Thank god Arrested Developement is comming back it is one of the best shows on TV and should never have been ended so abruptly to begin with.

 

One show that I love is Scrubs. I've been watching it since the first episode and can't get enough of it. However I don't know how next season is going to work out with Elliot moving to a new Hospital. (Scrubs Season 1 comes out on DVD tomorrow f***ing awesome).

 

I'm also glad to see that Fox is bringing back House, I think it's a great show and I was worried it would be cancelled, because it's Fox and they like cancelling the shows I love.

Amen on House and Fox does like to cancel the shows I like. House is probably my favorite new show of the season. To go along with my other favorites like 24, the Shield and of course Family Guy, King of the Hill, Simpsons, ER, Law and ORder and CSI. The last group I don't follow near as much although I finally started dvr'ing ER again (after not watching it in a year or two).

On network tv I follow Family Guy (and American Dad until it goes over to Adult Swim). On cable I follow: Good Eats, Deadliest Catch, Myth Busters, Iron Chef, Cold Case Files and American Justice. I am sure there are a couple others, but that is what comes to mind.

I watch all those same shows except the Simpsons and King of the Hill.

 

The Simpsons just suck right now, it's not funny to me.

 

House is in my top three with Arrested Developement and 24. The guy who plays House is awesome, I love his sarcastic humor. The cases on House are far more interesting than any other hospital drama IMO.

Scrubs will be on Sunday nights at 12:47 ET. Book it. They love throwing Scrubs into time slots where they'll get no ratings, I don't know why. They should just leave it at Tuesday's at 8:30 back to back with The Office which is the s***.

We also asked why he thinks NBC tends not to promote "Scrubs" very heavily, even to the point that it no longer gets the scenes-from-next-week treatment at the close of an episode. Rather than a rant, though, the question produces a thoughtful answer from Lawrence, a sitcom veteran ("Friends, "Spin City"), about the nature of the TV business.

 

"The bad part about the way TV works is, our show is on NBC, but it's 100 percent owned by Disney ['Scrubs' is produced by Disney's Touchstone TV]," he says. "I don't blame the network executives, but it's a s***ty situation. Our show did just -- it wasn't a giant hit out of the gate, but it did just well enough that it's going to stay on forever. But since they [NBC] don't stand to make any money on it in the end, they use it as a Band-aid. They move it from timeslot to timeslot ... always knowing that the core audience will follow along.

I'm still waiting for the summer to come to watch more of Nip/Tuck on FX. It was a really good cliff-hanger so i've been waiting for it to come back. Also, after missing most of last season, i am finally caught up with The Shield too. I love that show though my 10 year old still gets mad i kick her to her room when that show comes on.

Cali...are you going to make it out to the dreaded OC at all next week?

 

Might be for at least one of the 4 games. But, making a weekend of it for the San Diego series however.

That nip/tuck finale was one of the best hours on TV that I have ever seen, and the cliffhanger HOLY s***! "All I Know" playing in the background at the end just makes the ending so much creepier and better.

 

But you'll have to wait until the fall before it comes back on. Ryan Murphy is working on a movie and that pushed back the show until a fall premiere. That's sucks, but one good thing is that the move caused the second season of Rescue Me to be pushed up to June 21st. It's the whole close the door open the window thing....

I don't actually have a tv....

 

But I usually go to someone's house to watch (either live or Tivo'ed) Arrested Development & CSI: Las Vegas and old episodes of this cartoon called Invader Zim. I've also seen The Office a few times and it was pretty funny.

The American or English Office? The English one is funnier...my ex-girlfriend has that and Coupling on DVD, it is funny as hell.
