My TV watching schedule is pretty sideways. I’m far from a television junkie, and in fact the reality TV infested fare of American TV these days actually depresses me. I’ve never had any desire to watch other people become pop stars or good dancers, and have enough going on in my own life to give a crap about other fake reality TV “stars” and their drama.
Typically I’m a fan of 60 minute drama or adventure shows, and in the past few years it seems like a transition has been made from the 30 minute sitcom to the more intense drama or suspense show (probably thanks mostly to shows like Lost). Well, suffice it to say, when new shows are announced, I’m rarely impressed…but that’s changed a bit this year.
I don’t watch much on NBC at all, but they’re actually putting out 3 shows that look at least somewhat entertaining.

Once upon a time in the ought-90’s animation studios took a somewhat different approach to your typical cartoon production. Slowly the more common line-art form of standard animation was pushed aside and the BRAND NEW WORLD of computerized animation was brought to the forefront. Mainframe was by far the leader in this clubhouse, producing the fantastic Reboot and Beast Wars animated series that garnered strong fan support and critical acclaim.
This is hilarious… just a few months ago I posted about Marvel TV shows and I mentioned the immortal Japanese Spider-Man series, and even showcased the introduction to the overseas production. Well, Marvel.com has started posting episodes of the Japanese show, and promises a new episode every Thursday. Best part is, the shows have subtitles, so for the first time I can actually tell what the hell is going on. Classic!

Okay, confession time. No, I’m not a wannabe goth girl, and in fact I’m a nearly 35 year old father, and yes, I’m a Joss Whedon fan. I liked Buffy, I LOVED Angel, Firefly rocked my world, and Serenity was darn near perfect cinema. Don’t even get me started on Dr. Horrible…
All right, so I’m not even coming up with a new title this time. Shoot me.
Truth is, things have been pretty tough in my corner of the world lately, at least financially. I lost my Internet access for close to two months, and I apologize for my absence. Of cours, since everyone thinks that Justin rights my articles except for me and (sometimes) Justin, I won’t waste too much time on a subject that’s so maudlin.
Battlestar Galactica captured my attention when it first started and hasn’t really let go since. I faltered a bit during Season 3, but this lead up to Season 4 has re-ignited my love of this series, and I’m getting antsy waiting for 10:00pm tonight!
