What Really Matters

As the comments on the Bar thread are starting to reflect, the best part about being done is going back to summer TV. In my experience there are two types of summer TV viewers: those who watch the reality crap that the networks put on (e.g. shows where The Hoff is a judge!!!) and those who latch on to the high quality cable shows that begin their season when the network season ends (Rescue Me, Entourage, Dexter, etc.). Regardless of which camp you fall under, summer programming is definitely not as boring as it once was. But it does require a lot of scouting time. So, to ease the bar takers into their TV viewing habits, let this be an open thread to share thoughts on shows that people have scoped out for the summer.

Relatedly, I'm happy to see that HBO leads the networks by a wide margin in showing gay characters. Personally, I think the article makes a glaring oversight by not mentioning Omar from The Wire, who strikes me as one of the best protagonists in TV in general, let alone among the few gay characters.
