Brock,
It's OK, I'd say one of the better new shows but not great! I've seen a few episodes and while I enjoyed it, I don't feel compelled to watch it. The best new shows this year imo are:
Dexter
Heroes
Justice
Dexter is the best, on pay TV though (Showtime), if you want to watch Heroes and Dexter, all episodes are here:

Timm,
No, they just did what Fox always does to new shows, they moved it to another night...Friday at 8pm! Usually a bad slot so I don't know if it will survive but it is a good show...Fox has three outstanding shows right now: House, Bones and Justice with Standoff gaining ground. Prison Break, while not a favorite of mine, is also highly thought of.

LOL...never got into that one either!
I do honestly think that this is the golden age of TV as the shows have gotten a lot better in the past 10-15 years. I've watched some of the older shows that I use to think were so great and frankly the writing as well as the acting is better today! I'll always have a place in my heart for the likes of The Honeymooners, Columbo, Kojak, Bonanza and the like but they simply aren't as good as more recent shows imo!
