Survivor, Terminator, Jericho and Veronica Mars

I have been using some of my Spring Break to catch up on some of the shows I haven't been able to watch while school is going on. The only shows I ever made time for every week was Prison Break (now over) and Lost. Here's my quick rundown...

Survivor - Amazing. Wow. Anyone that needs to watch a show to led into Lost on Thursdays this could be a good place to start. I usually watch the Enhanced Version of Lost too, but this season just keeps on getting better and better. The Amazing Race usually recieves all the hype for reality competitions nowadays, but Survivor Season 16 is getting really strong. (10.0 and 9.8 last two episodes)

Terminator - Another show that just ended. I actually couldn't take my eyes off the final three episodes of the season. Anyone who had any interest in the movies should certainly check into the series. The beginning was great, the middle dragged a couple of episodes, but the ending of season one really confirms (to me) that there should be a season two. (9.8, 9.2, 9.4 last three episodes)

Jericho - Season Two has been a mixed bag for me. I knew going in that personal relationships and character devolopment were going to be let go for the moment in favor of heavy plot advancement, but it just seems to drag the plot too much for me. Nothing this season has stood out as a solid 42 minutes of television, just a lot of "Above Average" television. My ratings for the season have been 8.8, 8.6, 8.7, and 9.1 in that order. The 9.7 tv.com rating for the most recent episode didn't fit for me. I like the show, but I think its walking on some hot coals now.

Veronica Mars - 15 episodes in I hit a roadblock because of school. I like the storytelling in the show - with each episode having a little "joke/funny" case for Veronica to tackle and then a piece to the overall puzzle of solving the season long mystery of who killed Lilly Kane. The personal relationsips between the characters have died off a little bit in the last two episodes I have watched (Betty and Veronica and Kane and Abel) but the season long mystery is getting mroe and more air time as the season goes on. The final two episodes of the season and major high on tv.coms rating list and both break into the top 15 of PabloExobar, a friend of mine here who doesn't give just any episode a high rating. =)
