I'm going to watch V tonight since I was out last night. I don't want spoilers, but did anyone love it? Hate it? Were ambivalent about it?

I'm also definitely adding White Collar and Sons of Anarchy to my to-watch list.

Mad Men )

mad men, movies

I thought the new "V" was ok. I was a huge fan of the original. The new one is kind of slow in the beginning but the last 15 minutes kicks it into gear. I'm looking forward to more episodes.

"White Collar" is much fun. I love that show alot. Katey Sagal and Ron Pearlman are the real stars of "Sons of Anarchy" if you ask me. I call them Bundy & The Beast. They rule every scene they're in and totally steal the show. That said, the plots are hit and miss at times.

I've been so sick of Don's cheating and lies and more cheating on "Mad Men" but they still managed to make me feel sorry for him. Although not that sorry. I was cheering Betty on when she confronted him. Go Betts!

I really loved the first one, too. And thanks for the notes on the other new shows. (New to me, I mean!)

I know, when Don took up with the teacher, I was like, WE ARE DONE PROFESSIONALLY, DONALD DRAPER. Yet he still gets to me. Jon Hamm is so brilliant.

Gawd, but I hated that teacher. I'm still hoping that she gave him crabs.

I had to butt in and say I *loved* your calling SoA 'Bundy and the Beast'. I had the pleasure of meeting Ron Perlman at a Beauty and the Beast convention in Orlando, Florida *years* ago. *sigh* Such a fine actor and charming and lovely man.

Mad Men was excellent, thank heavens they are letting the burn sizzle on Betty's discovery, that's what happens when a bomb is dropped on a marriage, especially back then.

V was interesting, I really think it has potential, real takeovers are done with publicists and the press and I like that the show is holding to that.

I'm glad they're slowly having the marriage unravel, too. I couldn't believe my ears when Betty told him she doesn't love him anymore! (Just because she's been so long-suffering.) Ouch, but I can't blame her at all.

Cool, I look forward to V!

The Kennedy assasination was handled so well and I was riveted. I loved Pete and Trudy in this episode especially. I really want Pete to end up as a freedom rider or something at the end of the series. And I want Betty to be a hippie. I want Peggy to rule the world.

Little Sally Draper is SO going to be a hippie!

I barely remember the original, so at least I can't compare too much! I did really love it as a kid, though.

I thought Paranormal Activity was so boring. I mean, I jumped at a couple of the creepy parts, and there were a couple, so maybe if the whole movie had taken place at night, but I found everything else to drag on. A couple sitting behind me left, they thought it was so bad.

I really enjoyed the actors; I thought they did a great job ad-libbing and pretending to be a couple.
