Square Eyes

If anyone asked, I would say that I didn't watch a lot of television, but perhaps I'm not really telling the truth these days.

I sporadically catch the odd EastEnders episode, but since they've recently killed off the only good-looking bloke on there, I won't be tuning in again.

Also been switching on and off for Celebrity Big Brother - is it me but there actually seems to be one vaguely "normal" person in there, Ordinary Boy Samuel Preston? Usually, the whole house is full of freaks and celebrity wannabes.

Lost has just finished and I wasn't disappointed with the ending, just gagging for more! Intriguing storyline, beautiful actors/actresses, it's been a great series and I can't wait for season 2 to find out what happens next.

Season 2 of Desperate Housewives starts in the meantime - I didn't think this would be the kind of programme I would enjoy, but I love it cos I think it's really funny.

Sea of Souls started last week - BBC drama at its best about a paranormal unit based in Scotland.

Anyone watching Life on Mars? Detective is involved in a car accident in 2006 and when he wakes up, he's gone back in time to 1973. Cue classic Ford Cortinas, wide collars and lapels, good old fashioned 70's sexism. Likeable characters make this great viewing.

Finally, after catching the tantalising adverts for the programme, I've been drawn into Invasion. Appears to be military/government conspiracy hiding alien invasion, "abductees" acting a bit strange when they return, etc. Interesting stuff.

Any more vegging in front of the tv, I'll be a major couch potato, but I guess it makes a change from vegging in front of my pc.

  1. Yeah, have been hearing how great Battlestar Galactica is but I don't have Sky. If I did, I would have no life outside of TV-land! :)

  2. Lost is excellent and we finally had a new ep on Wed. I catch Battlestar Galactica off and on but since my viewing was so sporadic I have to wait to get the DVD set to watch it.

    And don't forget about Firefly. :)

  4. I can't wait for the next series of lost. On Ebay you can get up to episode 9 but I'm going to wait until the full set is available.
