"Sherlock" (2010) No not the Downey Jr one. A modern 3 x 1.5 hour episode 'series' on BBC that was broadcast recently and will released on Bluray/DVD on the 30th August Quite recommended if you are able to obtain it. I didn't think I'd enjoy it but decided to give it a try due to positive comments by some friends. I ended up liking it and even laughed a few times (I hardly ever laugh at TV) and found it quite entertaining, if not quite as polished as big budget productions tend to be. I felt this lent the programme a bit of charm and let the focus on title character really shine through, which is good because he's brilliant.

Bradley Whitford & Colin Hanks play unlikely detectives for the Dallas PD: FOX Broadcasting Company - The Good Guys This could have been annoying, but somehow is played by both main characters in such a way that it is nothing but totally entertaining. It's definitely lite fare, but not insulting one's intelligence, and good pacing. My surprise favorite summer show (I almost grew a mustache!). My wife & I both laugh throughout. The summer finale aired on Monday, and will pick up on Fridays this fall. I think you can watch full eps online @FOX.

Has anyone been watching this new series? They are flashing Grado cans all over the place, even calling them by name and giving them as gifts. RS2 specifically I believe. Check it out... not the best show on earth, but interesting non the less. Covert Affairs - Full Episodes and Clips streaming online for free - Hulu The end of Ep2 has one of the main characters giving the RS2's in a wooden box as a gift, and middle'ish of Ep1 has that same (blind) character commenting on their greatness.

TBS - Neighbors From Hell

This and Criminal Minds have pretty much been the only 2 shows i have followed every week over the last few years. Hate to see it go. Looks like Jack will bite the bullet at the end, meaning no comebacks.

So how was The Unit? David Mamet's Master Class Memo to the Writers of The Unit | Movieline

Can't wait to see how the pilot will be. Also Grace Park from the BSG series is going to be on it too Here is the article: Hawaii Five-O then and now As filming starts, commentators envision show in 21st century By Mike Gordon Advertiser Staff Writer It was stiff, serious and anything but real, yet somehow, "Hawaii Five-0" became an indelible part of its tropical setting. From 1968 to 1980, it ruled the genre of TV police dramas even as it created a vision of the Islands that was never close to the truth but…

How many are watching this saga? I think there are some excellent casting choices, great acting, great screenplay and fantastic sets. I love that they chose to go easy on the makeup, and let people sweat as well, it certainly adds to the realism. Any comments?

I'm surprised that there's not a post on this already but how are you guys liking the new season of Scrubs? I think people who started from the beginning will agree that it's returned to its former glory (S6-7 were crap). Even with the budget cutbacks (notice that there's no sets outside the hospital and JD's apartment), I do thoroughly appreciate the story and humor once again. Do you like Elliot and JD getting back together again? Or do you agree with Bill Lawrence(keeping them apart)?

I watched the first episode, and I think this one may turn out to be pretty good.

Yay or nay? David Duchovny's show on Showtime (12 eps 1 season completed). This is probably my favorite show in awhile. I think the three cable shows that really stick in my mind as consistently likable for me are Oz (Buttsex), Entourage and this and partially Flight of the Conchords. Weeds is somewhat a guilty pleasure but I think its a little too inconsistent in awesomeness to really love and Curb your Enthusiasm... gets old sometimes. Even though David's character is more than a little bit whiny, god knows I can careless about the dude's family situation and the naked hotties are almost (Not quite there though) too gratuitous, but there's a lot to like in the show i…

Was wondering if any of you guys watch this show. I think it's hilarious.

Anyone else like this show? I thought the 1st season was pretty fun, and Tricia Helfer is apparently in a few episodes this season.

Anyone else watching PBS/Ken Burn's National Parks? Click for larger version.

I may well be alone here, but I'm anxiously awaiting the season premiere tonight. I've watched the show from the beginning, and have grown to love the characters and story lines.

Anybody else watch this. First couple of episodes have been intriguing, with a rather unique premise it's shaping up to be the few new shows worth watching.

Considering the US Season 3 premier is 5 minutes away, I figured it was time to start this thread. I adore the UK version. I adore the US version. "Toby is in HR, which technically means he works for corporate, so he's really not a part of our family. Also, he's divorced, so he's really not a part of his family."

Anyone else a fan of this show? I missed it the first time around since I don't watch TV but I'm catching up now. Les Stroud is truly amazing, musician, survival expert, writer, filmmaker, and a remarkable TV personality to boot with endless charisma. He films everything himself, no camera crew, nothing is faked like Man vs. Wild, just genuine survival techniques with a bit of humor thrown in. Les doesn't do anything excessive, and his escapades don't always work and sometimes he has to bail and call in help. Still, I've learned a few nice tricks, and the show is massively entertaining.

Did anyone catch the premiere last week? I didn't realize the seasons were so close together. For those that missed it: Hulu - Hell's Kitchen: 16 Chefs Compete - Watch the full episode now.@@AMEPARAM@@http://www.hulu.com/embed/YptSVm-f7twOc826UbpNiQ@@AMEPARAM@@YptSVm-f7twOc826UbpNiQ These chefs are the most incompetent ever.

I've been watching this on HD, and it's really good so far. This kind of programming really makes a 50" plasma worthwhile!

Anyone excited about this? I'm a bit apprehensive, personally. Firstly, because it's a re-telling of the (biblical) King David. Secondly, it looks like Ian McShane is playing Swearengen sans guttermouth. BUT... as a period piece/alternate reality I have to say, if they can pull it off, it might be bloody great. Is anyone else looking forward to this one?

Has anyone watched the new show Chuck? I watched last nights episode and thought it was kinda funny in a campy/cheery sort of way. Not a bad show but certainly not something I'd really care much about if I missed it.

Less than a week away for Season five of The Office Here is a preview description of the first episode from TV.com My opinion based on that spoiler and Toby's replacement doesn't seem that interesting to me.

I've been fairly impressed with this season's offerings thus far. Especially with the huge improvement in writing quality and originality this season. I guess the writers strike was good for letting some ideas flow and simmer. Here are the shows I currently follow, in order of preference. Battlestar Galactica Bones House BBC's Top Gear (hiatus) 30 Rock Californication (hiatus) Eureka (hiatus) No Reservations Scrubs (hiatus) Leverage (hiatus) Chuck Life Top Chef (hiatus) The Big Bang Theory Pushing Daisies (canceled) Weeds (hiatus) Lie to Me The Simpsons Burn Notice Heroes (now that Bryan Fuller is back.
