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.

We have a complicated relationship with Dollhouse. We (husband and I) have been watching faithfully since the first two eps (we watched on Fox on Demand). We are interested in where it's gonna go. I am really rooting for Echo to go all alpha all over them (tho a bit less bloody would be nice) and I like the way they are developing back motivations for Ballard and Bosslady and I esp. liked what happened with Dominic in the most recent ep. I think that the Actives clearly have a lot more going on than anyone has a handle on -- I just loved when Echo lay down in the chair and VOLUNTEERED to become a spy to protect -- not really the dollhouse -- but her friends and herself. So I watch mainly to cheer for Echo.
