I'm suddenly addicted to TV again thanks to my DVR and ability to skip commercials.
5) 24:
Just when it seemed like the show was in serious danger of jumping the shark (what with Jack's torture routine getting staler than bread six seasons old, and with the super predicatable about face that Jack's dad does), the show suddenly made a sharp turn to the left (yes, pun totally intended), with an Obama-esque president mouthing platitudes about civil liberties. Wow! Miracles are possible even in this day and age? Or is it just good ol money talking? (with Fox simply veering towards current public sentiment?)
4) The daily show with Jon Stewart:
4) The daily show with Jon Stewart:
Jon has suddenly got his mojo back. He is actually speaking complete sentences, and resorts to making juvenile faces and blowing raspberries only once in every 2 minutes (as opposed to every 2 seconds a few months ago). The high profile guests in his show are proof of his rising influence - Bill Gates the day Vista was launched, Joe Biden on the day of his famous gaffe were some good ones
3)Tonight show with Jay Leno:
Still an all time favorite for me. I'm trying to like Letterman for my hubby's sake, but Jay is too funny, night after night
2) American Idol
The season has actually gotten off to a good start, with some genuine heart warming moments, a Paula who promises to be as loopy as ever, Randy's count of the word "dawg" quickly reaching 1 million, and Simon saying what everyone else really wants to. Watch out for Bailey Brown. Shes probably the next idol.
1) Countdown with Keith OlbermannThis is quite simply the best show on TV (MSNBC). Keith discusses the top 5 news topics of the day, and the topics cover a wide range of subjects - politics, movies, scandals, sports, UFO sightings, and also lists the top newsmakers of the day, and the "worst persons in the world"!!! Warm, funny, patriotic, passionate, opinionated, fiercely independent and totally fearless- Keith is a shining beacon of hope in today's world of party hacks and suits mindlessly mouthing talking points.
