with reruns (like Lost), hiatuses (like Stargate, BSG, etc.) and so on, i'd love to just fill the week out with shows to watch.

My current schedule is:
Monday-nothing.
Tuesday-nothing.
Wednesday-Lost, Alias (soon to end), Bones
Thursday-Smallville, The Office
Friday-Stargate SG1, Atlantis, BSG
Saturday-do they even have new episodes of shows on Saturdays?
Sunday-Desperate Housewives, Sopranos, Family Guy, 4400, Entourage, Unscripted, Rome.

and blade (TV series) whenever it begins to debut.

i'd like to fill out the mon/tues night schedules with somn to watch. you guys got any suggestions? i know 24 is on Tuesdays, but i have to catchup from season1 onward.

edit: please don't list reality shows. i hate them =). only excellent fiction shows.

YiFeng: Bones is a good show, it just gets lost in the shuffle sometimes. The thing that bugs me the most about Bones is the 3-D holographic thing they have, i'll admit CSI stretches it but that is beyond belief!
CSI is a show I have watched since the beginning, I have not stayed with all the spin-offs but when I saw the first episode six years ago, I knew I was watching something almost "magical" as far as groundbreaking new ideas go. It has even shifted people's expectations of solving crimes and has made criminals cover their tracks based on things they have learned: not leaving cigarette butts behind, using clorox to destroy DNA, etc. You gotta admit when a show affects real life situations, it is pretty powerful. Detectives, lawyers, and judges even have coined a term for this phenomenon: The CSI effect.
