The Big Bang Theory – A lot of nerds don’t like this show, thinking it always goes for the easy jokes about them and their nerd culture.  I disagree.  Consistently one of the funniest shows on TV.

The move from Mondays has worked out for CBS.  There was a slight blip when Kaley Cuoco missed a few episodes after falling off a horse, but it seems to be back to firing on all cylindars.

My Generation – This will be cancelled by the end of October. Didn’t even make it the end of September.

Wow.  I had managed to completely forget about this.

Bones – The gang is brought back together to fight crime.  Again, the relationships between the characters trumps the case of the week.

Continues to be enjoyable. Continue reading →
