Boring time of year TV-wise

I can't believe that almost all of my shows don't have a new episode until a month or so. Most of the shows that don't go on break right now are reality shows, so no wonder they have become so popular. (Aside from Lost, of course, which had its own break already.)

Perhaps one reason for this March-April break of new episodes is to give the "mid-season" replacement shows a chance. I have started watching the Black Donnellys, but I'm not entirely sure if I will keep watching. The ratings aren't great, so perhaps it will be cancelled anyway. October Road looks somewhat interesting, but I'm not sure if I'll even check it out.

It's crazy that once the new shows do come back on in April, there will be a few new episode until May, and then it'll all be over with until September/October! Craziness!
