Mike and Molly should be on next month. Believe I saw that a while back. You're right some of this new stuff is really stupid. We often go to channels like TBS for beginning BBT shows and few others. not a whole lot out there. I often go to You Tube and watch a lot of the quilt and sewing videos and some others. More often than not I hit the sewing room and make amess

There is going to be a new Vet show who lives in Alaska. I think it is on Animal Planet. I have never understood British movies or TV shows dealing with India during the Victorian years. Looking forward to Downton Abbey.

i rarely watch the major networks anymore. even the 'news' shows have too many commercials, spend too much time telling us what is coming up, and do not go into depth. the comedy shows are too much like that cheese commercial... immature humor.

Not to much good stuff on. we are now watching old games shows.
Regular tv is getting to be the pits.

I think Mike and Molly will be returning, not sure of date. Odd that the show is returning so much later than most of the other shows.

I have not managed to watch a full episode of (new) Castle yet. I do usually watch the older episodes which I enjoy.

I have watched the few new episodes of Bones.

As for the alphabet networks' programming, it's all about demographics / specifically, age.

I would be described as "early-mid-century vintage"... not much that appeals to me in the current TV line-up. I generally enjoy DIY (but, most of those programs degenrate into infomercials for big-box home improvement stores or on-line furniture stores), HGTV has deteriorated into one continuous "looking for a new place to live" series of shows. When I can find them, I enjoy Salvage Dawgs, Building Alaska, and Barnwood Builders -- all of which are DYI shows, but they do include added content about background, techniques, and history. Oh, add Rehab Addict to the list. And, when all else fails, my husband and I will endure a San Francisco 49'ers football game. Whew! What a lousy team they've become. Never been a Raiders fan, but at least they have QB who knows where to throw the ball or is creative enough to modify the play based on the opponent's defense. Did enjoy watching the Seattle / Raiders game on TV yesterday.

All I can really say, is I'm delighted we have a DVR, enabling us to search and find programs we like, to record.

I think Outlander will be back in the fall sometime. I am looking forward to that one!!!! I love the books and the show both. My DD and I got to meet the author, Diana Gabaldon, last December along with Graham McTavish, who plays Dougal McKenzie in the show. They are wonderful people!!!
