''The Nine''
Premieres Wednesday, October 4th at 10pm. Ten people are held hostage in a bank heist and one is killed. The rest of the nine embark down a long road to recovery. Everyone responds differently. Likely, there will be conflict. We think? Starring Tim Daly, Scott Wolf, Chi McBride, Lourdes Benedicto, Camille Guaty, Jessica Collins, Kim Raver, John Billingsley, Dana Davis, Owain Yeoman.

''Brothers & Sisters''
Premieres Sunday, September 24 at 10pm. Uhm, seriously all-star cast play a messy family who can’t seem to get it together. We hear rumors of backstage drama, but check out the cast. We’re kinda beside ourselves excited to see it. With an all-star cast Including Calista Flockhart, Rachel Griffiths, Sally Field, Ron Rifkin, Patricia Wettig, Balthazar Getty, Dave Annable, Matthew Rhys, John Pyper-Ferguson, Tom Skerritt and Sarah Jane Morris.

''Help Me Help You''
Premiering Tuesday, September 26th, at 9:30pm. Sitcom about a shrink who needs a shrink. They seem to be going for Huff meets Bob Newhart – both brilliant shows. Except this one doesn’t have either Blythe Danner or Bob Newhart. Starring Ted Danson, Jere Burns, Suzy Nakamura, Jim Rash, Charlie Finn, Darlene Hunt.

''Ugly Betty''
Premieres Thursday, September 28th at 8pm. Everybody loves an ugly girl who’s no nonsense and the unsung hero of the workplace. Especially when she’s cheerful and good natured. But can’t we help her find a man? With America Ferrera, Eric Mabius, Vanessa Williams, Mark Indelicato, Tony Plana, Ana Ortiz, Ashley Jensen, William Abadie, Alan Dale, Michael Urie, Becki Newton.

“Men in Trees”
Premiering Friday, September 15th at 9pm. ABC seems to be running with a theme here. This one seems to be Huff meets Bob Newhart meets Northern Exposure. And it has Anne Heche as a “relationship” coach in an Alaskan village where she can’t find a man. With Anne Heche, James Tupper, John Amos, Seana Kofoed, Sarah Strange.

Hey - I don't know if Owain Yeoman would actually read this site! But if you do Owain just wanted to say hi and congratulate the lad that I met 7 years ago in the small town in South Wales called Chepstow, in achieving your dream and putting Chepstow on the map! Can't find any other way of potentially contacting you so I am aware that this may look a little psycho but I don't care. Might bump into you at Christmas in Cheppers if you can lower your standards that far now your famous : ) Take care
