Television Show Decisions

Television Show Decisions So heres the story. Each year I allow myself to faithfully follow four one-hour television shows. Cutting out the commercials (bless you Tivo, bless you) means I can watch these four shows in about three hours, and three hours is about as much time as Im willing to waste on television each week. The problem? Im having trouble thinning the herd. Thats where you come in. The contenders: LOST Ive been an addict for two years. Clearly this will be one of the four; no need for discussion. Heroes I absolutely love this show. Definitely not giving this one up either. Americas Next Top Model I blame my wife for this. I vowed never to watch this show, ever. But my wifes a photographer and managed to convince me that the photos at the end make the show worth watching. They dont. But the drama between the models does. The Nine Wasnt considering this until Nance told me it was sortof like LOST because of the interplay between past and the present. Nance even told me that JJ Abrams had something to do with this show, which turned out to be a complete LIE, but its too late Im hooked. Jericho Incredible marketing campaign; I was hooked before Id even seen the first episode. Too bad the marketing was much better than the actual show. The first two episodes sortof blew, but I stuck with it, hoping that it would deliver eventually. Its gotten better slowly, but Im not sure if its worthy of being one of the final four. Problem: I need to know who Robert Hawkins really is. Veronica Mars My wife has been addicted to this show from the very first episode. I finally got sucked in this year its really good. Ugly Betty I had no interest in this show but my mom told me to watch it, so I gave it a shot. Its really well done, actually. I love her character. The OC Long-time readers will note that Ive never missed an episode of this show. But with Marissa gone, I dont have high hopes for this season. I feel like the show might be in trouble, but theres something to be said for viewer loyalty. Hmmm. House Another one of my favorites; I cant imagine cutting this one. I think Greg House is one of the best characters in the history of television. Thoughts? I imagine there are some shows out there that I havent seen yet, so if you really want to complicate things, feel free to add some to the list. :-)
