What did you watch last night?

I truly don’t know why I’m hanging onto “Heroes.” I keep recording it although I haven’t actually watched an episode since way back in March. Am I missing a rebound? Should I try to catch up?

Monday night, I watched “House,” hoping for more of the aftermath of Kutner’s suicide but happy, in the end, with the outcome of the Chase-Cameron storyline. When they’re on, it always feels like the old “House.”

And speaking of old times, how about Kim Bauer returning on “24″ to reconcile with her dying daddy? There were also a couple of “what the?!!” moments in the episode, one involving my beloved Tony and the other FBI agent Larry. (Can you tell I’m trying to avoid spoilers here?) BTW, the FBI agent, named Davis maybe, who met a quick demise in the fight over the canister, was played by St. Louisan Eric Nenninger.

To trim down my reality TV calendar, I’ve stopped watching the performance show of “Dancing With the Stars” and just watching the results show on Tuesdays. I know; that’s wimping out. But there are only so many hours in the day.

I did record “Medium,” because people keep asking me if it’s jumped the shark, and I haven’t watched all season. I’ll get to it at some point.

Whata did you watch?

Like you, I watched “House,” but then turned to “Heroes” and then “Castle.”

I’m not sure why I’m hanging on to any of them, but then I’m the guy who watched 15 seasons of ER.

I figured they’d bring back Kim at some point. I’ll be watching the episode tonight when I get home.

“Medium” has settled into a bit of a rut, but I don’t think it’s jumped the shark yet.

I watch Heroes (still love it, but I thought last night was REALLY good, it was the Angela Petrelli backstory that everyone had been anticipating) and of course, How I Met Your Mother, good good show…

I watched DWTS because I love to watch the dancing. I don’t care who wins with the exception of Steve-O who is a gigantic clutz. Why is he still on? Are there that many Jackass fans? Anyway, I also watch and love House. No Medium for me - I’m an XL, so I watch my TiVo’d Ellen as I do every day.

Chuck: Still good, very entertaining although the Buy More story line is kind of weak. Don’t they ever wonder why Chuck clocks in but is never there?

Heroes: It’s not improving, it’s getting more and more lame. Last night I dozed off at about 8:40 and didn’t even try to stay awake since the story was so drawn out and boring.

After that I think I slept through Patton 360.

I watched the Cardinals — that will probably be my answer to this question for the rest of the season. (Between innings I switched over to see what Olbermann and Maddow were doing)

Watched parts of “House” while I was busy doing other things. Never did see the end. “Chuck” was being recorded because I still haven’t seen last week’s episode. I was able to pay a little more attention to “24″ which was business as usual until the “didn’t see that coming” ending.

Then I actually got to sit down and watch “Medium” which I don’t think has jumped the shark. Unfortunately it seems like we get fewer episodes every season, and it doesn’t start until January or February. So like the dramas on cable, it’s always a whole year before we get anything new. I’m afraid “Medium” might be one of the first casualties of the new Leno show.

How I Met Your Mother is a Monday staple for me. House usually makes the cut as well, as it did this week.

House, if only to see if they are going to ever run out of rare life-threatening diseases that look like other diseases. How many can there be? I would like to see a story about the show’s medical consultants.

24, and glad to see Kim without the mountain lion. Unlike most previous years, it took them as long as hour 17 to run out of storyline and start making stuff up as they go. It usually starts about hour 12. But if you stop to wonder about all the plot holes, you miss the point. And what happened to Chloe? Her husband? The President’s husband? Bad casting for the role of the President. And I forgot who the guy is with the buzz cut and the intense look who keeps interrupting her to tell her Jack’s on the phone. And is Jeanine Garofolo going to get any more lines?
