TV shows?

That's really sad to hear. DAMN!

I need a Candice Bergen fix, anyway, so I can't wait for it.

The whole Shatner/Spader thing is what got me to watch.

Exactly. I might add Bravo, too.

Reno 911

Chili - did you see the season finale of Reno where Trudy was marrying her weirdo death row boyfriend? Hysterical! "Listen up, Trud may be a f*cking retard, but she's our f*cking retard, Godd*mmit!"

I'll throw in TLC & Food Network.

And thanks for the Logan pics, Haley. Although he does look quite dweebish in the second one.

Well, at least the original show is coming to DVD next month.

I started watching it because I was a huge fan of The Practice and I love Mark Valley and Monica Potter, but that Denny Crane stuff just got on my nerves after so long. Spader is and always will be a hoot, though.

AKA The Kathy Griffin Network.

I'm on pins and needles waiting for her to agree to doing a second season. Kathy Griffin is my crack.

I like Shatner on the show. It's Monica Potter and Mark Valley that I dislike. I love the relationship between Spader & Shatner, and I loooooved Candice Bergen with the Shat. Crane comes before Schmidt. Hee.

Me, too, Mark Valley and Potter.
Candice is ok, she's a little strident in her delivery (always has been) for me, but she's pretty funny (yes, I know, you love her).
So, did you see the commercials, isn't Heather Locklear coming for at least a bit?
I'll miss Spader with Potter.

I think she's just on the season opener. Fine with me because television is suffering from Locklear Overkill. She will always be Amanda Woodward the Superbitch to me.

OMG, the guy who plays Craig kills me with that wierd lisp and those glasses. Trudy's hair and makeup in the season finale..BWAH!!!!!

Yep...forgot that one, too. Gotta see the new season of the Fab Five.

Never saw one episode of The Practice, but I was a big Ally McBeal fan. So, I guess it is the goofy side of a Boston law office that appeals to me.

It looks like she's bitchy on this one, too. The line in the commercial she says to Denny cracked me up. something like "Why don't I bring you a pair of my pants and you can try to get in them on your own time"

Then you must see Keen Eddie on DVD somehow. Christy has been raving about it here and there for quite a long time, so I got the DVDs based on her alone and it's such a fab show. Valley is a riot. It's one of those shows that you watch and just are *asotnished* that it was canceled after only a few episodes and **** like Friends lasts for TEN YEARS.

I thought that they'd run out of ideas by season two, but they just keep getting better. I think the addition of a new character (Officer Kimball) this season helped a lot, too.

I love Ally! The last two seasons weren't very good, unfortunately, but the first few were fantastic. I wish they'd put it on DVD, that one that's out with only a few season one episodes doesn't do it justice. I want the episode where Elaine was sued over the Facebra.
