I gotta stop watching tv shows lol started season 3 of Being Human UK and my crush on Aidan Turner just keeps getting bigger. Too many celebrity crushes but seriously this show is awesome and i might like it a little bit more than the US version



And now that summer is starting it's time for all of the USA shows i watch...Necessary Roughness, Royal Pains, Covert Affairs, Suits and I even like the new show Common Law and I dig Fairly Legal...i don't know what is with me and my addiction to USA shows but whatever

On memorial day I celebrated the troops by watching the entire last season of House, disappointing. Not in general really, but just nothing big, and the finale was a complete let down. I found that that show is good one episode at a time on occasion, but that if you try to watch them regularly it's gets old hearing psarcoidosis and give him trans fresis. or however the **** you spell it



Watched the finale of awake too. I really liked that show and was sad that it got canceled but the finale sucked. I assume it being canceled had something to do with it but man was it bad.

Totally agree about Awake. Awesome concept - just couldn't keep up.



And I though it was always Lupus?

Lupus was also another fall back, and legionaires, and a couple others, but I belive their was almost a running joke of fitting the word sarcoidosis into every episode.

Oh yeah, you're defniitely right about the other two... I'm so behind on the last season. I might just wait for Netflix to eventually get it.

40 minutes into hatfield and mccoys and i had to turn it off. Horrible sound mixing and over acting by almost everyone..esp costner. Paxson was okay but also overacting a bit. I really have a hard time watching costner..waterworld was his only good film because he barely spoke in it.

 

[nana]

Why can't they bring back good shows like, "BJ and the Bear?"

I laughed.

I just finished season 6 and started season 7. I could totally see how they could have ended it in season 5, it even seemed like that was the end and continuing the show was a post production idea. There was something in the ending in season 5 that still needs explaining.

Oh btw i highly recommend looking up all the gag reels for Supernatural on youtube. They have the best gag reels lol

disagree. I am going to go ahead and chalk it up to Canadians just don't understand American history. Hah

I meant to ask what are you watching them through?

haha. I probably know more about american history than half americans do. Im fascinated by it and how its propaganda body effects some americans and your culture.





Just couldnt get past the whispering dialogue while lumber is being produced in the background. Its poor sound editing and im getting old and need a hearing aid as is. I hate that while watching film or television. And you cant tell me costner doesnt over act. Ill give him credit for trying to rip off danielle day lewis though.



I might try watching again because i do like the story line.

Waterworld? Really?

 

[the canadian dream]

Waterworld? Really?

yup..Waterworld. Horrible film but Costners best because he didnt speak much. Not that it mattered i just fast forward until hopers parts anyways.

I laughed.

I wanted to post a clip of the opening credits to BJ & The Bear on BookJones birthday page but couldn't find a way to make it relevant to her actual birthday.

Go easy on Costner, he wasn't exactly the greatest actor in his prime (late 80's) plus he's put of practice, lol.

I am not saying it is the best because it is just history channel, but the period piece an also make it seem that way. The dialog itself is familiar yet not so its hard because you strain, and the sound is awful as you said.

 

[bookjones]

Seriously. How in the **** do y'all manage to watch so much TV?

How do you manage to read so many god damn books? Books are just movies and television episodes for people with crippled visual stimulation.



I actually only really commit myself to 2 series. Mad Men and Game Of Thrones. And Mad Men was crazy ass tonight and something happened to one of my favorite characters which I am not happy aboot. I don't have the energy for any other television series.



I will however watch most things that have a documentary theme. Thus my love for the history channel. I don't think I have followed a sit com religiously in my life. The only other dramas I ever committed fully to were Six Feet Under and Deadwood. I have seen every SNL, Kids In The Hall, Mr. Show episode and will watch any re-runs of them. Sketch comedy I love. I also have a thing for stand up comedy specials.



As far as overall television and film though I would prefer spending time with music and/or painting to fill my time. That's not saying I dislike television or film or think I am better than it. I enjoy both. Music is my first love though out of every art form.
