So, great week. My hard drive crashed. I lost all my downloaded movies and TV shows. But, I'm most upset about my music. Thousands of songs I could never possibly remember the redownload. I feel like I should have been more upset about this disaster, but I was just overwhelmed and in too much shock. I am also upset I lost a lot of lists, including my To Watch list of shows. I'm gonna have to just remember them all. And just the night before I had finished making a list of all the movies I wanted to see that starred one of my 20 fave actors. I went through all their filmographies on IMDb and made a pretty darn big list. Just the night before! Sigh. Bad tiiming. Anyways, Ibetter get on with it so I can go to work.


  • Sunday
  • Dexter


  • Monday
  • The Big Bang Theory
  • Castle
  • Heroes - I know, Heroes is bad, but its still mildly interesting. I wont stop watching until it becomes torture because I want to know what happens.

  • Tuesday
  • NCIS
  • NCIS: LA - I'll give it a shot but in the crossover episode the character were really bland, besides Callen
  • V - I'll probably love this. More likely than the other new ones. Looks like my kinda show.

  • Wednesday
  • Oddly nothing for Wednesday

  • Thursday
  • The Mentalist
  • Fringe
  • Bones - SO exited!
  • Flash Forward - I'll give it a shot.


  • Friday
  • Dollhouse - Really hope its good, like Epitaph One. That's what they've been saying anyway.
  • Sanctuary - SO exited!
  • Stargate Universe -I'll give this a shot as well. I know its Stargate, but from what I've heard there sounds like there will be way too much drama for my tastes.


  • Saturday
  • Legend of the Seeker



I am also looking forward to Lost, Chuck, and The Tudors in 2010. And I will check out new shows Day One and Spartacus: Blood and Sand.

Here are some of my recent fave trailers for your enjoyment, although some of you might have seen them already, especially if you're on Twitter since I'm constantly posting trailers. I used to have them all in HD on my hard drive.


Enjoy!

I just posted my fall schedule too I'll be watching Dexter, BBT, Castle, Bones (are you actually really excited about Bones or was that sarcasm?), Fringe, flash forward and dollhouse
Posted Aug 30, 2009 7:39 am PT
Have you seen the Dexter premiere? A preair is leaked...
Posted Aug 30, 2009 7:40 am PT
I was actually serious about Bones. I have heard so many ppl say they are not sure about the show after last season, I so I felt I should add that comment to support it. I saw the Dexter pilot already. It was too short. Since I just watched all 3 seasons of Dexter in one shot, I'm gonna hate having to wait between epis. I'll comment on your blog later cuz I gotta go to work!

finally someone thats excited about bones woo thank you! i got a feeling this season is gonna be great! i have nothing on fridays which is weird, i always had sth on fridays. damn
Posted Aug 30, 2009 8:58 am PT
Dude, I feel for you... That has happened to me once. So what I do now is back-up all my stuff on CD/DVD or on an external hard drive, so if it were to happen again (god forbid), I would have a back-up. For my fall schedule I can't wait to see Supernatural, Castle, NCIS, Fringe, Big Bang Theory, Sanctuary, Dollhouse, Smallville and Stargate Universe.

Hey Rebecca, aw man I'm sorry about your hard drive crashing that crap happened to me earier this year and I lost all my shows. I feel your pain You have a packed schedule! Heroes is bad what are you doing watching it? Bad Rebecca lol. I'm gonna be watching Dexter, V looks so good, I'm gonna give Flash Forward a go too. I'm gonna watch Fringe, Dollhouse (begrudgingly), and I will watch Sanctuary if I remember to catch up on season 1 in time. Aww your follow me thing is much better than mine I'll have to get a new on now cos mine looks lame in comparison.

Sorry t hear about your drive Bummer.I am looking forward to the new fall season except Wed night nothing on. I only like New Adventures and Gary unmarried. I am also looking forward to the new season of supernatural the trailer sounds as if it is going to pick up after a slow last season. I hope Stargate Universe holds up to the rest of them.
Posted Aug 30, 2009 10:05 am PT
I see Sanctuary on your list. I am so glad to see someone else excited about this show. I think it's great! I feel the same way you do about Stargate Universe. Stargate Atlantis was great the first few seasons and then got bogged down in weird stories but I am going to give this show a chance. Not sure on V. I think Wednesday I'll at least check out Eastwick. Thanks, Jeffery

