With satellite television from Direct TV, you’ll have access to a range of programming that will perfectly fit your mood. With hundreds of channels and thousands of shows, there won’t be a moment of boredom. Here are some of our picks for the best of summer, 2009.

Entourage: Featured each Sunday night on HBO, Entourage is an inside look at the way Hollywood works, as portrayed by a gang of four high school buddies. Loosely based on Mark(y Mark) Wahlberg’s early years as a rising star, great scriptwriting and even better directing make this show a favorite.

Desperate Housewives: Every suburban woman can associate with the stars of this show. Set on Wisteria Lane in the fictional town of Wisteria, constant drama is a neighborhood fixture. A star cast includes Eva Longoria, Teri Hatcher, and Felicity Huffman. Beware: you won’t be able to stop at one. Set aside a couple of hours and check out reruns on Direct TV On Demand.

Mad Men: After a long break, one of television’s most critically acclaimed show is back on for your enjoyment. Mad Men, a depiction of wild Madison Avenue in the 1960s, is a completely unique hour of television. Flying in the face of conventional wisdom, this new take on an old school topic has garnered a wide following as it segues into season 3.

24: No two numbers on television elicit such a reaction from fans. Jack Bauer (played by Keifer Sutherland) is the hottest actor on satellite TV, and he’s back for a new season of fast paced insanity. There’s a new movie in the works as well.

These shows are all available on satellite television. Many can be ordered for free from On Demand, so if you have a busy schedule, you can watch TV on your time. Enjoy all of the programming that’s made Direct TV satellite television the number one television provider in America.
