It's almost that time again! The time when all our favorite shows return and all the new shows try to pull us away from them and we try to strategically plan what we'll watch and what we'll record and what we'll wait to get on Hulu or DVD or over the summer. It's like waiting for a TV-centric Christmas: will our shows come back the way we love them? Will the season-ending cliffhangers really have much to do with the next season's plot? Will those two finally get together, even if it's just for one episode? What new drama will the writers manage to throw at us? How much of it will we like?
