I've gotten myself involved in another TV show. I mean, I haven't been this wrapped up in a show since Voyager. And that was eight (!) years ago. X-Files was more of a fic addiction, Stargate Atlantis was a brief affair (until they killed off my favorite character, dammit ( Read more... )

In addition to my new Torchwood love, thanks to Netflix's instant video streaming I am now in love with Doctor Who as well. Of course, they do kind of go hand in hand. And now Torchwood makes a lot more sense now that I've gotten through Season 1 of Doctor Who. But I'm having trouble getting through Season 2 for two main reasons, one, as much as I ( Read more... )

Out of all the things I planned to accomplish on my five and half day break from work I think I got done three. Really two and a half. I still haven't applied for my passport, only half of my laundry is done (since I only do it once a month I tend it do it in shifts because its too much to carry to the laundromat), and I don't have a nightstand, ( Read more... )

With Stargate Atlantis coming to a somewhat unimpressive end I have been on the search for a new scifi show to fill the void. Specifically one to which I can dedicate an almost religious passion such has been with SGA, X-Files, and Star Trek (and a few other non scifi shows ( Read more... )

There's a great series on CBS called Eleventh Hour, it comes on Thursdays @ 10pm. I watch all new scifi shows at least once to see if I like them, and this one has been quite good. I'll admit, its a bit of an X-Files ripoff, where an FBI agent and her science adviser partner investigate 'crimes and crisis of a scientific nature' (and if that guy ( Read more... )

Well roll me over with a feather. There's a new Star Trek moving coming out next May. I had heard vague speak of such, but didn't really think about it until I just had a movie trailer pop up when I was browsing a website. While I'm generally not a fan of prequels and remakes of things that I liked pretty good the first time, I am intrigued ( Read more... )

So I had to go see the movie today because I'm working swings from Saturday through Wednesday and I know I would absolutely barely be able to avoid spoilers for a week so I dragged myself to the 530 showing (which was surprisingly full), and sat down just as the theme was playing.

Wow. I finally sat down to watch the last few episodes of Californication that I've had sitting on my computer for months. And now I ask myself, what the hell took me so long? The season finale was enough to seriously make me consider calling SuddenLink to see if I can get Showtime. Not to mention of course my new found love for Dexter and the ( Read more... )

A summary of my recent TV watching, which has not been all that much since I've been working nights and evening

I guess I could be annoyed at the teenagers who so nicely rang my doorbell at 230 in the morning. But I am a forgiving person. Thankfully I was still awake so they didn't wake me up though they did get my adrenaline pumping. I mean, why else would someone be ringing the doorbell at that time of morning except for an emergency? Or a joke as it seems ( Read more... )
