I still have a ton to catch up on my Tivo but I realized last night the majority of the shows in my NP list are season finales. The last thing I want is to open my NP and bring up a blank screen. Please don't make me watch <gasp!> live TV.

I will probably set up some SP's to record some reruns of shows that I haven't had time for lately. Like South Park and Simpsons.

So what's the latest news for new summer shows and what would you recommend I check out during the dog days of summer?

Yeah I would definately grab:

Amazing Race
NIP/TUCK


Best Reality show & one of the best "Dramas" <drama is a crappy word for shows like this> on T.V.

Edit: Doesn't Six Feet Under start up in June on HBO??

I use the summer re-runs to catch shows I chose not to watch first time round. This is how I got hooked on shows such as CSI. I also use the summer to start recording the more educational shows such as Nova and Nature on PBS, and the myriad of shows on TLC and Discovery Channel.

Amazing Race for sure...and if you're like me, and never had HBO, Sex and the City starts up soon on TBS.

Granted, it doesn't have the language and nudity that was on HBO, but I heard it's going to still be pretty funny. I saw a few episodes on HBO whenever I got the chance, and the show was great.

Coupling, on BBC America and some PBS stations.

I also love PBS's NOVA, especially for those days when I'm puttering around the house cleaning or doing laundry. I like listening to science shows much more than having music on in the background.

Also, BBC America is great during the summer.

Monk / Amazing Race are two of the best. (for those who watch.. how about Monk ON the Amazing Race? That would be a great show!)

I've also picked up Oblivious on SPIKE a few times as a Tivo suggestion. Pretty funny if you're looking for a diversion.

Don't forget about the new FX show about firefighters, it's supposed to start after Nip/Tuck is over.
