Favorite Returning Shows

I feel like making a list of my favorite returning shows for some reason. I had a difficult time ranking them, so only #1 is definite.

Honorable Mentions

24 -- I didn’t watch last season because my DVR messed up the first recordings. I will be checking it out on DVD and I’m sure I’ll get hooked again.

The Dead Zone -- I wish they’d spend more time on the main story-line and have fewer “filler” episodes.

Desperate Housewives -- I didn’t much care for the second season, but the actors still make me want to watch.

How I Met Your Mother -- Just missed the list. I love Barney.

Monk -- Tony Shalhoub makes this worth watching.

Psych -- Light, fun show, but I've only seen two episodes so far.

Smallville -- Can be very good, but too much "filler".

*********************************************

My Favorites

10. Bones -- The characters and actors who play them keep this from being just another procedural show.

9. Gilmore Girls -- This show was disappointing last season. I hope it moves up the list this season.

8. Prison Break -- Despite the implausibility of pretty much everything in this show, it got me hooked and kept me on the edge of my seat.

7. Grey's Anatomy -- This is soapy, but the acting continues to impress me.

6. Everybody Hates Chris -- Very funny with a great cast. Love the Chris Rock narration.

5. Lost -- I'm hooked on this mysterious show. I just hope they know where they are going with it.

4. My Name is Earl -- These characters crack me up.

3. Scrubs -- This show is getting even crazier and I love it.

2. Battlestar Galactica -- This is very heavy drama and very addictive.

1. Veronica Mars – Easily my favorite show that is still on the air. Please check it out!

kelli-

i have watched season one of Veronica Mars and i really liked it. thanks for letting me borrow the dvd's. i've caught a few episodes from season two in reruns, but i've missed some. i go back and forth between not watching so i can watch them all in sequence on dvd, and really wanting to see them so i decide to just watch the random reruns i can catch. i'm looking forward to seeing all of season two.

Hi, Amy! Glad you like it. I would personally wait for the DVDs (I'll be buying them if you want to borrow them). I do understand how addictive it is though. You might try to at least avoid watching the finale.
