I know I've been bad about writing about Cougar Town since it returned from hiatus, but I've had a lot going on outside of the blog. I decided to not write about the show until after the finale with more general thoughts. My thoughts on the terrific season finale of Cougar Town are after the jump.

Season Finale: Modern Family-"The One that Got Away"

After watching the very funny season finale of Modern Family, I'm in a similar mindset as when I stopped writing about the show back in April. I love the show and it has very funny episodes, but there's not enough there for me to review it each week. 

I loved the finale a lot. It was on the higher tier of Modern Family episodes this season. Both the comedy and the emotional moments clicked. There was a sweetness behind it that worked very well and made for an enjoyable half hour of television.

But that's all I really have to say. The show works for me on a very simple level and I enjoy it more if I don't think critically about it.

So, what did you guys think of the finale?

Announcement: Summer 2011 Plan

I can't believe that I'm even typing this: The 2010-2011 broadcast season is almost over. (*) What that means is the broadcast networks hide in their reality TV holes and the cable networks bring out their big guns and take over the scripted game. I was just looking at the summer TV schedule and I put together a list of shows that I will be covering this summer. You can find that after the jump.

Lost-"The End": One Year Later

I wish I had time to put together a full post about my feelings on the Lost finale after having a year to think about it.

Personally, I loved the finale. Sure, it didn't answer all of my questions or explain every little detail, but I didn't expect it to do that. For me, it was a fully satisfying 2.5 hour telecast that kept me engaged the entire way. I still tear up every time that the final music cue turns up in my iTunes, when I think about the passing of the baton from Jack to Hurley, when I remember Sawyer and Juliet's kiss in the sideways, when I remember Jack and Smokey's final battle, when I remember the scene with everyone in the church, or the final image of Jack closing his eye.

Whenever I think of those moments I remember this show as one that took me on a roller coaster ride that had me hooked from the first turn. When it finally pulled into the station, I had no hard feelings, only thoughts of what a great ride it was.

Now, it's your turn. Has your view of the Lost finale changed over the course of the year? What moments remain your favorites?

"The Big Bang Theory"-Season in Review

(This post is the first in a series in which I write generally about shows that I don't usually cover.)

I don't write about the Big Bang Theory on a weekly basis because it's generally a show that I don't have a deep reaction to while I watch it. It's perfectly funny, but it doesn't give me a lot to say about it every week. Now that the season is over, I do have some general thoughts, which are after the jump.

Announcement: Old TV Watch Project-Summer 2011 Shows

It's time for me to announce the three shows that I will be covering weekly during this summer. In case you don't know, the TV summer technically starts on May 26th, after May sweeps. Because I will be covering fewer shows as they air during the summer (I'll have a schedule for those shows within the next week and a half) I decided to expand the Old TV Watch Project beyond one day a week. The three shows that I will be covering this summer are...
