TV: What I am watching... PART 2

WEDNESDAY NIGHTS
Lost (ABC) Season 3 - Well I guess I won't really be watching this until next year but the island left us with a suitable enough cliffhanger. As Jack holds Ben hostage on the operating table to secure the release of Kate and Sawyer, but unbeknownest to him that they are all stranded on a seperate isle.

Bones (FOX) Season 2 - Although not a show on the same level as Lost, Heroes, Veronica Mars and Desperate Housewives what this show succeeds in is the enjoyment of watching it's characters interact. The writing is always top notch, it'll never blow you away but also you'll never be disappointed.

Jericho (CBS) NEW SHOW - Along with Heroes here is another show providing a hugh concept serialised drama as the population of a small mid-west are isolated in the midst or a possible nuclear war.
It's good to see Skeet Ulrich getting work and he is a more than capable lead in a story that has plenty of ongoing mystery and drama.

Medium (NBC) Season 3 - Returning just last night after a extended hiatus to allow the broadcast of other new, but generally alot worse, shows. It was a typically strong episode and a great premiere. I liked the way it was giving more screen time to the other supporting characters giving them more depth.

The Nine (ABC) NEW SHOW - The hostages from a botched bank robbery find that they lives are forever changed as they have to deal with what happened to them. A clever use of revealing flashbacks, a little piece of the ordeal is revealed at a time as a driving force for events in each episode. I just think ABC maybe asking too much of their audience by putting right after Lost, as both shows require alot of attention and emmotion. I hope this show can stick around.

NOTE: I would have also been watching Day Break on ABC but my DVR screwed up and never recorded it.
