TV

Anyone else been watching Leverage? It's a really enjoyable fun show, I'm glad it's been picked up for a 2nd season. Tomorrows season finale should be amazing.

Top Chef is back! Anyone else watch this show? I'm a bit of a foodie and like it because they actually have real/legitimate chefs on the show. The first challenge was very appropriate given the setting and I thought the first elimination challenge was very revealing.

Lost has been an odd show for me, I really liked the first season, hated the second season and liked most of the third season after the first few episodes. So far in season four I've been really happy with where the show is going. All the drama, tension and intrigue that first made me a fan is back and honestly so far I think season 4 is shaping up to be the best yet.

Ok I am hooked on both the US and UK versions of the show, my source for the UK show only has episode 1 and 2. Any people over int he UK or Australia have a way to rent the DVDs and convert them to AVI files for me. I'll pay for the DVDs and shipping and we can work out anythings additional if required. Anyway I really like the concept but I am a sucker for cops shows and with the sci fi twist it is a winner for me. The 1973 NYC vibe is a nice touch as well being from NY anyway. Any other fans of the show out there?

Watched the premiere last night. It kicked all sorts of ass, and I'm definitely looking forward to seeing where it goes. Oh, and yeah, I Anna Torv. That is all.

Anyone else try this? I have been playing with this feature for the last 2.5 months or so. I love it! I think it's the baby steps of the things to come. As of now availability of current features is limited, so if you are into the latest releases, this is not for you. If you like older movies and shows then this will provide quite a bit of entertainment. Some recent movies are available, specially art and foreign. As to the resolution, I don't think it's quite at the DVD level, but not too far behind. So it may not be for everyone. As of now the way it works is that you get as many hours of instant watching as $ you pay for your plan. Right now i've been burning …

I haven't finished season one yet. I'm 14 chapters in and am totally addicted. Between this and Halo 3 every muscle in my body with be atrophied by next month. So did anybody catch the season 2 premier yesterday? With out spoiling anything how do you like how the season is starting out?

Since many here are into gadgets and hopefully as many into sex, anyone seen Gadget or the Girl?

I'm sorry. I can't help it. I am mesmorized by the Quest commercials that take a black and white sand image of one thing (like a tree and it's still reflection in a lake) and have a set of graceful female hands skillfully and dynamically move that sand to create another completely different image before our very eyes (a vase of flowers.) Slight of hand. Simple. Elagant. Unlike anything else out there. Have you seen it? Does it move you?

Not sure where this belongs but as the forum title also mentioned *little screen related things* and I'm on a 12" powerbook I think it might fit just fine here Not sure of this is "old" stuff but I had never seen anything like this and was quite impressed: StumbleVideo

In case you guys weren't aware...http://www.nytimes.com/2008/07/07/arts/television/07arts-THECOSTELLOS_BRF.html. Looks like it could be interesting.

firefly coming to blu-ray

My amazon gold box shows: Amazon.com: Deadwood: The Complete Seasons 1-3: Michael Almereyda, Timothy Van Patten: Movies & TV $90 for all of Deadwood. Too bad I don't have a spare $90

New season starts tonight on Spike. First three hours of new fights and then season premier of "Ultimate fighter" Just a reminder in case any MMA fans forgot.

Anyone else love this show as much as I do? Solid story, great characters and all the conspiracies and suspense you could want. I hope CBS will pick it up for a full season next year as I really think it's one of the best shows on TV.

The first part of the film is being premiered in the UK on "Sky one" 6pm this Sunday with the second part showing the next day, theoretically it'll be appearing more widely shortly after that. http://www.skyoneonline.co.uk/tcom/ The effects look good, particularly the luggage so I'm looking forward to watching it

While I was waiting for this to air, I have to admit, I didn't go in with much in the way of expectations. But I have to say... I enjoyed the hell out of the premier. Things I liked: * Summer Glau as Cameron * The rest of the cast * Starting it a few years after T2 * How they got to current day * Did I mention Summer Glau? Things I didn't like: * The horrible tatoo cover-up on Lena Headey's arms and back * The stupid "Class Dismissed" line There was lots of action, the acting was solid throughout and the story could be interesting. So it's definitely got my attention for the next few episodes, and considering the lack of new TV out there, it will have to get…

Does anyone else watch this show? My friend pointed me to it and I got hooked. Watched 1st season and all the episodes from this season in a couple of days. Great story, good writing, and overall very enjoyable show.

The series "Flash Gordon" kicks off tonight at 8pm on sci-fi channel in the UK http://www.scifi.co.uk/flashgordon/ I'll likely watch it when it repeats later in the week

I'm finding this fun - anyone else watching the series ? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shaun_the_Sheep

I somehow doubt it's going to be off the island, if it is the show loses a lot of the mystery it had going.

In the same vein as the Movie and Music Lyric threads. Series: Red Dwarf Episode: Stasis leak Rimmer: Now kindly cluck off, before I extract your gibblets, and shove a large seasoned onion between the lips you never kiss with. One of my favourite tv shows for dialogue, peruse these to see what I mean. http://www.freewebs.com/reddwarfquotes/main.htm http://www.theninemuses.net/quotes/reddwarf.html

I thought last nights Criminal Minds was fantastic, the ending was really good I didn't quite see it coming. Am I the only who has enjoyed the season more than the previous ones now that Mandy Patinkin is gone?

I like that group "A Fine Frenzy". Just recently I saw the lead singer on Ghost Whisper. She was on CSI NY just a couple of months ago. It's neat to see her have 2 careers going. Thought I share if anyone was a fan of that group as well . Happy Holidays all

Anyone else catch the new Tim and Eric that was on the 18th. Absolute comedy genius, all 15 minutes of it. I had to watch the new Casey and his Brother about 5 times in a row to get it out of my system, the poop tube skit was also hilarious. What say you Head-Case members? PRO-TIP: You can watch it at AdultSwim.com if you missed it.
