What have you been watching this week (w/e 22 May)?

22 May 2009 Rob Buckley TMINE 5 Comments

It’s fast approaching that time of year when TV gets really bad (ie “Summertime”) but just in case there’s been some good stuff (or bad stuff) on tele that everyone should be watching/not watching, leave a little note below to help your fellow TV watchers sort the chaff from the wheat.

This week, apart from numerous season finales I’ve already cast an eye over, I gave CSI: NY a try after three years (or something) since the last episode. For some reason, it ended up being set in Thessaloníki (or should I say ‘Thessaloníki’), rather than New York. Wasn’t desperately impressed by it, but hey ho, it’s always nice to see Louis Mandylor getting work.

Otherwise, it was The Daily Show and The Apprentice: surprised to see Ben go – I thought lippy Debs was for the chop this week after the rocking horse fiasco.

As always, no spoilers unless you’re going to use the <spoiler> </spoiler> tags, please? Ta!
