There’s been a lot of TV watching going on the last couple of weeks.<\/p>\n
Dexter<\/b>
\nBreaking Bad<\/b>
\nEntourage<\/b>
\nThe Office (US)<\/b>
\nThe Riches<\/b>
\nIn Treatment<\/b>
\nHouse MD<\/b>
\nLittle Britain USA<\/b>
\n30 Rock<\/b>
\nPushing Daisies<\/b><\/p>\n
Some really great television IMHO. Fantastic shows, much thanks to FOXTEL’s Showcase channel for introducing us to many of these. So many US shows, so many HBO shows! What’s going on?<\/p>\n
It’s really disappointing that The Riches<\/b> looks like it’s not going to be continued, with everything being left completely up in the air at the end of a very short season 2, writers strike and all that. Breaking Bad<\/b> has been awesome, looking forward to more in 2009. I’m quite impressed with In Treatment<\/b> so far, which has just started, great intensity.<\/p>\n
Very happy that Dexter<\/b> is back in action. Entourage<\/b> is rocking again, Ari owns! He was on fire in the first episode of season 5. Little Britain USA<\/b> has got a few laughs, more of the same, but with a US focus and accents. I think it’s been dumbed down a lot for America, the obvious ‘you should laugh here\/this is the funny bit’ canned laughter is a bit much. <\/p>\n
More 30 Rock<\/b> coming in late October, woo Liz Lemon! I’ve decided I actually like the US version of The Office<\/b> better than the original UK one now, more laughs, less cringe. I hope Wilson hasn’t left House MD<\/b>. The P.I. looks like he’s going to become a regular new character.<\/p>\n
Pushing Daisies<\/b> is creepy and cute, and feels\/looks like a Tim Burton movie. The narration reminds me a bit of the original TV series of The Hitchhiker’s Guide To The Galaxy.<\/p>\n
I’ve never had this many interesting\/entertaining TV shows to watch all at the same time, ever in my life before! I’m loving that technology allows me to watch them when I choose to.<\/p>\n
