Title: Giles from Buffy. He calls the computer an idiot box
But Jenny says that's TV and since I'm gonna talk about TV I thought it was a fitting title. Even though it's nothing idiotic about good TV.
First of all I wanna say you have until the end of next Saturday to answer the quiz in my last blog, but I'll get to correcting and sending you the points you got right after this blog, it gives me something to do while i'm waiting for comments
Emiko and Zala asked for a little time cause they are very busy so I gave it to them ![]()
Well I'm finally caught up with True Blood. And I now have a huge crush on Alexander Skarsgård
He's so sexy! He's even sexy when he speaks Sweedish, which really is a first to me cause it's one of the few languages I dislike. Along with German and Danish. I think all of those languages sound just weird. Sweedish to a lesser extent than Danish and German though
I can understand Sweedish and Danis pretty much perfectly though
Which means I can not read the text under True Blood
They don't always translate it exactly the same way, which makes it fun!
Yes I'm weird.
I've also seen about 6 episodes of Six Feet Under. What an amazing show! I love it already ![]()
I don't know why Jodie and Ela don't think Michael is hot in that. Sure he's hotter as Dexter but really you can't be that picky
Well it's an amazing show. All the characters a flawed in the best way possible which really drives the show and makes it amazing. I'm gonna end up loving this show so much!
I also watched the Dexter premiere. Loved the episode. People are saying this season is gonna be better than season 2. I think it could happen, but that it's unlikely. The baby was a little annoying, but it doesn't look like that that's gonna keep going on. But the murder thing looks really good
I'm just not sure how much I'm gonna enjoy Dexter having less time to himself... I like Dexter alone better than Dexter with other people. It's the only time we see his true self.
I was actually gonna post my fall TV scheduale again
Everyone seems to be doing it and fall is almost here which makes me psyched ![]()

YOU DON'T REALLY NEED TO KNOW WHY I WANT TO WATCH SHOWS SO YOU CAN JUST SKIP THE EXPLENATIONS AND READ THE SHOW NAMES
It's a pretty long blog...
MONDAYS
- Gossip Girl - I may not love this show the way I used to, but I'm still gonna watch it as long as I love it. But if the show doesn't get better I will stop watching. My wish is that the show will improve and that the storylines and couples will be more original. Make it less soapy please!
- How I Met Your Mother - Awesome show! My second favorite that's currently airing. Look desperatly forward to the Barney/Robin stuff. No way I'm giving up on this show, ever! I want Robin and Barney to date for at least half of the season and then break up, I don't want them to stay together. I'd love it if they find a good way to get Barney over her but not in a way where it seems forced. Also I hope Ted isn't as desperate as usually. I'd love for the mother to be some random thing and not like the first date with Robin!
- Castle - I can't wait to see Nate feed the birds and hear the Firefly refference! I can't wait for the opening scene: it's hot and huge! I'm super excited about everything about this show. That's in any way Nate related anyway. Wishes: Some Castle/Beckett shipping moments maybe sex but not love or anything like that. I don't want them together yet. A Nate shirtless scene. Nathan getting more of his own jokes in, I do recognise them

- Big Bang Theory - Awesome show! Enough said. Wish: More Penny/Sheldon even if it's just as friends

- Heroes - Backup plan if I'm bored. Not really planning to watch it. Wish: Same quality as season 1.
- Acsidentaly on purpose - Looks pretty bad but it's paired up with himym so whatever! hope it will surprise me. Watching the pilot and I'll see if it's worth watching then. Wish: Don't suck. Don't make HIMYM's ratings fall!
TUESDAYS
- V - I may not be a fan of the alien part of sci-fi but I do love the actors so I'm sold! One of the very few new shows I'm gonna watch more than the pilot of no matter what
Wish: For it to be AWESOME!!
WEDNESDAYS
- Glee - Another one of the new shows I'm gonna watch more of no matter what. The pilot was good and I hope to fall for this show
Wish: more awesome songs like don't stop believing
Characterdevelopment. - The Beautiful Life - Looks bad, but Mischa Barton is worth a pilot
Wish: for it to actually be really good and have great characters. - Mercy - Michelle Tratchtenberg could make me watch whatever. If the pilot sucks I won't watch though.
- Modern Family - Another new show. I needed more shows on Wednesdays so I'm really just trying a lot. Looks pretty good though.
- Eastwick - Another show I'll be able to tell 100% sure if it's gonna suck or be good after the pilot. Hope it's good.
THURSDAYS
- Vampire Diaries - Pilot will definatly be enough to determine if this show is awesome or lame. No twilight wannabe please!
- Supernatural - It's gonna be the best season in the history of TV except for Buffy and Angel


Wish: Nothing that they haven't already promised us except I want a sex scene with Dean 
- Bones - I'm acutually a little excited over this season
Wish: At least back to season 1 quality. Make another terrible season and I'm not bothering to keep this show on my top 10 list. Will always watch it for David, but I will bash it and make fun of it if it's bad. MAKE IT GOOD!! - Saturaday Night Live Weekend Update - I'm gonna start watching SNL
I have no idea what this Thursday show is but I'll check it out! - Fringe - Good show. The finale made me excited for the next season. Wish: Don't make it too confusing, drop the procedural ****and characterdevelopment. I want Olivia to have actual powers she can use. Get more sci-fi like


- The Office - Cause I feel like trying to watch it once a week. Might work out. Might not. I don't care about catching up though.
- FlashForward - After V this is the show I'm the most excited about

