I would mention a series I recently started watching, but I think a lot of you would want to mock me and question my masculinity :P

And you think we'd question your masculinity over that? It's obvious you don't have any. :D ;)

@KK - you and I definitely have different tastes.

@DS - perhaps it is a phase. OR a cult thing. It should pass. But then I watch cartoons too - so perhaps you should see someone about it. No I do not watch ponies - I watch Sponge Bob, Phineas and Ferb, Pinky and the Brain, etc...

So last night I started watching Teen Wolf. I loved the Michael J Fox movie as a kid. Watched the first two episodes last night. I think it has some potential (in a Smallville-ish kind of way), but at the same time it could possibly turn into Twilight: The TV Series.

Falling Skies premiers at the end of this month. It looks like it has some potential. We shall have to wait and see.

Man, Firefly's characters are gorram cheesy. :? And seriously, couldn't they think up better bogeymen than those reavers? I'm on episode 3. It's going to have to improve drastically to be worthy of its praise.

Then again, since my main criticism of the show is the incredible cheese, perhaps it's the show that all the others copied from. That would make my criticism invalid.

I don't watch a lot of television, mainly because I can't stick to schedules. Do you know about the Serenity movie?

Oh yes, this! It can be a bit much at times, but it is very good.

Out of the series at the moment. Still haven't watched season 4 of Heroes or the first season of The Event. Also awaiting season 7 of Supernatural.

Started watching Season 8 of Entourage (the last season), and it's alright, but just not what it used to be...

So last night I started watching a series called "Ringer" with Sarah Michelle Gellar. After one episode, I reckon it can go either way. It can either become spellbinding, or it can turn into another nighttime, weekly soap. Watch this space.
