TV Series...

Jul 31, 2008 21:19

This week and the last one I've worked the 12h night shift. Extra cash is always welcome since money latelly lasts less and less and my interests keeps widening.
It's been OK. I wish it wasn´t 12h, but otherways, working alone at night is still my favorite thing. I really am someone who enjoys her solitude it seems. O_o

Anyway, one of the things to do at nights (I usually have about 3h of free time scattered during all night). Is to watch TV series. So I did.

Primeval: Not bad, not bad at all. Horridly translated as "Invasión Jurásica" (Jurasic Invasion) by Cuatro. That tittle almost guarantes a 0  viewers. It's a shame. Cuatro is probably getting UK series very very cheap, it's the only explanation I can find to how little attention they put into marketing them. Season 1 has 6 chapters, Season another 7 and season 3 is confirmed.

The Big Bang Theory: :D Fantastic. We love Sheldon, we all love Sheldon. It had been recomended to me several times and I finally watched it. I have to recommend it too now. Currently in season 1 chapter 17.

-_- Gosspi Girl: Get 90210 (aka Sensación de Vivir) put it in Upper Manhattan, add a touch of Dangerous Liaisons... And you get this thing. I won´t say anything too affensive to not offend the person who recomended it. But please, never ever ever recopmmend to me anything like this. Falls into same category as: Sex in the city/Sexo en Nueva York, One Tree Hill, The OC. Melrose Place, etc etc etc... Managed to survive 2 chapters.

Life in Mars (UK): :D Also fantastic. I was curious about it, it's often recomended in Dr. Who / Torchwood fandoms. But I didn´t knew if it was realy worth it or it just was because the main character is played by John Simm (the Master @ Dr. Who s4 finale). Now that I've seen it... GOOOD!!! XDDD It was great. It slows a bit by the end of season 1, but the overall result of the series (only 2 seasons of 8 chapters each) is that I really really recommend it.

Jekyll: They started passing it in Cuatro last Sunday. It doesn´t looks great but not bad either. The name Steven Moffat gives it the right to be given more opportunities. But since it's in Cuatro it'll probably be better to download it. They don´t offer the option to offer if you want to see it dubbed or in its original language. Only 6 chapters.

You can tell the impact of Dr.Who and Torchwood on my TV series choices. One year ago I didn´t even knew UK actually produced stuff worth watching. XD I assumed they had the same kind of crap Spain, France, Germany and Italy produces. But actually, no. They do know how to do TV Series worth watching even if you aren´t from that country.

Oh, and Eureka restarted, s3. Season 2 wasn´t all that great (or I just lost interest, I don´t know) we´ll see about this one.
Tonight I'll watch some Supernatural, yesterday I listened 2 chapters, seems to be watchable (the sort of series you'll watch online/on tv but wouldn´t bother downloading).

*yawns* Anyone else watching something worth it? Or something they wish they had never suffered throught?
