Did you see the third ep?" Man... it was SO good I think I'm hooked now. It still doesn't hold a candle to Angel, but I miss vampire stuff on my TV and will pretty much take this as the next best thing. :)Nikki Staffordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04463618183850438914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30892649.post-89675909815147144612007-10-14T10:36:00.000-04:002007-10-14T10:36:00.000-04:00Okay, Moonlight ep. 3 was even better.

And this time, the mystery wasn't really a crime solving thing, so much as learning more about vampires and how they operate in this particular fictional world. <BR/><BR/>There was a little bit of a forced dialogue at the end, but it did allow for some good character interaction. <BR/><BR/>Bev (or is it Beth...?) is getting better, too. <BR/><BR/>And Alex O'Loughlin is still pretty to look at...K J Gillenwaterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12023089365553324315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30892649.post-63649465366164720932007-10-13T21:05:00.000-04:002007-10-13T21:05:00.000-04:00Colleen: How do I change diapers? The changetable ...Colleen: How do I change diapers? The changetable is the, um... couch. In front of the TV. Hee. <BR/><BR/>Seriously, no one should be in awe of me. I have to feed my son every 2 hours, for about 45 minutes each time. So if I plant myself on the couch that means I can get through about 4 shows a day, being 45 min each without commercials, and then I can usually watch one in the evening before hitting the bed at 9:30, anticipating a lot of wake time at night. I'm in awe of people who are watching a lot of shows and working all day... So that's how I watch so many shows. :) <BR/><BR/>Sarah: Thanks for the link; I'll definitely have to post on that. <BR/><BR/>Crissy: I TOTALLY forgot that novelty song, but Rob and I actually rewound to watch it a second time, we were laughing so hard. BRILLIANT. <BR/><BR/>Chris and Crissy: Yay, two Pushing Daisies fans!! I need everyone to watch this so it doesn't get cancelled. :) LOVE IT. <BR/><BR/>Ann: Thanks for the suggestion! I'll have to wait to see if it airs on Space here in Canada (we don't get the Sci-Fi Channel). <BR/><BR/>Anonymous: I'm halfway through this week's Moonlight, and so far, intrigued. Lots of vampire lore in this one. Man, every time I think I'm out, they pull me back in. ;) <BR/><BR/>Chris: Also love the Tudors. Just finished the second ep. SO happy Czerny is in it. He's great in everything he does. :)Nikki Staffordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04463618183850438914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30892649.post-80173034118535295692007-10-13T18:48:00.000-04:002007-10-13T18:48:00.000-04:00PUSHING DAISIES IS SO FREAKING COOL!!! Ahem. And t...PUSHING DAISIES IS SO FREAKING COOL!!! <BR/><BR/>Ahem. And that's my reaction after seeing only the one episode this week. I love love love the voiceovers -- for me, that's the best part of the show, and that's saying a lot ... considering how amazing all the other elements are. (Check out the recap of the first episode on Television Without Pity -- the writer does this very funny bit imagining a proper British actor getting increasingly weirded out by the plot as he narrates it).<BR/><BR/>And the Tudors is my other new fave -- how brilliantly has it been cast? Sam Neill as Wolsey, and my favourite Canadian actor Henry Czerny as Norfolk. And Jeremy Northam as Sir Thomas Moore. I don't mind admitting: I am totally queer for Jeremy Northam. Though I do hope the writers stop prefacing his dialogue with "well, as a humanist ..."Chris in NFhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06064023598020493124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30892649.post-576155859645801262007-10-13T08:07:00.000-04:002007-10-13T08:07:00.000-04:00I agree with you, Nik, on last week's "Moonlight."...I agree with you, Nik, on last week's "Moonlight." I don't find the mystery/crime part particularly great, but there are just a few moments where they pull me back in. And that last scene did it for me. Alex O'Loughlin does a really good job of playing strong-but-broken just when I need him to.<BR/><BR/>Plus, I liked the girl much, much better last week. Instead of playing the typical Hollywood "perky reporter girl," she brought some depth to her character. <BR/><BR/>I haven't seen last night's episode yet, but I am very curious as to what the girl's reaction will be to finding out the guy's a vampire.<BR/><BR/>Does anyone remember the montage of scenes from the end of the pilot? They put things in there that didn't happen in the 2nd episode. Stuff that looked very good. I will stick with this show some more to see if they improve even more...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30892649.post-8546783839791664102007-10-12T22:54:00.000-04:002007-10-12T22:54:00.000-04:00Torchwood gets better as the season goes on.When d...Torchwood gets better as the season goes on.<BR/><BR/>When do you find time to change diapers? You have more shows on your list than I do.<BR/><BR/>Greenwalt wrote the episode when he was briefly the show runner for Moonlight. I can see why he didn't stay. But it's not Angel. It's Forever Knight.

I'm waiting for LOST! My daughter loves Gossip Girl and my sister loves Pushing Daisies. <BR/><BR/>Thanks for the info on the new character.

Men becoming wolves. Werewolf Bar Mitzvah!"<BR/><BR/><B>Pushing Daisies</B>: As we've already discussed, yay on this show. I really really hope it isn't cancelled. It's just the perfect mix of funny and morbid and romantic. Lurve.<BR/><BR/>And <B>Heroes</B> really needs to step it up. The only plot line that's holding my interest is Peter's and I think that's cause I love the Irish (even the horribly fake Irish) and his continued shirtlessness.Crissy Calhounhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12649031326901904608noreply@blogger.com
