Old and New Shows, Updated

It's been a few weeks, and my list of shows to watch has modified a bit, to wit:
Six Degrees -- A bit soap opera-esque, and at the end of the day, who cares? Pass.
The Nine -- see above. How long are they going to drag out the 52 hours of their kidnapping?
Jericho -- Pass. Too dark.
Desperate Housewives -- Used to be one of my must-sees, but at the end of the day, too much sex-based comedy. Pass.
Without A Trace -- ALL of the regular characters are unhappy. Jack is divorced, Martin is addicted, Danny has a brother who was in jail, Marianne's character had heart surgery and doesn't get along with her son, Poppy's character can't decide who she wants to be with, the divorcee riddled with guilt, or the drug addict. Well written, but too dark for me. Pass.
So, here is the list of Terri-approved shows for the fall:
Sunday: Amazing Race -- the BEST reality show out there. You cannot predict what will happen. Will someone have the taxi driver who gets lost? Or put diesel in the gas tank?
Monday:Heroes and Friday Night Lights. See earlier post. I don't think FNL is going to make it. Its ratings have been tanking. Too bad. Kyle Chandler is yummy.
Tuesday: House -- Hugh Laurie makes that show. When did he turn sexy? Dancing With the Stars.
Wednesday -- Dancing's Results Show, which I fast forward thru, and watch in about 20 minutes. The rest is patter and filler.
Thursday -- Survivor. Yes, it has jumped the shark. I still watch it. I fast forward thru it, but I still watch. Grey's Anatomy - LOVVVVVE that show.
Friday -- Numb3rs and Battlestar Galatica. Numb3rs is a cute little show. Filler TV, really, but still enjoyable. A step above Monk. BG is one of the best dramas on TV. Won a Peabody, for heaven's sake.



In care you're curious, DH's list of must see TV: Dr. Who, Battlestar Galatica and The Unit. It did include Blade, but Blade got canned. DH also likes the Stargate series. Notice a trend?