Hi there! Ahh.. I'm so sorry about your hard drive crashing. I can see the hassle in remembering all your songs, but you don't really listen to all of them, do you? Do you keep your songs in a MP3 player or iPod?
Posted Aug 30, 2009 1:59 pm PT
That totally sucks about your hard drive. That happened to me in the spring. I lost thousands of pictures and songs that took 2 years to download. I bought a portable HD and filled it with video since now I'm obsessed with downloading shows. I haven't even started on building my music library yet, just a few hundred songs. I'm really excited for V. I'm old enough to remember the original miniseries. Bones, meh for me last year. I'll DVR it anyway and we'll see. I'm gonna check out NCIS:LA cause I like Chris O'Donnell and LL CoolJ. FlashForward looks really good too. Just started watching Dollhouse. TBBT is hilarious! Castle's on my list too. Laters........
Posted Aug 30, 2009 2:27 pm PT
That really sucks that your hardrive crashed and that you lost everything. I'll be watching Dollhouse and Dexter. I'm interested in The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus. I'm looking forward to when it comes out.
Posted Aug 30, 2009 3:12 pm PT
@ Zala So, you dont watch Dollhouse? Are you one of the ones who gave up on it part way through S1? You could always check out Sanctuary.




@ Sarah I always burn the shows and movies I wanna keep after I watch them. I have two big binders full. But there were still quite a few I hadnt watched yet. You're watching all the same shows as me this fall except for Supernatural and Smallville. BTW, LOVE your profile pic. And you're avatar, obviously. Are you Danny boy fangirl too?




@ Jodie Lol, I remembered your little birdy and when I mentioned Twitter my blog I thot to add one too, but I just googled it and found mine. Its cute.




@ tazman Yeah, nothing Wednesday for me either. Really hope SGU is good and all the drama stuff isnt the focus. I was one of the few ppl who was excited about it at first, until the trailer was released.
Posted Aug 30, 2009 8:43 pm PT
@ jyarter Sanctuary is awesome! I wish more ppl watched it. It deserves it. I agree about SGA. The first part of the series was great. On par with SG-1 IMO. I would order the seasons 3, 2, 1, 4, 5. It got better as it went along and peaked at 3, then started to go down again.




@ Ivy I'm not a huge music person but I have to have background noise pretty much all the time, so I would always be playing music. I have pretty much just two types I like, instrumental and pop. So I would either play all my instrumental on random, which was A LOT, or all my pop, also a lot. I had probably 15 different movie score soundtracks as well as the entire discography of Immediate Music, X-Ray Dog, and Beethoven, just to name a few. But the pop was all random songs I heard on the radio and liked so I downloaded them. There is no way I would get all those back. Maybe just the more recent ones. I dont have an iPod but I have some of my music on my phone so I can get a bit of it back. Plus my bro listens to a lot of instrumental as well so I could just steal his. Wow, rant.




@ Emiko It was actually a portable HD that crashed, so I'll need to buy a new one and I'm not sure precautions I am gonna take for this to not happen again. I'm not gonna attempt to rebuild my music library, except the stuff I remember and want back the most. I'm pretty darn upset about all my lists tho. I'm not old enough to had actually watched V, but I am old enough to remember it existed. I'm always up for a remake of something I havent seen though. No insulting me if I dont know the original.




@ Jon Yay, someone else for Imaginarium! I think it looks great. Excited to see more Heath Ledger material, and I love the casting of the 3 other actors to fill in his role. Realing exciting stuff. And it reminds me of The Adventures of Baron Munchausen which I really liked as a kid. After the trailer came out it made me want to watch it so I recently downloaded it.

Hey OMG! that sucks that your hard drive crashed I'm excited about Bones too And Chuck. It sucks we have to wait until 2010 for it Have a great week!
Posted Aug 31, 2009 2:59 am PT
I'm really excited about Bones too, not that it's earned it I love David too much. Damn me. I did the same thing as you with Dexter but I look forward to waiting. I think that actually makes a show better
Posted Aug 31, 2009 3:21 am PT
WoahMyDemps I would die if my hard drive crashed. For pretty much the same reason; music. And also all my pictures. I would cry. Literally. I really need to get an external hard drive. Anyway, I hope it's not too bad for you. Your schedule looks good. Not as full as mine but still awesome I know what you mean by Heroes. I still watch it and I think it is so lame now but I can't stop watching it. I need to watch it and if I don't I freak. We can watch it and talk about it's badness together and laugh I can't decide whether I'm gonna check the NCIS crossover out. I feel that it's kinda the same thing as the Grey's Anatomy crossover. I don't watch taht either. I can't wait for V. Is that scifi enough? haha not really but you know what I mean. I'm trying to be a good scifi... person... I'm really excited for Bones too!!! *high five* Hahaha I just was all excited about you posting a Twitter thing and then I realised that I already follow you hahaha
Posted Aug 31, 2009 5:19 am PT
@ Charlotte Yeah, it really sucks to have to wait so long for Chuck.




