Brock,
It's OK, I'd say one of the better new shows but not great! I've seen a few episodes and while I enjoyed it, I don't feel compelled to watch it. The best new shows this year imo are:
Dexter
Heroes
Justice
Dexter is the best, on pay TV though (Showtime), if you want to watch Heroes and Dexter, all episodes are here:

Timm,
No, they just did what Fox always does to new shows, they moved it to another night...Friday at 8pm! Usually a bad slot so I don't know if it will survive but it is a good show...Fox has three outstanding shows right now: House, Bones and Justice with Standoff gaining ground. Prison Break, while not a favorite of mine, is also highly thought of.

LOL...never got into that one either!
I do honestly think that this is the golden age of TV as the shows have gotten a lot better in the past 10-15 years. I've watched some of the older shows that I use to think were so great and frankly the writing as well as the acting is better today! I'll always have a place in my heart for the likes of The Honeymooners, Columbo, Kojak, Bonanza and the like but they simply aren't as good as more recent shows imo!

Sorry Somer,

Justice was cancelled. They moved it to Friday nights to run out the episodes they had. Sucks because it was a great show.

I like Ugly Betty. I think it is more of a chick show, but some guys I know like it (no and they aren't gay). I think it is just kind of different, but I love it.

It is a toss up to me as to which show Ugly Betty or Men In Trees is my favorite new show this season.

Heros is good too. But those two are my top two.

Amazing! Well, knowing Fox...not so much I guess! Any network that would cancel Firefly would cancel anything! I finally saw Heroes (thanks to the net) and it's very good yet the characters are so so (I like the cheerleader). Ugly Betty is good but again, Dexter is by far the best imo!
