Lost

Dirty Jobs and the last 3/4 of a Project Runway episode.

Law and Order: SVU

charmed

was watching some simpsons DVDs ..

loved the Treehouse of Horror episodes the best ..

carnivale, season 2.

damn HBO for cancelling this. one of the best shows ever.

what is this show ?

never heard of it - but i saw a boxset in a store recently - and it was freaking expensive ..

Hell's Kitchen...

I laughed my ass off when Gordon called that bitch Sara a fat mouthed little cow :)


best exchange this season:

Ramsay: What's th ehold up?
Contestant: The scallops are sticking to the pan, chef.
Ramsay: Are you using a non-stick pan?
Contestant: uh.. uhh...
Ramsay:What? Come on! Use a non stick pan! That's why they call it non stick! Because things dont FUCKING stick to it!!!

i think this summary on imdb sums it up perfectly :

"1934, America. The Dustbowl. A fugitive named Ben Hawkins finds refuge within a traveling carnival comprised of a tarot card reader and her catatonic/telekinetic mother, a blind mentalist, a bearded lady, and conjoined twins, amongst others. The carnival is owned by the mysterious and unseen Management, who has designs on the young Hawkins, for the boy is concealing an untapped gift: he can heal the lame and raise the dead--at a price. Ben also finds himself disturbed by cryptic and prophetic dreams, which he shares with a Methodist preacher in California, Brother Justin Crowe. Brother Justin, convinced by his dreams he is following God's will, has begun to practice his own extraordinary talents, although the preacher's plans increasingly lead to disturbing and tragic consequences. In this "last great age of magic," Ben Hawkins and Justin Crowe are moving toward a great conflict between Good and Evil, although it not yet clear on which sides these men will stand."


i have season 1 and saw that season 2 even online was incredibly expensive, which is why i'm waiting and downladed it... ooh i mean taped. :rolleyes:

hehe... but really, one of the best shows ever. they stopped it after 2 seasons, just when all the real questions started coming up. so i'm still pissed. give it a check if ever you can. i assure you, it's well worth it.

Reminds me of what happened to Action on Fox (with Jay Mohr). it was a hilarious show, one o fthe first on prime time where they had to bleep half the dialogue. But they put it on thursdays opposite friends and seinfeld.... Fucking STUPID. not the first great series killed because Fox schedules things whenever the hell they feel.

that happened to me in a way .. i picked up season 1 of Jeremiah .. not a great show but i kind of liked it (and it was dirt ass cheap)

the ending is a cliff hanger .. and they never released season 2 !!

turns out that although season 2 was made, only a bit of it aired before it was canned.

kind of leaves you hanging ..

Back in '93, comedy central ran every single epsiode of Soap in order in a single marathon. I was just hooked enough to see what the hubbub was.

It ended with about 30 unanswered questions.

and meanwhile, stupid, sanctimonious shows such as 7th heaven continue to be on tv.

i will forever be pissed they cancelled carnivale. just thinking about it gets me all worked up. :mad:

7th heaven
Full House lasted a good long time
friends
Blossom was on FOREVER. ugly little cow looked like a damn vulture....

i havent seen any of these shows (or heard of half of them)

i stopped watching TV when Beta became commercially available.

the only exposure to TV i have is through boxsets.

this can be a problem because on several occasions I'm getting into shows that have been long since cancelled unknown to me.

That is like saying "Who was that hitler guy? people had some ugly things to say about him..."

trust me, you are a better person for not having witnessed them.

oh, i know ...


same as these reality shows people watch .. WTF is with that ?

people sitting on their asses watching other people live their lives.

what kind of a dead beat loser waste of life asshole bag of water do you have to be to willingly watch other people going about their day to day routines ?

get the fuck out of the house .. go buy groceries .. cut the fucking lawn .. anything !

No, its even worse... In order to qualify as a "reality" show, they place the people in completely unrealistic situations, not to mention they makre sure to mix up completely incopatible personalities. A more accurate name would be "Heavily structured social experimentation centered around terminally selfish subjects"

If it really were just people's lives, it would be boring. Instead, we get Amarosa telling jancie Dickinson she is a washed up crakc whore, then standing back and watching the psycho sparks fly.

either way - to hell with it - i havent had the time ... for over 20 years - for that kind of bullshit ..

situation comedies ...game shows...reality shows...cop shows....medical shows ....

shits all the same to me..

god i sound like an old bastard but the only decent things are the shows about animals (science and nature shows) but i couldnt be arsed to sit around waiting for 10 minutes of show wrapped in 35 minutes of commercials.

There are still some worht watching. i dont know if they are on DVD yet, but if you havent yet and get a chance to, check out House.

its smart, and House is a MEAN bastard. :)

I LOVE House!! Hugh Laurie is great!

Best dry humor on tv.

here's what I've bought and liked (without having seen it on TV)...

Dead Like Me .. seems to be a clever show .. developed nicely

Jerimiah .. not a good show but i like the character that played opposite Luke Perry (Jamal something..)

Spongebob Squarepants. I have all 3 seasons so far .. one of the funniest shows ever.

SCTV .. best show ever made for TV .. and one i saw before i stopped watching TV.

I have a few dozen other TV boxsets here and there ... but mostly older stuff..

Ive never had enough interest in spongebob to bother.

I regularly watch:
House
Hell'S kitchen
Invader Zim
The Simpsons
Family Guy
Good Eats

and the original iron chef's when they were still on the air (godamn foodnetwork.. does rachel ray need another 3 shows?)

i used ot watch the invisible man and farscape, but sci fi cancelled anythign that didnt suck.

spongebob is the best ...

funny as hell without any questionable material (something you'll grow to appreciate now that you're a new dad)


hard to put your finger on what makes the show so damn funny - it just is .. a nice blend of clever and silly...

cancelled after 2 seasons as well. damn HBO to hell !

well,

at least i have all the box sets then :D

just got Curb Your Enthusiasm Season 5 - the first two were a bit formulaic but the next two were hilarious. . . i hope they do a sixth season
