My goodness, girl. TV should be your middle name. Great summary though. You’ve definitely delivered. I recognized all of the shows, but am only familiar with maybe two of ‘em.

Uh huh. What about the rest of you? Is it because of ‘selfishness’?

No, I’m single because I’m selfish.

Sweet Be-jebus, get a life. Is watching tv all liberals do? No wonder you’re all single.

Growing as a human being is not funny.

Aw, I liked Michael this week. That wasn’t pathetic, it was nice. He’s growing as a human being.

As a responsible parent, I cannot allow your namesake to watch Supernatural until age…I don’t, four?

Blair, stay away from Chuck! Oh no I understand you canâ€™t, his golf pants are so tight! p.s. guy from Prison Break will always be hot, he has got a wee bit flabby though now that he doesnâ€™t have to flash the tattoos though.

Viva Chuck and Blair!! Yeah, Wentworth has let himself go AND he’s phoning in his performance…even his furtive glances are lazy! Even fisch agrees 100% that the Wentworth’s just not that hot anymore.

We don’t let your namesake watch television.

Nooo, Gib! Don’t do it!! I’m only in the middle of Supernatural’s first season right now…once I catch up, I’m sure I’ll have something to say about season four and will happily discuss it with you and my new namesake.

Chuck and Blair–the only redeeming couple on tv. and, House and Wilson are ok too. Everything else sucks.

I agree with you 100% on Fringe, TruBlood and Prison Break. And I also agree heroes writers have no direction.

But I don’t think the Office is so bad this season. I kind of like it.

Most looked forward to shows: Entourage and Heroes. But both seem to be well past their primes.

Definitely check out the original Kath and Kim. Life on Mars (it wasn’t a sitcom) and Eleventh Hour (originally starring Patrick Stewart and Ashley Jensen) are both British remakes – which I enjoyed more than their new American counterparts. The new star of Eleventh Hour is Rufus Sewell – my fav movie of his is Cold Comfort Farm (such a great cast!)

And the new Christian Slater reminds me of the British series “Jekyll” starring James Nesbitt. “My Own Worst Enemy” definitely has stolen from “Jekyll.”

Comments on just about every show on TV, but nothing for Supernatural?

That’s it. I’m voting for McCain.

Entourage: I cough cough sputter agree with Karol on this one. Blah. At least itâ€™s only 30 minutes.

Where’s my link?

Very enjoyable summarizing! The original versions of Kath &Kim, Life on Mars and Worst Week were all excellent so not sure what they’ve done to them (although from the looks of Kath &Kim they’ve cast a skinny, attractive actress in a part meant to be played by a very unattractive Sheila who thinks she’s hot in her hot pants. Joke immediately ruined.) The original Kath and Kim makes me pee myself laughing, the Australian-ness of it is like 80% of the joke, much like FOTC. Um with the New Zealand-ness. I live on an island in the middle of nowhere so am only now learning to love Gilmore Girls, I still don’t know if she will get together with Logan or if Peter Petrelli from Heroes will return (something tells me that ship has sailed! But how great/un-annoying was he in GG? What happened/why is he so annoying in Heroes?) Worst Week of my Life was like a typical British farce type thing, again stupid humour done only in a way that Brits seem to pull off. Seriously funny though. Life on Mars was more of a guy’s show to me, plus half of it was like 1970′s references which was waaay before my time. The second series moved to the 80′s and starred a girl though which annoyed every man in the country but I preferred it, the perms and day glo were awesome! So maybe that will happen there too. Doubtful though as it will probably run for like ten years. Oh and I sooo cannot wait for Gossip Girl. The first time I watched it I thought it was so dumb, then I realised the error of my ways! Serena, thank God Dan dumped you! Blair, stay away from Chuck! Oh no I understand you can’t, his golf pants are so tight! p.s. guy from Prison Break will always be hot, he has got a wee bit flabby though now that he doesn’t have to flash the tattoos though.
