Many of those cable originals are very good. Some stretch a bit in their language and nudity, but some are excellent without that.
I am surprised the regular networks haven’t tried to pick them up and extend their seasons, as they tend to be 5 to 12 week series.
Psyc, The Closer, Burn Notice are just some cable originals that are interesting and not really family unfriendly.
I agree, I think The Closer is one of the best written shows on TV.
My wife and I are big fans of BN and Psych in particular.
We love Psych and House. Lately, we’ve been watching Psych reruns via the USA website. We also watch House via FOX.com because we often are out of the house when the show airs.
