I wrote about
EUReKA recently, because I really enjoyed the pilot (Sci-fi channel Tuesday nights after Dead Like Me), but I wanted to follow up because it is getting better and better. The supporting cast is so brilliant, and they are really spending some serious time with them: I am really falling for Joe Morton (who plays Henry Deacon, it had looked like a minor role in the pilot, but his role has gotten bigger and bigger in the following two episodes) who I remember loving in Brother From Another Planet (I do love me my Science Fiction!). I really recommend this, it is funny and interesting and full of promise to become a good character driven sci-fi mystery.
Did I mention that I got my
Done The Impossible DVDs? These are fan made about the activities of the fans to try to save Firefly and support Serenity. I am enjoying the DVDs, but they are kind of bittersweet: it is a little depressing to remember how sure we were a year ago that Serenity would be a huge blockbuster film and the beginning of a giant franchise to out-shine Star Wars. I don't mean that I'm losing faith in it, but I'm afraid it will be more like Star Trek: over years, as the fans don't go away and more people see the TV show & movie DVDs then eventually more movies will be made...and probably even a new TV show will be made...but it could be like 10 years from now (like it was for Star Trek).
sigh
today's Boondocks was very funny, definitely something I can identify with! LOL
