Too much TV? No such thing.
A quick blog before I go to sleep. I guess I have a lot of free time during the week after work (but not enough time to get out and back into my town) so I’ve watched a lot of stuff on my laptop. I’ve filled 120GB since buying my hard drive. Quite an accomplishment for me. I’ll just list everything I’ve watched for now, and edit it later with little blurbs about each show/movie.
Beauty and the Geek - Season 4 (9 episodes) - OK season. I liked season 3 better. But I can relate to the geeks so it’s a good watch.
Big Bang Theory - Season 1 (8 episodes) - Hilarious show. Again, I can relate to the main characters. Minus the smarts.
CSI Las Vegas - Season 5 (18 episodes) - All three CSI seasons were from one of the other guys in my town when I didn’t have internet. Pretty good series, but each episode is contained (I can’t think of a better word) so there’s nothing compelling me to keep watching.
CSI Miami - Season 3 (18 episodes)
CSI New York - Season 1 (18 episodes)
Dragonball (153 episodes) - Awesome. I didn’t realize it was so funny. I might have enjoyed it more than DBZ.
Dragonball Z (20 episodes)
Dragonball Z special movies (13 episodes)
Eureka - Season 1 (12 episodes) - Another show about nerds. And then a non-nerd sheriff that cleans up their messes. Entertaining.
Eureka - Season 2 (13 episodes)
Heroes - Season 2 (8 episodes) - Wowee. Can I be Peter Petrelli?
House - Season 4 (7 episodes) - I miss the original cast but still a good watch.
Prison Break - Season 3 (8 episodes) - So unbelievable but I keep watching it because I have to know how it will end.
Smallville - Season 7 (7 episodes) - I feel the end of the series coming. All the characters are getting darker.
The Office - Season 4 (7 episodes) - Hahaha.
Fantastic Four Rise of the Silver Surfer - Entertaining.
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix - Only 2 movies after this one? I find the movies too short. I don’t want them to end.
I Now Pronounce you Chuck and Larry - Kind of dumb. It has it’s moments of funny. Entertaining I guess.
In the Land of Women - A surprisingly good watch. Maybe because I was bored. I don’t know what the overall message of the movie was.
Knocked Up - Not as funny/good as I was expecting. Everyone hyped it up too much.
License to Wed - I don’t like Robin Williams. Maybe it was his character though. He angered me in this movie. A cute movie I guess.
Pirates of the Caribbean At World’s End - I heard this movie was disappointing so I watched it with low expectations. It met my expectations. Not as good as the first one.
Ratatouille - Cute movie. Kind of dirty if you think of it… rats cooking your food… hahaha.
Reign Over Me - I liked this movie. I usually find Adam Sandler over the top but I liked him in this one.
The Bourne Supremacy - Oh man. Can I be Jason Bourne?
The Bournce Ultimatum - Oh man x 2.
The Fast and the Furious Tokyo Drift - Hahaha. Terrible movie but I watched it to see if I could learn some Japanese and recognize some sites in Tokyo. I did. I learned “Wabaki” are the Japanese slippers and I recognized Shibuya.
Transformers - Action, comedy, what more could you ask for?
And I finished downloading seasons 8-10 of Friends. So I have a few episodes to watch when I’m bored and need a laugh.

I’m not in a foreign place but I too have a lot of time throughout the day now that I “work” at home. Joox has helped me cope with 1-2 new movies to watch a day. In the last two weeks alone, I’ve watched:
Ali
American Gangster
Bee Movie
Bourne Ultimatum
Chuck and Larry
EuroTrip
FF: Rise of the Silver Surfer
From Dusk til Dawn
Gone in 60 Seconds
Ratatouille
Reign Over Me
And today, I will watch Alpha Dog. lol.
And yes, I agree with John that you should watch Grey’s. Seasons 2 and 3 filled my early October. ;D

Hey some of us have more than 5 hours of school/work a week John. Hahaha
I dunno about Grey’s, it seems like such a drama

November 12th, 2007 at 6:56 pm

Hey! These shows have spanned through time! Weekends/Weekdays with no work to do = TV time. When finals comes around, I watch a bit less :P
But, GREY’S IS A DRAMA YOU WILL LIKE. GUARANTEED.

American Gangster is apparently very good too. The studio must be fuming considering the movie got copied to dvd at least a week before the premier :\
I agree with John. Grey’s is going to be a good series. You will also fall in love with Lexi. Oh sweet, Lexi. 52.
