The writers are back!

It's so great to have the writers back on my favorite shows! Seeing commercial after commercial advertising upcoming new episodes is as exciting as watching TV in the summer just waiting on those season opener teasers. And they haven't disappointed, either.

Two of my favorites, Smallville and CSI: Miami, have come out of the chute with two weeks of great episodes. CSI has been so good that I've actually foregone my usual Horatio jokes. And Smallville, well, being a proudly professed Smallville geek I can only say they did a great job jumping back into the story and seem to be winding up to an finale that will make Summer torturous.

Now, if Journeyman and Chuck can get back on track I'll be a happy little couch tater. I'm not really a BIG television watcher. Smallville is usually my "appointment television" but these two new shows both have something that really entertains me. I've really been drawn in by the premise of Journeyman. It's almost like a new version of Quantum Leap (for those old enough to remember that show). And Chuck is just a goofy show that I'm pretty sure only appeals to that small group of geeky guys like me and our sons who inherited our sense of humor, much to our wives' annoyance.

So, thank you, great wielders of the pen (or keyboard). Write on as we sit, eagerly, on the edge of our sofas and recliners awaiting your next bounty of dramatic/comedic artistry.
