For those who stubbornly continue to say there’s nothing worth watching on television I can point to a dozen shows worth anyone’s time. You can catch up on these shows at our partner site Cinema Blend, but there’s one in particular I’m anxiously waiting the return of.

You people can keep your hot climate, dry or wet.
