The Top Ten Television Shows of 2008

Curious about my choices for the best television shows of the year? Of course you are! I wrote up my top-ten for the New York Observer website, and here's a sampling:

#6: Chuck
Forget Jim and Pam already; the best geek-love relationship on television is happening between Chuck Bartowski and Sarah Walker. In addition to being painfully romantic and charmingly funny (more "ha-ha" than "lol"), Chuck is treasure trove of 80s nostalgia. Where else on television can you find witty references to Back to the Future, Spies Like Us, The Karate Kid and Die Hard?

They Are Golden Gods: Predicting the Golden Globe Winners

Ahh, the wacky Golden Globes. How I've missed you! Last year we were all deprived of their meaningless ridiculousness when the WGA Strike napalmed Hollywood for a few months. And while there wasn't a big difference between seeing Billy Bush call out the winner's instead of a drunk Hollywood star, it just didn't feel the same. Thankfully, there is nothing in the way of the awards show this year; the winners get announced on January 11th.

While you mark the days off on the calendar until the show arrives, here are some early predictions!
