I’m starting to watch Detective Conan, with almost 550 eps this should keep me occupied for a while…

Hahahaha, except I don’t have glasses… yet.

I think that it’s because they didn’t get the viewers that they wanted. Of course, ABC barely promoted it at all. And in the US (I don’t know where you are) we can’t even watch past episode 8 (they say what Beta is in episode 9) until ABC decides to air the rest, which they probably won’t. And the Canadian and British websites won’t let you watch videos unless you live there. And the US websites can’t get the unaired episodes. I HATE network execs. They never give anything a chance. I just know that it’s gone for sure because they tore down the sets.

Started Dexter but so far it’s not terrifically interesting. D:

JUST AS PLANNED

A potato chip, you say?

White Collar is great.

I wanted to see that, but didn’t know if it was worth it.

BLASPHEMY

Sorry man. I mean, it’s a bit funny and kind of interesting and pretty gory and all, but there’s something lacking there. Maybe I haven’t watched enough. I’ll get back to you when I finish season 1. If I’m not impressed by then, that will be the end of it.

“I’ll take a potato chip. AND EAT IT!”

Hee hee, Light is so amazingly awesome. And L is just MAGNIFICENT. And Teru’s just plain HOTT. And Mello looks like a girl, but he has a scar, so now he’s RUGGED. And I’m done now. :D

SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!

I just finished watching the entire series on youtube and oh my God, MELLO FREAKING Now how is that fair AT ALL?! I LOVE HIM! SO MUCH! And then Light too! What is this! All my favorite characters LIKE L! WHY DID HE HAVE TO?! IT’S NOT FAIR! It’s like Draco ten times over! starts weeping hysterically It may take me a long while to get over their deaths. ;.;

Wow. Well that was fun! :D

Good luck with those 5 seasons worth of unexplained plot points.

@RVL: But if none of that happen, we wouldn’t have such awesome code as LADIES, MELODIES, and DADDIES.

I’ve been rewatching some episodes of Daria on YouTube. And this show is just pure win.

After the first season it pretty much just gets like Beavis and Butthead. =/

What I mean is it kind of just gets old, silly and pointless.

I arbitrarily started watching Veronica Mars this week, and it’s pretty good so far. I’m about halfway through the first season now.

This week’s Dexter ep lead to a renewed appreciation of how good that show is of manipulating my expectations as a viewer. It’s like they jingle their keys in one direction to get me to look, and then sucker-punch me when I do.

You probably should, Spanman.

Veronica Mars is now MAI WAIFU

I gave up on Lost before the end of S1. But occasionally stumbled through S2.

Reconfirming my lack of love for JJ Abrams.

But I don’t really give a shit about the characters so no tears from me.

See, I used to care about them, but then they all got really whiney and devoid of interesting personalities, so I no longer like them, except Sawyer. Sawyer is an ass, but he knows that he’s an ass, and he’s okay with that. He doesn’t whine endlessly about how unfair and aweful everything is. Also, it seems like they’re just adding random crap to the show now, so it kind of annoys me now, though I will pay meager attention to the last season.

^^Well, the crap gets more random and ridiculous as the show goes on. I think I liked seasons one and two, and then it got all facepalmish. What random crap are they adding in the second season, so I have a reference as to what’s going on?

I have discovered Robin Hood. My sister and I are at odds over Robin’s and Guy’s personality. I say he is a misunderstood but well-meaning guy who works for a sadistic creep. She says he’s an evil lunatic who works for a sadistic creep.

I normally don’t pull a DILP, but here it is irresistible and encouraged by the writers.

Look how cute he is! (Ignore the caption, I have no idea what it means)

I still think Armitage would have been good as the Hound.

What’s a DILP?

A Draco In Leather Pants.

Guy of Gisborne is written as an anti-villain, but he does have his villainous moments, which I ignore with the force of an Edward fangirl facing stalker accusations against Edward.

I want to go back and watch all of the Dexter seasons because I have only paid minor attention to very few episodes, but all of those were enjoyable.

I keep watching Merlin and waiting and waiting for everyone to figure out who he really is, or at least for someone somewhere to get the girl and be happy, and then it never happens, and I become more and more displeased. >=(

Anna.

I quit Fast Forward too, a bit to police procedural and not enough exploring the philosophy behind people finding out the future. But maybe I’m proved wrong.

(I’m surprised I haven’t barged participated in this topic yet!!)

