New TV Part III: The Last Part

September 29, 2007

To wrap up my rundown of the new TV week, here are all the shows I watched ranked into a convenient ranking list -  Screw Attack style (they are the best at saying numbers)- with short notes.  Enjoy!
#10: Journeyman: The show I enjoyed least this week.  I’ll try it again next week for the sake of [...]

New TV Part II: The Second Part

September 28, 2007

Back again with my review of the second 1/2 of the new TV week; let’s not waste my time…
