Summer Reflections
I agree -- these were the best TV had to offer this summer.
In fact, they were good TV -- regardless. I would also add Damages and recurrent fave Rescue Me on FX. Nikki's wrong though that Burn Notice would make for a good replacement on broadcast networks. We now live in a niche entertainment world. "Burn" and Mad Men work well in a cable environment, but there's not enough of a lowest common-denominator element for them to survive in the ratings obsessed cultural wasteland of the "real" TV season.
If you missed any of these shows, pick 'em up on DVD when you can. Highly recommended.
