How I Met Your Mother
Reunion (HORRIBLE show)
I haven't seen Invasion or Threshold yet, those might get dumped.
I like the two eps I've seen of Bones.

There's a few that I've sampled and decided were crap... but the only ones I would consider "dropped" are Bones and Reunion. I'm also leaning towards losing Prison Break.
And one that I had no plans to "pick up", but I'm still watching... is Supernatural. Still not a great show, but it's keeping my interest so far.

Only Ghost Whisperer and Killer Instincts, but in reality I sampled those knowing I probably wasn't going to be into them.
One the cusp for me are:
Reunion - Sort of entertaining in a dumb way, but if I end up enjoying Night Stalker there may be too much conflict in that time period to bother with it
Invasion - I just don't see there being enough to fill out a whole series here, at least enough to sustain interest and not keep repeating itself. The same could possibly be said about Threshold, but at least I like the characters in that one. I'll give it a few more weeks, or until I get bored.
Bones - Was iffy on this, but the second episode improved on all the things I disliked about the pilot. If it keeps improving I'll stick around, otherwise I doubt it.
The War at Home - I pretty much only watch this because it's lodged between two shows I'm already watching. I don't hate it like most do, but I wouldn't bother with it if it moved to another time slot.
Threshold - Great pilot IMO, but disappointing second episode. I like the characters, but if it keeps the downward spiral that may not be enough. It has the benefit of being the only thing I enjoy on Friday, though.

This season so far has been a major disappointment. Wow. And it showed so much more promise. Just gives me more reason to continue looking forward to January's '24' Season Premiere!
Shows I watched and didn't care for:
Prison Break
Invasion
Surface (I reallllllllly thought this had potential but the creative team behind it simply can't meet Abrams or Whedon genius. Too bad. It'll be cancelled.)

It certainly couldn't hurt the second one.

I could have also said Just Cases or Head Legal, too.
(I stil need to watch Killer Instinct but I am creeped out about the spider thing I read about.)

and I'm stunned that people are talking about ditching how I met your mother, supernatural and most shocking Prison Break. All of these shows are pretty decent, especially PB, best new show!

War at Home. I have the first episode of E-Ring on tivo, haven't watched it yet, and am unlikely to start since there's already a 2 show conflict there for me.

Way to compare apples with oranges.
