Like what? Setting Lost aside, since that was in a category of its own, what excellent shows are there?
Network TV has been to much into cutting costs, leaving us with the likes of Dancing With The Stars, American Idol, Big Brother and a host of other "reality" shows that tell no story at all. NBC put Leno on at 10 in part because his show was cheap to make compared with an ER, Hill Street Blues or Homicide. 24 is coming to an end. Heroes ended up being rudderless and fizzled. Flash Forward was a good concept but didn't catch on. What shows are you talking about?
