This week on TV

I am not sure if I have ever watched this much TV in my adult life so I am little amazed. I have watched TV so much in the past two weeks that I could probably have a daily blog on TV shows and movies. My new harddrive for my Moxi box has really paid its dividends. I calculated that I have about 75 hours of HD recording capacity.

There was so many shows on Sunday night, sometimes 3 shows at once so my Moxi scheduled to record some HBO shows throughout the night. I got a chance to watch Little Britain USA and the Life and Times of Tim on Monday. I was not really impressed with either. I already stopped Little Britain from recording. I will give Tim a couple more tries. I really am not sure why we keep bringing over shows from Britain. First is was the Office. I haven’t watched either versions but everyone tells me that the UK version is better. The US version has been very successful so it somewhat debunks my theory. Little Britain and Secret Diary of a Cal Girl are two shows which I don’t expect to make the cut. I am not sure how you could mess up a show about a call girl but I somehow could not stay interested. Everyone knows that Brits have a different sense of humor than most.

I was really excited to watch Dirty, Sexy, Money since it’s season ended abruptly last year due to the writers strike. It wasn’t bad after watching it, but it lost some of its allure to me. One thing I did like Natalie Zea’s new look. I couldn’t stop looking at her eyes. They had to be the hottest set of eyes I have ever seen on a woman. I also was glad to see that Eli Stone is coming back in a couple weeks.

All the normal shows were good too. The ones that stood out for me are Californication, Dexter, and Worst Week. I missed the season premier of Worst Week so this was my first even though it was really the second episode. I thought it was pretty funny but I don’t expect it to last long since I have read a lot of bad reviews. It was good to see new episodes of Californication even though their episodes are very much like Entorage since they don’t really have a plot line. It is basically like they are stealing Seinfeld’s plotline of a show about nothing.

I have also watched a lot more college football than I ever have before. I think it is the combination of HD and MU being ranked so high.

You would think that I wouldn’t have time for all of this TV watching since I have a full time job and I am taking 9 hours of school semester. I guess the fact that I really don’t sleep helps out. I probably won’t watch any baseball playoff games. All I care is that the Cubs lose.
