NO!

Watch Weeds!


I tend to have two series' on the go at one time.

I still need to finish Season 2 of SFU. :( So much TV, so little time.


Watch Venture Brothers! It's only 25minutes each, and it's very very funny. The perfect counter point to SFU.

After all...you can't have two "clever" dark comedies on the go at the same time. You'd go all preteniously emo on us!

Give it a few episodes. It's when it starts building up the characters/sub plots it gets briliant

(Dr Orpheus is brilliant!)

I know I know. It just feels like a show I'd need to pay 100% attention to, and I my brains completely frizzled atm.

By the way, whats SG-1 Continium? I thought SG1 was finished? Just a special or something?


Second DVD movie (after The Ark of Truth).

AoT wrapped up the Ori storyline, Continium is meant to wrap up the "Ba'al/Gould" storyline.

Avoid it though. It's a complete piffle of a time travel story,


You're wrong! It was awesomeness.

No. You're wrong.

It falls apart at continuity, any attempt at decent temporal mechanics and as a "finale".

Firmly in the "have to use Time Travel to try and make a big story, but has to be time travel so the reset button can be pushed an elimiate OTT specticles used to give story gravitas"

Gravita. It has less gravitas than gravitas.

Hopefully never, it's awful.

I need a new tv show to pick up. I'll be going through Deadwood in the next few days and S3 of The Sopranos but I'ld like something fresh as well.

I'm thinking Veronica Mars. Yes/No?

FFS Sake Herbs. How many times have I told you to watch VM?

Please just do it. It's bloody awesome. Best season long mystery/arc I can think of, lovely acting/emotion. It combines standalone stories, with arcs. And it has totty

Seriously go watch it, but stay away from spoilers.

Also be prepared - Season 2 and 3 aren't quite up to the standard of the first mystery arc.

Do it Herbi, it's one of my favourite shows.

EDIT: Hexx, that pic of Kristen Bell = :wub:

The Logan one, less so.

And Season 2 > Season 1, no matter what Hexx says.

I think Season 2 has a couple of episodes that are amazing.

But the overall arc isn't presented as well as Season 1, and generally the mystery isn't as good.

Yes...do you watch Smallville? The Veronica Mars character is pretty much like Chloe. Pure awesome :)
