Five shows you should be watching.

Here is my list of 5 shows you should be (but probably aren't) watching.

1. Battlestar Galactica - The top Sci-Fi series since Babylon 5 and Deep Space Nine were on air. New season starts Oct 7!

2. Veronica Mars - Very well done. Joss Whedon's favorite show!

3. Flavor of Love - Ok - you really shouldn't be watching this, but it sure is a good guilty pleasure.

4. Crocodile Hunter - I'm gonna miss Steve Irwin

5. Space Ghost Coast to Coast - The precursor to Adult Swim on Cartoon Network. The writers had to be quite witty to be funny. An example exchange:

Space Ghost: Yeah right. Adam, love is the universal language, and seeing as I'm not from your universe, I need your help. Will my relationship with Merrill suffer because of our differing gravitational backgrounds?

Adam Carolla: No, uh, although I don't believe your refractory period is quite as long in the absence of gravity.

Space Ghost: Refractory period...

Adam Carolla: I believe even superheroes have refractory periods, don't they?

Space Ghost: Mm. (flies off to control room)

(in control room, Moltar watches a computer generated program of himself and Space Ghost on his monitor)

Moltar: (laughing at program)

Space Ghost: What's a refractory period?

Moltar: (perturbed) I'll show ya later.

(In the studio)

Space Ghost: (bounds back to desk) Maybe you should explain what you're talking about to some of our less sophisticated viewers.
