Yea, the story in Entourage was actually not terrible, but how they carried it out was god awful (except for Ari and Mrs. Ari).
Also, wtf 10 episode season? I mean, Entourage has been bad but at least they could fill a season. They must really be struggling.
And what are they going to do to write off Scott? He's supposed to be in the the new Hawaii 5-0. Is he going to do both now? I really thought they'd get him out in the finale.
Btw, ef all of you who mocked me when I said at the beginning of the season Vince had/would develope a drug problem because "one week of doing drugs doesn't lead to having a problem" or some bs.

thanks so so many of you talking about how bad True Blood was going to be, I expected the worst. frankly, half of it didn't shock me 'cause I read a few of the books, but it felt like half an episode because NOTHING WAS CONCLUDED.

I don't watch True Blood but it sounds exactly like the Sopranos after Season 4. Sometimes shows get too big for their own good.

I think most people here hate Survivor but it's always been good to me. It has a little football theme with Jimmy Johnson as one of the contestants this year.

I used to be a big fan but after awhile I just felt like "been there done that" it just got to be repetitive.

I started watching Supernatural as my latest mega marathon show, and it's intriguingish although I'm waiting for it to become more serialized.

This is a show I have always ment to start up but never have, I have been sucked in to a few repeats but never watched it from the start.
I'm in the middle of getting caught up on Friday Night Lights right now, I had forgot how epic of a show it is.

Are there any new shows that are supposed to be good on network TV that I need to check out? Dramas, comedies, whatever.

Of course I know about Boardwalk Empire Brodeur. I've been raving about on every page for the last month at least. Hell check out the first post on this page.

Lone Star looks awful.
I'm interested in Undercovers (NBC, JJ Abrams) and The Event (NBC). Both look semi interesting. No Ordinary Family (ABC) looks kind of interesting as well, and I'm a Michael Chiklis fan.

Awful, are you serious? It looks damn good and is getting ridiculous reviews. Oh yeah, and The Event looks like crap and the actual event is crap.

The Undercovers looks terrible to me. Abrams bothers me now for some reason. The Event I'm interested in and will check it out. It sounds like the writers have their stuff together.

Abrams has nothing to do with his shows after the first few episodes, ala Fringe and Lost.

That's not really the reason I'm not going to watch it was more of a general statement. The show just doesn't look interesting to me.

Are you kidding? Is this a joke? Am I being Punk'd? Where are you Ashton! Lone Star looks REALLY stupid. Just downright awful.
And I'm sorry you feel that way about The Event, but some of us are still interested in finding out what it is. :)

How do you know what the event is? It's not like it's based on a book or anything. If you can answer that without runing the storyline that would be nice.

I like shows with new and interesting plots, as opposed to what will be a rehash of a billion other shows like The Event. It will probably be worse than Flash Forward.
EDIT: New York Magazine spoiled it a month or so ago, although they said it wasn't totally definite.

The Event looks dumb. Just looks like FlashForward, which was another attempt to piggyback on the success of LOST with a show that continually asks questions and gives no answers. Good marketing, but makes for bad TV.

Early reviews have been kind to The Event so we'll see. They ackowledged that they won't keep stringing people along and it will give answers to the questions that arises. FlashForward ended up being a good show but everyone refuses to admit it because nobody stuck it out. It was sort of like Parks & Rec that everyone killed here but now all you hear are good things mostly.
