I watch entirely too much tv. Right now I am finally settling in to watch Lost...the show I have been assured is right up my alley. So far I have watched the first season and about 8 episodes of season 2. I still don't really care about the Others, but I have to admit the show does a good job of getting you involved in the backstories of the characters as well as watching how they develop relationships while marooned. However, when my biggest question is how does Kate end up choosing Sawyer (or so I hear), I guess I really could take or leave the show.
However, I am anxiously awaiting word on whether or not Eli Stone gets renewed. I started watching out boredom. I will admit it. However, it has morphed into the show I can't wait to watch. There is just something to earnest about Eli and his potential prophet status. I find some of the characters annoying, but the writers have even managed to humanize them as well. I had no idea they could soften the edges of the "Dowd" or turn Maggie into a character that didn't make me cringe every time she showed up on screen. And the cast is fantastic. I love Jonny Lee Miller. I don't know that I have ever seen him in anything other than Eli Stone or Hackers, but whatever he was doing in between was well worth it. He is fantastic. And Victor Garber can do no wrong. I really hope that this show gets a chance to show us the rest of Eli's journey. They have given us enough clues about the future that if it doesn't return, I won't be bitter...Just grateful that I got to see the few episodes that exist. I am not a terribly religious person, but I don't feel I am being beaten over the head with a Bible. I just feel like I am being challenged to consider things from another perspective...and that is what good television does...actually make you think instead of just absorb...
Hello!
I know it's been entirely too long, but as some of you know I have been hanging out at LJ much more than this site recently. If you want my LJ just ask. The reason for this post you ask? Well...XF2 has finally been anounced!! And to my great relieve it's going to be with David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson!! Funny thing is just one day before I read the happy news I had finally completely given up on ever seeing new XF ever again.
Erm...maybe I should have done that sooner? Either way, I feel like I deserved this, because major crap has happened to me this week! OK relative ofcourse, but still...I have been sick at home all week with an upper respiratory trackt infection with ear nose and throat problems and to top it off some problems with my balance (cos of earprobs)
and because I wasnt feeling **** enough, the pc gremlins kicked in and made my HD go crash again. Yeah cos that didnt happen to me just 2 months ago! grrrr!!
Anyway...YAY XF2!!!
