Good TV

I like, very much, Raising the Bar, The Closer (best cop show going, by far) Burn Notice and True Blood. Good but could be much better, In Plain Sight. Lie To Me became formulaic after the first 6 episodes. Sorry Mr. Roth, think you're terrific but this show isn't. Fringe can not come back fast enough. GREAT show. Suspenseful, interesting, excellent writing and a cameo, in the season ending episode, from Leonard Nemoy as William Bell. Come on people, it just doesn't get any better than that.

My, my, my....

Yet another republican gets his hand caught in the cookie jar and it is no news for folks like Ann Coulter and Rush Limbaugh. The other folks that give this short shrift are the Christian apologists. It's so great to be a Christian isn't it? What a great concept. You're accorded respect simply for proclaiming that you believe Jesus Christ is/was the son of God. And it is almost expected that you will fall victim to temptation. If you do succumb, well we have a response for that too, you are forgiven. Excellent. Perfect. So, perfect.

If you are not watching True Blood you are missing a great, campy, show. It has a good combination of humor and suspense. New characters are continually being developed and the writing is better than the critiques will lead you to believe. Give it a try.
