Number of new network sitcoms about total strangers who become fast friends: so far, two.
Number of new serial dramas that seem like they should resolve after one season, thus throwing season two into doubt: three.
Number of "Huff" ripoffs + number of "Fugitive" ripoffs + number of "Ghost Whisperer" ripoffs = three.
I always thought Huff might have been a better show with someone other than Hank Azaria in the lead, as his acting talent is often limited. But the thought of Ted Danson playing a similar character (or worse yet, basically making Becker again) makes me realize that Hank isn't too bad in that role.

I thought Ghost Whisperer was a rip-off of Medium with a less appealing leading actress. So, we're getting second generation rip-offs now?
