My current TV thoughts
May. 3rd, 2004 09:06 amIn no particular order:
- I'm sure going to miss Tech TV. They are going to be sucked into G4 which is a gaming channel and, I suspect, my favorite shows will be gone. On the up side, it's going to save me $6 a month. This is the extra cable charge I pay to get Tech TV. It appears that G4 does not cost extra.
- There was a
NBC(?)ABC (Thanks,
tbone!) show on for about 4 episodes last March - The D.A. I watched a couple and Tivo'd the others. They yanked it after 4. Last night I watched one of the Tivo'd episodes. They shouldn't have yanked it. - No one liked Law & Order Special Victims Unit but me. I really liked the character Iced Tea played and Munch and the rest. It had really as good or better cast than regular L&O. And now... it's gone.
- But the new, Nip/Tuck is a month away... Bravo has been airing the first season and I've been Tivo'ing them. I'm set for a Nip/Tuck marathon.
- And a Shield marathon, except I think I may have missed one.
- I'm so ready for Friends to be over. I remember now how they crushed Mash into a pulp, and beat the bejesus out of Cheers and pounded Seinfeld into submission. I like closure as much as the next guy but please....
- Fox is starting six new shows soon. I love not waiting until September. I wish they sounded more interesting. But, one or two of them sound like they might not suck.
- I still think Vicar of Dibley is hilarous. They've started showing it again on BBC America and I've recorded a bunch of them. I think I've pretty much seen all of them but some are so funny that they must be seen several times. Dawn French at her best.
- I've had enough of Building Character. I think I've seen all of the episodes of This Small Space but now
fj has me hooked now on Home to Go. Although Peter Felico is very annoying.
