    • The days are getting longer and outdoor activities are starting to cut into TV time.  There will be a few good shows running over the fairest season, but the real superstars will be cooling their heels with a lawn chair and a mojito until fall.

      While it is best to get out and enjoy the weather, summer doesn’t last forever.  Only a few months until the ‘08-’09 season kicks off.

      Here are some shows that will make summer’s end not seem so bad.

      1. The Shield’s 7th and final season.  This is one show that is going to go out on top.  The gritty goodness and plot twists have been able to sustain this unorthodox cop drama for six seasons.

      2 .  After Breaking Bad’s abbreviated season one run, I felt like Oliver Twist in the workhouse when he whined, “Please, Sir, can I have some more?”  Even though this dramedy is dark dark dark, I can’t get through an episode without thinking, “there’s nothing else like this on TV.”  If you want cutting edge, Breaking Bad is it.

      3.  Joss Whedon, sci-fi superstar, has created a new series called Dollhouse.  The strike has messed with the scheduling of this series, but it looks promising for next fall.  The premise, brainwashed hitwoman starts to become self aware, sounds killer.

      4.  One of NBC’s most interesting shows, Life, is getting another season.  This series stars Damien Lewis as a cop who may or may not be bent on revenge after being wrongfully imprisoned.  There is an added level of intrigue because viewers aren’t always quite sure what Lewis’ character, Detective Charlie Crews, is going to do or where he is coming from.

      5.  Scrubs is moving to ABC for its swan song.  This show has its little obnoxious idiosyncrasies, but it has grown on me and I’m glad JD and crew are getting a proper send-off.

      These are the best reasons to tune in this fall.

      Now go enjoy the weather.
