Wednesday's a pretty light day. I gave up on Bionic Woman ("We own your body!" "No you don't!" "Do this for us!" "Fine!"), and I don't really count Lost as a Wednesday show right now. That'll be featured in TV: Midseason Edition. Well, if it still shows up this year thanks to The Strike. Let's hope.
Pushing Daisies (8PM ABC)
Paul's right. This is a great show about a man given the power over life and death. But who was it given by? "No one in particular," the narrator tells us in the pilot, and atheists such as myself don huge smiles. I'm a big fan of atheists on television, and we need more of them. It turns out that atheists are the least trusted people in America. There's no group people would like their kids to marry less than atheists. The average American parents would rather their daughter end up with a homosexual than with me or Paul. Me, I can understand; I'm a douchebag. But Paul? Have you no heart?
Criminal Minds (9PM CBS)
And here's one where Paul and I disagree. I think this is a great show about figuring out how complete psychopaths think. It's the closest thing television has to Silence of the Lambs, each and every week. This season isn't as good as past ones, though, thanks to the abrupt departure of Mandy Patinkin. He quit Office Space style, meaning he just... didn't show up to work one day. Apparently, he did that before, on Chicago Hope. How he continued to get work after that, I have no idea, but now that he's proven it's a pattern? This guy's done. Him and Isaiah Washington. Wait, Isaiah Washington DID get another job? And it was on Bionic Woman? Well then, looks like we've come full circle.