Just watched FMA Brotherhood Ep 32, so far, so awesome (its sheer awesomeness on toast)
Recently finished Code Geass (First season was awesome and pretty much ‘brilliant’, the 2nd season on the other hand, was dull, fanservice-y and the plot lovingly insisted on bouncing around, the finale made watching it worth my time though)
Just started Trigun (so far so awesome, so excessively crazy O_o)

Yes, I am an anime fan atic

The new FMA is starting to interest me more, since they’re now past the point where I stopped reading the manga.

I don’t know what you expected from Geass though. It was always silly.

No, no, no.

ARRU HAIRU BURITANNNYAAA

Hehe, Yeah i agree CG’s plot was pretty silly, but I enjoyed the first season quite a bit (I’m a fan of the sit-at-the-back-and-scheme characters), it kept me gripped quite well, and also i loved the (diabolic) twists in the story (S2 failed considerably at this, and don’t forget the bouncing plot!)

And I’m a fan of ‘anyone can die’
[also, how do i link to other sites in text (like the red text which is but a link)]

The UK version of The Office was so terrible that I didn’t make it past 5 minutes.

TESTING!=

I’m completely sure the UK one came out first.

Also, that’s pretty much the point, Willow. Most of the characters are unpleasant in one way or another. That said, I started right at Season 2, so I can’t really defend it. It’s still one of my favorite shows, though.

Semi-related, but I like Community more every week.

Yeah I am loving Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood. Best anime adaption of a manga ever. Well out of all the animeI’ve seen, which I guess isn’t all that much… I’m trying to get through tons of manga and anime but it takes a while. But yeah the original anime series of Fullmetal Alchemist sucked major ass.

Wow all you don’t seem to like Code Geass much. Several of my friends are all obsessed with it thinking it’s the best anime series ever. And they think it improved in season 2… Well I thought the entire series was pretty good, but I didn’t care enough about the characters and didn’t understand everything that was going on sometimes. I think it had a pretty satisfying ending. I was never a big fan of the whole geass powers thing. I didn’t really get why they should exist. Code Geass reminded me so much of Death Note. Am I the only one who thinks this? Lelouch and Light are basically the same person, cept Lelouch redeems himself while Light is an evil bastard right till the end.

Lelouch and Light seem similar at first glance, but they aren’t really as you get into the characters. At his core, Lelouch is a pretty decent person who does care about the people around him. Light is just a psychopath regardless of his moral delusions or fans’ rationalizations and excuse-making.

Well, it had Kallen in various fanservicey costumes/suggestive poses, Villeta in a preposterous swimsuit, and gratuitous closeups on CC’s fat ass(thanks to Pizza Hut, no doubt) in pretty much every other scene she was in.

Yeah, there were quite a few similarities beyond the memory wipes, but they’re the sort of things that come from having Chessmaster-style protagonists.

Did you know that a number of props from BBC stuff are being auctioned off on eBay in support of Children In Need?
If you have c. £500-1000 to spare, you could get your hands on Merlin’s scarf or Arthur’s armour!
Or indeed Jeremy Clarkson’s (signed) jeans, or one of a number of cuddly Pudseys signed by people.

Also, first scene of End Of Time, the next Doctor Who special, is being shown tonight, along with all the typical joviality.

OH EH GEE DOCTOR WHO SCENE.

I am so glad I watched The Waters of Mars this morning, otherwise it would not have made as much sense and GAH

I’ve been thinking of trying to get my brother to watch Avatar, but some of the pacing and “lesson” episodes might turn him off to it. Plus he might think somebody other than Azula is the best character, in which case I’ll have to punch him in the ear.

Azula, ftw. :D

I’m shocked at just how unpleasant John Lithgow is lately on Dexter. Granted, my earliest memories of him are from Third Rock, so it’s a pretty big shift, but I think I’d find him just as unsettling even if I didn’t have those old impressions.

That said:

Yesterday’s episode was just… o_O

The finger-breaking was what really got me, especially considering how his son managed to stifle his scream during it. That’d be really hard to suppress given how much that would hurt, so I suppose that means it’s something that’s happened before enough for him to handle it.

The whole thing was chilling, but Dexter’s reactions show just how human he’s become since the series started. Yeah, I love this show as much now as I ever have.

Now and Then, Here and There’s airing right now. For anyone seeing it for the first time, prepare for the most depressing anime ever that isn’t named Grave of the Fireflies.

Merlin only gets more and more maddening. His dumb little fling with that cat-bird chick was pretty much the last straw.

Yeah. It’s not quite the asspull it seems.

I have one more .rar before I can watch the latest episode. Looking forward to it.
