Luckily they've been renewed.

I'd heard that, but it's still quite a wait. I'm gonna take a guess that they won't be leaving after all.

Anyone have any news on when we'll get season 2 of The Riches?

As for Damages, my comment around the house has been that if I had even the slightest idea what Damages is about, I'd be a little more interested, but somehow "Murky show about law and crime starring Glenn Close and Ted Danson," is really not grabbing me. It's sort of doing the opposite. It's pushing me away.

But you guys have made good-sounding noises about it, so maybe I'll check it out. If you guys like it for a couple mroe episodes. Maybe. (I never really kept up with Rescue Me, and that was a show I wanted to watch).

I am interested in Saving Grace, Scola's displeasure notwithstanding.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

Rescue Me, btw, has been great this season. I've really enjoyed it.

SA, can you believe that Tommy can't recognize depression when he sees it? And didn't they go to a counselor? Shouldn't the counselor have realized that something was up?

And Garrity! What an idiot -- why not just turn on the lights? Or use a flashlight?

Tommy, please don't give your baby, even if it's Johnny's, to Sheila. Damian turned out to be a sneaky little shit, and she's gotten crazier since. Although they don't seem to be able to write about parenting on that show anyway...

Eventually I hope that Tommy can look after Janet a little, even if it's in his fucked-up Gavin way

the counselor was too freaked by the Tommy/ Janet backstory. Well, first he thought it was counselor humor...

They should just name the kid after Johnny, get a dna test and be done with it.

Yeah, I know...they are belaboring that point too much. It has been good this season otherwise. Hard keeping up with all of Colleen's phases, though(Which, as her mother says, makes her very much a Gavin)

Oh - I caught Kill Point last night. Pretty good, which it would kind of have to be with those actors. Good action, plenty of tense moments. (I'm blocking out the speechifying in the middle.) But I'm not sure I see how they keep this going as a series.

I am intrigued by Kill Point because of its stars, but I too wonder how they can sustain that.
