That's a given.

On the finale of Wonderfalls. Even though I knew there was only 13 episodes, part of me wishes there are more to watch. You guys have made good recommendations so far. Arrested Development, Firefly, and Wonderfalls. Any more? =]

Well, if you enjoyed Wonderfalls and haven't seen Dead Like Me, it's a great, if slightly morbid story. It's the same creator, and he also is currently doing Pushing Daisies on ABC. IMO season 1 of Dead Like Me is better than 2, but it's still a very entertaining show. And George is an awesome character. She has some priceless moments in the premier episode.

I watched Dead Like Me while it was aired. My girlfriend at the time turned me on to the show and I loved it. Can't wait for the movie!

So next recommendation!

I have all of Charmed from my friend. Like Buffy and Angel, I stopped watching it 2 or 3 seasons in, so my goal is to finish off the story, lol. But I want to put Charmed on the back burner for now as the recommendations you guys have given have been awesome.

You should buy some kids from amazon to rip your CDs for you.

I'm going to check out Pushing Daises. I thought it was a show that didn't start yet, but checking it up on Wikipedia shows that there are 9 episodes and it's continuing on Oct 1st. =] I'm sure the show is great.

I did not like pushing dasies. imo, it didnt have the humor nor the charm that dead like me had.

[en480c4]

I'd say it had more charm, but less humor. I enjoy it, though, and am looking forward to the new season starting.

You just described my 2008

If you don't mind British comedies, I'd recommend Spaced. I've found it very enjoyable so far. (Finished season 1.)

[Hopstretch]

The first series of Californication on DVD.

Artistic merits yet to be determined, but hooray for boobies.

Do they blow up the sharks?

[deepak]

so, let me get this straight:

there is a zombie loose, let's lock thiese people in a room and not bother to check to see whether the zombie is in there!

That's what I'd do!

No Reservations

Re: 28 weeks later -- yeah, if you didn't like the first one, I don't see as how you'd like that one.

and yeah, the room scene was worse than anything in the first one -- both the plot hole that you pointed out, and how it was filmed...

... but it didn't ruin the movie for me, I still managed to ultimately enjoy it, myself. But I loved the first one.

Really bad Office withdrawal so I started watching season two. Just finished the episode where Todd Packer is introduced

Dwight: Where is the clitoris? On a website it said at the crest of the labia...what does that mean?

[NightWoundsTime]

Just watched the new Robot Chicken. There's a new Voltron skit in there... will become a future reference classic when calling for our own DOTU.

Before that it was Land of the Blind. A bit of an overblown concept about totalitarian governments with references to Iran, North Korea, and I'm sure many other instances in history of one awful government replacing another, that I'm not totally familiar with (other than the general context that all governments are awful so this happens on a daily basis, it would seem). Also completely mixed metaphors involving elephants, which I found annoying. On one hand they are used for their memory. History rewrites itself with each tyrannical leader, only the elephants remember. On the other hand they used the old story about blind men feeling up an elephant and each drawing their own conclusions... thus the name coming from "In the land of the blind, the one eyed man is king". Bonus points if you guessed already that the hero of the story ends up losing an eye. Still and all, good performances from Ralph Fiennes and Donald Sutherland. Great sets too.
