Television Series

[donteatpoop]

Anyone watching any good TV series?

Lost and Heroes are two of the greatest shows on television as far as I'm concerned.

I just started watching Dexter, and am really impressed with it.

And Entourage is one of the best comedies out there.

If you haven't seen any of these, I recommend you check them out (message me and I'll dig up a link for them).

Nip/Tuck was pretty good except for the last part of the last season where it grew retarded.

Curb your Enthusiasm is always good for a laugh. The comedy is brilliant.

I actually found myself enjoying Weeds quite a bit. It has some very funny moments, especially the brother in law character. He is the equivalent to Weeds as Han Solo is to the original three Starwars.

I watch Scrubs... and enjoy it... and feel dirty and hate myself for being able to say those two things honestly.

But I don't want to much TV overall... only when I'm eating alone generally. I do plan on checking out Dexter at some point.

Dexter is pretty awesome,they get hung up on always trying to make him want to be normal which gets old,but still is an original series.Has any one read the books the series was based on?I have the first two but havent got around to reading them.
I love the shows House MD and Heroes.Heroes is by far the most interesting.

I watch...
Lost
Battlestar Gallactica
Heroes
Traveler- not a show I would recommend, but keeps me entertained anyhow
Kyle XY
Eureka

Both House MD and Boston Legal are entertaining. Like so many other shows it is sad how absolutely riddled with formula they are, but I watch them anyway. I also saw some Doctor Who lately, and that looked promising, though anytime Russell T. Davies is involved in writing the episode it turns out worse. And they like him over there. I can't say much for any television I know of currently being truly exceptional, but it's something to fill time with I guess.

Kyle XY

Pretty much replace Traveler with Doctor Who and add House MD and you'd have my main list.

Oh, I forgot to mention, I recently watched all of Death Note in two days. It's a 34 episode Anime series from Japan. I hate anime but I loved it, it was very unconventional. I recommend it to all of you. It goes down hill in the 20's, but its still worth watching even if the ending sucks. Each episode is like 22 minutes and they are all online with english subtitles. Ask me if you want the link or just use google.

Fuck anime! FUCK ANIMEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!
AGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!

Ok, I'm going for more of those calming substances.

I'm still, after all these years, a diehard Simpsons fan and I'll tune into South Park now and then. I think The Office is funny and um, I watch ER for the men. That's about it. I generally don't like TV.

Oh, how could I forget? RERUNS! It's all about the World's Wildest Police Chases and Extreme Makeover and Star Trek TNG. *snort snort*

I hate anime as well. I really truly do. But for some reason I loved this series. It was different I swear.

[Hi! My name is: Katie]

I have no hated for Anime, in fact, I've discovered that if I don't approach life with a bias AGAINST anime, I can actually consider reading graphic novels in the anime style acceptable at work. I mean, compared to the many other things I could be doing at work, Anime is not so bad.


In any case, I've discovered lots of films I liked, and some of them transfer over to TV. I may have mentioend them, they should be repeated.

Noir- two chicks, guns, france cool theme song.
Elfen Lied- an engineered killer with a heart of gold under all the super power killing stuff.
Cowboy Bebop- weird unusual combination of American Jazz and Japanese culture.
Read Or Die- I never thought being able to control paper would be a super power, but after watching this origami seems way cooler.

anyway, so yeah, I'm not anti-anime, but then most of you knew I was a geek... I mean, I go to the comic book shop from time to time and pick up the Anita Blake comics AND I read the Living dead Graphic Novels thanks to End. So, eh. I'll embrace my inner geek.

[Vesnic]

I watch entirely too much Extreme Makeover to ever be an anime fan. But if I do follow through on my new life plan of crazy hermitude, then maybe I will consider nurturing my inner geek a bit more. It's just that I have some really traumatic Evangelion memories, lost some friends to it, it ruined a year of my life...
