Watched the first two episodes. Somewhat amusing. A basic cop show that tries to be funny while only succeeding sometimes. I'll give it another couple episodes to see where it goes.

It's a decent show. I'm glad Perrineau got a chance to do something other than be that asshole guy on Lost.

I like it. Sure, the dispatch voiceover needs to go. But it's nice to see a show that balances procedural drama with not taking itself too seriously. The second episode was a huge jump in quality over the pilot, and tonight's episode was pretty solid as well.

Just two so far. I think Pro and Mamma (Pro Mamma) are smoking dope together tonight and getting their fact mixed up.

All of them, apparently.

I watch exactly three shows on ABC - Better Off Ted, The Unusuals, and Castle. Nice to know that ABC is hot to chase me away from network TV. Hopefully, some other network will pick these shows up, as they're worth saving.

I voluntarily watch two ABC shows: Ted and Lost. I sometimes watch Greys' Anatomy because my wife makes me (and even she's starting to get sick of Greys'). So after this year I'll probably be watching exactly one ABC show and, after next year, zero.

Which makes FOX my one stop for network TV. At least, until they give up on Lie To Me and Fringe.

I like the Office and 30 Rock on NBC and How I Met Your Mother on CBS. But, yeah, the bulk of network shows I watch are on Fox at this point.

And, if you think NBC is bad now, wait until they lose five hours of primetime per week to the new Leno show.

ABC seems to have a knack lately for developing groundbreaking shows and then canceling them. I'm surprised 'Pushing Daisies' was given more than one season.

I don't really sit down to watch much network TV at all anymore. I like little of what they've got. I'll catch 'Chuck' every once in a while. 'Better Off Ted' was funny. Mostly, I stick to cable. Usually the History Channel or something like that.

That was actually just an accident of the writers' strike. They didn't have any new shows in the pipeline and it was easier to just renew the ones that had started right before the strike. A fair number of "marginally" rated shows got renewals for that reason.

I just watched the first season of that show and loved it, which means it will get canceled.
