Ok, so I setup my blog and didn't really know what to write about. I spent the last few months reading a ton of blogs and will really give this a crack again. Not sure what I will write about, maybe the best television shows of the year? Maybe raising money for a startup? Or the right time to sell your start-up? Or how to hire great people? Travel horror stories? That's probably going to be next.
I guess for a start, an easy one, the best tv shows of the season. Like most busy people, who really has time to watch television? We're all busy with lives and you want to make sure that, if you do take time to watch television, it is really enjoyable. More than any other reason, this is why all the CSIs have such great ratings. People don't have to watch week after week . Law & Order is the same, I've gone years without watching that show and you can pick it up anytime you want.
The only truly enjoyable shows on television are Nip/Tuck, The Shield and South Park. They are all great in different ways but all have very interesting characters and are pretty unique. Lots of people are offended by the subject matter of each of these shows and I can understand that, but they are all very well written and the characters don't really show up anywhere else. Arrested Development was one of the best shows on television but it was canceled, too few fans. I understand that, it was very intelligent and you really had to watch it every week. How can a television show that needs to attract very very smart viewers week after week really survive? House is also great but you get the feeling they are really trying too hard. I'd be surprised if it is still any good by next year - really what's left for them to do?
For this season, the only interesting now show is Justice but I hear that is going to be canceled. Oh well.
