Legion World Forums LEGION COMPANION The Anywhere Machine So what are you WATCHING?

One difference that bothered me was that the UK version's ghost was all about making tea and was visible to everyone. Just didn't seem all that tragic and ghostly, I guess.

Though the American version hooked me almost immediately, it still got MUCH better as the season went on. Not sure if anyone with a preference either way would ever warm up to the other version, though.

In Season 1, Annie is still only visible to other Supernatural creatures (Once she begins honing her powers she's able to appear). The Tea thing is kind of a coping mechanism as she tries to sort out what's going on (including her suppressed memory of how she died). It's kind of a running joke when she keeps making tea that she can't drink and the others don't really want. I found the relationship between Annie and George was what one of the things made the show.

I prefer the British version of Being Human, too.
I don't much care for the ghost girl in the American show, but the series, as a whole has been growing on me.

Did anyone watch Off the Map, Wed. on ABC?
Interns getting a second chance to do their residencies in a Central American country at a clinic.
Wonderful stuff.

Did you know that coconut milk has the same nutrients as blood plasma and was used during WWII by medics if blood wasn't available?
It's even sterile in the nut.

There's a new movie coming out called Cowboys and Aliens.
Harrison Ford is in it, which can be a plus or minus, but it looks good in the trailer I saw!

Hm. Well, what I saw was presumably the first episode and it opened with Annie opening the door for a pizza boy and talking to him. Then, the other two made a comment about her keeping out of sight since she's supposed to be dead, and that would complicate things. It's on my free DVR list and is listed as the first episode. It begins with a montage similar to how the American version begins, so I assume that's correct.

In the American version Sally (the ghost's name in this one) begins completely disconnected from anything except other supernatural beings. She can't touch anyone or anything. By the end of the season, she's just being able to hold things in her hands with a great deal of concentration. She's a long way from being able to make tea.

An episode of Happy Endings .

Best. Coming. Out. Story. Ever.

Two sl#ts and a nazi. I'll leave it at that.

Old MTM sitcoms on Hulu.

My nostalgia is harshed somewhat by the constant reminder of how much "romantic comedy" behavior is actually pretty stalker-ish and creepy. But what are you gonna' do...?

Robin Hood Season 3 was a bit of a disappointment. I recognize they lost half the cast at the end of Season 2, but the season just kept changing directions until the finale which came out of nowhere. We greatly enjoyed the first two seasons, and Season 3 had some great bits, but overall it failed to measure up to its predecessors. Shame it's all over now.

I've been watching Rocky and Bullwinkle Season 1

I've watched Stargate Universe for the run, and now it's been canceled.

They had some writing at the end of the last episode, which I couldn't catch.
Does anyone here know?
I couldn't seem to actually find any information at the official site.
sigh

For anyone who ever watched Scooby Doo in the 80s, and completely dreaded Scrappy Doo and Flim Flam, enjoy.

A new incarnation of Lingo starts Monday night on GSN. Bill Engvall will be the host, and I can't wait! I love Lingo!

I usually watch that show because the woman I watch at the nursing home watches the game show network.

Just saw Green Lantern: Emerald Knights today with the kids. Hannah loved it. I liked it well enough, and Jon liked the parts he watched in between playing with his Batman toys.

I just starting watching "Game of Thrones" and am thoroughly intrigued. Swords, sex, political machinations, beheading(s!), sex, kingdoms at stake, creepy mythical man-beasts, incestuous sex...!!

Me too! Really well done--I've only caught a few episodes here and there but its all been top notch.

My siblings (both brothers and sisters) are really into the books. They lent me the first book, which I've yet to start, but tell me I'll be totally invested in no time once I start reading, that the books are that good.

The books are that good, Cobie. Get started!

Criminal Minds. It's the only non-animated series that has totally gotten me hooked. For the record, the only animated series that did the same were Avatar: The Last Airbender and the Legion of Superheroes, natch.

Breaking Bad started Season 4 last night. Great stuff, but pretty intense. I'm glad they dealt with the cliffhanger quickly and got a status quo of sorts to work from, because i'm a lot more interested in where the characters go from here.

Napoleon (2002) a mini-series about Emperor Napoloeon I's rise, reign, and fall. It is really entertaining and well-filmed.

Dave, my wife and I are midway through Breaking Bad season 3--we just got into it a few weeks ago.

All I can say is WOW. What a mind-blowingly fantastic show! One of the best I've ever seen and worthy of all the accolades and ratings it gets. It's a show that pulls no punches and every character is totally realistic and fully realized.

Glad you like it Cobie. We were starting to get burned out on "Dexter" with all it's plot contrivances and stretches it made to maintain the Status Quo it wanted. When I mentioned this to someone, they suggested Breaking Bad and it's been great. I'm loving how every action has realistic consequences and Walt just keeps going deeper and deeper into that hole. It will be interesting to see him fully "Break Bad" as the show progresses.

My wife and i were looking for stuff to watch during the summer and decided to rent "Weeds" Now we bought all the seasons on the cheap from Amazon. Good show! It's a bit all over the place sometimes with their stories, but very entertaining!

We're watching Weeds on Netflix Canada right now. We're about midway through the second season. It's been really fun, and this season seems to be finding its groove a bit better than the first season which, as you said, didn't seem to know what kind of show it wanted to be at times.

Hot in Cleveland. Betty White is still hillarious!

Rupaul's Drag U... oddly addictive...
