It's funny, I don't tend to notice the music choices unless I a) like the music or b) it gets in the way of the dialogue and voice over. (ie. I can't hear.)

In my opinion the only tv series that ever did music well was Buffy.
All the others are unmemorable and I ignore. ;-)

Hee, I think Ringer is (unintentionally) hilarious. But I also, as you know, love serial dramas. Procedurals on the other hand...

But I am please that you've found a show you enjoy this season, the pickings have been admittedly thin. :-)
