I am not one to jump on the trendy bandwagon. I usually get into something after the trend long passes.

When Seinfeld came out, I just graduated high school and couldn't relate to the characters whining about relationships. Fast forward to this year, and at 36, I started watching it and love it. I think that Elaine Benes is quite something.

Another show that got my attention this year is the Avengers from the 60s. What a surreal show with sci-fi, espionage, and Diana Rigg. There would be no Austin Powers without the Avengers.

I love the old shows. I never got into the Survivors, Idol, and all the modern stuff.

Watched the first episode of 'The Closer' and 'The Cleaner'. An episode of 'Saving Grace'. That was enough for me.

I forgot about Lost (caught bits and pieces, seems like the most slow-moving, pointless thing ever!) and Prison Break. And Oz. I don't really get the appeal of a show set in prison? Sexy inmates or no...
