No one's watching Terminator, the Dollhouse problems persist, and too many of my favorite shows are on hiatus until next year. Grrr! Argh! Still, I love TV, and now's the time to look on the bright side and give thanks for all the good stuff I've watched this season.
This year, I'm thankful for:
Battlestar Galactica – This last season has been challenging but thrilling to watch. Actually, that about sums up the entire run of the series. I'm confident that the final eps will be as good as what came before.
Netfilx Watch Instantly for Mac – I'm catching up with Doctor Who, Dead Like Me, and revisiting old eps of Joy Mohr's Action. I've never been so happy to be a beta tester.
The second season of Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles – It was on the bubble last season, but it managed to squeak through. Season two has been even better than the first. I just hope we get some sort of satisfying conclusion before Fox eventually pulls the plug.
The fourth season of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia – I was happy to find out that the Sunny gets weirder and weirder with every season. Season four is the funniest yet.
The eighth season of Smallville – Somehow, it doesn't suck. I believe in Superman again!
I'm also thankful for the return of 30 Rock, The Office, The Daily Show's election coverage, and the final goofy season of Stargate Atlantis.

Is TVSquad practicing censorship now? I'm not the only reader to notice my post being deleted...

Ed, Mike deleted your comment by mistake. Though in it, you were talking about the fifth season of Smallville, while he was talking about the eighth. Not sure where you got the fifth season reference from.

I'm with you on this season's terminator. Although I can't believe Ellison turned lam-o. He was the best character.

sarah connor officially sucks, in my opinion. I rather conclusively decided not to waste any more time on that lame, teen romance drama, story. rip. That show had potential. It went in too many directions.
