Don't say I didn't warn you, spoilers included, although none are exactly earth- shattering .

The buzz is low-key as TV season wraps without fanfare

For a May sweeps and finale period, the buzz is surprisingly low-key. Sure, fans are anticipating the exciting season wrap-ups of 24, Heroes, Grey's Anatomy, Dancing with the Stars, American Idol, and in some small, still-loyal circles, Lost, but the high drama of Mays past is missing.

Wave goodbye to 7th Heaven, The King of Queens and Gilmore Girls for good, but that's where the sense of overall finality ends. Of course, none of us knows the fate of Veronica Mars and other on-the-fence series, but that actually makes the season finales for these shows a bit exciting.

Where they stand :

DRAMAS

Jericho (Tonight, CBS): One of the town's leaders will die.

Supernatural (Thursday and May 17, CW): The two-part season finale airs over two weeks and involves the guys' presumed-dead dad (Jeffrey Dean Morgan, Grey's Anatomy's ill-fated Denny).

Without a Trace (Thursday, CBS): The team searches for a teenage girl who has joined a cult.

Ghost Whisperer (Friday, CBS): A prophet ghost visits Melinda (Jennifer Love Hewitt) with bad news.

ER (May 17, NBC): A new doctor (guest star Stanley Tucci) in the E.R. is all business.

Law & Order (May 18): A possible swan song for the series; there are whisperings that D.A. Arthur Branch (possible presidential candidate Fred Thompson) is out regardless of the show's fate.

I'm so out of touch with TV. I don't watch any of those shows except My Name Is Earl and The Office; I've not kept up with either, though. (DVDs are wonderful.)

Baseball, The Daily Show, and The Colbert Report are my TV.

[muffdiver]

I record 'em a lot or d-load them... Especially now with the NBA,NHL playoffs and baseball well under way....
