TV Watchin'

I'm not much into most TV shows these days. My usual disdain for reality TV is still present (with a few exceptions). Even the raved about shows, like "The Big Bang Theory," I often catch in repeats more than the new episodes. However, there are a few shows I find myself making time for:

• "Being Human" on the SyFy Channel. I stopped watching it mid-second season, but caught up and am watching the third season now. Things are getting creepier now with the goings-on between a vampire, werewolf, and ghost roommates. I've never watched the UK version, but I like the North American version. I think the actors are cuter anyway.
  
  
• "Bunheads" on ABC Family. This show cracks me up. It's by the same creator of the "Gilmore Girls," and has many of the same stars as the odd town folks. It's the story of a Vegas showgirl and Broadway-dancer hopeful who spontaneously marries an admirer and meets his mother, a retired dancer herself (Kelly Bishop AKA Emily Gilmore). The son dies in a car accident and leaves the dance studio and property to his new wife who now is a partner with her mother-in-law. The machine gun banter is still there along with the quirkiness I enjoyed with the Gilmores.
  
  
• "Elementary" on CBS. I really do enjoy this updated Sherlock Holmes and I think Lucy Liu as former surgeon Dr. Jane Watson is an interesting twist. The chemistry between them is pretty fun to watch, and I find the mysteries pretty inventive.
  
  "Snapped" on Oxygen. Women who kill, essentially. I think there is a still an odd fascination that women can't be murderers. And strangely, most of the women end up killing off a husband or lover that I think is pretty cute. Not sure what that's about.
  
  
• "RuPaul's Drag Race" on Logo. Do I really need to explain this one??
  
  
• "Futurama" on Comedy Central. I can never get enough of this show. I saw the "Neutopia" episode last night, which is a favorite. I even got a pic of the scene that makes me laugh the most behind the cut. It might be slightly non-work-safe.

A gender-changed Professor Farnsworth posing for a girly calendar. I laugh at it every time I see it.


So what do you watch? What should I be watching? I hear the hype, but personal opinions are much better.
