"Damages" Debuts on FX Tonight 10/9c

Big excitement as we tv-watchers have finally been given more than the usual doldrums of summer re-run fare. "Damages" has been highly touted for it's cast, led by Glenn Close and Ted Danson (that's right...Sam from "Cheers" who has a shock of white hair now and seems to be playing the heavy in this series). The critical reviews for this show have been through the roof, but only time will tell what will happen with, from what I've heard" this mixture of "24" meets "The Sopranos" meets "other critically acclaimed dramas led by tough-yet-lovably flawed female characters (see yesterday's post).

Can we and this summer possibly handle yet another unlikable but totally lovable woman on cable?

And does network television exist anymore?
