TV Viewing

So is it just me???  Or has there been a lot of cool TV shows in the last few years.

Now I grew up watching LOTS of TV... too much probably if you ask anyone.  Because of this, I consider myself a bit of an expert.  I know about 5-7 years ago, I pretty much NEVER watched TV because everything was total shit.  Shows like The Real World, Real Housewives of blah blah County, and Jersey Shore... basically everything reality based was all that was on TV and I HATED it !!.

I mean seriously?  There was a show called "Temptation Island"  Here is an excerpt from Wikipedia.

"Temptation Island is an American reality television program broadcast on Fox in which several couples agreed to live with a group of singles of the opposite sex, in order to test the strength of their relationships.

The show was controversial from the get-go, something that Fox hoped would drive ratings. With the four male contestants living in one section with a dozen female models, and the four female contestants living in another section with a dozen attractive men,"

So they touted this as a "reality" show.  Lets take couples who ALREADY have trust and other issues and put them on opposite sides of an island with a bunch of sexy members of the opposite sex and have those sexy singles hit on and try and get the half of the couple to fuck them... never mind the fact that if they ran into these people on the street, they  wouldn't even give them the time of day.... ya, THAT'S reality.

Anyway... that being said... in the last couple years there have been some AWESOME TV shows put on the air.  Some that have been from totally original thinking, and some that have been adaptations from already existing media like books or comics. 

Shows like Game of Thrones, True Blood and Dexter are based on books.  Then there are shows like Arrow, Gotham, The Flash that are based on comic books.  Then you have some shows from completley original minds.  Shows like CSI: Cyber and Forever which are pretty cool.

So going along with that, I was looking at YouTube and found the trailers for some AWESOME looking shows coming up this season.  Not sure if they will be as awesome once they are, but I will certainly give them a shot.  Check out the trailers.
