I don't have the time to look for the first reference to Men In Trees, so I'm doing what we're supposed to do in forums anyway and putting a topic in a thread of its own!

Hulabird,

Have you watched the first episode?

Tonight (right now for me), ABC has aired a repeat of the first show and is airing the 2nd one.

What are your impressions of the show?

I wonder if Benrubi will die on ER or appear in both these shows at the same time?

Pardon my language, but it Sux!! The lead female character is completly miscast.
There are some other really good actors (esp. the bartentender) but basically it's a poor rip-off of Sex and the City and Northern Exposure.
Gorgeous scenery but you can find that on nat'l geographic!
Which, BTW, is on PBS right now with a show about protecting the Great Bear Forest in Canada!!!

I can't even read your posts, because the replay isn't on yet and a friend called me from her vacation in Seattle and left a message that I HAD to watch it tonight. I will get back to you on my opinion ;)

Helen,

I don't think I gave anything away! :D

Elaine,

I don't think I'm going to be a fan of it, either!

I never watched Sex and the City, but it does seem like Northern Exposure re-made with new cast members!

Both episodes I've seen had a few good moments, but as a whole, neither show made the grade for me!

(Not a fan of Anne Heche, either!)

Do a search on PBS.org for your zip code. Show is called "Last Stand of the Great Bears" in Canada

Denny, I've only watched about 20 minutes of it so far but have it on Tivo. I was hoping for some eagle sightings. I too like the bartender and looking forward to more of the raccoon's antics. Other than that, Anne Heche is a creep and a lousy actor.

I "dvr/tivo" show - haven't watched yet - too busy catching up on all the Rescue Me shows I missed while on vacation back in early Aug - maybe tomorrow. And the 2nd show has already been played - oh no - hope I got it!

Well, not to worry - I've read all of your posts and am totally lost. I put it on tape, because as usually happens someone dropped by and just now left. Since I haven't seen this first one, I'll just go ahead and tape the one following and catch up on both this weekend. Never watched Northern Exposure, but kind of wish I had. To be honest with all of you, the only major network show I was watching was Medium and I'm really upset that it wasn't on the fall lineup. :angry: <_<

Harpo, what do you mean by "Rescue Me"shows. Am I derelict in my duties as usual? My Tivo remote is always on duty.

And PS I still love you and your avatar. Waving

Rescue Me is about a firehouse in NY City - it runs in the summer (so the season just finished) Everyone where I work watches it and I got sucked in last summer. It's on Fox - it's pretty raw but it's sure representative of new yorkers! I was about 6 episodes behind so the last couple days I finally sat down and watched!

http://www.fxnetworks.com/shows/originals/rescueme/

It's the show with Dennis Leary - he was nominated for emmy this year.

Now I'm trying to get caught up with all the new shows coming on for the fall - my poor little fingers trying to set my little machine! And I'm a big fan of Amazing Race (I'd love to do that show) and Survivor (wouldn't ever do that stuff).

Now I have to check out Men in Trees ---- I got show #1, if there was #2 I missed it - duh - I only set it for 1 episode - shoot myself in the foot!! :rolleyes:

Okay - here is Helen's review of Men In Trees" (anxious to see what everyone else's opinion is).

Had I watched the first episode when originally aired, I probably would have changed channels after the first half hour. But, fortunately, I watched the back to back shows with my morning coffee and I'm TOTALLY HOOKED!!! Have to say, though, that my emmy nomination would be her furry little stalker. :lol:
