I agree. Other than House there are very few shows I watch anymore. Although Chris and I enjoy watching Adam Carolla's Car Show and the Dumbest Stuff on Wheels. And I've discovered 1000 Ways to Die heh. It appeals to my morbid curiosity :)

Because producers don't know when to pull the plug or when to leave well enough alone.

I'm looking forward to 'Once Upon A Time' and 'The New Girl'.

Agreed, most shows go on way too long.

I have to agree with you here...

I watched my favorite show just deteriorate into hack writing and childish nonsense.

It makes one sad.

I totally hear you on that deterioration issue. Case in point: "Heroes." First season was surprisingly good, and subsequent seasons declined after that, mostly because the writing teams didn't do a good job of communicating with each other, as well as (and mind you, this is mostly conjecture) because the head writers took their cues from fan-wanking instead of actually developing the characters.

Writing for TV is hard stuff, though. I envy the ones that get to work with big teams, so they can share the burden of meeting script deadlines. I do not envy the lone writers who have to crank out scripts nearly every day for longer than a week and then take all the flak if the show bombs.

At least there's still the repeats of "South Park." And whatever's interesting on Hulu.

South park cracks me up. Cartman is such a little asshat. I love the epies where he gets his karma back.
