Ive Made A Huge Mistake

Ok, TV shows, of late I’ve started watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer. It’s amazing, it’s the right combination of Cheesiness (which this show has a lot of), some drama and Whedon humor. One of my favorite moments is the first episode of season 4. The Freshman. Buffy’s first day at college, she walks into her room and sees her roommate for the first time. She looks decent enough a little jumpy that can be attributed to the nervousness or excitement. The roommate lets out a sigh of relief “I am really glad they put me someone cool, I can tell you’re someone cool.” Then she proceeds to putting a Celine Deon poster on the wall ‘I can just tell this year is going to be SUPERFUN”. Anyone who has waltz into their dorm freshman year wondering what their roommate is going to be like can relate to this and THANK THE GODS mine did not put up a Celine Deon poster. Although the episode did get Cher stuck in my head (she kept playing it) which I then proceeded to sing loudly for my flat mate. High Fives all round. *SPOILER ALERT* She turns out to be a demon so it’s ok. The Celine Deon listening entity is a demon. YEAY, the human race is saved. Oh and there’s this one time Spike and Willow have that conversation, “It happens to every guy, maybe you were trying too hard…..” Its AWESOME watch it! The final few months of the semester there’s a lot of work so Buffy has been playing non-stop on my second monitor. I’m still watching the rest of Season 4.

If you want to see what I’ve been working on you can head on over to my Vimeo page (link on the left) there’s only one up from this semester and I’m not really happy with it, but I’ll keep putting up new ones, there’s a 500mb limit a week so it might take a while to get them all up, there’s like 4-5 videos.

In other TV show news, one of my all time favorite shows Dexter seems to be slipping, this season is pretty crappy compared to the first two which were really really good. Miguel Prado, the pregnancy, all pretty crappy, the first two seasons had an over arching story, this one seems to be a little more hap hazard and less thought out. The first and second season were based off books so maybe that’s what is different. I tried reading Darkly Dreaming Dexter but the prose was way too flowery for my taste. Let’s hope it fixes itself over the next few episodes, they’ve already aired but I haven’t gotten around to watching them. Another TV show I like has changed, thankfully for the better, Prison Break. The first two seasons were good TV, the third was pure garbage like toxic waste falling on little bunnies and not giving them super powers. The fourth and current season seems to be going in the right direction. 6 more episodes are going to air in April (I think). They have added two more hours to this season and signs are pointing to the show is ending which is a good thing. End it properly; don’t drag out something good till it ends up like season 8 of That ’70s Show. 30 Rock is still awesome, OOOH andddd FLIGHT OF THE CHONCORDS season 2!!!! Lost starts up again in Jan as does Damages. Damages was one of those shows that sneaks up on you and bites your ass, and somehow you like it… it’s very confusing. I went out on a limb and bought the first season on Blu-ray. Turns out it was really good. I took it home with me and my parents liked it too. It’s intelligent, the acting is superb and I like it. It’s a law drama thing and it deals with a single case over the course of the season. There’s a whole lot more to talk about and I have some work to get done. On the bright side there’s a 24 hours plane ride and I can maybe get to writing a review of a show. Maybe Arrested Development.
