No more shows.

After House tonight, all of my favorite shows are over for this season (except my favorite cooking competition shows like Hell's Kitchen and Top Chef, both beginning the first week of June). Lost, 24, The Office, Heroes, House, American Idol, Grey's Anatomy... yeah, it looks like I have no life but that's where Tivo comes in to help me schedule things better so I can actually live a little. It's hard keeping up with so many shows, though. Sometimes, I really just have to turn new ones down because I can't fit anymore in. Or I try to keep a balance, like when I dropped Desperate Housewives to pick up Grey's Anatomy. TV on DVD makes things much easier because I know eventually I'll catch up on everything (if I really want to, that is).

Lost had been getting on my nerves for a while but the last few episodes (with Desmond especially) had given me some hope. Then, the season finale finally came and it was so good that I was back to my old ways of freeze framing to try to read a newspaper clipping, searching the internet for better quality images of the newspaper clipping and driving myself nuts again.

Grey's also had a great finale which I just watched last night (along with the last few episodes). Almost every character on this show has been my favorite at one time and my least favorite at another time. I have never been able to stand that McDreamy though, I'm still not sure why ladies go wild over him - it's Ronald from Can't Buy Me Love! Guess he did go from "totally geek to totally chic". I'll be damned.

And it sucks that there's no more Office for now. This is the one I'll miss the most.

So, come on Hell's Kitchen and Top Chef, please don't suck. Top Chef won't be the same without Marcel in it this season (STILL can't believe he didn't win). If they had call in votes like American Idol, I might have actually been on the phone dialing up Marcel over and over and over again.

I'll always have my old standby - all 7 seasons of Seinfeld on dvd. I think 8 is due out any day now, so I'll have "new" ones again. If there was a way to get rich by answering Seinfeld trivia questions, I wouldn't have to worry about how I'd pay my mortgage anymore. I'd own a mansion outright.

On a side note, Judge Judy is still awesome.
