I've made it through to like the second episode of season two, but I'm just about ready to give up on it. The show really seems to have gone downhill after its initial three or four episodes. The storylines don't seem very well though out (Numb3rs is shockingly better in that regard). It drives me crazy that Allison never makes the logical assumption about what her visions mean (until well after the viewer does); and I hate hate hate that, even though Allison's yet to be wrong about almost anything, the DA and cop still dismiss her every notion and treat her like a quackjob.

Mad Men
Four episodes in and vaguely interested. Mainly digging the representation of early 60s sex roles. I sort of cringe whenever Vincent Kartheiser is on screen. He reminds me of a high school freshman trying to play an adult role in the fall play. (ohhhhhhhhhhh! Angel! That's where I know him from. Been driving me crazy.)

American Ninja Warrior
Set up a series recording for this tonight. Just because.

Dawson's Creek
Started season two tonight. Every episode not enlivened by a drinking game continues to be a struggle.

Glee Project
Haven't caught up with tonight's episode yet but still loving this show.

That's pretty much Kartheiser's character for the first season or so.  He's gone from someone I just hated to being one of my favorite characters.

Sex & the City is actually very funny and smartly written.

I'm very confident in my dislike of the show. Unfortunately, I've seen probably 80% of the episodes.
