Since we're now in 2013...

I have Hell's Kitchen sitting on my DVR waiting to be watched along with the Bachelor finale. I'm currently watching a bunch of shows like Restaurant Stakeout, Hotel Impossible, Car Lot Rescue, etc. Turns out my boss's boss loves reality TV as much as I do (he got me into Bar Rescue, actually) and even had a 'meeting' about the Bachelor finale Wednesday!

I'm excited that Psych and Army Wives are back - waiting for the weekend to watch those.

Anything you guys are watching?

The Following! So good!

I have Hell's Kitchen DVR'ed as well but my TV's interactive guide told me it was only one hour, not two, and by the time I realized, it was 20 minutes into the second hour, so I'm missing a chunk of it.

I watched the first episode of Golden Boy but don't think I'll continue with that one.

I love Top Chef but by the time I saw a commercial for the Seattle season, it was more than halfway through, so I didn't start watching. Top Chef Canada starts next week (I think) and will watch that.

And the new season of Survivor smile

Oh I forgot I also started watching a new sitcom Seed (not sure how long that one will last...) and a new Canadian show, Motive.

I watch a lot of TV...

I guess I am the reverse. Since doing my weight loss, I doubt I watch more than 2 hours a week anymore. I barely even know what shows are on during prime time.

I never know when shows are on - my DVR does!

I watched Top Chef Seattle. It was so-so and the highlight was seeing people from previous seasons adding to the cast. But nothing that made it 'must see' TV, in my opinion.

I watch a lot of TV.... But it's only a few reality shows and the rest I watch on Netflix, so I'm really out of date on tv shows. wink

I watch Law and Order SVU, the only original out of the original series still going strong in it's 14th season, despite the departure of Christopher Meloni as Detective Stabler. I've found it to have the best written stories that came out of the mind of the Dick Wolfe, the show's creator.
I am also a huge fan of 'Supernatural, now in it's 6th season. Two new shows that have caught my attention are 'Grimm', now in it's second season, and seems to be getting better, and the aforementioned 'Motive', a show with a bit of a twist, in which the killer and the victim are named in the first sequence of events, and we are left to figure out why, along with the lead detective. So far, so good.
One other show that i like too, is called 'Murdoch Mysteries', a canadian period piece, set in Toronto around 1900 well written and surprisingly engaging.

I've started tuning in to Murdoch Mysteries a bit too. My dad loves it, and I got him the first book in the series that spawned that show for Christmas, then read it after him so started watching the show a bit too. It does get engaging, but it's a bit comical seeing Murdoch race around town on his bicycle!

I absolutely love The Following. Every week there's a new twist, a new character, a new mystery... and the hour goes by so quickly. I hope it stays around for at least a second season. *crosses fingers*

I was hooked on Zero Hour until ABC yanked it after the 3rd episode. I did read online ABC will most likely air the rest of the show during the summer... if not I will be crushed. I thought it was very steampunk, very modern but also deals with the past and gives you a nice history lesson. I love how they incorperated Einstein into the storyline.

I watch Grimm & Once Upon A Time as well. I am a huge fan of both.

I look forward to Hannibal on April 4th, as well as Under The Dome on June 24th. I read the book, and even though the characters have changed a bit, I am still going to give it a try. It might be a nice surpise. smile

I have some cable shows on DVD (Dexter, The Walking Dead, Haven, Alphas, Hell On Wheels) and will buy the next current season when available. I don't have cable and I am usually on the treadmill when these shows are on. It gives me something to look forward to. smile
