New season starts tonight, right? I really enjoy that show.

Scrubs isn't in the premire week line-up...shame on NBC. My all-time favorite medical show. ER a close second.

And House MD - eventhough I'm still not sure exactly what area "investigational medicine" falls under...and I don't understand how his (are they) fellows can do everything from a bronchoscopy to pathology, they operate, they run the CT scanner, they're lab techs, radiologists, actually, I can't think of a single hosptial role they *can't* do (and lets not mention the field "detective work"). But I just love Greg House!! He says what you'd love to say...but can't.

Then Grey's Anatomy...well...they have some major accuracy issues (the creator should have consulted more with actual housestaff. Just a few more conversations with someone who knows how surgical residency is done, would greatly improve the quality of the show)...but overall, I like the diverse cast, and the individual characters' personalities. The most bothersome thing is...these interns do way to much operating, and "saving" and not enough scut. And so forth and so on...

I also love Dr. G - Medical Examiner.

What shows are you guys excited about?

A Scrubs and Nip/Tuck fan here too! We've just got Grey's and House, but haven't watched. Used to love ER, but never the same when Benton and all the gang left. Do like the new crowd, but not as gripping as before. I love the devilish Nip/Tuck boys. Too saucy for words!! wink

We're a little behind in the UK though, though I did get to see the Nip?Tuck finale one week before the US.

Watched Nip/Tuck last night...and was very, very disappointed. frown

I'm not a fan of horror (at all), and that "carver" and his "work" caused me to look away...and fast forward (I have TiVo) thru many scenes.

Then, so much time has passed...I've forgotten much of the story-line from last season...so I'm feeling a bit lost. I don't like the new character devolpment...and I don't like how they've "dumbed down" the script - it's almost like their target audience now is young men. With the horror...sex...blood...

...very little medicine...lack of family life...instability of the characters, etc.

I hope the next episode is better...or I'll have to pick another favorite program... frown

I LOVE Nip Tuck!!! I have yet to see an episode this season, but I was hooked the last 2. I love ER as well. Kovach's girlfriend irritates the heck out of me though. Watched only 1 episode of Grey's Anatomy and I liked it, but Intervention is on at the same time and I love that show, along w/the Vh1 reality shows(Breaking Boniduce, Sureal Life, and My Fair Brady). Yes I admit that I'm a total dork :boggled: . Anyways. has anybody watched Intervention on A&E? It's pretty good. I know someone has watched Breaking Boniduece (however you spell it). Do you love/hate it? I love it. laugh

The second episode of nip/tuck was better. No carver stuff. Their son, with the bushy eyebrows and the 5 o'clock shadow, bugs me. I think the actor is like 30 trying to play a teen-ager.

They brought on a new ?Cuban partner...and I like him so far. Maybe his character will add some life into the program. Overall, I'm hopeful, but I think this program has "jumped the shark."

I watched 40 mins of NIP?TUCK with my DH and we both hated it. I guess we didn't understand anything? But it was a really weird episode I guess. It was too dark, I hated the decoration and everything was indoors :rolleyes:

Now watching Design to Sell on HGTV makes me happy! I love construction, remodeling, changing things....LOL!!!!

Enjoy the show! :yes:
