Summer Television

Since a few other people have been jumping in on which summer shows they’ll be watching, I thought I’d add to the mix. For me, summer TV, like any other TV season really, is more about what I enjoy than what might be critically acclaimed. However, I’m even less critical of my summer fare. I don’t ask for a lot in my television shows. Bromances, attractive people, fun adventures, and snappy banter basically covers it. Summer TV delivers better than most. I may try to do the occasional recap or check-in to shows this summer but if I don’t, here’s the list of what I will be watching.

Technically I will be testing the waters with SYTYCD. Some years I adore the show, others I pop in for the videos. I’m hoping this year is a love it.

Men at Work: May 24th-TBS

Danny Masterson has not been on my TV enough lately and neither has Michael Cassidy. Plus I’m a sucker for TBS sitcoms since I think they have a knack for finding shows about a group of friends who can be funny. TBS comedies usually aren’t punchline after punchline but not every show needs to be. My Boys for example remains one of my all time favorite comedies.

Hatfields & McCoys: May 28th-History Channel

While I doubt I will watch this one live, I do plan on viewing it at some point over the summer. Between my love of rivalries & love of history, this is right up my alley.

Leverage

Leverage just wrapped up S4 this Sunday and I had to quickly comment on it. I know several of my friends are working their way through the series so I will try not to be too spoilery. I absolutely recommend Leverage as it is one of my favorite series.

I’m in love with Parker and Elliott though Hardison is still a favorite. Elliott just fits my whole obsession with guys who are rough around the edges. And Parker is the best.

I’ve always been sort of okay with Nate Ford. I don’t hate him, but sometimes I wish the show would give more time to the other members of the cast instead of focusing so much on Nate’s issues. This season did better with that than most.

Then there’s Sophie. I’ve sort of hated Sophie’s character for the longest time but this season I finally started liking her. Which is good, seeing as she’s a rather vital part of the team.

The finale was fun in that it brought other past stars back (something I think the show could do more often without messing with the dynamic) though I definitely enjoyed the Boys Night & Girls Night Out jobs better as far as guest stars went. Sean Faris as a kickass black ops soldier? Yes, please.
