Summer TV May Actually be Worthy of Watching

One thing that bothers me every summer is how I finally have time to watch TV and none of the shows I want to see are on.

One show that has caught my eye since it premiered three seasons ago is Entourage on HBO (which was conveniently on after The Sopranos on Sunday nights). That is the only show that captivates my attention during the summer.

If you haven't seen Entourage, and have HBO, you can go to the Guide and see every episode of it from this last season thus far.



Now that the summer is here, I realized that I need to have something else to get addicted to, so I did some homework.

Here are some shows which seem worthy of investing at least one episode:

- Heartland on TNT, Starts June 18th.
Treat Williams is no 'House' but this is a surgeon drama and surely has to have some redeeming factor.



- The Closer new season begins on June 18, on TNT




- The Starter Wife Re-premires on the USA Network Tomorrow.
Emmy winner Debra Messing, of Will & Grace fame, stars in the six- episode mini series, which follows the life of a divorcee who is making her way back into the dating world.




- Hidden Palms is on the CW, Wednesdays at 8pm.
Seems like a twisted version of "The OC." From the same creator of "Dawson’s Creek" and I Know What You Did Last Summer, this new show is a perfect combination of the two.



On the other hand, if none of these shows appeal to you there are a few more options.

1.) Go to Blockbuster and rent a season you didn’t get to catch last year - or buy them so you don't have to deal with late fees.
2.) Head over to NBC.com or FOX.com to catch this past seasons shows for FREE!

I started to watch Heroes when it premiered last season, but realized I had no time for it.
But now that summer is here, I can finally watch it without paying for it.
Just go to NBC.com and click on the show you want to see. You can start with episode 1 and go all the way to the season finale. This applies for numerous shows besides Heroes.



So the next time you have to watch some Full House reruns, remember to just go online and watch something new.
