Well, I last posted on this thread over three years ago (is Methuselah hiding around in here or something? 
)!
So, how have things changed for me since then?
Let's see,
Best:
NCIS -- this has replaced er and CSI on my schedule. They built some great chemistry with the crew, but I was shocked by Kate's death. Now I have to be sure to watch the season opener to find out what the hell's going on! 
West Wing -- This is my favorite show on television.
Law & Order and L&O: CI -- Both shows are still top-notch. I'm not sure about Borja at this point (just don't like her style) on L&O, but I love the fact that Dennis Farina is on the show. Looking forward to Fontana and Green building a good chemistry between them.
CI is going to a different format, with Chris Noth returning as Mike Logan to split lead duties with Vincent D'Onofrio (apparently, Logan and his partner will be doing half the shows, and Goran and Reems {sp?} will do the other half). I'm looking forward to it.
Crossing Jordan -- I've been a Jill Hennessey fan since her L&O days, so I was sure to catch her new vehicle from Day 1. I'm a little tired of them messing with Jordan and Woody's relationship (it seems that most shows just don't want to build a regular relationship between the main characters...they just haveto screw with them too much), but I otherwise love the show. It certainly makes Sunday nights pretty regular.
Of course, I wonder what NBC's going to do with the Sunday lineup in the Fall of 2006, when they get their Sunday night NFL game.
MXC -- Yeah, it's sophomoric most of the time. But, it's hilarious, too. They just need to put out more "new" episodes (of course, I guess that all depends on how much usable Takeshi's Castle footage is left 
).
(Of course, all of the above takes a back seat to my sports -- major league baseball, college and NFL football, hockey {yeah, it still exists, apparently 
}, rugby and, occasionally, lacross and cricket.)
Worst:
Still anything Reality -- 'Nuff said.
Still modern sitcoms -- My sitcom watching has decreased to 'nil since 2002, especially since "Whos Line..." is now only in reruns (which is still watch regularly on ABC Family).
