The Fall Television Season

Do you have a favorite TV show that you can't wait for the return of?  Are you looking forward to a new show you've heard about?  Are you like me and bummed out that some of your favorite cable TV shows have ended for the season?

I am a big fan of TNT's The Closer starring Kyra Sedgewick.  The last episode of the season aired this Monday night, leaving viewers with a cliffhanger ending that won't be resolved until January 2009.  I also enjoy USA's Monk, starring Tony Shaloub.  The defective-detective and his odd assortment of quirky friends has been making me laugh for seasons now, and I always feel a bit sad on Friday night when there isn't a new episode to watch.

I am looking forward to next weeks premiere episode of ABC's Dancing With The Stars.  It is one of the few shows on network TV that I truly enjoy watching.  I know there are some people who get upset about some of the skimpy outfits, especially in the Latin dances, and they have a valid point, but it is also one of the most fun and purely entertaining shows on TV for my money.  The contestants don't spend the whole time plotting how to get rid of the other contestants, they actually cheer one another on.  It is fun watching people famous for something else try something completely out of their element.  I give them a lot of credit just for attempting it.

I am interested in what everyone else is watching these days and what makes the shows you watch appealing to you.  Please leave me a comment and let me know your opinion.
