I love TV.
I don't know if it's because I was television-deprived growing up, but I find TV more exciting than the average bear.
So, what's on that's any good these days? Well, lots!
First of all, if you didn't catch Mad Men in its original airing, I order you to check it out. It has all the great writing of The Sopranos, and all the sexiness. Sure, people don't get the shit beat out of them as much, but it's still pretty awesome.
The new Terminator show on Fox is actually good. Summer Glau makes one sexy robot.
Breaking Bad, also on AMC, definitely has potential. It's the only show about Crystal Meth you could ever maybe possibly love.
In Treatment on HBO. Definitely not for everyone, but Gabriel Byrne is fantastic in this show. I think the first week may have seemed a little fakey, but I think it will get better over time as the actors relax into their characters.
30 Rock. If you aren't watching 30 Rock, I can't even look you in the eye...I mean...via blog...you know...with my blog eyes.
Battlestar Galactica. Netflix the miniseries from Sci-fi, then all of the first three seasons. Even if you don't like Science Fiction, I promise you'll like this.
Damages. Creepy. Excellent.
You'll notice that there's only one real comedy on this list, and I think it's because 30 Rock is so far outstripping the competition that mentioning any other comedy alongside it just doesn't seem right. Goes to show that comedy is actually a lot harder to pull of than drama...if only Oscar voters realized that.
