Just watched the very last episode of Avatar: the Last Airbender, a show that I discovered barely one month ago and have been enjoying in study pauses every day at 6.30 pm. I wish I had started watching it before, since it's been a great find. The graphics are very much my taste, and so is the story, though at bits reminded me of Dragonball (the fights! Lots of years have passed, but this will be my reference show forever, as it was the first for me), Dragonquest and probably many other anime series.

It did surprise me when I saw that it's not anime, but an American production... something I didn't notice until the Nickelodeon icon popped out at the end, since I was watching a dubbed verson.

anyone a fan of Japanese TV and know where I can find some shows for download?  I found some torrents for HEY!HEY!HEY! Music Champ on JPopSuki, but i want to watch more.  Especially since I found out that Downtown hosts other shows in Japan (like DowntownDX) or that shows like Hole in the Wall are lovingly(?) ripped from existing Japanese shows.

Oh man, I need to start watching then. I haven't really been watching TV lately besides the occasional episode of some reality tv show, and I was planning on holding out on watching Pushing Daisies until I had the time to do a marathon of this season. But, if its fate is being threatened by low ratings, I may have to start again. Honestly, though, I do hope it ends below 39 episodes at least, because the concept can get stale pretty easily and I prefer my series to be shorter anyways.

3. According to E!, Pushing Daisies might not get a Season 3, let alone finish Season 2. They were supposed to have 22 episodes, but due to low-ish ratings, the ABC execs have told them to rewrite episode 13 as a pseudo-finale just in case.

Yeah I heard about that...totally ruins things for me, it's one of my favorite shows. But! I found a petition that can be signed so any signatures from here...are greatly appreciated     http://www.petitiononline.com/daisies/petition.html

That's why I'm glad I watched this instead of America's Next Top Coathanger--I mean, Model. ANTM will always be in reruns, so if I miss it, I'll marathon it later. With shows like PD, sometimes you don't get a second chance. Remember Wonderfalls?

I really enjoy the show.  Although I'd feel less angsty while watching it if they weren't so good at covering up spoilers online.  I mean, Canada knows the ending already!

Well, to be fair, it's a Canadian series that aired last year.  If CN stays on the ball, we might get Season 2 as soon as this is done. Also, thanks to Wikipedia, I was spoilered weeks ago. However, I have a shitty memory, so I tend to forget things.

I absolutely hate myself for enjoying 6teen.  IDK, but it reminds me of the good old days of shows like Recess and The Weekenders, but with teenagers in a mall.

I kept up sometimes with Eli Stone but not enough.

This news makes me so sad.....

Heroes was actually good tonight! It's been sucking major balls lately, which I didn't think any season could be worse than season two. Maybe now that Jeph Loeb and Jesse Alexander have been fired, it will get better? I hear that they're trying to get Joss Whedon to join the writers...

Dude, if Joss Whedon would join the writers, the series would be so awesome.
I think I'm smelling a Hero sing-along-blog

Damn me and my new netflix (is that spelled right?) addition.
I am overdosing on British Comedies to my delight. Black Adder, Absolutely Fabulous, and Chef (who insults people so damn brilliantly it hurts. )
I so need to give PBS some cash some day they introduced me to Britcoms.
Oh shit they have my Hero....It is like crack and or candy.

Black Adder =   After all, Hugh Laurie and Rowan Atkinson?!  It's a match made in British comedy heaven!  I personally enjoyed the Britcom Father Ted, which was brilliant for it's use of cameos and character based humor.  Graham Norton played a reoccurring role an obviously in the closet priest.  It was hilarious!

So I just watched 24:Redemption a.k.a. season 6.5/the prequel to season 7 of 24.  It was great.  Although I felt it paralleled Stallone's recent outing as Rambo (aka Rambo IV).  Badass wants to find a quiet place in the middle of nowhere, and nobody will let him do it, so he kicks some ass in the process.  The best part was, as I watched it on hulu, I caught this little mistake:

^ Wow
I have been watching Daria on youtube.

Thanks babe I have so signed that.
My pal told me, a theory about why MTV is not going to put Daria on DVD...some thing to do with them not being able to license all the music on the show. But then I don't get how they aired it in the first place.
Anyway for those who want to join in on the daria love http://www.youtube.com/user/ariascruz78 note the episodes are very disorganized.

*Cheers* Isn't Black Adder the best?! I can't decide which season I like the most. Although any of the ones with Hugh Laurie are big contenders. I think the Elizabethian one takes the cake though, the cast is so perfect. *nods*

While that season rocks hard. I think that the Christmas carol is very funny due to it's imagining of him as a nice man.... who got screwed over for it.
