What television shows are you currently keeping up with? I don't watch my TV anymore (my viewing dropped considerably back during the 'reality tv' trend).
But there are a few shows I catch every week.
King of the Hill - This is the only animated show on FOX's 'Sunday Animation Block' that I can still stand. It's on its last leg in the 11th season (which it almost didn't have), and I'm pretty sure this will be the end of it. But I've enjoyed it, and I'm getting used to FOX canceling my favorite shows by now.
Prison Break - I find myself often comparing this show to AD&D for some reason. It's easy to assign the main characters alignments (T-Bag is so Chaotic Evil) and I often comment on how much the DM must hate those guys, because bad things are constantly happening to them. It's like Chaos Theory is running at full power. The plot twists keep things interesting, though, and I like how they aren't afraid to kill off main characters. Season 2 just ended, so now I'm waiting for the third one.
Drive - This show just started a little while ago, and so far, I like it. I mean a show where Nathan Fillion hits people and makes witty remarks? What's not to love about that? But then again, we all know what happened to the last show on FOX that starred Nathan Fillion...
Veronica Mars - Much like Joe Dunn, creator of Joe Loves Crappy Movies, I find it difficult to explain why this CW show is good without sounding dumb. It's in the middle of the third season, but they interrupted it for several months (it will finish out this May). Whether it will be renewed or not is unknown.
Jericho - Of the four, this is my favorite. I really look forward to it each week on CBS. It's a show about America getting nuked and how the people of a small Kansas town deal with it. I like the plot, I like the characters (and their development) and I like the various possibilities the show explores (like how the politics would be affected and such).
