In conjuncture with our movie and book thread here is one for our opiate of the masses. The television. TeeVee. Boob tube and so on and so forth. Of course we also have like 5 other threads for individual shows but that is neither here nor somewhere not here.
I know that most of our shows have been stricken down in their prime(time) hour due to the writers strike, but that doesn't stop us from talking about the shows. Additionally some shows are still airing, like reality TV, shows written before the strike, and shows whose writers aren't in the WGA, which I think is like Stargate or something. For example the best show that you probably aren't watching, Psyche, is coming back on Friday and you should watch it. Plus we can always talk about TV shows on DVD.
Well I guess now I post links and trailers now.

Even though Season 3 isn't as good as the first two, I'm still enjoying it.
But Rank, Dr. House
Bonus for those with onDemand, they play episodes a week before they air.
How did they make that into a series that lasts more than one season? I would assume that the first season they would break out and then it ends.
I'm currently watching Farscape DVDs and it is the coolest fucking show. Ben Browder is such a man hunk.
I love you, lost, but the wire looks so fucking boring. They kill Rome but give the wire five seasons. Something's rotten in Denmark.
it doesn't make any sense
Wow.
I want the stupid writer's strike to be over so I can have more Pushing Daisies
I love Rome, but the last half of seaosn 2 was so bad compared to what came before. I mean, it was alright, but such a huge let down.
Also, yeah, The Wire has a lotta talky-talk and slow moments, but it just makes the exciting moments so much better. Also, its called character building, so the audience can get to know the players better. Its a show you need to persevere through to get to the goodness.
Once Omar is introduced, it gets much better. I mean, dude is a stick up thief with principles that everyone is scared of, and oh yeah, he's gay. It sounds ridiculous, but man, every scene he is in is gold.
1st season: Breaking out
2nd season: On the run
3rd season: 1st season with different characters.
I mean the first season was okay but man
Second season they were on the run.
Third season:
Nah, i know what you mean. It took me a while to get into, I just wanted to watch because it seems like every critic was sucking its dick, and the last show they treated like that was Arrested Development, so hey, why not check it out.
So uhh, yeah, new episode of 30 Rock this thursday. Awesome.
Then I'm disappointed.
OHHHHH Geek, in case you haven't read up on the last 1/2 of the season, oh there are so many good things coming our way, including:
McKay, Carter, and Keller stuck in a hole together.
Let's not forget Scrubs coming back starting (probably) on the 24th.
"The last thing a guy wants to see when he's in a splash pool is his best friend's junk headed towards him at forty miles per hour. Felt like I got pistol-whipped."
30 Rock is the best half hour on television right now.
This man knows what is the what
That show has got to be expensive as fuck though. It's fucking loaded with cameos and big names.
Also Will Arnet was on the show a little while ago and it was pretty awesome. I miss GOB
I guess I should check this out.
Will Arnett has been in two episodes so far and it was glorious
"Oh, God! Just like the ancient Greeks!"
This is one of the few shows I wish had gone on a little longer. Just a season or two longer, so they could have finished it in a way they wanted, though I do admit TPKW was pretty fucking amazingly done.
He goes from sorta everyman character in the first season to unbelievable badass in the second. That outfit he was wearing in Vitas Mortis was the most awesome fucking thing in the universe.
Yeah, his Pseudo-peacekeeper ensemble was always awesome. Black and red definitely work for Ben.
that and dexter are the best shows
well, and lost but it hasn't started its season yet
HUMANS ARE SUPERIOR
And I still mourn the loss of Veronica Mars.
