obviously you didn't stick around long enought to see that Echo is slowly begining to have an independent personality.
Actually, I am current up to the 4th or 5th show of the 2nd season.
Too little, too late, too lame.
I liked JW's other work (in order of awesomeness):
Firefly (Damn you Fox!)
BVS
Angel
DH is just not in the same league.
FTR, I thought Terminator: SCC was a much better show than DH. (Damn you, Fox!)
The guy should just make internet TV shows.
I'm sure we'd all pay to see them.
I have seen every episode of DH on hulu, so that might work.
House I liked through season 3. The new team and House's recent antics just don't live up to the old standards, imo. Dexter, sadly, I have not watched. True blood, however... definitely not on the list.
It's not bad, but it's not good either. The Wire, Sopranos, Arrested Devel, and Mad Men are quality tv. I just finished watching The Wire, actually, after having nabbed a copy from amazon last winter at a steep discount. I really liked it. That's the only dvd set I've bought sight-unseen, and I don't regret it. Mad Mad is good but requires a taste for retro-style tv.
Meanwhile, from the 90's, Murder One is what the Law&Order series should be.
Yep, House has jumped the shark.
I saw a couple of episodes of Dexter while on travel for work and it was
very well done. It also is one of those shows that, if you are not a moral cripple, you really need to take a shower afterwards to get the moral slime off. I got a similar vibe off DH, but DH never was as well-done and doesn't have the impact.
Hmm, I might have to buy/borrow The Wire, as yous is yet another in an unbroken string of good reviews for it.
Castle is pretty good for light fare.
I have heard good things about Breaking Bad.
