- Must See HDTV (September 10th – 16th)
With football and new TV series premieres, we’re ready to call it officially fall. Keep an eye out for brand news shows like NBC’s Go On and The New Normal, as well as returning favorites like Glee on Fox and the various talent show competitions. Look below for the highlights this week, followed after the break by our weekly listing of what to look out for in TV, Blu-ray and videogames.
Monday Night Football
Football is back, and it’s Monday night, so you know what that means. Hank Williams Jr. is no longer a part of the festivities but the action hasn’t changes. We’ve got a doubleheader lined up with Bengals/Ravens followed by Raiders/Chargers, so wrap up those bedtime stories and get in front of the TV.Sons of Anarchy
It may not rise to the level of Breaking Bad or Justified but Sons of Anarchy is one of our other favorite cable TV series, and its new season gets started this week. SAMCRO is dealing with conflict from within and, judging from the previews, out side the club as well. We’ll see how the addition of Jimmy Smits to the cast affects this show.
(September 11th, FX, 10PM)Weeds
At long last, the Showtime series comes to an end this weekend. Some might say it should’ve wrapped up a couple of seasons ago, but if you’re still following the Botwin clan and their assortment of friends, enemies and drug-dealing associates it’s time to say goodbye.

- Intuition by LG hands-on: a pen-enabled competitor to the Galaxy Note for Verizon
It’s a silly name as smartphones go (and one that conjures images of lady-focused razors), but regardless, LG’s Intuition is now officially a member of Verizon’s lineup. The 4G LTE device, shown off today at the manufacturer’s launch event, is nigh unchanged from the South Korean model we reviewed this past July (known as the Optimus Vu). With a 5-inch 1,024 x 768 True-XGA IPS capacitive display, dual-core S3 CPU clocked at 1.5GHz, 8-megapixel rear camera, NFC, 2080mAh battery and that Rubberdium pen, the only thing separating this stateside iteration from its SK Telecom cousin is the skinned Android Ice Cream Sandwich OS onboard and $199 on contract price. So how does it fare in this Big Red debut? Follow along as we attempt to find what’s been lost, if anything, in translation.

LG showed off the latest version of its TV operating system, webOS 6.0, at CES in early January.

They use cogs that mesh into the so-called Warp Track laminate, which is similar to timing belt. The laminate is made of high-strength steel for allowing it to be both tough and thin – at its thinnest it measures only 0.1 mm, but is still strong enough to support the display. Whether retracted or...
