I pretty much don't watch broadcast TV, summer or otherwise. I get my news on the Internet (you can find all sorts of news sources online), or maybe a quick glance at CNN. As for shows, I have found better fare on cable, and usually cable has new programming coming out in the summer when the broadcast four go on an induced coma. As for the question, how do I know about the "must watch TV" stuff, again, that's what the Internet is for. I don't watch 24, for instance, but I know who Jack B is. Besides, if not online, there are plenty of interesting things to read. Best, and keep on blogging.
