That's a talented trio heading to the next realm. <BR/><BR/>The most shocking is Mac considering he was 50 years old and was looking to slow down work in the next few years because he was so into his family. Very sad.<BR/><BR/>That Monday lineup is downright depressing. Even when you're not talking about Reality TV, I have zero interest in shows like "The Middleman", "The Closer" and "Weeds". Yuck. Oh well, that's why some genius in California invented Netflix.<BR/><BR/>The long dead series I've been catching up on the last week or so is Denis Leary's pre "Rescue Me" attempt, the funny "The Job", which aired for one shortened season on ABC in early 2001. <BR/><BR/>Not only do you see a LOT of "Rescue Me" alumni show up from time to time or are even castmembers, you can see Leary and co-producing partner Peter Tolan's, brilliant fingerprints all over the series. Just my 2 cents. <BR/><BR/>But yeah, Netflix and basically Mad Men, Psych, & Swingtown are the only things tiding me over until Football and Tv shows all start returning @ the end of August.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
