Whoohoo! Is it time for Bones and House, yet? We built the thread, they must come!

Procedurals 1: Anything You Say Can and Will Be Used Against You.
This thread is for procedural TV, shows where the primary idea is to figure out the case. [NAFDA]

11th?
So is there a list of shows for this thread, or are all procedurals fair game? I'm presently finishing off Season 3 of NUMB3RS and planning on watching lots of House some time soon. Love Bones to bit. Is Medium worth checking out too, then? How about The Ghost Whisperer?

Bones and House! Same night! At least until American Idle comes along and wrecks everything.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Numb3rs is the only thing I think I'm watching that will be in this thread. The SO watches more procedurals than I. Or did. But he likes the law shows; the Practice, even Boston Legal. Numb3rs is one of the few shows we really watch together, and never watch without each other.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Is Medium worth checking out too, then?
I like it. The structure of the show allows them to vary the approach to the mystery-of-the-week in some very interesting ways. I also like the level of importance that is given to the family dynamic.
I don't think it's on the schedule until midseason, though.

Ah, but your scheduling is gobbledeegook to me, my lovely - all my TV viewing is courtesy of DVDs purchased from the myriad pirate DVD stalls here in Bangkok. (I'm irritated to death that Season 3 of Doctor Who isn't on the stalls yet, but generally we get the US stuff pretty soon after it's ahemable.) I'm pretty sure I've seen both Medium and The Ghost Whisperer, among other things, and wondered whether to get them. I'll look into picking it up, then.

Season 3 of Doctor Who isn't out anywhere?
Well, it's coming out in early November here.

It boggles my mind that the dodgy DVD guys might be waiting for the actual kosher DVDs so they can rip those off, rather than aheming. (Although it's probably the US telly that they ahem, mostly - the Brit telly is more often than not kosher, now I come to think of it.)
'Course, I do much prefer my rip off DVDs that are based on the real ones, rather than ahemed. But...want! New! Who!

Er...returning you to your regularly-scheduled Precedurals Talk - my NUMB3RS DVDs are of the ahemmed variety. I'm enjoying Season 3 - and sad though I am that Peter McNicol had to take time off for his other commitments (as I love him mightily), I am personally convinced that he's gone to work in the Pegasus Galaxy, so I'm good with that. And I really like Charlie's new boss.

How much do you think his character would irritate McKay?
