Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

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]

Previews are fair game, right? Everyone knows why House is bouncing ideas off the janitor?

Art Crawl!!!

Woo hoo!

I only wish we had a place to discuss FNL. I'm totally gorging on the dvds. Ah well.

But - WAT! Bones! Various L&Os!! Mystery - you know -- on PBS which is network not cable, right?

I don't watch House but my guess is he hasn't hired any new assistants yet.

I only wish we had a place to discuss FNL.

Me, too. And GA. But, who knows. Maybe someone will propose something or the other.

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

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.
