The TV Addict Weighs in on the Summer Season

Aug 03, 2008 02:51

It's been awhile since I've done one of these updates. With the Summer TV season in full swing I thought it was time.

I've used cuts just in case anything would be considered spoilery

Eureka!!! Yay for more of the crazy smart people :) Although--nice to see the end of their love triangle with Sheriff Carter--you don't actually think that's the end of it, do you? Writers like to torture people, it's in their blood, there will be more of the crazy triangle (or so I predict).

Burn Notice - I really need to catch up.

Atlantis - Um...yeah.

Continuum rocked my socks off. I really enjoyed it. The whole thing kinda felt like an episode from seasons 1-5 only with added Cam and Vala (who I love).

Well i was kind of hoping he'd given up on Allison - because between Carter and Stark - Well let's just say I'm all about guys named Stark!!!

I do like Cam and Vala - I just hated all the Ori stuff - Really glad they tied that up and moved on.

I have a theory that Major Davis is really a Torchwood liason making sure that the Americans don't fuck it up too badly with the Stargate, which is why he hasn't been promoted for so long.

Eureka: Just started watching (recorded much of the SciFi marathon the other day in prep for the series premiere). Think I'll try to catch up. Just glad the sherriff and what's her name aren't doing that awkward not flirting thing. I just couldn't see them together. Cliche I know, but he needs someone like his deputy(but not her because i can't see it either)

Burn Notice!!!!

Psych: I'm kinda meh about this one.

I lost track of the SG verse a long time ago.

Have a look at some gorgeous salty goodness: http://tahirire.livejournal.com/31627.html

OMG - Thanks yo for the link - Yummy Winchester goodness in the morning. I adore Thomas Dekker and now i know why - he is the lost Winchester.

Eureka is fun! A bit uneven but worth the time.

I second it - Burn Notice!!!

Eureka does it for me because of the quirkiness. From the theme music down. I'm a bit concerned because there can be such weakness with some of the writing and agree that there just isn't enough Henry. If they're going to pair McSheriff it needs to be with someone more quirky. He and Alison just never had it.

Burn Notice - what to say. I fucking love this show! Bruce Campbell can do me any way he wants. Started watching it at the very beginning (odd for me, I usually catch on to things after they've been canceled) and have been seriously hooked. And then our Starke was in an ep with Ms. Lawless - Lord have mercy. That was just a wonderful side-note to a terrific show.

I never got Allison with Carter and I hope that triangle is dead for good.

I still have False Flag on My DVR - Can't delete Ezra! I adore Bruce Campbell and he's the reason i started watching. Must have been fun for him to reunite with LL. Plus AS did an episode of Brisco County Jr. - Wonder if they are friends or just a coincidence?

Eureka - still love the show, though I'm having my doubts about the Nathan/Allison thing. I really hope Carter gets over this her, because I'm tired of the 'triangle', too. Though, I love it when Stark and Carter snark at each other (though I think it's more prevalent in fanfic than it is on the show).

Psych - don't watch it. I tried at the beginning, but 2 eps in I lost interest.

Burn Notice - still awesome! Is it me, or is Michael getting more sarcastic and snarkier as time goes on? (I love it, BTW.)

SGA - let's just say I'm watching this for continuity's sake, and that's it.

Still haven't seen either of the SG movies, and haven't had a burning desire to, either.

Are you getting Primeval S1 or S2 on BBCA?

I love it when Stark and Carter snark My favorite moments in the show. It happens every episode - but since I've never read Eureka fic - i can't say if Fanfic exaggerates. - Any recs?

Primeval is starting from the beginning. Looking forward to it but I did hear it was a bit uneven.

Micheal is getting cheekier. And I think Fi is getting more dangerous. Both of which are fine by me!
