I'd forgotten how funny the "Stimpy's Pregnant" episode of Ren and Stimpy's Lost Episodes was. I've just almost haemorrhaged laughing. |

Okay - a bit too early for that - i really enjoyed S1 of Dexter , theres a lot going on and the way they have everything all connecting works really well , personally i'd watch S1 and then go to something else before going on to the later Seasons. They all have an overarching theme and they have managed to keep the quality up all the way through to the end of S4 - although there are a few poor episodes along the way (Season 4 won a number of awards at the last Emmy's and they have commited to Season 5) |

Recent/current stuffs: Dollhouse. Thought it ended poorly. Cramming it all in was an impossible task but in the end they went all Battlestar/T:SCC and fucked with your trust of the characters. Left Epitath 1 and 2 until yesterday. They were surprisingly good. Smallville. This season has been brilliant. I only really liked Lex Luthor in the previous seasons and more or less hated everyone else. But in this season everything is great. Bigger stories, bigger effects, bigger characters. All the whiney emo characters are gone or much darker. I'm not a comics fan particularly so the impact of certain DC faves turning up is lost on me, but so far it's been a great season. Bones. Finally getting its shit together after some really inconsistent seasons. Funny, clever and interesting. The episode that was basically an advert for Avatar can fuck off though. Fuck off a lot. Glee. It's basically a kid's show with a couple of adult themes. The music is horrible. The vocals are auto-tuned so heavily that every note sounds like a dying Terminator. Every character in it is stupid or completely unlikeable. The butch woman is good though. One scene (a 'diva off' between Neurotic Brunette and Gayer Than Pie) was genuinely terrifying and upsetting (although it wasn't intended to be). Avoid avoid avoid. Family Guy. Still good but overdoing the ironic racism a bit too much now. |

Post subject: | Re: General Purpose US TV thread |
House continues after Easter, Lie to Me is June. They are both mid series though. I guess this is the downside of having the same programme schedule as the states. |

Post subject: | Re: General Purpose US TV thread |
I miss Lie to Me. I was enjoying it more than House by the end of last year. Also, Stargate Universe. They said it'd be back with new episodes in January, and all we're getting is repeats. US TV schedules are crap! |

Post subject: | Re: General Purpose US TV thread |
Recently watched 4 seasons of Desp Housewives to get myself completely up to date with it. It's really good although they're recylcing their plots a little now. Also, just started Burn Notice. The first two eps have been utterly fantastic. It screams 'spy caper of the week' though, so I'm guessing it'll be thin on overall story arc but I'm liking it. Have got a few days leave to use up this month. Will rinse through Generation Kill. |
