Television, drug of a nation...

So, we watch lot of TV - I like to think that most of it is pretty good, too. Of course, some of it is also crazy...Here's a recent sampling:
Being Human - The original, British version. They had me worried last season - things dragged on boringly, and the characters sort of milled around looking for themselves, until the end of the season presented them with an actual dilemna they could solve. This season, though, has been awesome. Dropping Mitchell, George, Nina & Annie back into conflict & harassment from the outside world works so much better than "hey, I can work in a pub, now". So, if you gave up during season 2, go back - it's worth it.
Smallville - Yes, I know everyone else is up on Season 10, waiting for the big finale. I'm still wading through season 6, and enjoying it. Even if Oliver Queen is just a Lex clone with a bow at this point - where's the radical socialist of the comics, hmmm? I am looking forward to more super heros making an appearance, though.
Big Love - Just one more episode to go, and the crazy will be over. I used to think this show was good, but now it's just nuts. I'm sticking with it just to see how it ends.
