Boob Tube Bullets

 Just because. Just for scuzz.

• Gia and I are nearly finished with Season 3 of Friday Night Lights.  The show, awesome by the way, has been renewed for an additional two seasons.  But there is a catch.  They are only going to be available first-run on Direct TV.  They will eventually be shown in reruns on NBC during the summer months, but if we want to watch them as they air we will need Direct TV.  Sucks!
• And I am almost done with my month-long dance with Battlestar Galactica.  I just watched the first episode of the second half of Season 4 (that will make sense to most of you out there).  It's far more awesome than I hoped it would be.  I can't wait to find out what happens next.  This is a great show for the odd few of you who haven't given it a go.  So say we all.
• Season 3 of Mad Men started tonight on AMC.  I haven't seen an episode since the series premiere a few years back, but I think this is the next show that Gia and I are gonna tackle.  So I figured I would plug it into the old DVR for future viewing.  Just in case.  Have I mentioned how hot Christina Hendricks is?
• Do 3 items make up a bullet post?  I don't think so.  I'll fix it...
• Bam!
• Bam!

There.

Brain damage for the masses

The Fall TV season is upon us. God(dess) help us all!

I think I am going to try to pare down my TV viewing as far as I can this season. It leaves me so unfulfilled, and I need to read more anyhows. So I stop using words like "anyhows", ya see.

So this is what I am planning to watch for the upcoming season:

Prison Break - It's really good, even when it seems as if they introduce way too many plot lines and characters in almost every single episode. Frenetic and edgy, it's what TV should be. Fun.

Heroes - but it's going to have to get a lot better. Quickly. There are way too many characters to give a shit about here. Shame, because ten/fifteen years ago I would have given Slyde's right testicle for a TV show about superheroes in the real world. I'm gonna give it 2 or 3 more episodes. So buck the fuck up, Heroes!

NCIS - for those of you who don't know, I have an unhealthy attraction to Ms. Pauley Perrette and this is my only outlet. Forgive me.

Survivor: China - 'natch. I don't think this one will ever get boring with me. Slyde has been trying to get on for years, but they seem to have a quota of just one annoying person from Long Island every season. It's been filled this year by Ashley - the WWE Diva/wrestler.

And that's all I got. Sure, I will probably watch more TV than this in any given week. But it's mostly shows that I don't NEED to watch. Stuff like How I Met Your Mother, Law and Order: SVU and The Office. Oh, and random stuff on The Discovery Channel and The History Channel. All good stuff, but if I miss it...I miss it.

This will all change come January when The Amazing Race and Lost begin, but until then...
