So as anyone who knows me knows...I became very obsessed with a little show called Pushing Daisies this year. And if you know that, you also know that it has now been cancelled.
It was expected...but still it sucks major doodie! Its such a great amazing show, full of bright shiny colors, the best characters ever (I loved every single main character...which NEVER happens), amazing writing - the dialogue just flows and makes you smile, infact the whole show did that!
So I'm very sad about it not coming back next year...and the fact its supposed to end of a freaking cliffhanger!
So now I've decided that I'm only going to watch old shows...now I know eventually I'll run out..but at least I don't get crushed by it getting cancelled. I know what I'm getting myself into. -Its safe.
Recently me and Ness started watching The West Wing (after talking about it for ages)...had always known the show and the people on it...but never really got to watch it, or wanted to...besides it was one of those shows that never stayed in the one timeslot for very long.
After the pilot..I liked it...after a few more eps, I was into it....after a few more I was HOOKED! While I don't understand most of it...its a fantastic show, with great writing and the actors/characters rock!
You know I think seeing as it only came out here in 2000....I probably was too young for the show at the time..and am glad I'm watching it now. I have a better understanding of US politics...especially after the election stuff going on in the last year. And while I've always had a few 'grown up' shows, I don't think I could have appreciated the West Wing back then.
I think I might have to get the dvd box set....if only to watch CJ fall into the pool...and Donna and Josh ramble.
I'm getting a little worried about the current state of television. With Daisies gone and ER ending at the end of this season...I'm running out of shows to watch. Sure I'll watch Lost, but even that only has 2 more seasons left. And I'll probably keep watching NCIS(which I like but only watch when I've run out of other new eps), Grey's Anatomy, Private Practice, and Brothers and Sisters...I think I've given up on Heroes, Desperate Housewives (although my sis watches it, so I'll probably see it when its on regular aussie tv), Samantha Who, Dirty Sexy Money...I can't think of any other shows I watch at the moment. I'll also probably not give any new shows a look either.
Maybe I'll get into Scrubs...thats a show I know, but have never really watched.
Maybe I'll just go down to blockbuster and rent any show that looks interesting. That or I'll just keep watching my dvds over and over...and over and over again.
TV sucks! They better give Kristin an award though...I still can't believe that Jean Smart beat her for the Emmy....seriously?!
