My TV Life

If I were a stronger person, I’d follow Ned’s advice to Kill Your Television. But alas, my willpower can’t stand up against the following lineup.

Sundays

Extreme Makeovers: Home Edition: Sundays @ 8:00, ABC
Feel good TV. More please!

Mondays

King of Queens: 8:00, CBS
Consistently great stuff from Kevin James.
Miracle Workers: 10:00, ABC
One of the few, “good for you” shows on the air.

Tuesdays

Scrubs: 9:00, NBC
Funniest show on TV! Bonus episode at 8:30 tonight.

Wednesdays

Unanimous: 9:30, FOX
Love the concept. We’ll see if it holds interest throughout.

Thursdays

Survivor: Panama: 8:00, CBS
Still love the show. Unscripted keeps it fresh.

On Deck

The following dramas are better seens as a giant, non-stop movies. So, we wait while avoiding promos until the DVDs are released. Then watch them concurrently in a massive TV binge, of sorts.

24: Mondays @ 9:00, FOX
Season 4, in my opinion was just as strong as its predecesors. No date for Season 5 DVDs.
Lost: Wednesdays @ 9:00, ABC
Season 1 was awesome. You never know what might happen next. No date for Season 2 DVDs.

Contemplating

As if I don’t already watch enough TV, these shows are also intriguing.

The Unit: Mondays @ 9:00, CBS
I’ve heard good things, but it’s up against Miracle Workers. TiVo is becoming more and more necessary.
Heist: Wednesdays @ 10:00, NBC
Interesting show, at least the premiere was. Quite clever.

If the Mood Hits

The Apprentice: Mondays @ 9:00, NBC
Sometimes it’s just fun to watch them squirm in the boardroom.
House : Tuesdays @ 9:00, FOX
His quirky, anything-goes attitude is a refreshing change of pace from the cookie cutter CSIs and their clones.
Seinfeld: Weekdays @ 11:00, Local
Can’t go wrong with the Sein!
America’s Funniest Home Videos: various time slots, ABC
It’s for the kids. No, really.
