Television!

[ladyjanelly]

I think I"m at that point in the pregnancy where having cable TV would be a good thing.  I just want to lay on the couch and watch whatever comes on.  Like--a 6 hr marathon of 10 year old ER episodes.  Or to cry over Animal Cops.  Three episodes of NYPD Blue every day.  I remember these things from last time we had cable (like 4 yrs ago?)

Anyway, actually going through titles and stuff and deciding that I want to watch stuff on Hulu is nowhere as relaxing but yeah. Been watching a lot of TV these days.

Life--
Holy crap.  The season finale.  Tell me somebody else saw this?  Charlie's "How I survived 12 years in prison" has got to be the best 12 seconds of tv I've seen in a loooong time.  Oh, hell yeah..

 .Dollhouse ep 9
Wow.  I sort of hated the first episode of this that I saw (I think it was #3, the one with the outdoorsman guy?) but around ep 6, people on my flist started buzzing about it and Ihad nothing better to do so I went and watched all that were still available from Hulu (Still haven't seen 1&2).  9 just blew me away, I can't remember seeing that many revelations in a single episode and having them all fit in a cohesive and exciting way before.  
 
T:SCC season finale
I dunno.  It wasn't quite as smooth as it could have been or something.  I need to watch it again and see if I can figure out what I feel about it..

Doctor Who
Okay, it was fun, but somewhat lacking in substance.
Unless later it turns out that the manta-ray thingies are constructed by some evil force because seriously, I don't see how they evolved.  But as a weapon?  They're awesome..

Kings
How can a show this boring be so hard to look away from?  I'm not kidding.  I think part of the appeal is that the hubby and I just watched a documentary on the biblical David and wow.  Not a nice guy.  We keep waiting for this one to start crucifying the king's young grandsons.

I think I watched Life's 12 seconds 10 times. The perfect end to the season. See, Reese, he did have a plan to get out of that SUV. And Ted's 'Gone to Spain' sticky note? Classic.

I have another show for you. Castle, with Nathan Fillon from Firefly. He's a writer who pairs up with an NYPD detective after a series of murders based off murders in his books. He's charming and funny, she's hard-boiled and resistant - great stuff. Mondays on ABC, back eps available on Hulu (or so I'm told).
