I will continue to watch the show because I do enjoy the performances being put in by most of the cast and I do find the writing, especially the dialogue, to be be entertaining. As I said before, Sorkin be damned! [...] [...] JPo and Ed railed against Studio 60 in the comments of last week’s Tellyman post and I can’t say I disagree with a lot of what they say.

Don’t forget to mention Jonathan Togo of CSI: Miami. You went to school with him too, right?

There are a few shows worth mentioning though... Veronica Mars Grey's Anatomy - borrowed the 1st season from Jason & Karen and now I'm hooked! Too bad it's competing w/my other fave, CSI The Office - this season is somewhat lackluster so far, but I'm sure it will heat up Here's a tidbit for you ...

I have dubbed this weekly feature, Tele Mundo. Both Lost and 24 will continue to receive their own dedicated columns – thus continuing the work I began last year – while everything else will filter through this weekly post.

So essentially - you get one pretty decent mini-series. Meaning - I may hang to see this thing through - knowing that I'll have some time freed up fairly soon.

As for whether or not they actually air them all so we get a wrap-up... we'll see. What do you think Ed? Going to hang for the rest now that you know it is a goner or just forget about it now?

In fact, in addition to the Barney factor, that's true for <em>How I Met Your Mother</em> and I suppose for <em>Veronica Mars</em> also (at least I can still point to Joss Whedon and Stephen King as fanboys of the show too though). For instance, the <em>Battlestar Galactica</em> use of "frak" seems to be catching on as it was parodied in last night's VM episode and I also read about it earlier in the week, either on the web or in <em>Entertainment Weekly</em>. Gotta keep up on the new slang since we ain't young anymore and it's better that way than some lame tutorial in 1337 on <em>Kidnapped</em>.
