Get on it

Quick update on shows you probably should be watching

Yes it took me a while to get it too. But then it just took off and I fell in love. The paintball episode is fantastic. Dooda doesn't like it, but then he didn't like 30 Rock, so take that with a pinch of salt. Season two has been hilarious so far.

Misfits
British, funny, violent, crude, clever, different. Season two is on at the moment, so it's worth getting in to. There is a fair bit of swearing, a bit of violence and the occasional sexy time. So you can take those as positives or negatives depending.

Parks and Recreation
Season one (6 episodes) was so-so. Season two (24 epsiodes) kicked it up a notch to begin with and got better and better. From the creators of the US Office, it is funny, sharp and has a surprising amount of heart. Amy Poehler is great as Leslie, the deputy director of the Pawnee Parks Department. Aziz Anzari is awesome as Tom Haverford. But the real star is Nick Offerman as Department Director Ron Swanson. He hates local government as a concept. It's great.

Glee
It is up and down and can be very heavy handed. But the singing is a lot of fun.

Friday Night Lights
Seriously, if you've heard about the best show on television and haven't been watching it, I feel sorry for you. But I also feel very happy for you. Because it means that one day you will get to watch it and experience joy (maybe for the first time?). The final season, season five, showing now.
