On the Box

Must-See TV — 3/15/05

Radio Free Roscoe — Yeah, when I found out there were 10 more new episodes of this instead of two, I got way more exicted than is reasonable. So is life. Deal.

Degrassi: The Next Generation — It's way too over the top and definitely ruled by the "too be continued" mechanism. Again, so is life.

The O.C. — The craziness of the last few weeks has finally mellowed. It's still eminently watchable.

House — It gets better every week. I've decided I'd like to be House, minus the massive amounts of medical school in between me and the PhD.

NUMB3RS — They've been slacking on new episodes, but it keeps me entertained when they come. David Krumholz was Finch's fellow Jewish guy in Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle.

American Idol — Okay. I definitely haven't been paying attention, but whenever I watch the SHF (Smokin' Hot Farmgirl - Carrie Underwood) is still on. As long as she's there, I've got hope.

Point Pleasant — Two weeks between episodes and me being busy means no PP has been viewed. This gets a DNP-CD.

My So-Called Life — It's down to two episode slots. If I don't watch one by the next update, it's off.

Scrubs — Amusing. A good half hour diversion.

Family Guy — Still not owned by everyone's favorite Couch. Why do I feel like this is becoming a cultural touchstone?

Wonder Showzen — An inspired half-hour of absolute randomness. Voiceover: Where do babies come from? 8-year-old Girl (deadpans): Carelessness.

Drawn Together — A cartoon reality show? Why didn't anyone come up with this idea sooner? All I know is that Princess Clara quickly joined the pantheon of smokin' hot animated females.

Robot Chicken — Probably the most bizarre 15-minute show I've ever seen. "Seacrest, out!" takes on a whole new meaning when a claymation Ryan Seacrest is wearing a dress.

NBA All-Star Saturday Night — I haven't watched it again, but I'm sure it holds up. Josh Smith's windmill tomahawk off two feet was naaaasty.