- Grey's Anatomy - Still love the show but not as much as before. Wish: more Mark and Lexie focus. More interesting Derek storylines. More Christina and Meredith moments. Kill off some characters or let them leave. Don't bring any new ones in. Make it less soapy!
- 30 Rock - Amazing comedy
FRIDAYS
- Dollhouse - Joss Whedon. Enough said. Wish: Less Eliza/Echo focus. Eliza to grow into the role. More episodes written and directed by Joss. For it to get darker and closer to the 13th episode. Characterdevelopment for Paul Ballard please! Make Amy Acker's character even more interesting. As much of Alan Tudyk as possible. Give Summer Glau a f*cking amazing role.
SATURDAY
- Saturday Night Live - Cause it's a really great show and I think it will help me understand American pop culture more.
SUNDAYS
- Bored to Death - Some kind of HBO comedy... just found out about it. But it's new. Need to do more research to figure out if I'm gonna watch or not.
- 60 minutes - Cause the news in Norway bore me to death and I kinda wanna be updated. Even if it is just with US problems

- The Simpsons - Because it's hilarious

- Dexter - Legendary show! Can't wait to finally watch it together with all you guys. Wish: For Dexter to get some time alone. For them to not f*ck up the baby thing, it's too easy to f*ck it up. OMG what if Dexter killed the baby! Ok I'm gonna be the only person wishing for that to happen

- Californication - Even HIMYM can't crack me up quite like this show can. Wish: Back to season 1 quality or better.
I hate that my TV chedule is so unbalanced. I may have to put some monday shows off and some of them Thursday shows too. Which of these shows will you watch? Do you have any more new shows to recomend?
This blog is already way too long so I won't do any quotes.
Comments
See that is exactly why I don't watch GG I knew it would be all soapy. I hate when a good show becomes a soap. That's pretty cool if there is a Firefly reference in Castle I love when they do that in shows. Does that make me a geek?
True Blood
Heroes is your backup plan
No Twilight wannabees indeed. Agreed. I was planning on watching Bored to Death since Josh Swartz or whatever his name is is in it. Go Dexter
Hmmm, let's see. I LOVE Bones (you already know that
SNL is amazing because I grew up watching that show and you can't say that about too many shows. It's been around half of forever and yes, you will understand American more. 60 Minutes is a good choice. I don't watch it much, but they do some excellent all-around reporting and it too has been around a VERY long time.
I'm more of a crime show guy, so I'm looking forwards to shows like Numb3rs, The Mentalist (this one I would recommend for you), CSI: NY, Cold Case and a Canadian comedy called Little Mosque on the Prairie. Oh, and football season!!!
As far as an unbalanced TV schedule goes, that's why God made recorders.
Have a great week.
K, 60 Minutes- Wow, I'll tell ya that really surprises and pleases me. It's not too often taht someone your age is interested in ANY kind of news, let alone, another countries news. Good for you! *is proud*
SNL- Too tell you the truth, I haven't watched that show in about 20 years. But you're right, lots of American pop culture. If you have the oppotunity to download episodes from the 70's and 80's, that's when SNL was at it's best.
Dollhouse- Saw E1-5 so far. I love it already and am glad to hear that it's gets amazing from now on. Can't wait to finish off S1 and really anticipating S2. SUPERNATURAL- LOL, caps again.
Glee- Yes, character development would be good. I think this show is meant to be a "satire" in a way. The stereotypes are so strong. Yes, more awesome covers. Taht's why I watched the pilot.
The Office- I had to add this one in. Forgot about it. Dwight, Jim and Pam provide good moments. HIMYM and TBBT- I'll be DVR'ing or downloading them until DWTS is over. TBBT is freakin hilarious!
Castle- Agree on Castle/Kate. I'm big on sexual tension. It's very rare that I want the couple to actually get together. Eastwick- i think this is base on the movie "The Withces of Eastwick". If you haven't seen it you should. It should give you a good idea on the basic plot.
The Vampire Diaries- Agree 100% with you. If it's too teen angsty/Twilight(which I did like like, but not on a weekly basis) I might give up on it. We'll see. Bones- Agree again. S1 was the best. On the fence.
Holy crap. my comments are never this long.
I love Giles. He's one of my favorite characters from BTVS. I saw the first season of True Blood, it was pretty good. I'm thinking about catching up soon. Alexander Skarsgard is very attractive, but I absolutely cannot stand long hair on men. He was great in Generation Kill.
I am so excited Castle got a 2nd season! I like all of the characters, but I wish they'd let the other detectives have more screentime. I prefer more than two main characters generally.
I'm curious about Heroes, but I'm not sure I can watch it knowing they killed Nathan. I suppose I'll see if I'm busy enough with all the rest of my shows or not. I'm not sure about Bones either, the quality has really declined and while I used to like the characters (except Angela, I never liked her) they've really started to irritate me.
Dollhouse was great the first season, and I hope it continues to be good. I like Ballard so more screen time would be great. But I want Dominic back.
I'm really looking forward to V and FlashForward. I have been so bloody excited for FlashForward since I first saw a promo in the movie theater a couple months ago. September 24th cannot get here fast enough.
You've certainly got a lot of shows to watch this fall. Although knowing tv, some of them will end up to be crap or get canceled.
Lol, that's a packed tv schedule indeed. Lol, I don’t watch any of those but I'm pretty curious about the new V show so I'll try and check out on it. Hugs
P.S. Back from your previious blog and I can't honestly guess any of it so go me
