I'm enjoying TCM, just not loving it, and can tell because I can let it sit for a while on the Tivo. That said, I do love some of the final contestants. Rick Bayless seems like one of the most genuinely nice and talented people, and I would love to check out Frontera. Hubert Keller and Anita Lo are also really cool. I do like the respect and the esteem that they have, so lacking in their younger counterparts on the regular show. And the food looks to die for. I think everyone thought Ted was going to be canceled, so no one believed it when it wasn't. (Sorta like Dollhouse). But def. worth checking out.

I haven't seen it yet, but everyone who knows the other shows I like (much the same comedies you list) has said I need to watch it stat. I hope to soon, though we've been spending our summer vacation thus far entangled with Chuck S2 and Psych... I've been digging on Top Chef Masters, though. I like that it's just as competitive but not in an aggressive, malicious way. Also, the food looks so good, and I now have a bunch of restaurants I want to eat at if I ever make it out to NYC or LA. I am still ruing the fact that we contemplated eating at Frontera Grill when we were in Chicago a year ago but decided to pass because it was too pricey.
