At least we have Reality TV......

Since I was a young pup TV has been a faithful companion, and even with alcohol and degenrate lifestyles being introduced to me over the past 15 years, I still find time to hug my TV set and give thanks. Here are some TV related links.

Entertainment Weekly has a list of "30 TV Shows You'd Bring Back from the Grave", which includes some personal favorites. Off this list I'd go with.......

- The greatest show ever Freaks & Geeks. It's pretty amazing to see how this cast blew-up. From starring in big time TV hits, (ER and How I Met Your Mother) to the Judd Apatow - the show's creator for you simpleton's - gravy train (Knocked-Up, Superbad, 40 year Old Virgin), and of course James Franco, starring in all three Spiderman movies.

- Arrested Development, 2nd greatest show ever.

- Rome, even though I had no real problem with it ending before it became to drawn out and boring.

- My So-Called Life, Jared Leto and Claire Danes before they become unbearable.

- Boomtown, blew most cop shows out of the water, great cast...yes even with the Wahlberg, who I'm actually a fan of. The premise of this show is the same as that new movie with Dennis Quaid and Matthew Fox, Vantage Point . Showing the crime committed from all points of view, cops, victim, and the perp. Good times.

- Jack & Bobby, which had a good premise, just not sure it could have sustained a full run.

Shows not on this list that should be are;

- Firefly, see the movie Serenity if you never heard of this show. Watching that flick almost inspired me to start a e-mail campaign begging for this shows reinstatement. But then I realized I was lazy.

- John Doe, starring that dude who now plays Lincoln on Prison Break. It had a "Lost meets The Fugitive" feel to it, unfortunately they couldn't figure out what to do with it.

-Homicide: Life in the Street, before The Wire, this show depicted the the hardened streets of Baltimore, plus it was extemely entertaining. Showcased some top talent such as Andre Braugher.

-Help Me Help You, with Ted Danson as a self-involved Pyshiatrist. Hard to go through what made this show so damn funny. Whatever it was, it made me chuckle.
