It's been a while since I've written about TV. Couple of random thoughts:
-- in my humble opinion, DirtySexyMoney is the runaway winner of this new season. I am *really* glad I stuck with this one; I'm in hook, line and sinker. It's got a great premise and a very strong cast and I think it hasn't quite yet reached its potential. If you haven't watched, I would give you a window of two or thee weeks before the plot layers become to complex.
-- Thursday night lineup is still the strongest, simply based on the strenth of the Office and 30 Rock. That said, it definitely needs a strong drama in the 10-11 pm slot (9-10 for my central standard friends) ala what ER was back in the day. I'd love to see DirtySexyMoney moved into this slot.
-- Tuesday night's are very much on the heels of Thursday, though, and will probably surpass it once American Idol kicks off. House and Boston legal are a terrific combination and I still stand by my statement that pound-for-pound, Boston Legal is still the best show on TV.
-- Friday nights are pretty solid too with Friday Night Lights (haven't watched yet Finkel, but I promise I will get to it) and Vegas.
-- And for the record, I gave up on Dancing with Stars (sort of) and don't get Gossip Girl, which is The Wife's favorite show of all-time, short of Laguna Beach and The Hills (I think my wife aspires to be a 19 year old SoCal girl).
Any important shows I am missing?
-- For all you 24 fans out there, I strongly urge you to rent or download season one and two of Showtime's Sleeper Cell. It is totally and completely off the hook.

yeah. the 6:00 pm news.gs
still not watching Dexter? It's awesome. 1st season was better then the 2nd, so far.
You forgot the best part about Thursday nights: It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia.
Along with 30 and Office, hands down the funniest 1.5 hours on TV.
i am digging on Dirty Sexy Money.
and was into Dancing with the stars. and i personally love Private practice and Grey's anatomy. i don't get tons of TV time this season though, wasting time blogging or reading but TiVo is helping me keep up with these shows. and i barely make it to watch those. i did catch Samantha who? and thought it was semi funny too with potential. girl shows? perhaps. i haven't seen gossip girl. like i said wasting time in other pursuits.
I got hooked on FNL DVDs this summer - one of THE best dramas in way too long....
Are you not watching Heroes?? Get the DVDs!-MBL
