Ill be the first one to admit it, when it comes to shows like NCIS, Bones and CSI I am a hardcore fan. If I miss an episode the rest of my week just sucks! A few years back when I started really getting into CSI (the one with Grissom) I wanted to try and found out everything I could about this show especially when it was going to be back on air! I made the mistake of “reminding” myself when the Season Opener was going to be on and wouldn’t ya know it, I got the date wrong! I was so bummed! After that, I decided it was probably a good idea if I went online and tried to find some websites where I could actually find out exactly when the show was going to be on as far as the date and the time.

I found some of the nicest websites available out there and they didn’t just include schedules either. They also included some really cool “clips” of the shows along with a few synopsis of what we could expect this season! I really liked these websites because they didn’t just include one type of show or one show for that matter. Instead they included all kinds of different categories such as Drama, Comedy, Action, and mystery plus they had all kinds of shows, some of which I have never even heard of. These shows included ones like; 30 Rock, 24, American Idol, How I Met Your Mother, NCIS and The Amazing Race. These sites are some of the most popular sites simply because of the variety that they carry.

I think by now we know that everyone seems to have their own “tastes” when it comes to TV shows. Some people love Survivor while others anticipate Thursday nights for something like CSI! Either way, no matter what you like watching or what you are interested in, you will definitely find them on these websites. And who knows, maybe you will even find a show that you never thought you knew anything about and absolutely love it! I know this has happened to me quite a few times through out the years. I might hear something about a new show but eh it doesn’t really sound all that interesting. Once I check out a little bit more about the show I start to realize that this is something that I could really like, so I give it a go and as they say - the rest is history!

It seems that TV watching is like politics, everyone has their own point of view and everyone likes something different. Well if you’re the type of person that likes reality TV then you probably watch shows just like Big Brother and Survivor and if this is the case you are probably a huge addict just like me! As of late, I have been really anxious for Survivor to come back but I really haven’t seen any commercials for when its going to come back or anything about the show so I decided to have a look and see what I could find!

What I came up with were some really interesting websites that gave some really nice information on not only when these shows will be coming back but also some nice previews as well. If you are the type of person that likes to be in the “loop” then these sites are definitely for you. Even if you haven’t ever watched a show like Survivor you could get a pretty good idea of what this show entails just from reading the descriptions on these websites and watching a few videos. Here is a excerpt from one website about Survivor:

“Survivor is a popular reality TV game show format broadcasted in many countries throughout the world. In the show, contestants are isolated in the wilderness and vie for cold hard cash and other prizes such as trips and cars. The show exercises a progressive elimination scheme, allowing the contestants to vote off a tribe member, until only one final contestant remains and wins the title of “Sole Survivor”. The format for Survivor was created in 1992 by Charlie Parsons, and the first production of it was the Swedish show Expedition: Robinson in 1997.”

The videos on these websites are of high quality so its not like your going to be watching some third level hack video. Plus, like on a lot of other unnamed websites (ABC/NBC/CBS) you don’t have to sit through grueling advertisements which can often become quite annoying! Personally, I really like websites like this because as aforementioned it does help keep me in the loop but it also gets me interested in shows I may not have heard of before! I am all about watching my regular shows but if I see something that interests me, I’m willing to give it a whirl! Some other reality TV shows that you should check out are: American Idol, Real World, The Apprentice, and the ever popular Amazing Race!

Fox announced Tuesday morning that “Prison Break” will end its run after four seasons this spring, says Variety. The drama returns to the network’s schedule on Friday, April 17 at 8 p.m. for a final run.

In other Fox news, the network confirmed that its “American Idol” results show will air in its traditional Wednesday 9 p.m. slot after all.

“Idol’s” Wednesday edition will move to 9 p.m. once the show reverts to its in-studio competition phase. That means new drama “Lie to Me,” which is initially airing behind “Idol” on Wednesdays at 9 p.m., will slide down to 8.

Also, Fox announced that new animated comedy “Sit Down, Shut Up” will air Sundays at 8:30 p.m. starting April 19.
