What I'm watching

Here is what I am currently watching on network television.
Yellow-I highly suggest, White-Check it out if you have time, Blue-I don't even know why I watch it

Sunday-
Simpsons - Classic show, you almost have to watch it. returns Nov 5th.
Desperate Housewives - Last season was bad, this season is making me realize that I hate soaps and a couple of my shows are getting awfully soapy.
Runaway - Donny Wahlberg isn't really good and the show is not very believable.
Brothers & Sisters - I really only watch it because it is in fact a TV show, but its growing on me(this is how I get in trouble and watch too much TV)

Monday-
Prison Break-This show could fall off fast. returns Oct 23rd.
How I Met Your Mother - really is a well done comedy and NPH is hilarious.
The Class - It is getting better and Jason Ritter is someone I really hope does well.
Two and A Half Men - Charlie Sheen may be the highest paid comedic actor on tv, but its a devalued market(not even close to Friends or Raymond money) and he is funny
Heroes - I really like it(as I've said before) and I'm excited to see where it goes.
Studio 60 On The Sunset Strip - Not enough people are watching this show and it would be an "Arrested Development"-sized disappointment if it gets canceled.

Tuesday-
Gilmore Girls - This show now bums me out, and it used to be so enjoyable.
Friday Night Lights - So far this show has been able to get me excited about High School Football.
The Unit - David Mamet and is the creator/executive producer/writer of this great Special Ops military drama
Veronica Mars - The next "Buffy"? Not quite, but it comes close. I missed the first season but got caught up very quickly due to DVD technology.
Smith - Pulled off the schedule, but not officially cancelled - The first episode was near perfect, the second silly and irrelevant, the third average, and now Ray Liotta will probably go back to doing movies.

Wednesday-
Jericho - Handling an atomic explosion is like the ultimate IPDE application, we must watch so we can learn, we must watch so we can prepare. Or you admit that its just a Sci-Fi show and you sit back and enjoy it, as we all do with our disaster movies.
Bones - Anyone from "Buffy" automatically gets a more dedicated viewing, this show comes in just below a must watch but is a great "CSI"-alternative that is actually good at balancing the crime and the characters personal lives. returns Nov 1st.
30 Rock - Not much to say about the first episode, but I haven't been able to make it all the way though yet, so there may still be hope.
Lost - Seriously, just watch it. It is a very easy show to watch on DVD and its not as frustrating when you don't have to wait a whole week for the next episode. There will be 7 consecutive episodes this fall and then 15 consecutive in the spring.
One Tree Hill - It has happened twice so far this season that during the same episode I have had moments that remind me of why I really like this show and moments that are so cheesy and soapy that I can't stand it.
The Nine - So far I really like it, and there is so much they can do with the unknown events from the 52 hour hostage situation.

Thursday-
Smallville - I can't wait for the Smallville/Heroes crossover.
My Name Is Earl - Great show, When Joy is drunk she may be my favorite character on TV
The Office - By far the best comedy on TV. How in the hell are more people watching "Ugly Betty" than this show.
Supernatural - Weekly Ghost/monster/demon stories that are usually pretty good.
The O.C. - It used to be so good. Why do I still watch High School Dramas? No really, will somebody tell me. Even if I do find the the "Dawson's Creek", I'll still feel a little dirty watching it. returns Nov. 2nd.
ER - The past 2 seasons have been excellent. Pratt and Kovac make a pretty bad ass duo of doctors, and I think it's my favorite cast since about 2000. Right now Ray, Neela and Morris are some of the funniest and most interesting secondary characters the show has had in awhile. I have had a mild obsession with Abby (Maura Tierney has been one of my favorites since her "Newsradio" days) and Sam(I think I've been in love with Linda Cardellini since "Freaks & Geeks"(I have to double parenthesize to make a point about what a great show that was))for quite awhile. And then you add Busy Philipps(she is overacting and annoying, but I still have hope that she can turn it around) and John Stamos(Uncle Jesse) as well as the fact that the show isn't just recycling all the story lines and you can see that this show may actually hitting a peak in its 13th season.

Friday-
Thank God I don't have anything on Fridays to distract me from "Battlestar Galactica", but I may give "Las Vegas" a try again.

Saturday-
The networks don't even try anymore

Okay so I am (admitting to) watching about 22 Hours of TV, and I'm only "highly suggesting" 6 hours. Record some shows and give them a chance when you have some free time.
