Ring Out The Old - The Best Television of 2004
Posted by S_Wiebe on 2004/12/31 23:22:38
In what has been one of the most interesting year’s of television, ever, more new scripted series supplanted the old reliables in both quality and ratings. ABC struck gold with ‘Desperate Housewives’ and ‘Lost’, UPN finally got a series with ‘Buffy-like’ buzz in ‘Veronica Mars’, and even FOX managed to eke out a timeslot for a quality series, ‘House, M.D.’ in a schedule otherwise overbalanced in the reality direction. Here then are best of 2004 [and a few suggestions for US programmers looking for more of the good stuff…]
Honorable Mention [in alphabetical order]: [Note: SGA was one of five mentioned...)
Stargate: Atlantis – though ‘Stargate: SG-1’ is still quite entertaining, ‘Atlantis’, with its one-way trip, cool new villains and civilian commander, has done something few spin-offs ever achieve: it is both the same as, and entirely different from its parent show. The writing seems more alive than recent ‘SG-1’ efforts, probably because there’s a new group of characters to explore. Technically, the series is as adroit as ‘SG-1’, and the cast seems to be really enjoying themselves.
********
Ouch...And Stargate SG-1 isn't on the top ten list.
