2008 Television Season
What writer’s strike? 2008 is somehow gearing up to be a great year for TV. The Wire, a new season of Lost, experiments like In Treatment. Hey, writers, go on strike more often, you a-holes!
The Best Buzz

Real World: Brooklyn
TV Buzz MTV's original reality TV show comes to the outer boroughs. New Yorkers wonder: Will it land in Williamsburg? Some people seem bothered, but then most of the hipsters in Williamsburg already star in a reality show in their heads, so things wouldn't really change that much.

America’s Next Top Model, Cycle 10
TV Buzz One of the biggest guilty pleasures ever to air on TV returns. Cycle 10 - the CW's awkward parlance for the 10th series of the show - starts on Wednesday night. Start placing your (legal! hypothetical!) bets on which sharp-tongued, high-cheeked lass will come out on top.

The Return Of TV
TV Buzz With the writer's strike almost over, your favorite shows will be returning to the air. Here's a round-up of guides to which shows will be back and when. Few things are settled and dates are fluid, so check back often.

Save Friday Night Lights
TV Buzz The NBC TV show was never a ratings hit, but is the third most TIVO'd show on television. Because of the strike, seven of the 22 episodes NBC ordered for season two weren’t made, and fans are left wondering if they will ever see the light of day. We were slow to catch on to Friday Night Lights because we assumed it was just a long, drawn-out series version of Varsity Blues or something. But after watching a couple of episodes, we were hooked on this high school drama. And the Explosions in the Sky soundtrack is pretty awesome.

In Treatment
TV Buzz A new HBO series starring Gabriel Byrne as a psychoanalyst. HBO is taking their shrink motif (The Sopranos, Tell Me You Love Me) to the logical extreme: A show about an analyst, running five days a week, including an episode about his session with his analyst. Just typing that makes us want to lie down on a couch somewhere.

Caprica
TV Buzz A Battlestar Galactica spinoff is rumored to be in development. If Caprica doesn't happen, expect someone to get royally frakked up. We nerds don't take this stuff lightly.

J.J. Abrams’ Fringe
TV Buzz The uber-producer is already at work on his next project. No, not that fringe. Abrams' new series sounds very X-Files, teaming a female FBI agent with a mad scientist. The pilot is reportedly shooting for $10 million - maybe the 2008 television season won't be a total loss?
-
Summer Glau
TV Buzz The actress gets to show off her mad fighting skillz in the new "Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles." Firefly (and Serenity) fans will remember her as River. Now she gets to play an un-killable fighting machine sent from the future who will fight other robots and also learn to navigate the catty hallways of high school.

Lost Season 4
TV Buzz The eight episodes of Lost completed before the writers' strike will begin airing January 31. This and a new season of The Wire can almost make up for the months of Colbert Report reruns.
