One can only hope they're kidding

My wife & I have been watching Grey's Anatomy from the beginning, although it's never been my favorite show. I tend to find most of the women insufferable - especially the lead trio - and consider the men to be the show's redeeming quality. The show sunk to new lows recently when it started trotting out the Denny-returns-as-a-ghost garbage, a blatant attempt to revisit a long-buried romance from two seasons ago! When is enough enough? The man died and, regardless of how cool a character he may or may not have been - I'm in the latter camp - his run ended, meaning the show - and his fans - need to let it go. Drift off into the fantastical one too many times and you run the risk of producing a modern day Ally McBeal, inspired one minute and forgotten the next.

Gut-check time...

Sometimes, a television show comes out of nowhere and surprises you. I admit that I've been a fan of Prison Break from the start, including its increasingly implausible plot twists, and I'm happy to say that my faith was recently rewarded. Watching William Fichtner's Mahone calming pushing hired gun Wyatt - who had previously murdered Mahone's young son - into the water with a cinder block cuffed to his arms was brilliant. Totally warranted, totally worth it, and not even a semblance of a copout from a show I have at times worried about... Kudos, Mahone, and kudos to you as well, Prison Break!
