Last column of the year, which means it's Top 10 time. As discussed last week, I decided to spread the wealth with two lists, one for returning shows, one for 2006 rookies. The lists:
Returning Shows
- "The Wire"
- "The Shield"
- "The Office"
- "Battlestar Galactica"
- "Deadwood"
- "The Sopranos"
- "How I Met Your Mother"
- "The O.C." (season four only)
- "24"
- A tie between "Scrubs," "House" and "Grey's Anatomy"
New shows
- "Friday Night Lights"
- "Dexter"
- Stephen Colbert at the White House correspondents dinner
- "30 Rock"
- A tie between "Country Boys" and "When the Levees Broke"
- "Doctor Who"
- "Heroes"
- "Kidnapped"
- "Broken Trail"
- "The Loop"
