Things
On the weekend, while fishing (virtually), I watched some stuff. Mostly UK stuff. Here are some one-line reviews:

- Secret Diaries of a Callgirl is pretty good, but I don't think Ill watch season 2.
- Demons seems okay, in a slightly-more-serious-than-Doctor-Who, Supernaturalish kind of way. I might get episode 2.
- Trueblood seems meh.
- Being Human is actually alright, even though the new vampire dude is beginning to seem more like a young pre-alcoholic Bernard Black.
- Zeitgeist, which is a doco, started off good, but then started claiming that 9/11 was a conspiracy and I got really bored.
- Kings seems good, but not good. But I got episodes 2-6 to watch, just in case.

In other TV news:

- Heroes character development is a bit silly. Its like Spike in Buffy all over again - nonsensical changes to the characters' personality. Only Kring doesn't pull it off like Joss.
- South Park is always great.
- Scrubs is funny again.
- The Office has gotten a bit weird in the past few eps.
- House is almost interesting at the moment.

Also, gay is a synonym for stupid. The rules for the english language apply to you guys too, gay people!

I think you only find Trueblood meh because you're a boy. I, as a girl, find it fantastically fantastic.

I dunno, I liked the whole not-so-subtle comparison to racism, and I liked Rogue, but the breathlessness...

Well, how can they not be breathless when they're all either having sex, have just had sex, or are thinking about having sex?

i agree with Ricky. True Blood seems like it COULD be awesome, but the sex scenes are awkward and gratuitous, the characters are not exciting or lovable or even particularly scary, and though i only watched one episode i could not see it really going to any interesting thematic destinations. The credits looked good though.

I agree with Jacinta. True Blood is fantastically fantastic.

I really liked Tru Blood. The first season was sweet. I basically was sleep deprived in my last week before the trip because I NEEDED to see how it ended. It really improved. Stopped being quite so porn-y about half way through.

I found it average, I could watch it but there is many more shows I would prefer to watch.

Also seriously Boys should be all over it BOOBS JACINTA, LOTS OF BOOBS.

I made it 8 episodes in before I just kinda stopped. I may go back but I doubt it, they storyline just wasn't gripping me.
