@lalaland: That’s such a great episode–the Grab That Dough episode. My favorite is at the end when pissed off Sophia refuses to make the little grabbing motion as the show goes off.

I’m almost embarrassed to admit this, but I’ve never watched Mad Men. I want to get the first season and start there, but I just haven’t had time yet. It’s on my to-do list, though.
Another great show that no one watches is Friday Night Lights. It almost jumped the shark last year in an attempt to pull in viewers, but it’s still good. The actors are spot-on playing real teenagers (no Dawson’s Creek bullshit here) and the writing is excellent. It’s the closest thing out there to My So-Called Life.

I would add “Pushing Daisies” to your list, but it’s been canceled.

I love Chuck too (I’m a recent convert at the beginning of this season) except haven’t really even bothered to see if others are watching cause I didn’t expect to find anyone. I think the Christmas episode is my favorite one to date, and pushed me from really liking the show to it now being one of my favorites.

I can never seem to embed NBC videos either. It’s quite aggravating.

There are so many shows I need to watch, it’s not even funny. I’ve only seen a couple episode of Mad Men, but need to rent the DVD. I find Christina Applegate adorable, so I should probably watch her show too.

So many shows, so little time. I did see the game show episode of Golden Girls the other night. “Better to be late than -” and Blanche buzzes in and says, “Pregnant!”
