Currently I'm following 24 (obviously), The Shield, Supernatural, Damages, Battlestar Galactica and Lost.<BR/><BR/>BSG is amazing in the way it gives away major plot points during the first act of an episode that other shows would leave until the finale. What constantly impresses me though with the show is the way that it dables in the genres of other shows and actually surpases them in their execution. The episodes where Gaius was on trial was as exciting as any of the court-cases in Law & Order. And the recent episodes with the mutiny was pure 24 gold.<BR/><BR/>However my favourite show at the moment is Lost. I stopped following for two seasons but found it fairly easy to tune back in again for Season 4 as nothing had actually happened -- they were still on the island. Each episode is now baffling and revealing in equal measures but what they've done that is really clever is how they've made their fragmented episode structure now actually part of the plot. <BR/><BR/>Now only House, Prison Break and Fringe to return and there goes all my free time.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
