I'm enjoying it, S2 was just meh :| , will hopefully finish S5 this weekend.

Started with Vampire Diaries S3 last nite, quite epic, it's becoming a bit more gruesome like True blood, me like :twisted:

:lol: Sounds interesting ADT.

I'm currently jumping around between a bunch of older series, and some new ones.
Busy with:
The Mentalist
The Vampire Diaries
X-Men (2011)
Lost girl

Then also started watching Dark Angel last night- quite a challenge to get hold of, it turned out- too bad it's only 2 seasons :(

Uhm, Well, seems to be a new X-Men series, not in the old fasion- more anime-like. Yet another spin-off. Will see if I can link to info.

Edit: Closest I could get to any useful info: [http://thetvdb.com/?tab=series&id=236061]Linky[/url]

Oh, and I forgot. There's also Wolverine and the X-Men that is now also available as a tv series. :D


edit2: replaced linky

On the other hand, Alphas became another version of Heroes. Alphas is an intriguing series. It has some of the worst acting I have ever seen, and yet the stories are reasonably entertaining.

There is one particular opening scene in the first season of Alphas. I think it's <*checks tv.com*> Season 1 Episode 5. It is quite possibly the most horrendous piece of acting I have ever seen--a truly cringeworthy moment.

Agreed, I watched all episodes without real complaint; merely stuttered moments of amazement at the aforementioned talentlessness. It's still a sight better than the Sunday night gospel singing shows on SABC 1.

What? Of course you have to. It makes this other stuff seem like Days of our Lives. It can be quite vulgar though.
