Finally a show on TV that I make sure i never miss. I havn”t felt this way about a TV show since Charlene and Scott got married on Neighbours…. LOL. I loved season 1 and seaosn 2 is just as good, maybe without a few twists or just that we are ready for them now. I still find it hard to belive that more people are not aware of this show, Spread the word people.

Best cop show in existence? Someone skipped The Shield…

Life’s overarching storyline and the main character are pretty good, but pretty much everything else about the show is sub par, especially the horrible crimes-of-the-week.

Don’t give up on Psych Neon Kitten! It’s one of the best shows to come out of the US in a long while. If you can, buy the DVD’s and watch it from the beginning. This is too good a show to pass up.

I understand why you’re having difficulty though. It’s a real pain when a show is absent for so long.

I really hope I can pick back up on the vibe of this one after so long and such a brutal interruption.

I recorded the return episode of “Psych” on Wednesday night, because I was watching and enjoying it back when it was first on – but 15 minutes into this week’s episode I found I just couldn’t get into it any more. It seemed, with a now complete disconnection from the characters and backstory, just plain stupid. I hit “delete” and moved on.

“Life” was great. I hope that wasn’t just my imagination

I taped all of the episodes of this when it first debuted on ten. I haven’t actually gotten around to watching them yet though. I wish they’d repeat the first episode because it got taped over.

I get the problems with fast tracking but last year was a bad one with the writers strike but more and more viewers are tech savvy and will go and find the missing eps by other means, I’ve done similar with several other shows that have vanished from our screens.

I know they need marketing to support the shows and it’s hard to bring them back for 1-2 or 3 eps only but maybe it’s time they did that in some cases like they did with House or they’ll loose even more viewers as people distrust the networks and whether they get to watch the seasons in full, in good time!

Life is the best cop show in existence. I strongly recommend all people who enjoy watching television to give this series a chance. You haven’t missed anything – its very easy to get into, and in 3 episodes time the season finale where Charlie confronts the people who murdered his friend and set him up is simply immensely awesome television. New season begins Sep 29 in the US, after Heroes. I’ll be looking forward to it

Gee, everyone jump on the “Evil TV Network” bandwagon!
David’s point should not even have to have needed explaining!

My biggest bug-bear is the networks bringing back season 2, but it’s been so long since season 1 that I can’t remember half of it. At least this way the seasons will flow into one another.

Can’t wait for Charlie Crews and his apple eating crime fighting style!

No doubt the plan here is to run these three eps into the new series (though that isn’t confirmed as yet). TEN got caught out with a handful of excess eps when the Aussie ratings season ended and the writer’s strike hit -just as Seven did with Heroes.

The interview here with Tim Worner was intended to illuminate some of the pitfalls that came with the first fast-track season.

Wow, only 9 1/2 months later. You’re getting better channel 10.

Sorry ten – too little, too late. Downloaded these (great) shows after you decided you didnt want to air them. I’ll also be downloading season 2, so dont bother buying & putting them up in 2010 / whenever you see fit to air it.

I liked this show but yet again a local network would rather show countless re-runs of House and NCIS that show something new!

Will ch10 go on with S2?
