I haven’t watched any of the shows people talk about – sorry but they are very bland but I love Michael Vartan he was the only reason I sat through 4 seasons of Alias. I have actually heard that Big Shots is a good show so I am looking forward to seeing it. Only MV can bring me back to commercial tv.

One Tree Hill is not MINDLESS junk…it’s entertaining junk that has awesome actors…bad dialog, and ackward story lines…leading to a great wed. night! But LOST is WAY BETTER! SO IS SCRUBS ON NBC THURSDAY NIGHTS THIS FALL AT 9:30!!! as for the war at home…yes that is mindless junk along with, according to jim, grey’s anatomy, american idol (even though i watch this…I DON”T KNOW WHY!), dancing with the stars, most things on fox…even more on the CW!!! the list is endless…especcially when entering in the CABLE FACTOR! lol!

Don’t get me wrong gang, I love Lost. I think I loved Lost too much and then got disappointed by the lackluster beginning of this season. Since then, I have been watching, and enjoying the episodes, off and on. I’m just saying it’s going to take something huge in the finale (which, don’t worry, I hear that we’re getting), to keep me invested in the off season!

To be fair – in our house, I’m stuck watching things like One Tree Hill, The War at Home, and other mindless dreck. Believe me when I say that Veronica ranks highly above that. But you’re all right – it definitely isn’t what is used to be, and I think, critically, it may have been overrated. It’s more about a personal investment and a knowledge of the people behind the scenes that makes me harbor a huge crush on the show itself.

Addict, you surprise me. LOST is, as I’ve stated before, the very best drama in TV history. If you’re not enjoying this ride, I wonder what it takes to catch your fancy?

Veronica may be the most-overrated, over-hyped show in TV history. Seriously, this show doesn’t hold a candle to Buffy or Felicity, in terms of girl-led shows. I can certainly live w/o it.

I’ll always be a loyal fan to Grey’s, but you’re right. Some of those storylines were like huh..?
Especially doing what theyre doing to the Meredith and Derek fans. If theres ONE thing I HATE about television shows, it’s ruining a perfectly good couple’s happiness just to create “drama” for the show. It’s like working up to finally resolving these characters and paying the viewers off, and then BAM slappin in the face!

If you haven’t liked the back half of Season 3 of LOST, then give up. It’s been great from Not in Portland on with the exclusion of Stranger in a Strange Land. It’s been a great mix of WTF and action with interludes of pure entertainment like TTID and Expose and even they had moments that paid off later. Seriously, if you didn’t like TMFT, The Brig, FBYE, it’s time to get lost because LOST doesn’t want or need you to gripe about it.

….. during its worst episode, this show[Veronica Mars] is still eons above the other shows I watch…..

No. No, it wasn’t. You saw the atrocious after school special, “UnAmerican Graffiti,” that masqueraded as an episode of Veronica Mars? You saw the dreadfully dull Paul Rudd episode with no mystery at all? What is this collective psychosis going on about Veronica Mars? Why can’t any of the critics recognize that the reason it’s cancelled is because it WAS VERY BAD this season. It was *not* quality television. It was unending Veronica/Logan tripe. It was “shipping” for tween girls. It was no follow through with Dick losing his entire family. Former fans like myself abandoned it and the audience didn’t grow. I didn’t sign up for that nonsense. How very average Veronica became this season. Why Rob Thomas tried to change it into a Gilmore Girly type show I’ll never know, but I didn’t like it. Its worst episode certainly was *not* better than most of what’s on TV. Please tell the truth. Veronica lost whatever made her special a long time ago. Please take Piz’s hair with you wherever you go.

Agree with both you and Jenny!!!

However…I’m still liking LOST, although it is starting to lack the mystery I loved so much!

As for what im looking foward to next year…not much, actually it is mostly renewed series!
Scrubs, L&O SVU, LOST, Smallvile (ONLY IF CHOLE LIVES ;-p), Family Guy, One Tree Hill (set 4 years in advanced!!!), and the resurection of Futurama!!!!!!! (On COMEDY CENTRAL!)

New shows: Jezzebel James (maybe), Reaper and Aliens In America (I will try)…

I’m right there with you on Veronica Mars & Jericho. Very, VERY sad way to end the season.

I’m also REALLY looking forward to Pushing Daisies, but I also can’t wait to see Women’s Murder Club (because I absolutely adore the book series) and am hoping it’s better than everyone is saying right now.
