God and Goddess willing the writers’ strike can be over and new seasons, new shows, and new episodes will bring back the joy |
Pretty pitiful state of affairs when one would rather go outside and shovel like Sisyphus rather than put up with the ersatz crap taking over while the writers fight for their much deserved compensation and rights.
But somewhat promising is the winter TV lineup, complete with spinoffs, spoofs, and series specials.NOTE: Actually, this list is incomplete, being one comprised of most of my favorites [or favorites-to-poke-fun-at]. For a more unbiased schedule, see The Futon Critic.
