on the Fringe

[roxybisquaint]

Is it just me or does TV suck lately? Last season everything rocked. This season, almost nothing does. *sigh* Maybe I'm just not into TV because I'm still feeling the Sarah Connor void. I crave rich character drama and it's just not easy to come by. I've watched four seasons of the Wire in the past two weeks, which kept me very satisfied, but I've

Yeah, I haven't found anything I really want to watch on TV this season. It doesn't help that casual viewing is a nigh impossibility on my schedule.

Oh well. I've still got a backlog of anime to watch....

[roxybisquaint]

Wait, how can casual viewing be a problem for any schedule?

I wish I had the slightest interest in anime. If that ever changes for me, at least I know who to ask about what's good to watch.

Err... "casual viewing" in my case being defined as "I don't have to download it". I don't have a DVR anymore, and most of TV prime time falls into when I'm getting ready for work, on my way to work, or at work, which makes it hard to watch live. So unless something really catches my interest, I'm not likely to make the effort. Maybe this is just a sign that I need to get with the times....

If you ever get curious about anime, by all means, ask away. I am well prepared to lure others into my addiction. :-D I even know of a few shows that I think would push a bunch of the same buttons that TSCC did.

Hulu takes pretty much all the effort out of it, (especially now that ABC has joined) and is perfectly legal.

I've actually been enjoying this season, although now that I think about it there's few shows that I'm really estatic about. Dollhouse got significantly better and had one or two episodes that tied with... I dunno, an average SCC episode, I guess, but I'm not going to be sad when it ends.

Dexter though... holy shit that ending was.... holy shit!

Dollhouse got significantly better

The pilot and second episode bored the hell out of me, so I never really gave it a chance beyond that. My husband watches it, though so I sort of half-watched a lot of the episodes. As time went on, I'd ask him more questions about what was happening. In the two weeks especially, I've found myself totally getting sucked in. Heh. Oh well. Too little too late, I guess.

Dexter though... holy shit that ending was.... holy shit!

Oh thank God you didn't say how it ended because I'm not going to see it until Monday night. Until then, I shall have to tread cautiously on the interwebz!

[bobmacpharson]

Don't worry. I already knew there was going to be an "Oh, shit!" moment and I still went "Oh shit!" when it happened.

I heard a while ago that this season was going to have a *shocking* ending, but I have no guesses... *bites nails*
