CSI
Watching the first few episodes made me say, "When I grow up, I wanna be a forensics specialist!" Unfortunately, it's too late for me now, being a college graduate and all, so I choose to live vicariously through Gil Grissom and his fellow crime scene investigators. Science geeks have never looked sexier.
How I Met Your Mother
This Carter Bays and Craig Thomas creation is sheer genius from the storyline to editing, all the elements come together to create a show that reflects real life. Loosely based Bays and Thomas's personal lives, the show is a refreshing sitcom that a lot of yuppies can relate to. Ted, Robin, Barney, Marshall and Lily are household guests I enjoy having around every once in a while.
The Office
Michael Scott is the kind of boss I'd either want to have (because work will be a breeze, in fact, I might not have to work at all!) or dread to work for (because you'll find yourself doing the silliest things like running a marathon for rabies or making imaginary phone calls to avoid him). Either way, I'd take that cubicle at the corner just to be around the goof.
Pushing Daisies
Whimsical and romantic best describe Pushing Daisies. Who would ever think that a story about a pie maker and his formerly dead childhood sweetheart would make great tv? Bryan Fuller obviously thought so and I agree 100%!
House
Dr. Gregory House has the kind of brutal honesty we all wish we could have. Except he diagnoses patients with the all the deadliest diseases known and unknown to man kind; with that in his job description shouldn't he break the news to them gently? Gregory House doesn't think so and that's what makes him my kind of guy!
From watching these shows, the only kind of idiot you'll turn into is the one that gets drawn to the lives of the characters and forgets that it's all fiction.
