September 16, 200718 yr I'm watching the first season of Buffy right now on my new high-def TV right now. As if this show didn't look AMAZING in standard definition, now it just looks too good for words. Just kidding of course, this season still looks like fried hell but now with more video noise from upscaling the 480p. It's still my favorite season of bufy.
September 16, 200718 yr The first season really did have such a great balance of humor, heart and action. Best. Show. Ever.
September 16, 200718 yr The first season really did have such a great balance of humor, heart and action. Best. Show. Ever. fuck yeah it was (well, maybe 6 Feet Under was a little better... ). plus, it spawned one of my reference CDs, Once More With Feeling I thought I'd get razzed for admitting that I love buffy but I suppose we're all nerds of a feather.
September 16, 200718 yr finished The Wire season 1. Omar might be my favorite black homosexual djarum clove smoking hitman/armed robber character of all time.
September 16, 200718 yr dude, that sounds like a British Buffy. do i needs to get it?It's plagued with problems. Actors jumping ship; the villain is downright boring (all he does is the tall dark and gaysome brooding thing that Angel makes fun of so well); oh, and there is just way too many actual tears. That said, I just watched 10 episodes (the entire first box) in about 24 hours. The writers did manage to keep things moving along. And there's just something about the British where they just excel at snarkiness. So I'd say it's more like British Buffy meets Charmed with a little Bewitched thrown in. There's very little "teh funneh" thrown in -- at least, not out-and-out Joss Whedon funny, more understated "Dr. Who" funny. To synopsize: a qualified thumbs-up.
September 17, 200718 yr [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LNVYWJOEy9A]Adventure Time[/ame] best animation short, period

You had me at Buffy, downloading Season 1 now. Gotta find something since those cocksuckers canceled Deadwood.
September 17, 200718 yr Gotta find something since those cocksuckers canceled Deadwood. Snap! You just gave them the deadwood treatment!
September 17, 200718 yr seriously, anyone looking for more HBO goodness check out The Wire. I've got season 2 queued up and ready to roll, this show is addictive.

September 17, 200718 yr You had me at Buffy, downloading Season 1 now. Gotta find something since those cocksuckers canceled Deadwood.Well, just for the record, it ain't Buffy. There's more soap opera than that.
September 17, 200718 yr Goddamn stupid fucking timeout. Can we at least raise it to 6 minutes?You had me at Buffy, downloading Season 1 now. Gotta find something since those cocksuckers canceled Deadwood.Well, just for the record, it ain't Buffy. There's more soap opera to it than that. But it's still good. I've heard good things about Veronica Mars. Joss Whedon liked it. Haven't seen it myself yet. Also, going back a bit for a completely different show, I really liked Sports Night. Just superb writing. Just from a "good shows to watch" perspective. And if you want to go way back, Max Headroom.
September 18, 200718 yr Tabula Rasa I liked that episode too. The 6th season was a little too silly and predictable for me but that episode cracked me up. My roommate has every episode of buffy and angel on DVD. I might just check that episode out.
September 19, 200718 yr ah, cool. lots of good shows restarting this season, i can't wait. i guess i'm a tv whore \ what are you looking forward to?
