Must See TV of 2010

Renee Bagley
Desperate Housewives -- To this day Desperate Housewives is still one of my very favorite television shows. How can one not love looking into the secrets and truths as they unfold in each episode? The ladies, and their loves and family, live on Wisteria Lane and somehow their lives all cross through their struggles and blessings that they discover. While most everyone in Wisteria Lane tries to live a nice, normal suburban life that is hardly ever the case. Secrets spill forth, problems reveal themselves, mysteries build, the truth is revealed, and somehow in the end...it all works out. Well, almost always. Desperate Housewives is amazingly good TV. Tune in to new episodes on Sundays, at 9PM c on ABC.

Smallville -- This show gets better and better every time I watch it. A young Clark Kent struggles to find his place in the world, and to save mankind. It's hard dealing with the problems of the world while trying to be a somewhat normal teenager. But Clark, played by Tom Welling always finds a way to save the day. At least he tries. A modern day story of a group of heroes, who try to make their mark on the world. New episodes air every Friday, at 7PM c on the CW.

Life Unexpected - This is a brand new television show starring Brittany Robertson as Lux, a 15-year-old foster child who while trying to seek emancipation from the foster system finds her real parents. Shiri Appleby plays Lux's mom Cate Cassidy, while Kristoffer Polaha plays her father Nate Brazile. This show warms the heart and makes you just feel good, despite being listed as a drama. Life Unexpected is the best new show I have seen that debuted just this year. Check out Life Unexpected on Monday, February 1 at 9:00 PM on the CW.

One Tree Hill -- This show gets better and better, and this television show is currently in its 7th season. Tag line: "Where nothing ever changed until one outsider changed everything." This TV series follows the life and events that occur for Tree Hill's high-school kids, who grow up, raise families, deal with life issues and still find time to enjoy life. They grow up in the small North Carolina town where small secrets become huge realities as the characters struggle to overcome their problems. My favorite parts of the show include James Lafferty as Nathan Scott, and his wife Haley James Scott, played by Bethany Jay Galeotti. Sophia Bush plays Brooke Davis, and is my favorite characters on the show. I love Austin Nicols as hunk Julian Baker. OTH is certainly worth watching. Tune in every Monday at 7PM c, on the CW.

The Bachelor: On The Wings of Love -- Guilty Pleasure! Season after season I have tried to avoid The Bachelor, I won't deny. But this season is interestingly watchable. And undeniably fun! Jake Pavelka, a Dallas Texas native searches for love narrowing it down from 25 women, to just one. Sounds fun huh. Well it isn't always fun, but like a car wreck, you just can't stop watching. Will Jake Pavelka end up with Tenley, or will it be Vienna? Maybe they both will be sent home. Who knows? Stay tuned every Monday when the show airs on ABC at 7PM c.

Leverage -- "Get ready to get even". This show focuses on a crew of high-tech crooks who steal from wealthy criminals and corrupt businessmen. Starring the one and only Timothy Hutton as Nathan Ford, who plays leader of the underground group. The well-rounded cast consisting of Gina Bellman as Sophie Devereaux, Christian Kane as Eliot Spencer, Beth Riesgraf as Parker, and Aldis Hodge as Alec Hardison. Throughout the show are many references to "Doctor Who". Leverage airs every Thursday on TNT.

Eastwick -- This show is TV at it's best. Why? The tag line says it all: "Everyone could use a little magic in their life." It's true! The plot centers around a mysterious man who delivers unique powers to three women. This drama fantasy shows what it would be like to go from being just a regular person, to being someone who can save lives, or cause revenge - just by touching someone, or looking in their eyes. Eastwick is a brilliant show starring Jamie Ray Newman as Kat Gardener, Lindsay Price as Joanna Frankel, and Rebecca Romijn as Roxie Torcoletti. See Eastwick on Wednesday's on ABC.

Dollhouse -- The plot centers of a group of residents who have their memories erased once they have completed their assignments. The futuristic lab contains "dolls" both men and women, who are put in to missions and afterward, remember nothing. Eliza Dushku plays head doll Echo. And Topher Grace is just one of the many great actors on Dollhouse. This show was created by Joss Whedon. Check out Dollhouse, Friday at 7Pm c.
