Five things about tv, since it all seems to be about fives right now... ;)

[graculus]

Entourage airs at 10pm on ITV2 from Sunday 10th September. And I'm loving season 3 at the moment, and giving serious thought to buying the dvd boxsets - maybe we'll get R2 now it's showing over here? Also, see my icon for the E/Vince love, though I'm also a big Ari fan because... well, he's Ari, that's enough.

Artsworld are showing season 2 of Slings and Arrows at the moment, with no ad breaks. Again with the season 3 love - just when I think it can't get any better, we get Geoffrey and Oliver in therapy. ;)

How much do I love BBC4 and their themed shows? I guess the BBC have more than enough things stashed away that they can run any theme they like and have lots of programmes that would fit. Last time around it was Rome, this time it's spies and so we're getting Cambridge Spies again, with Samuel West all buttoned up, Toby Stephens (soon to be playing Mr Rochester) angsting for Britain and the delectable Tom Hollander (who fits blktauna's usual criteria for men, being small and squirly, so maybe she should keep an eye out...) stealing the show from underneath them.

How is it that there's just not that many new shows airing this year that I want to watch? I like the look of Jericho and will probably give Studio 60 a try, but the rest? Meh. Convince me, please, that I'm overlooking something?

Of course, in terms of returning shows, we have Boston Legal, House (omg, I have seen the season 3 trailer!), Numb3rs and Veronica Mars to look forward to. And Battlestar Galactica eventually, too.

I still haven't watched Veronica Mars, I should rent the first season and try it ;-)

I've tried Eureka and I'm not thrilled with it but Hubby seems to like it. I've also tried Vanished but again I'm not thrilled will give it a couple of more views before deciding.

I'll be trying Studio 60, hopefully it will be good.

This year it's Boston Legal, House (and where did you get the trailer? I keep hearing about it but haven't found it yet), Numb3rs, Supernatural, Bones and NCIS. Which really is more then enough ;-)

Eureka is okay, if a bit formulaic.

There's a couple of versions of the House season trailer over on Youtube but this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=puVV3BtM1Tw) is the longest one...

Thank you :-)

And I was watching it going 'oh god, oh god, oh god, is it September yet?'. ;)

There is a dearth of new shows that look even remotely promising this year.

Which makes me very glad that my old shows haven't been canned, because I am usually the kiss of death if I like something...

the delectable Tom Hollander
