Summer is good, with Mad Men, Kyle XY, The Dead Zone and The 4400, but many of the so-called "cutting edge" shows are not entertainment to me. They're too hard-edged and at times, downright callous and mean. While many critics may find these shows an enjoyable respite from the more generic network offerings, but I guess I'm just an average American who likes NCIS, Bones and Supernatural, and am looking forward to the premiers of Pushing Daisies, Moonlight, and the mid-season offering, New Amsterdam!

And I’d answer: me. I’m looking forward to the new season, and hoping against hope that House will be less formulaic. I think the summer season is vastly overrated - I’m don’t care for John from Cincy, except to see old Deadwood actors gainfully employed. Damages? Army Wives? The Closer? Nah, parting gifts for all, Johnny Olson. [...] [...] “With Summer TV this Good, Who Needs Fall?” asks the TV Addict. And I’d answer: me.

The summer cable shows in my opinion have been terrific. My shows? The Closer, Saving Grace, Damages, Eureka, Burn Notice, Monk, Psych, Painkiller Jane, The Kill Point, The Company, The 4400, The Dead Zone (Not in the order of preference, just Monday-Sunday). All of those are my can't miss. *shrug* But... I am REALLY looking forward to the fall season. Especially some of the new shows. :D I actually agree with Flutie AND with The TV Addict both.

My summer TV has consisted of The 4400 (which I enjoy enough that it could be a fall show), Kyle XY, and assorted game shows. I'm ready for the fall TV season. I can't wait for my favorites like The Office (Jim and Pam!!!!), 30 Rock, How I Met Your Mother, Heroes, etc. And there are also a number of great new fall shows (Pushing Daisies = Amazing) I guess I’ve missed out, since I haven’t watched any of these new summer shows.

Rescue Me has dropped in my book, though Damages has been a stellar summer show....but I still find myself wanting more shows that can compare to the greatness of all those fall shows I miss so dearly. Lost, 24, The Office, Prison Break....the big guns are just waiting in the wings until these summer shows run their course.
