What shows are you guys watching? I watched a bunch of the new show initially, but the only ones I enjoyed and continue to watch are <em>Life on Mars<\/em> and <em>Fringe<\/em>. <a title=\"US Version\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Life_on_Mars_(U.S._TV_series)\" target=\"_blank\"><em>Life on Mars<\/em><\/a> is a remake of a Britsh show of the <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Life_on_Mars_(TV_series)\" target=\"_blank\">same title<\/a> that I really enjoyed. It is about a current day police detective who is hit by a car and wakes up in 1973. It is unclear if the lead character is dreaming while in a coma, in purgatory or actually traveled through time. Each episode usually features a crime of the week that is somehow linked to his life in 2008&#8230; I think the British verison was a better. <a title=\"Fringe Science?\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Fringe_(TV_series)\" target=\"_blank\"><em>Fringe<\/em><\/a> is being hailed as the new <a title=\"Oldie but goodie\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/X-files\" target=\"_blank\"><em>X-files<\/em><\/a>. It is about a FBI agent who works with a mentaly unstable, discredited scientist and his genuis son to investigate a series of mysteriously linked crimes that also seem to be connected to the doctor&#8217;s old research. Unlike the simarly themed British remake <a title=\"US Version\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/The_Eleventh_Hour_(TV_series)\" target=\"_blank\"><em>Eleventh hour<\/em><\/a>, where a man with a Ph.D. in apparently every field known to man yells things like &#8220;No amount of money in the world will stop the virus that is raging a was inside of you&#8221; to infected bad guys, <em>Fringe <\/em>knows that it is not exactly based in reality. Returning shows that I&#8217;ve been watching include the Tina Fey&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/30_rock\" target=\"_blank\"><em>30 rock<\/em><\/a>, offbeat crime serial <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Life_(TV_series)\" target=\"_blank\"><em>Life<\/em><\/a> and spy comedy<em> <a title=\" \" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Chuck_(TV_series)\" target=\"_blank\">Chuc<\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Chuck_(TV_series)\" target=\"_blank\">k<\/a><\/em>. Of course my two favorite shows, <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/24_tv\" target=\"_blank\"><em>24<\/em><\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Battlestar_Galactica#2003_reimagining\" target=\"_blank\"><em>Battlestar<\/em> <em>Galatica<\/em><\/a> haven&#8217;t started yet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The new TV season is about a month old.
