Between DVD, Hulu, DVR, and OnDemand, I almost never watch anything when it originally airs.

Been watching Pawn Stars when it's on, the stuff that gets brought into their shop is pretty cool.

Chumlee cracks me up.  And despite how stilted the scripting is, I dig the glimpses you get of those guys' actual thinking, etc.  They aren't dummies.

First 48 continues to blow my mind.  I caught an episode of it last night in which two dudes going to sell a gun ended up in a shootout with the prospective buyer, who pulled his own gun and tried to rob them.  One of the buddies died at the scene.  Cops bring surviving buddy in, he tells them the story, gives them his gun and bullets, cooperates fully, etc.  Cops get the shooter, who tells them the surviving buddy was shooting back at him as he ran, not even looking where he shot.  Turns out the dead guy took a bullet from his buddy.  The look on his face when the cops told him he had killed his friend was something to see.  What's more, he then goes back to the dead guy's family, with whom he's staying, to tell them that he had shot his friend (their son/brother) dead.  Heavy shtein, best thing on teevee.

Expert: I'd say it's worth $15,000
Pawn Stars: So how much do you want for it?
Customer: Well you heard the guy, he says it's worth $15,000
Pawn Stars: See here's the thing, you might be able to get that at an auction or retail store, but we're a pawn shop...so we'll give you $3000

I'm still enjoying Chuck.  I'm guessing it dies this year, but I'll enjoy it until it does.

Other than that, it's all baseball (and now hockey playoffs) all the time.

MDS

not a whole lot of color in that story, is there?

Coming down the home stretch for Lost.  They've been on a pretty impressive run of solid episodes right now.  5 more left.
