Gearing Up for Fall TV…So You Wanna Be a TV Blogger?

 Did you know that a slew of Fall TV comes back to the air in just about 10 days? How crazy is that? And by crazy of course I mean awesome. I’m super excited for all that the Fall brings (and I’m not just talking about the return of John Krasinski, Lee Pace and Zachary Levi…what new TV boyfriends will be added this year?).  I’m talking about finding new favorite shows, getting caught up in new stories, and falling in love with TV all over again.

As I’m sure you’ve noticed, GMMR has definitely slacked a little this summer.  It wasn’t planned but the combination of the summer weather, starting a new job, and my overall lack of TV watching meant fewer updates each day.  It was a nice break but I missed talking TV with all of you so I’m ready to kick off the Fall season.

By this time last year I had seen almost all of the Fall TV pilots.  This year…just CBS.  The after shock of the WGA strike is still very real and the networks are woefully behind on sending out screeners.  It’s too bad for them because the advanced buzz they could get from critics/bloggers and the such could really do a lot to bolster their show and perhaps help them stand out in an already oversaturated TV lineup.  By now I usually have my Fall Preview already written and this year I’ve only just started pulling together the information on what shows air what night…there’s really not much for me to actually review.  It’s kind of sad.

But no worries.  It willl all work itself over time. Everything will be fine. There’s a bunch of great new shows this season and of course there’s the much anticipated return of our favorites. Everything will be fine. (Wait, did I already say that?)

With the new season comes a few new changes here at GMMR.  Not too far in the future things will look a little different around here. I’ve been working on a new look for the site.  Nothing groundbreaking so dont’ get too excited, but I thought after 3 years a little change of pace might be nice.  Hopefully you all will like it.  And I’ve also been talking to some pretty fantastic people who might be coming on board to write for GMMR from time to time.  If it works out, I know you’ll love it.

So You Wanna Be a TV Blogger?
I’m always looking for more help. There’s a lot of TV to cover and even with my 2 DVRs I can’t even scratch the surface.  That’s where YOU come in.  This time last year I put out the call to TV lovers such as YOU to contribute to GMMR and I must say I was overwhelmed by the response.  I was touched that so many people would donate their time to help make GMMR a better community by covering their favorite shows for us.  As Fall TV approaches I thought I would once again see if anyone was interested in being a contributor to GMMR.

We are always looking for smart and witty writers to provide recaps, reviews and info on the best that TV has to offer. I wish I could say there a lot of perks…but there aren’t. Sorry. But hopefully the adoration of your readers will suffice.
