It's January...what TV shows are you watching and why?
Since it's January 2007 I'm curious about what TV shows you are all watching and why? This seems to be the month where new shows or new seasons of shows start (i.e. 24) or current shows resume their schedules (i.e. LOST, Heroes). Those happen to be my favorite shows for various reasons (24, LOST, Heroes).
I'm wondering about you. What shows do you and your friends watch? Why? Is it the show? Is it the community? Both? Do the shows have any redeeming value? Just pure fun?
On a personal note as I stated above my favorite shows to watch are 24, LOST and Heroes. 24 is just pure action from beginning to end and I'm on the edge of my seat for months. When the clock ticks down to the final minute of that hour and it ends I am already anxiously waiting for next week's episode. LOST is pure mystery and unresolved tension and issues, and my brain is constantly spinning trying to figure out different theories. When the episode ends I usually end up going online to see what bloggers are hypothesizing about the episode. Heroes is a new show and I'm hooked on the characters, especially Hiro. I'm thinking a lot about people living "into" who they are...or fulfilling what they believe they were created for...or utilizing a gift. I could go on about each of these, but i would like to hear from you.

The only show I really watch anymore is Veronica Mars. I love shows with strong female leads, and this one definitely fits the bill. It's cleverly written, and I rarely solve the mystery before the reveal each season!

Rhett, don't get me started on my favorite TV shows, I could go on all day about them. But here are my current must-see TV hits:
1. Heroes - I totally agree with you on this one, I'm on pins and needles up until the end. Hiro's wide-eyed wonder and the cool hero awakening is a great parallel to how Christians should link up in unity to tell the world who really saved the cheerleader and saved the world. Check out my blog http://scifijournalist.blospot.com for the 411 on why I like Heroes so much.
2. Smallville - the justice league is about to form, enough said.
3. Friday Night Lights - I had no intention on liking this show but my football playing brothers got me hooked on it. And it's really good! The characters are very realistic and this show has made a fresh art of character interaction...it's heartfelt, raw and inspiring. You can't help but cheer the Panthers on!
It's definately a good year for TV.
