What TV series are you watching?

Postby Riku Rose » Sat Nov 28, 2009 8:27 pm

This is a thread to post blurbs based on series you are currently viewing. If you are looking to have in depth discussion, please use the series specific threads. If there are none, simply create one. We encourage thread creation.


At the moment I'm watching quite a few.

Sopranos: Series 2
Scrubs: Series 8
Curb Your Enthusiasm: Series 7
Gavin And Stacey: Series 3

I usally watch one series on DVD/BluRay at a time and others on TV as they come.

I'm just catching up on some anime, actually...
Not sure if I should post that here or the other topic...

Oh, fuck it.

Devil May Cry
Darker than Black
Moribito

Oh, and the last episode of Monk should be coming on next Friday, so I'll be watching that. I don't usually watch it regularly (just the odd episode here and there), but it's a great show nonetheless.

I love Monk. I've been watching it since the very first episode back in 01 i think it was. Realy sucks to see it go.

NCIS - great show

Other then that, mostly just anime.


Monster
Bleach
Hajime No Ippo - Just now got all the episodes. Man it's such a great anime. I recommend it to those who havn't seen it.

Gargoyles (not seen this series since my childhood, still good, a bit overrated though)
Wild Palms (Twins Peaks style mini series, very obscure, but very good)

I didn't know they was ending Monk. I used to love watching that when I was ill (They show it around lunch time here) and was off school.

^^Yeah, I was really disappointed when I heard it was ending this season. At least they're getting to properly close the series though, with the one plot thread that's never been tied up: the death of Monk's wife.
The ending is a two parter, and the first part that they showed this past Friday was really good. I hope the next part is as good. I hate when a series ends on a crappy note (Seinfeld, I'm looking at you... even though I never liked you much anyway).

Wowowowowowowo. You didn't like Seinfeld much? I'm not sure if I can look at you anymore. But yeah was a bad ending.

Sienfeld is the most overrated show ever.
Jerry the star himself was never funny,the writing was okay just the supporting cast was extremely talented in their performances to pull it off.

If they cast anyone else for those roles the show would have tanked.
Just about all the jokes have not aged well.

^^Yeah, that's all about right. I can appreciate it for what it is, and it does have a few very classic episodes that are very cleverly constructed, but it really is overrated. I rarely ever laughed out loud watching it. And it's always pretty distracting how horrible an actor Jerry Seinfeld is. The supporting cast was great, but overall the show isn't as great as it's been made out to be.

Not right now but I used to like married with children a lot.
I am not a tv show fan anyway.

I saw Star-ving It is short but good.
The main character is the actor of Bud bundy from married with children.

:lol:
That was actually funny. I've grown a deeper appreciation for Married With Children when I catch reruns of it as of late (it's never serious, which is great. I hate how current sitcoms always have to shove drama in your face) so it's kind of cool to see that right now.
Is that an actual series, or just like a bunch of internet shorts or something?

Simpsons
Cleveland Show
Fam Guy
Two and a Half Men

Those are the constants right now, so lots of TV on Sundays.

I've been watching a bit of Dead like Me lately, and waiting for the new Big Love season to come out. Also the new Nurse Jackie and Hung.
