Leverage and Psych have had their season finales and the TV addict in me is very sad to have to wait until summer for these shows to return. Given that, I thought it might be time to do one of my summaries about the shows I’m watching and hear what y’all have to say about TV in general.

I will emphasize that if you aren’t watching Leverage you are missing one of the best shows on TV!

Opinions are under the cut in case anything constitutes Spoilers

( Leverage )

( Psych )

( NCIS )

( Chuck )

( Dollhouse )

( Supernatural )

( Smallville, Heroes and Other random thoughts about TV )

I thought it was time to weigh in on the new television season now that most of the shows have returned. I am a TV addict and proud of it but have yet to find anything in the new season worth adding to my list! What new shows have grabbed your interest?

So let’s get started: Each Show has it's own cut in case of Spoilers.
( Chuck )

( Heroes )


( NCIS )

( House )


( Bones )

( Supernatural: Happy Supernatural Day )

( Smallville )


Some thoughts on new shows:
Life On Mars: I love the BBC version and had no plans to watch the American one and then they cast Harvey Keitel as Gene Hunt. Brilliant does not begin to cover how much i like this choice - I felt Colm Meaney was badly cast Gene Hunt in the original American pilot. So while Harvey will have to go a long way to best Philip Glenister and I don't see Jason O'Mara being any where near as good as John Simm, I will be watching next Thursday for sure.

The Eleventh Hour: Didn’t like it when Patrick Stewart did it on the BBC so I won’t be watching this one

Fringe: Watched it twice – It felt like a low rent x-files. I'm done with it but Hubby likes it, so i may end up continuing to watch anyway.

True Blood: All this did was make me miss Moonlight which was a good Vampire show. This was just bad on every level.

The Mentalist: Haven’t seen it yet. It seems like a bad version of Psych without the cool Shawn and Gus banter. Though I adore Simon Baker and keep meaning to catch it Anybody have anything to say to recommend this?


Next time I'll cover the comedies

Already missing my summer shows Burn Notice, excellent finale, and Psych.

So what are your thoughts about the return of your favorite shows. Any new ones I should be watching?
