Yesterday was Sci Fi Friday and now BBC America wants you to tune in to Supernatural Satruday with tonight’s only premiere, Hex. I have never watched the show, but it looks like a tweaked version of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Have you seen any episodes of Hex? Is it worth watching? Is attempting to catch up with today’s TV marathon of Hex episodes that lead up to the premiere worth checking out? Let me know in the comments. In other happenings today, if you missed the premiere of The Starter Wife on USA, you have five chances today to see it, as it will be playing all day on USA. Did you catch The Starter Wife? What did you think of it? For more summer TV show premiere info, check out the Guide to Summer TV Shows – 2007.