@ Daria I'm not a huge David fan, but I love the characters. It is better to watch a show slowly, but sometimes you cant help when you get addicted. I really like watching shows in one shot when they are long and already finished. Like when I watched Buffy and Angel and many others.




@ Jess I have a lot of pic too, but they usually just sit there until I use one every once in a while. I could just regoogle them if I want to use one. Although they did take awhile to find cuz I have HQ photoshoots of all my fave actors. Hundreds of pics each. I would have lost my family and friends pics too if they werent on Facebook. Ah crap. I just remembered I lost all the avatars, banners, and wallpapers I made. The ones I have used are hosted somewhere, but not all of them. V is super scifi IMO. I'm surprised so many ppl are gonna check it out. It actually reminds me of an episode of SG-1.

Even though volumne 4 was dull and weird and I don't exactly have great hope for volume 5 I won't give up on heroes. I mean even when shows go down bad paths I kind of am unwilling to let go until they slide in quality, start getting boring and make bad story lines/calls. Heroes is going through that right now but they still have some small redeeming elements. Like for example Peter and Sylar, though I must admit they're both in weird places right now (peter being underused and messed with and Sylar well...Nathan) but unless they killed them both off I think I'll riade heroes out till the end.
Posted Aug 31, 2009 10:56 am PT
How can you not be a huge David (Boreanaz) fan? Im a straight male and I Love him! Shocked!
Im so sorry to hear about your hard drive, that truly suckes. You just know there are great songs on there that you will not remember
About your list; that seems to be everything of value. I probably wount see NCIS:LA, the crossover didnt do anything for me. Cant wait for Dollhouse and BBT and Bones and V and...
Posted Aug 31, 2009 12:40 pm PT
@ SMGslayer97 I agree. Heroes is still entertaining enough to watch for me, as long as they have Sylar and Peter. And I think they always will. The death of either character would be the death of the show.




@ Igarka I like Daivd, I'm just not a huge fan. I've never watched anything just because he was in it. I thot the NCIS crossover ep was really good, but not because of the new characters. They all seemed really useless, especially Louise Lombard's character even though she is supposed to be the team leader. They really could have done better.
Posted Aug 31, 2009 1:58 pm PT
I started watching Bones because of David, but I guess everybody cant be huge fans everybody, wich is good since most people like really boring showes. Oh Im not really saying the crossover ep was bad, all of our favorites where there wich I like, but as you said the new people where really meh. So yes they could have done so much, much better.
Posted Aug 31, 2009 2:27 pm PT
Sorry about your hard drive. I'd go bananas if I lost my music collection. I stopped at 30+Gb worth of mp3s (128mb@) I think. I haven't been able to update since watching too much TV. Nothing for Wednesday? Rest for your TV set. When's LOTS gonna air again? V, FlashForward, and Day One are among those I shouldn't miss. I no longer tweet. Enjoy your week!
Posted Aug 31, 2009 6:24 pm PT
@ macky LotS premiers November 7. Its so long from now.
Posted Aug 31, 2009 6:47 pm PT
Thanks. Yep, it's a long wait. But that's good too, since our TV viewing sched is cramped as it is.
Posted Sep 1, 2009 5:09 am PT
I answered that comment, but my comment got lost I have no idea why but I can't comment on the same thing twice lol. It's another weird thing about me I guess
Posted Sep 2, 2009 8:24 am PT
Oh man, that really sucks that it was the portable HD That's how I feel about my music. I'm downloading stuff that I "can't live without". No worries/comments on not remembering the original V. In fact, I feel pretty old for remembering it myself. It's probably good that you never saw the original cause it will be completely new for you.
Posted Sep 2, 2009 3:35 pm PT
Yeah, I like remakes when I havent seen the original. Of course I hate them when they are movies I liked. I'm just a hypocrite like that.
