So which shows return are you anticipating most?

[sandgk]

anyone have a favorite new show for this season?


Mine is definitely Pushing Daisies. It was awesome.

Pushig Daisies was the best pilot - I agree.

Question is, will it have the legs to last beyond the novelty value?

 

[BuckeyeTillIDie]

I sure hope so, it seems to have a lot of potential.

I really like the cinematography in this show, it is really cool.

Most importantly, the plot seems to have good structure, and it is well-written.

I hope the second episode doesn't disappoint.

I really enjoyed it. It's nice to see an artistic presentation of a show every now and again. It was very Amelie-esque in its styling, which certainly isn't a bad thing. Quirky, cute, and very entertaining.

There is another show that I really like that started this year:

Chuck, on NBC.

It has had great character development, overall writing, good comedy/action mixture, and Yvonne Strahovski (Sarah Walker on the show) is HOT.

Also, for those who have Showtime, the series "Californication" was VERY good.

BSG. I'm not a much of a sci-fi guy, but that is one of the most intelligent, well written shows on television.

As to shows returning after the writer's strike, Big Bang Theory. Frickin' hilarious.

Never got into 24. Too simplistic, one-dimensional, macho-fanstasy. Did Clancy write it?

Loved that show - I'm also waiting for Big Love on HBO, and (don't laugh) the Tudors on Showtime...

One show that just came back is Everest on the Discovery channel - its sort of reality TV but only the show follows groups of people trying to summit Everest. Pretty friggin sweet.

The Wire
The Shield
Big Love
Flight of the Conchords

Certainly the best new show of the season. Other than The Office, there is not a show on television that makes me laugh as much as Big Bang. The writers have captured the "nerd" culture perfectly.

The Wire

BSG Razor got me back into the BSG mode. Now I have to watch all of the first three seasons between now and March, when the fourth and final season begins.

 

[LoKyBuckeye]

I need to get back into the wire... I have season 3 downloaded but haven't watched it....

right now I'm hooked on Dexter, Weeds (seasons over) and Californacation (seasons over).... and I don't even have Showtime

Season 3 is amazing, easily the greatest of all time television show

I was really surprised at that one too. The promo commercials looked awful (and the pilot wasn't great), but after giving it a shot, we kept watching.

That must be why everyone seems to like the show. I gave up on it after the pilot.

Sheldon is my new hero.

I wish they would write Leonard out of the show. Johnny Galecki is probably the most recognizable of the cast, but his acting is atrocious. The only one on the show that isn't even remotely believable.
