Burn Notice rocks! There's not a character on that show I don't like, though Fiona holds my attention the most.

Psyche is one I've yet to check out, though from everything I've heard, it's damn good.

Flash Gordon? No interest what so ever. Hated the original, the comic strip, the movie re-make, ... I don't care how many times they try to update it, I just find it boring and lame.

People love a happy ending. So every episode, I will explain once again that I don't like people. And then Mal will shoot someone. Someone we like. And their puppy. - Joss

I adore Burn Notice - my parents and I have only missed one episode thus far. Though it makes me sad that Fi looks anorexic... if anybody ever saw Scent of a Woman, she was the girl that the old guy tangos with, and she looked amazing - not bony.

Burn notice rocks the shit!!... Macgyver+ an Elmore Leonard novel = Burn notice ... Every week during the intro we get to hear Bruce Campbell say "Spys are such whiny little bitches", Awesome.

Psych is hilarious, its one of the few shows that me and my wife acctually watch together. its one of those warm fuzzy shows.

Flash Gordon is a pig of a disaster of a television program. I got into an argument with Coop at a poker shindig last week. he says its fun camp with a serial thrill, I say that I see what they were TRYING to do but it flops.. the best thing about it is the Queen title song, and even thats 25 years old... Oink.

P.S. we played the game ZOMBIES!!! at that shindig...its terrific, run out and get it.

Just discovered Burn Notice myself. Fills my Veronica Mars void. It's my fav new show. In fact, I just stay on USA all the time: Burn Notice, Psych, and Monk. Never watched Psych before, but the last few episodes have gotten me hooked. And I've been a Monk fan from the start.

I couldn't sit through a whole episode of Flash yet. They need dialogue and plot and characters....

Hey, don't knock the movie. It's some of the best camp sci-fi out there and I'd rather watch that than the 3 new SW's films. At least the kind of camp on the Flash Gordon movie can be enjoyed, as opposed to the stiff (taking ourselves too seriously) camp of SW 1-3. Don't mean to sound nasty, just have to defend one of my favorite 80's sci-fi films. I have to remember to ask for the DVD for Xmas.

AMEN to all that! Still being dependent solely on broadcast TV (and in my neck of the woods that means about 3.5 stations, and none of them USA or SciFi), I have not had the pleasure/displeasure of seeing any of the shows in question (maybe between now and Christmas I can remedy that), but I'm totally down with the early 80s big-screen Flash Gordon. I didn't appreciate it fully when it came out because at the time I still expected sci-fi/superheroes to be treated with some gravity, but over the years it has become one of my personal all-time faves...and IMO Dale (Melody Anderson, now a social worker - funny old world, idn't it?) was HOT. And SWs 1-3 were...NOT.

Edit: Ooh - Topol (Tevye / Hans Zarkov)...I almost forgot Topol...he was HOT, too...

...just call me WASHnParis...God, that's disturbing...

Burn Notice is GREAT, one of my fav's on tv at the moment.

Painkiller Jane is just..meh. Not worth the time IMO. I was DVR'ing them, then noticed at one point I had 4 episodes saved and hadn't watched the show past Episode 3.

Flash Gordon had one of the worst pilot episodes I've seen in quite some time, but the second episode was a little better. I'll give it another week or two.

Until Jericho and BSG start their new seasons, it's pretty much Burn Notice and various Discovery Channel things for me. Robin Hood on BBC is ok, every episode is hit or miss.

Yep, burn notice is great. well written and good characters. Fortunately somebody told me to DVR the first one and since then I've seen them all. It has been renewed for a second season.
Psych is a good one too though I catch it when I can.
Flash Gordon...I prefer not to say anything that can be held against me in court!!! but the words "crap" and "not fit to be used as TP" come to mind
