I really like the show Life On Mars. The writing is great, and I love hearing the music that was popular when I was in high school (waaaay back in the '70s). So much writing is about the outsider, the person put in unusual situations, who has to figure a way to either get back or survive (and maybe thrive) in the condition they find themselves in.
I loved Pushing Daisies, and I'm so sad that only a few more episodes will be aired. I also love Christin Chenoweth, who played a great role in Daisies. It's such a shame that good writing seldom lasts on TV. Reality shows are cheap to make, and I've watched my share of them, but I long for thoughtful scripts. The Visitor was a great one for Star Trek:DSN. The Desperate Housewives episode with Beau Bridges actually brought me to tears. Perfection.
Here's music from the latest Mars:

The dancing ain't that great, but it looks like she was having fun, so that's what counts.
