    Weirdly enough, every one of tonight's wannabe photos looks better than any photo of any of those pretty-but-average giantesses who "cycled" through Tyra Land before.... The most interesting women are the most trouble, of course.

    I wish I hated this cheeseball show as much as I used to. But damn, if it ain't a hoot and a half.

    To love the series, it helps to be exactly Spike TV's target market - a young guy who, when he can't be out drinking beer and throwing up with his friends, loves nothing more than to sit in front of a giant-screen TV doing all of the above.

    Lucas the PI (Michael Weston) is such a good addition, I really hope he stays....For my money, Lucas' chemistry with House is better than Wilson's--and it's definitely not as weirdly closeted.

    What the series gains this season by giving us more history and more compelling storylines, it loses by repeating some of its, er, epic mistakes. Again, no battle scenes - some of the most important in all of history - are shown.

    Riveting as ever, Battlestar Galactica proves again that sci fi doesn't have to be clap trap.

    So, two quantum physi cists walk into a bar and one says to the other, "It's 10 p.m. Do you know what time it is?" If you love that joke, or if you even understand that joke, have I got a fifth season for you.

    Tonight, through the miracle of modern medicine, the show comes roaring back with a plot that includes the, er, trauma of Seattle Grace Hospital being downgraded from the number two facility in the state to the number 12.

    Davis... is very good.
    • Metascore: 65
    • Linda Stasi 75
    The acting here is first rate -- not a bad apple in the whole rotten bunch.
    • Metascore: 77

    Bad taste meets good writing.

    Maybe it's not as great as "Lost," but then again, it could be awfully close.
    • Metascore: 81
    • Linda Stasi 75
    Not that the show will be everyone's English cup of tea, but there are enough "A" list Hollywood stars (making fun of themselves) each week to bring in even the most easily offended, but curious, viewers.

    A flat-out good show.
    • Metascore: 63

    [A] very witty, sometimes brilliantly insightful hybrid sitcom.
    • Metascore: 48
    • Linda Stasi 75
    Like "Sex and the City" with its clothes on.

    This one should break the "Seinfeld" curse. It smells like a winner and only gets funnier each week.
    • Metascore: 69
    • Linda Stasi 75
    It's heartwarming, it's sweet, and it's just the ticket if you, too, happen to be a 10-year-old girl or the parents of one.

    • Linda Stasi 75
    Not like anything else on TV.

    Great fun, good personalities and some fine food. All in all, the start to another good season(ing).
    • Metascore: 79
    • Linda Stasi 75
    Somehow the formula still works.
    • Metascore: 51

    Once "Brothers & Sisters" gets started, it works, and it works well.

    Diggs is a very good actor. Attempting to pull off a complicated scenario like this would be tough for a vet, let alone someone who made his bones in musical theater.

    If I hadn't seen the same thing done 56,000 times before - from both versions of "Oceans 11" to my all-time-favorite, "Snatch" - I would be all over this show like a groupie. But I did, so I'm not.

    Every character is dead on - no exaggerations, no caricatures.
    • Metascore: 68
    • Linda Stasi 75
    All in all, it's a good show. The problem, however, is the retreaded storyline.
    • Metascore: 57
    • Linda Stasi 75
    While this all sounds fresh, don't think for a minute you're going to be seeing anything that hasn't been re-packaged before.
    • Metascore: 75
    • Linda Stasi 75
    Don't believe the hype. "Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip" is not the best new show of the fall season. It's a pretty darned good one, but not the best one.
    • Metascore: 67
    • Linda Stasi 75
    OK, so I admit it, the premiere isn't all that funny, but the second episode is hilarious.
    • Metascore: 75
    • Linda Stasi 75
    Problem is that Episode 1 is so out there and over-wrought that you might not make the trip back for Episode 2. That would be a mistake. Week two is when it gets riveting.
