Las Vegas to LAX

I watched a new TV show tonight, LAX. It got a bad review from a local critic, but I really liked it. The stories were fresh and interesting. The music was great. The visuals were fascinating, and Heather Locklear is easy on the eyes. What clinches it for me is that it wasn't predictable. I like a show that can surprise, that doesn't use the same tired formula you've seen a dozen times before.

LAX follows Las Vegas, which is the opposite. It's easy on the eyes, but the plots are kind of cheesy and pretty predictable. It's like an hour-long commercial for Las Vegas. But it's got Nikki Cox. :sigh:

They aren't West Wing, or Babylon 5, but after a hard day's work, it's nice to watch something mindless with the wife. And, sadly, Babylon 5 is gone, and so is West Wing. Sure, West Wing still has new episodes, but they aren't penned by Aaron Sorkin and it shows. Next year should be the last.
