Last night, while washing dishes, I came to the following conclusion:

Come this fall, I really have to quit Prison Break and Smallville.

The reasons for this are numerous:

1. They are the two worst shows I continue to watch. Why am I wasting hours of my life watching shows that aren't even that good? What am I really getting out of them? I've watched ( Read more... )

It's time to remind you all that I do watch more than anime!

But, um, first, a question for the anime crowd.

After I finish The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya (which I am more than halfway through and love SO MUCH already), I am going to watch the famed Cowboy Bebop. Now, I was all set to watch it in Japanese with subtitles, but I hear that the ( Read more... )

This post will make more sense and have more thematic resonance if you have read the first post, which this was really supposed to be a part of. Think of it as a really, really long "Previously on spectralbovine."

This has been a weird year for me. Because I am quite opposed to not starting a show from the very beginning. I don't like just jumping in without having seen all the necessary backstory. But, er, then I did it with Entourage. And then later I did it with Avatar. But in the middle, I did it with SupernaturalI didn't intend to, really, but so many ( Read more... )

I need a week's vacation from life.

I just need time to...stop passing. I need some time for me. Just me. No one else ( Read more... )

It's not fun being uninspired, but that also means no new posts, which means no new comments, which means I feel lonely. So I must create new product! Here are some short thoughts on other shows I've watched since Monday:

( Gilmore Girls )

Dude, this episode was kinda...good. We actually...enjoyed it, mostly. So maybe our commentary isn't as funny. Or maybe it's funnier. There's kind of a spoiler for "Leave It to Beaver" in the teaser commentary, so skip to the credits if you haven't seen the finale yet.

Spectral Bovine: Oh no wait, the aliens are coming to abduct his sister.

There was a Buffy episode called "Forever," and it was better than this. Tonight's references include Lost, Veronica Mars, Wonderfalls, and one special LiveJournal user. Your teaser, as always:

fishinginthemud: they watch every clark and lana scene every morning before breakfast
FishingInTheMud: BO DON'T NEED NO SUPERPOWERS
Spectral Bovine: You're going to sign ( Read more... )

So there may be only like two people who actually think we're funny, but hey, we are here for you two people. And actually, we are funnier this week, I promise. Or at least, WE YELL IN CAPITAL LETTERS MORE AND CAPITAL LETTERS ARE FUNNY. It should be noted that there are spoilers for "A Trip to the Dentist," because everything in the entire world ( Read more... )

So our Reefer Madness commentary was a hit. It even got metaquoted. In contrast, only like five people cared about our Patience commentary. But I decided snarking on the show with fishinginthemud was the only way to make watching Smallville tolerable, so here we are again.

FishingInTheMud (10:11:01 PM): you ungrateful bitch!
Spectral Bovine (10:11:28 PM): Does ( Read more... )
