This past season I was enjoying Dollhouse ..  so glad they renewed it ..  Joss Whedon's series seem to start out slow ..  or complicated ..    but just keep getting better ..     I'm happy Fox decided to take the chance and bring it back ..  I'm sure it will be better than last season ...   

I've just discovered Dexter ..   so I've downloaded the first 3 seasons and my son and I have been having a Dexter marathon ..  4 episodes a night ...  well ..  when it fits in with our schedules ..   

Since we are finally starting the third season ..  I've taken some notes from this thread and will try some of these shows ..  thanks guys ..  :)

I really must start on Dollhouse as you are the second person to compliment Whedon regarding it. I unfortunately don't really get any time to watch TV other than enough to watch perhaps one episode of something a day.  But my friends all raved about Dexter so much it is on my permanent todo list, and I already have the seasons as my missus also swears by it.

Great to see you around Pandora.
Don't put off until tomorrow, what you can put off until the day after.

There is an exception to every rule, apart from this one.

I found Dollhouse took a few episodes to get attached to it ..  in the beginning I just kept saying ..  why and what??  He probably got to explaining all the circumstances around half way through the season ..   once I understood more I couldn't wait for the next episode ..

^oh dear i hated myself for a week for finishing the 1st book of twilight. i have to shudder, that i made myself suffer through it against my better judgement, was speechless when i found it had sequels

finished true blood and liked it, it's actually kinda nice to know that i won't bored out of my mind, because i already know the books and therefore the storyline.

I haven't actually read the Twilight books except for the first ten pages of book 1. And even then Meyer's continuous description of Edward's beauty annoyed me, is it a beauty pageant or something? But the Twilight-mania at my school is really OTT.

^^^

I liked Twilight when it first came out. I read it before anyone was talking about it, so that made a huge difference. I agree with Fi that it's way too ott to enjoy it anymore. And, I haven't gotten the nerve up to read the last one at all because I think I'll be dsappointed. Plus a friend of mine just went 'o_O omg! guess what just happened' when she got the book the first day, so I know the gist of it.

I've never gotten into Trueblood. The books or the series. But..I'm not a fair judge because I rarely watch ficton based tv shows. The parts I did catch of Trueblood seemed too soap operish for me. And..as much as I adore Anna Paquin, her acting seemed sort of forced in the bits I've seen. dunno.. If I was pushed, I'd give it a go again.. maybe :P And I'm between books, so I've considered reading the books this week. er.. that's all I guess :P

A bit OT, but talking about books to movies, anyone looking forward to HP6?
It's actually the first HP movie I'm looking forward to :D
Probably because:
Spoiler (hover to show)
But if they put all the focus into the relationships between the trio, I'll be pissed off. I will also lose all hope for HP7.
