Seems like there might actually be something worth watching in a couple of weeks. BSG and Heroes are back to finish off the end of their current seasons, while 24 and Lost finally return with new seasons.
BSG and Lost are still on their same steady course, with early reviews saying the first episodes of the new seasons aren't likely to disappoint. 24 and Heroes though have had shake-ups, and will be taking new approaches due to past criticism and staff changes. Heroes has ditched comic book fan arch enemy Jeph Loeb and brought back old school Heroes writer Bryan Fuller, while 24 has hired legendary Star Trek Voyager and Enterprise showrunner Brannon Braga. Not sure that's a step in the right direction, but change is good.

K, added.
Has Fringe started being good yet? I heard that the first few episodes were apparently crap.

Kind of. Some episodes are pretty interesting. The story development however took too long. It's a lot like taking a US history class. They talk THIIIIIIIIS MUCH *stretches arms out* about this little. *brings arms back in* It shouldn't have taken an entire season to explain so little. Plus I thought it was gonna be cooler like, a lot more sci-fi and world domination wise. I hear Season 2 aims to please though.

Don't know if anybody else watches it, but any news on Merlin? I must admit, for a low budget series that rapes the legend, it kind of grew on me, like a tumor. Now I am kind of waiting for the next season.

Season two of Merlin is supposed to start filming this year, so I'm guessing it'll be aired around Autumn.

Holy fucking shit, Battlestar's coming back today :o
And apparently it's not a filler ep.
