Fall TV Update: 'Dirty Sexy Money' is Best New Show

buddytv · 10-22-2007, 04:35 AM

Dirty Sexy Money came out of nowhere. All the summer buzz surrounded shows like Pushing Daisies, Chuck, Reaper, Bionic Woman, and even Aliens in America. Why did Dirty Sexy Money, with it's preposterous cast and impressive behind-the-scenes experience, sneak up on us? A few weeks before Dirty Sexy Money premiered on ABC, I got a chance to view the pilot. It was an impressive hour of TV, teeing up an enticing series premise with precision and intrigue, sprinkling in the necessary exposition and back stories with ease. Still, I was too high off the hype for Pushing Daisies and Chuck. In my initial new series rankings, my top four looked like this: 1) Chuck 2) Pushing Daisies 3) Dirty Sexy Money 4) Reaper. Recalibrating those standings after a full month of Fall TV, those rankings now look like this: 1) Dirty Sexy Money 2) Pushing Daisies 3) Reaper 4) Chuck 637) Big Shots 7,234,672) Viva Laughlin. Pushing Daisies is great, don't get me wrong. I love the show and I love that such madness exists on network TV, but Dirty Sexy Money is easily the best new series of the year.

On my list, DSM has moved up from 4th to 2nd (still behind Pushing Daisies). I definitely agree that it's a show that flew under a lot of people's radars...but not me, as in our Fall TV Guide, I predicted it would be a Surprise Hit.

I prefer Bionic Woman...

Dirty Sexy Money is my number 1. I agree that while Pushing Daisies is amazing, DSM so far takes the cake. My list: 1)DSM 2)Pushing Daisies 3)Gossip Girl 4)Samantha Who 4)Private Practice 5)Big Shots 1,394,594) Chuck.

DSM has been a top pick of mine since the summer. The more I read and viewed the promos I was hyped up. However, the first episode was a little slow, but I stuck it out and last week, the episode was the best of the season. Very Dynast and looking forward to an intense showdown between Lisa and Karen. Don't dissapoint your aduience DSM

Totally agree. DSM is the best so far. I even throw Dirty Sexy Money Party for a few friends every Wednesday. Even the spoilers for the season are juicy. Plus, you can never go wrong with Peter Krause and Donald Sutherland.

I keep wavering...Pushing Daisies or DSM? It's a tough one.
