That's right folks. Watch Dexter, and steer clear of British humor.

British Humor IS awesome... I'll back-up jonwings on his Blackadder statement. Also, another oddly funny show the brits made for our amusement is called Father Ted... it's about three priests on a small island, one tries to be normal but secretly has dreams of fame and fortune, one is a complete idiot, and one is an ancient guy who has either been drunk or on some kind of chemicals for years. It was a fairly short show, but I loved it.

yah...it was ME who brought up BlackAdder. I think Chad might like that one, what do you guys think?
and good call Chase on Father Ted, I forgot how funny that show is, Especially if you like mocking religion.
proof that british people can be funny = Monty Python.

I sincerely doubt Chad would like it... you have to either like Shakespeare (for the first season) or like history (for everything else) to really appreciate it.

Rowan Atkinson's live shows are pretty funny as well, ever seen them?

But you gotta admit, it's a good show.
The actual guilty pleasures that I have are... Everybody Hates Chris nearly every movie with Jommy Lee Jones (TLJ) in it America's Funniest Home Videos...luckily I found a marathon while I was home. My mom thought something was wrong because I was laughing so hard every other minute.
And if anyone out there disses AFV, you haven't seen the show with me. It's an experience.

It looks like the real TV season is just starting to get going. Just watched the first couple hours of 24, with two more tomorrow. On Friday, it is the begining of the end of Battlestar Galactica. On Sunday, the new season of Big Love kicks off. And all of that leads into the new season of Lost starting a week from Wed.
Now there will be all sorts of good stuff on TV. Til now all I have had left for the past couple weeks has been Top Chef.
And we watched the firest couple of episodes of the 2nd season of The Tudors. That is good stuff.

Are those Webisodes the things with Geata trapped on the raptor? I noticed those On Demand a week or so ago. They had 3 of them so if there are more I am going to have to check them out.
Another cool thing they have On Demand is this thing were they go through everything that has happened so far in 2 minutes. It is pretty funny as well as a good primer for the new episodes.

I just finished watching the rest of the Galactica webisodes and I do not know what is hacking me off more, the fact that I am going to have to wait until atleast Friday probably longer to get some resolution or the piss poor effort in the Wings game tonight. I am very interested in how the story will resolve itself.

I wanted to give a shout out to Veronica Mars. We just finished up watching the first season of this one for the second time and it is still just as good as the first time we watched it. The season long mystery is outstanding. We will probably be starting up the second season this week sometime. I highly recommend this show and you can probably find for around $20 pretty easy, which is good for a full season of something. And you get pre-Heroes Kristen Bell
