dr. who

dr. who continues to impress me. the last episode i saw was about where rose and the doctor travel to the end of the world. as they were preparing to watch the earth meet its demise, they decided to listen to one of the planet’s classic songs: britney spears’ toxic!

that was just hilarious.

i really do like the show, though.

pacey, dawson, and joey

a little while ago jenny was telling me about how why she truly thought that pacey was a better boyfriend than dawson. i’ve always felt that dawson and joey should have ended up together, but alas, such was not the case.

jenny tells me that the reason why so many girls probably tend to love pacey as the boyfriend more so than dawson is because he loved joey the way that all girls want to be loved. pacey was completely devoted to joey. he loved her so profoundly and unconditionally and it is that kind of love that girls can look for in a boyfriend.

on the other hand, as a guy, i feel that pacey isn’t worthy of someone like joey and instead dawson should be with joey because he’s the stand up guy with the great vision and has always been able to give joey what she needed most. sure pacey loved her and all, but he has always had self-confidence issues. he always felt that he was not good enough for her and that was his detriment.

anyhow, i still think joey should have ended up with dawson.

blind justice

i just started watching blind justice. it’s a show about a homocide detective losing his vision and coming back to work as a cop to solve crimes. it is actually kind of cool and reminds me just a little bit of daredevil.

i recommend checking it out if you’ve got time. you don’t really see too many shows with good writing. i don’t like the whole wife-subplot in the movie, it seems sort of forced, uncomfortable, and overused. but aside from that i like it a lot.

dr. who

i cannot believe that dr. who is being start up again. i was never a real big fan of the show growing up, but i watched the series premiere and i have to say that it is actually quite good. i never really apprecitated the british humour but it’s actually quite good. i’m looking forward to watching more episodes.

i also like how everyone has an english accent in the show…because, you know, it’s a british show. =P

i don’t want to wait

after talking to my [url=http://jenny.ocliw.com/journal/]good friend jenny[/url] about dawson’s creek and debating whether dawson or pacey was the better boyfriend for joey, i got this wave of nostalgia sweep over me and so i promptly went to netflix and reordered my queue so that the next set of DVDs i get are the complete set of dawson’s creek DVDs seasons 1-4. i figure it should only take me about 3 or 4 weeks to get the series from them….man…3 DVDs at a time. that’s so slow! i’m tempted to go join blockbuster’s freedom pass for movie rentals to get it all in one shot, but i think i may be dawson’d out if i do so.

ahhh, to have the friends back in my life again…dawson…joey…andie, oh we cannot forget about andie.

I don’t want to wait
For our lives to be over
I want to know right now
What will it be?
I don’t want to wait
For our lives to be over
Will it be yes or will it be sorry?

speaking of tv

i have recorded all 10 episodes of 24, but i have yet to see any of them. there’s a part of me that really wonders if the show is any good. i haven’t seen the previous seasons, so it’s hard for me to really get into it. i don’t know why i’ve been so reluctant to watch the show, or why i’ve been so diligent in recording them, but i think i’m going to finally take the plunge and watch it.

i hope it’s worth it!

veronica mars

i really do love this show. by far the best UPN show on TV right now. compared to the other crap that they are showing, it’s actually some wonder that they managed to get a show. the sad thing is that it appears that the show isn’t doing very well in ratings. i think that is in large part due to the fact that it is on UPN.

but anyway, the show has some really amazing writing and great acting, especially from its title character played by kristen bell, who i am completely infatuated with. the writing is witty, charming, and reminds me of the best of buffy and angel.

i really do hope that the show gets the audience that it deserves and i hope that it stays on the air. i’m really looking forward to the rest of the season.

if you haven’t seen it, go check it out!

desperate housewives

did anyone watch the episode last night where gabrielle kissed the still-closeted gay boy to help him figure out if he was indeed gay?

is it considered cheating if you kiss someone who is gay, but of the opposite sex, and you are straight? or vice versa?

cuts

it’s no secret that UPN has really suffered in the network wars and they haven’t really produced any great hits recently, with the exception of VERONICA MARS, which if you haven’t seen…you just haven’t seen good television.

but i digress, yesterday debuted the pilot of [url=http://www.upn.com/shows/cuts/index.shtml]cuts[/url] starring shannon elizabeth. you would think that a movie star going from the big screen to the boob tube would accept a role in a great tv show, but this was truly disappointing. the only thing that this episode proved to me was that shannon elizabeth is still hot.

aside from that, it’s been some bad cheesy lines with dull, tired humor. i want to say that i want this show to get better, but it’s corny, lame, and most of all boring.

oh well, i guess that’s one show i can cross off my list of shows to watch.

signs of an addict

i think you know you are in trouble when you realize that today is wednesday and the first thought that comes to your head is:

oh shoot, i have to watch alias, jack and bobby, lost, smallville, and the west wing tonight! damn wednesdays!

but then after a moment of reflection you realize that yesterday you had to watch committed, house, veronica mars, and gilmore girls…all of which you missed…which means that you are now 4 shows behind plus today’s show.

but then after another moment of thought you realize that tomorrow is thursday. tomorrow is another bad day with CSI, joey, point pleasant, will & grace, and without a trace…

and so after all of this thought, i’ve decided to stop watching the apprentice. whew. now i finally have opened up some time to watch me some TV!

just in time for fridays, because that is when i have to watch andromeda, joan of arcadia, johnny zero, medical investigation, monk, numb3rs, enterprise, stargate atlantis, stargate sg-1, and maybe third watch. maybe i really should drop numb3rs (which i think is lame) and johnny zero (which is also lame).

yeah…i’m not an addict, really.
