TV round up--no spoilers.
Aug. 8th, 2010 03:57 amEureka. They really stepped up to the plate this season. I love what they are doing. Not crazy about the last episode but that's because I don't watch Warehouse 13. But I'm really enjoying this show this year.
White Collar. Again, I like it. I think the show has found its rhythm. Very enjoyable.
Haven. I still find it odd but like the character Duke (and his actor.)
Being Human. Am enjoying this one, too. Lots of cards in play. Fun stuff. I love meta in a show when it's down well.
Pillars of the Earth. Very enjoyable! I wish I could watch this mini-series all at once. And I want all the bad guys' karma to bite 'em in the ass as quickly as possible, please!
Covert Affairs. I was turned off by the ads (not attracted to the starlet looking all hunted, confused and helpless.) But a friend told me that's not the show and the main character is actually quite competent. I've seen three eps now and really like it. I don't have to work at paying attention. It has interesting plots, interesting characters and some good actors. I'm not a fan of main actress as she emotes a little too loudly but that could be the directors. Hopefully that will settle down after a few more eps. I do find it interesting that most of the male characters have been untrustworthy or at least have an agenda except for Auggie. I do like him and like his relationship with Annie. And I like that Annie is good at her job, and that her concerns of having some interaction with her sister and nieces is desired and not a burden. They're up to ep number four or five right now but are rerunning the earlier eps a lot so you can catch up. Oh yeah, the one I watched tonight had Oded Fehr in it (it's called No Quarter if you are just an Oded Fehr fan.)
Just told Tivo to get Rubicon. Another spy show. I wonder why all the spy shows suddenly?
Also have to mention Top Gear and James May's Toy Stories. Very entertaining.
Finished watching the bronze medal Curling game finally. Sweden vs. Switzerland. Excellent game! Amazing shots. Just one more to go now.
I think I've given up on The Gates unless someone cares to defend its honor?
