Cathy G's TV Reviews

I would have easily given this show 5 stars last season but the show is suffering from the loss of the original writers. It was always one of the most clever shows with the quirkiness of the charcters made them even more endearing. Now it is a snoozer. I won't give up on it but I am wary. Hope they step it up.

I did not watch last season but caught up over the summer and could not wait for the new season - unfortunately it was way too short. It was worth the wait and i would imagine showtime is reairing all of them. Uncle Andy is by far one of the funniest characters on TV today. He takes mooch to a whole new level.

This show is definitely underrated. Not sure it's because most of the CBS comedies are pretty lame (Two and a Half Men) but the premise of the show is clever and the character of Barney is source of consistent laughs.

I started watching Scrubs a few years back, but then it shifted to a few different time slots and I did not have the dual Tivo at the time (totally worth it!) I got back into it a few months back since it is in syndication and well....my friends are sick of hearing me say how funny it is.

I will go out on a limb and say that it is one of the best sitcoms in the last decade. How can you not laugh at the relationship between Turk and JD. Then there is Dr. Cox, the Janitor and Elliot. I cannot wait until it comes back next week - only problem now is that it has shifted once again but now it is brutal. It is up against Grey's and CSI - what is a girl to do?

I totally agree with the previous review here. The show does not succumb to the usual pitfalls of other crime dramas. I love the relationship between Olivia and Elliot, which is why I am so glad she is back. I had a tough time with Connie Nielson who was Elliot's temporary partner - she was always doing something that warranted her to be fired.

While i was drawn to the concept of the show and the pilot, I was a bit skeptical that they would be able to make the premise work each week. I was wrong because I am hooked. The only frustration I have is that each time I feel like i got clarity on one piece of the puzzle they just throw another one out at you. All of the characters are interesting - I find Egan Foote to be hysterical.

Yes, Goren is quirky and the head tilt can get old, but I still get amazed at time how he can get into someone's head. I like that the show has now added a second team to add a bit diversity - and it is always nice to see Det. Logan back at the NYPD. You never know when his temper will get the best of him, which is what makes watching him that much more enjoyable. Does anyone know what happened to his original partner played by Annabelle Sciorra??

I was contemplating 3 vs 4 stars. The show definitely has its weak parts - Rachel Griffiths being one of them. But Sally Field is one of the more compelling parts of the show. My problem is that it all seems very disjointed. They don't really allow the characters to unfold before they are off on another arc. I will probably stick with it for the time being b/c i am thin on Sunday night programming.

I think I am about done with the show. I really liked it last season but I am almost bored by it. In its very short existence (it was midseason replacement last season) the show has already hit on a lot of the typical hooks that make sweeps so enticing: man falling in love with best friend's girlfriend,

The last few episodes may not have been the best, but House still is one of the best characters on TV. Love his relationship with Wilson and flirtations with Cudahy.
