2009-2010 TV Roundup

Okay, okay-- I'm a little late.  But it's been tough getting the needed time to post this properly.

Like in years past, I'm going to list the TV series I watched from about June 2009 to June 2010.  Why list them?  To give you an idea of what I watch (and what's worth watching) as well as giving a backdoor explanation why something's not on the Top Ten list (like Lost; I didn't put it in the top because I haven't watched it yet.

After that, over the next few days, I'll list my favorites from this past year.  They're not always the best, but they usually gave me the most pleasure and excitement.  They're definitely ones to check out when the new seasons start-- or something worth checking out on DVD.  I'll admit, I wrote up most of the Top Ten list during my lunches at work in April and May, so they may be a little rough. I apologize for that-- but if I tweak them much more, I'll never be able to post it in anything resembling a timely fashion.
