Oh the laughter. Wait. You were serious? ;) I do commend you on nailing the "lamest storyline" category yet again, and having a category called: "SHOWS WE’RE PSYCHED FOR THIS WEEK THAT DON’T STAR KRISTEN BELL." Love it.

I was basically watcing that Maya storyline going.. gawd... i need to read again? as for Aliens in America, it had SUCH a great episode. I still liked Pushing Daisies ep this week better but AiA was up there with Ugly Betty and 30 Rock (and even Gossip Girl had a good ep sans Nate and Chuck).

While this will seem completely cynical of me. My big issue with the Maya storyline is that I feel it's simply a way for HEROES to further develop itself as a "worldwide phenomenom" (according to NBC's marketing dept.) The cynical side of me thinks that the powers that be clearly saw how well the character of Hiro was received in Asia and though.... "hmmm if we're going to sell this to Latin America, why not include another story with subtitles!" Rod….. While this will seem completely cynical of me.

That's not the case with Heroes, though. If the story being told is good, I don’t see the problem in reading subtitles. That’s not the case with Heroes, though.

I really liked the pilot and thought it was pretty original. But now it's nothing more than every other family sitcom I've ever seen (except for the missing laugh track). Last week's episode was too over the top for me, I didn't laugh once and was pretty bored. Don't know if I'll keep watching. I agree on FNL though. Still love that show more than any other right now. But from the new shows I prefer "Chuck", "Pushing Daisies" and "Gossip Girl". Also, last week's ep of "Private Practice" was finally good...

The new interns have completely re-invogorated an interesting albeit very formulaic show. Matt, I’ve absolutely loved HOUSE this year.

However, my TiVo also picked up for me the Sunday night rerun of Aliens in America's pilot episode. And, I'll have to admit, it's pretty good. It has sharp writing, interesting characters, and good performances. There was at least one laugh-out-loud moment and several make-you-grin kind of moments. With my Mondays already filled up, I still won't bother with a season pass for it, but I did give it two thumbs up so that TiVo will continue to pick up any weekend reruns. As for best episodes of the past week, I'd say they belong to Chuck, Heroes, Beauty and the Geek, Kid Nation, and Men In Trees.

Grey's is BACK as is Desp. Housewives.. just got into Fri.Nite Lites..LOVE it, too.. and there's Chuck and Dexter and..Aliens in America..what a funny, laugh out loud, and wonderful show. I am so happy with television (and my DVR!) these days ..I hope Journeyman catches on.. I truly enjoy it and I'm afraid that it'll be cancelled together with Life.

There is not 1 blog Entry for it. I have yet to see the latest Episode(I`m from germany, so .. well .. dow..n... u know what ;)), but the first 2 were great. It must be really ... "funny" to get out of jail, after 10 years from 1997 on. U know, Ipod here, IM there and all that stuff. Well, if we talk about underdogs:
