. Abbott, ''The way I see it, you're about two bad decisions away from a life of crime!'' No, the real crime is how many of you people are still ignoring this show."
8-8:30PM CBS, TV-PG-DL
Season Premiere
"How I Met Your Mother"
"Pretending to be tourists to pick up chicks will get you nowhere, Motherboys (though actually being a tourist - like guest star Enrique Iglesias - doesn't hurt). The attraction of travelin' men is (1) they can't understand us, (2) they eventually leave. Actually, that kinda sounds like you."

8-9PM HBO, TV-14 SEASON PREMIERE
"Five Days" A- - Gillian Flynn
"Busy and gripping, this five-part mystery starts its ticking clock with the disappearance of a British mum and her two children on the way to visit Great-granddad (The Equalizer's Edward Woodward). The first episode sets up a boatload of interwoven characters: a husband under suspicion, an ambitious reporter, a Good Samaritan who gets overinvolved, and myriad shocked detectives, including ITALIC "Songcatcher's"] Janet McTeer. The sheer number of plotlines can be overwhelming, but the images - flowers dropped on the side of the road, a dusty van sliding away — are relentlessly riveting. And the series only gets better from here."
8-8:30PMNBC, TV-PG
Season Premiere
"The Singing Bee"
"Pop quiz: Is this the one hosted by the nonthreatening black guy or the guy from 'N Sync you never fantasized about? Latter."
