Previewing "Breaking In" for the press, star Brett Harrison suggested, "If you like "The A-Team", you'll like "Breaking In". If you like "The Office",'you'll like "Breaking In". And if you like breaking-in, you will like "Breaking In!". Harrison's observation proved strangely prophetic in at least two ways: First, the new Fox comedy does combine comic elements from "The Office" with "The A-Team's" dark, sarcastic point of view. Office humor"”there's just no such thing as too much. Second, the weak attempt at humor in Harrison's last line is sadly characteristic of the writing for "Breaking-In." Apparently, the B&E crowd lobbied for its own version of appointment viewing. Who knew? Although it's becoming this season's standard"”bad guys gone good, the premise nevertheless has promise. Five exceptionally skilled and highly specialized burglars team-up to operate Contra Security, a consulting firm that tests companies' security systems by breaking into them. Borrowing liberally from "Leverage" and "Breakout Kings," this wickedly bland team includes a hacker, a bad girl who can pick any lock, a semi-skilled con man, and a mysterious boss. First episode ratings may prophecy the sitcom's fate. Scheduled right after a big-big episode of "American Idol", "Breaking In" carried approximately 19 million viewers into its time-slot; by the end of its half-hour, 12 million of them had tuned-in elsewhere.

Just as we all began to wonder whether or not William H. Macy ever would land a role as juicy and delicious as playing Felicity Huffman's real-life husband, he scored arguably the greatest part of his entire career, starring as Frank Gallagher on Showtime's gritty new "Shameless." Frank drinks. Frank drinks shamelessly, intrepidly, relentlessly, recklessly and irretrievably while his six motherless children learn to fend for themselves on Chicago's unforgiving south side, "back of the stockyards," as they say, although the cattle have long-since gone. In the first episode, a properly burly Chicago police officer deposits Frank on his entryway floor, noting his incontinence and suggesting, "I wouldn't put him anywhere near a carpet until his pants dry." This ain't no Wisteria Lane. Adapted from its British companion, the American version of "Shameless" fulfils producer John Wells's long-standing desire "to make a television show where familial love, juicy cursing, casual sex and drug use, bluntly put humor, mega-alcohol bingeing and total chaos reign." The subject matter and setting naturally lend themselves to that treatment, and the entire casts rises to the occasion. "Shameless" depicts abject poverty, incurable alcoholism, and hopeless co-dependence as grimly and accurately as they deserve, yet it still persuades slightly spellbound viewers the Gallaghers genuinely love one another.

Three uniquely Perfect Couples make for delightful entertainment"¦ The humor in this sit-com is to be found in satire and often bizarre behavior on the part of six individuals who just happen to consider themselves perfect in a world filled with imperfections. If Amy and Vance are not fighting they are making love with little common ground in the middle. Leigh and her husband Rex see themselves as the perfect pair who are also experts when it comes to relationships. The pair that are closest to normal may be Julia and Dave and the others seem to be able to relate best to them. While we may each feel we know a great deal about some subjects, these three couples know they represent the perfect couple, and that may be their biggest flaw. Episodes include subject like food poisoning, dead opossums, and bickering among themselves that no one actually takes seriously. A talented cast with familiar faces will help make this comedy a hit and the excellent writing should keep it running for years. There is a chemistry between each character that shines and captures the audience.

With a controversial plot and an exceptionally talented cast of young actors, "SKINS" is a top quality television program to watch and be entertained by. Residing in Bristol in South West England we observe a group of teenagers as they explore modern issues including mental illness, dysfunctional family life, death, drugs, sexual identity crisis, and eating disorders. The amateur actors along with some youthful writers pull together a thoroughly enjoyable program that is often hard hitting and relevant to everyday life. Season one finds Nicholas Hoult (Tony Stonem) to be a popular, intelligent boy. An attractive young man, he finds it easy to manipulate those around him into doing what he wishes and this makes him entertaining just to see what he can get away with next. He has a best friend Mike Bailey (Sid Jenkins), who is entirely opposite him personality wise. Tony also has a girl friend that gets upset with him and his self centered ways but can't seem to stay angry with him. Another young girl has an eating disorder she hides and parents with a new baby that seems to take over her parent's attention completely. Thoroughly entertaining story and music make SKINS a winner.

"Psych TV Show" features slick psychic crime-fighter with no psychic gifts. Unlike most basic cable networks, USA has generated many of its own hit shows on the strength of excellent characters and situations enhanced by exceptional writing. As bigger networks go into hibernation between seasons, USA wisely introduces its powerhouse programming. Among the network's original scripted dramas, "Psych TV show" has become one of the favorites. Walking the margin between crime drama and satire with tongue very deeply in cheek, "Psych TV series" stars James Roday as a fast-talking, exceptionally observant private investigator who manages to persuade the Santa Barbara police that he actually is a psychic. The backstory shows the tension between father and son, and it emphasizes how dad trained Shawn to pay attention to the most minute details, coincidences, and anomalies in everything he observes. Acute powers of observation easily pass for mystic revelations, and a healthy dose of wise-cracking charisma seals the deal. Over the objections of his disapproving police officer father, law enforcement officials reluctantly hire Shawn Spencer, psychic, to assist with solving their most challenging cases. Of course, Spenser and his reluctant sidekick Gus, brilliantly brought to life by Dule Hill, succeed where others fail.
