Your top TV picks for 2006-2007 season...

Alright, let's start this up again this year. What are you going to watch (Tivo); what are you going to drop (or think you might soon if it keeps up); what are your potential new shows? Reality shows don't count since they don't go a full season.

Watch:
Prison Break
24
Veronica Mars
Scrubs
How I Met Your Mother
Eureka
Psych
Edit: Forgot Battlestar Galactica and Desperate Housewives (though if DH doesn't get significantly better than last season, it's going on the drop list).

Drop:
Grey's Anatomy
ER
CSI (all 3 of them...though I may catch NY once in awhile)

This is about the skimpiest lineup of shows for TV that I've had in many many years. And I'm happy about it. Less TV. Get out more. <---My new philosophy.

Actually probably not... both the CW and the creator have been talking about how they are making this year more userfriendly because they really need the ratings...
