uhh

ill be watching prison break when it comes, which is next june here. The wife got me the season 1 boxset at the weekend cause my birthday's coming up

aside from that i watch taggart and rebus whenever they have a series on, but both are finished just now

so the only other show i'll be watching is afterlife, which is a british show that's kinda like that ghost whisperer or medium, except it's good

i fancy that heroes though, i might download it.

what's the difference between 30 rock and studio 60

pale blue eyes
10-10-2006, 05:09 PM
30 Rock

I forgot about this because it has taken so long to premiere. It looks funny and I love both Tina Fey and latter day Alec Baldwin so I'm hoping it's decent.

30 Rock is fast paced and hilarious, Studio 60 is stupid and boring.

You can watch the first epsiode on NBC.com with a few minor interruptions, which is better than waiting all day for it to download, imo. I watched it twice yesterday, it was so great. I'm really glad Tracy Morgan is back on tv.

wednesday - Lost
thursday - n/a
friday - n/a
saturday - College football
sunday - NFL football

I tried to watch Friday Night Lights and Jericho, but they might be the worst shows ever placed on TV. Jericho has the worst acting outside a middle school play, and Friday Night Lights is apparently filmed by autistics.

That's how they ended the series finale, except they realized they couldn't actually continue the show that way when it got uncanceled. So Lucy miscarried and this season has been dealing mostly with that.
