Hey is NBC going to rerun season 2 this summer before season 3 kicks off?

I'm sorry, but modern TV networks only "rerun" sitcoms and CSI. I
recommend recording the shows you like and watching them again before
the next season starts.

By the way, DirecTV has all of season 1 and season 2 available through
its On Demand system, but they charge $1.99 per episode.

If you actually believe this, you haven't been watching much TV. Modern TV
networks rerun everything that has more than one season - and some things
that don't. There are so many networks these days, they have to fight over
programs. Why do you think so much of what's on is pure drek?

I'm not talking about cable nets picking up shows following their
broadcast network runs, or about shows that get syndicated to local tv
stations. I'm talking about the practice of rerunning key episodes of
the previous season before the next season starts. It still happens,
but not nearly to the extent it did when I was young. I always
thought it was an ideal thing to do, especially for a serialized
show. Promote the heck out of it and let people who have heard the
buzz but haven't watched catch up. However, no network suits ever
seem to agree with my opinions.
