Alphas is coming up in July as well; Monday, July 23, 2012.

It's a fun show with advanced human heroes and villains, but not crazy powerful ones like in X-Men. However it is built like it in a way as there certainly are similarities between the two.

Check it out!

New season of Futurama has started.

First 2 episodes were enjoyable.

I quit watching after that as it really didn't grab me, but would give it a second go with season 2 coming up if there was hope that it improved.
I gave up after Ep 10 or so. I found it to be a chore to watch this show.

Few channels on satellite are replaying Friday Night Lights. A nice reminder of just what an incredible show that was.

I'm 5 minute into the newsroom and I'm already prepared I say that Jeff Daniels wins the Emmy for best actor in a landslide.

I actually really enjoyed this show. It has been so long since season 1 ended though that I kind of forgot about it.

The autistic kid does crack me up though.

Four episodes into the third season of Louie, and it's been great.

Episode 4 that airs today, about dating, was awesome.

Anyone still watching the 2nd season of Suits? It's been fantastic. Probably my second favorite show that is currently playing new episodes. This season has surpassed the initial season by quite a large margin.

Love it.

The U.S. version of MasterChef is just so far inferior to the Australian version in every way, shape, and form that it is just laughable.

USA Network has been trying hard to produce good stuff. It started with Bruce Campbell in Burn Notice (getting his cult followers was a huge win) and then the Royal Pains series. It's not as strong as Burn Notice was but it still brought the interest and dollars. This gave USA Network the ability to add Suits and another name Gina Torres. Gina has her own fans from Firefly and other Joss Whedon shows. Suits is a well built story that has been staying away from the heavy relationship BS that it had last season. That is why it's stronger imo. They are actually telling a story based around the high priced lawyers.

There is another show on USA called Necessary Roughness - it dances around football but it's all about a female psychiatrist and her relationship BS. They took a football concept and wrapped a heavy female "issue" around it. It's terrible and IMDB's 6.7 rating is generous. I dropped it from my viewing selection. IT'S FOOTBALL USA NETWORK! STOP FRACKING AROUND!

Happy to see Grimm again. It came into it's own last season and is a fun watch. Don't take it seriously and you'll enjoy it.
