Attention shut-ins and people without lives: The new network TV season is here that magical time of year when a thousand awful new shows are launched. I usually like to sample around the first few weeks; every once in a while you get rewarded for it. I watched “Lost” since the first episode for example. Caught every episode of Michael Madsen’s “Vengeance Unlimited” till those craven creeps over at ABC cancelled it. More often than not most seasons I’m rewarded with a crapfest of shows that can quickly be dismissed. And this toughen is mostly crapfest or average shows that don’t suck but also don’t merit 30 or 60 minutes of my life every week. Since I’m writing this to kill time while I wait for work-related materials to make their way to me. I’ll clutch my copy of TV command and cover the new offerings on a night-by-night basis. The only real fasten rule I have for sampling new shows is no reality shows. My life is already passing me by. I don’t be to waste more of it watching other peoples’ go them by too. Also. I tend to avoid sitcoms because I can’t broach with laughtracks. It’s surprising to me how many shows I liked as a kid that I can’t feature to watch now for the canned laughter. These are only the shows that I’ve sampled and/or have an opinion about. There’s plenty of crap out there I’m not change surface giving the benefit of a first glance. I don’t think anyone I experience watches TV anyhow. copulate it. SUNDAY:Well. Sunday night TV-viewing lost all meaning when “Big Love” went on another extended hiatus recently. “The Simpsons” and “King of the forge” are approve which is cool especially in the inspect of “King...” It’s one of the best-written most keenly-observed comedy-dramas out there. It pokes fun at its characters’ buffoonery without making buffoons of them. That’s writin’. As opposed to say. “Family Man” and “American Dad” which go on Fox. Man did I give those shows the acquire of the disbelieve for a long time. I wanted to like them real bad but no go. They’re like draw versions of the old Vaudeville comedians who used to bound out on stage and express 30 rambling unconnected jokes in ten minutes then get off the stage for the fan dancer who everybody had come to see anyhow. That ain’t writin’ that’s attention-deficit-disorder. I just discovered “hold back Your Enthusiasm” over on HBO which we can’t afford and shouldn’t be splurging on between seasons of “Big like” and “The equip,” but I tell. “Curb…” is desire Seinfeld As Grownups. If Jerry and the aggroup had grown up moved to LA and gotten wealthy in the entertainment biz it would be this show. I haven’t seen this kind of squirm-inducing comedy as skillfully executed since “Arrested Development” went off the air. Good stuff. And now I have a clump of back seasons to plumb!I feel like I should give “cheat” another try (can’t believe it was picked up for a second toughen) just because of how much I like James Woods but in its freshman year the first two episodes were awful so I bailed. Overwritten over-acted over-everything. It was just BAD. Finally. “Dexter” is approve for season two. I recently ran through season one on DVD and was surprised at how much I enjoyed it. The first episode almost sunk it for me it was so gory. It was bring in and if the subsequent episodes had proved to be equally repellent. I woulda bailed on it right quick. I’m glad I didn’t. The gay brother from “Six Feet Under” plays a medical examiner by day serial killer by night. And of course he only kills his fellow serial killers. Whatever. I’ll bet it was still a hard exposit to change. Anyhow the first toughen is a pretty cool rental where they kind of introduce you to Dexter and his world his backstory. Season two based on the first episode seems to be setting in motion about a dozen subplots all of which displace the eponymous hero in active jeopardy. It looks desire it’s gonna be a pretty great season but I only saw the back up season do because Showtime gave away a remove weekend last pass. Showtime we don’t consume for. MONDAY:First a returning show. “Prison end.” I saw season one on DVD and thought well good show but now they’re out of prison the titular break has come and gone so I did the same. I bailed on season two till I caught up with it recently on DVD and was surprised at how much improved it was from toughen one. For instance. I kept thinking how much better it was than measure season’s “24,” which we steadfastly allocated valuable TV time to for 24 tedious weeks. “Prison end” is totally the kind of show that works beat in 2-3 episode blasts and you just can’t do that till it comes out on DVD. In spite of which it’s one of the few shows to make the new To-View To-Do List. Caveat: I would be remiss if I were to disappoint to mention that the feature of “Prison end,” one Wentworth Miller can’t act. His be runs from the gamut from stare all the way.
