I had this on my list for a couple of months now and decided to watch it based on this. I have to say that it was...ummmm.....how shall I say it? UNNERVING! The trip to Las Vegas made was one of the most awkward scenes I have ever watched. Certainly a strange bunch. Also checked out Tiffany's playboy shots based on this - not bad at all.Watching Sparticus now. The women in this are incredibly attractive. So far the red head is leading the way for me.
I went to elementary school with spartacus's wife. Back then she was known as cookie but decided too go woth erin professionally since cookie cummings sound like a porn name.
I haven't seen this but it looks like there might be some excellent music.
Firfly is that good. I was very pissed off at Fox for screwing the series over by playing it out of order and not giving it enough time to gain a gathering. I stopped watching fox for several years because of this.
She was very attractive. I was disappointed that she wasn't on screen more.
We cut the cable and the nearly 24/7 reality shows. I got my fix here.
MUST SEE TV!
No way, Reaper ruled. AND awesome since My DVR missed the entire second season.This Tiffany doc has me interested. Might watch during my break todayAdded Reaper seasons 1 and 2.
I've been the same way with Heroes lately. Currently in the middle of season 3.
Loved this show! Missed much of Season 2. Thanks.No way, Reaper ruled. AND awesome since My DVR missed the entire second season.This Tiffany doc has me interested. Might watch during my break todayAdded Reaper seasons 1 and 2.
I have been hesitant to invest time in either show. It seems that both start off really fast with a ton of promise and start to lose focus/direction pretty quickly and steadily decline until they got canceled after their fourth season.I know this can be said about a lot of shows but I find it really disappointing when shows show so much promise early on and fail to deliver on their momentum.I've been the same way with Heroes lately.

I've seen the first three seasons of Prison Break, really no interest in watching any more of it. First season was awesome, 2nd was tolerable, and third was a joke.I've only seen the first season of Heroes, really no interest in watching any more of it, but it was also very good.I have been hesitant to invest time in either show.

That's a problem for me because I have a weird compulsion where I have to see things through to the finish. Even if something sucks I will watch to the end because I have invested time in the beginning (yes I know it's like throwing good money after bad). I have walked out of two movies in my life, City Heat and Deadly Friend, (and for some odd, odd reason I want to revisit both) and I know I have sat through far worse since.So that puts me 80+ episodes into each series and I am not sure if I want to invest that kind of time when there are good shows out there (e.g. Lost) that I haven't seen yet.I've seen the first three seasons of Prison Break, really no interest in watching any more of it.

I would definitely recommend Season 1 of both.
If you like seeing things through to the end, don't start Lost. Probably the best 1st season of any show I've ever seen, a very good second season, and then around and around for another 4 seasons. This show was so good at creating mystery and asking questions, but when it came time to explain anything it failed miserably.That's a problem for me because I have a weird compulsion where I have to see things through to the finish.

Lost was still a good show overall IMO. I barely remember Season 1 though and plan on watching them all again in order soon. It probably has a different feel the second time around.
It was a very watchable show. Even the seasons and storylines I didn't really care for had me staying up late and watching one more episode. Crack is addicting too.1st season was the only time a series actually gave me goosebumps.
Yeah I am a little worried about Lost too (never seen even a minute of a single episode but when I started to hear people talking about a 'Smoke monster' I figured the writers were just throwing #### against the wall to see if anything stuck). It seems pretty common that show creators put together really good ideas for a show concept and first season story arc but then take a wait-and-see-if-it-gets-picked-up approach before investing time deciding what to do if the show is a success. This leads to many (most) shows becoming stale and disjointed until they inevitably jump the shark and suffer a lingering death.
I think you're ahead of the game then. I really enjoyed the series but it took me the pilot and the first 3-4 episodes to comprehend what was going on. Love me some BSG.
It is.I think I am going to invest my time watching BSG for the third time before starting on lost.
The Pilot isn't in season 1?
The way it was originally aired they showed the pilot first and then started the season. I think on the discs the pilot is broken up as the first few episodes. I never remember right.
First 2 are considered a mini series. It's in season 1 though on Netflix
I disagree. For me, season 1 was awesome on Lost, then season 2 was a disaster (while they tried to figure out what direction to take the show), then the rest of the seasons were very good. Not to the level of the first season, but above just about any other network drama.I'll remember some mental snapshots from that show for the rest of my life, like Charlie's hand.hooter311 said:
Oh ####. Totally agree with this and can't believe I didn't post about it before. My wife and I watched this the other night and it was crazy. RIYL King of Kong.
I loved this show as much as anyone when it was on. But I don't think watching it now would be the same experience. Half the fun was the crazy theories you'd read online about what people thought was happening and would happen. You'll either love or hate the conclusion. I liked it, I thought it worked really well.
Yea. Holy #### that was a bad movie. I wish I had those last 90 minutes back. Awful.
I stopped after season 2, just too much other better stuff to watch.
Maybe I need to give this another try. I watched the first few episodes based on the hype and was disappointed. It simply isn't all that. And I'm a huge Buffy fan (own all 6 seasons on DVD) and Dollhouse fan (watched it religiously until they canceled it). Serenity was an average movie. The episodes of Firefly I saw were much the same. Not bad. Not great. Does it warm up after episode 5 or something?
I think Firefly is pretty much what I said in my quote above. The hype is based on its potential which was significant. The reality of the existing material is only above average. Although I think Serenity was above average and actually quite good as a stand alone feature.
No idea if these are on Netflix or if you've already seen them (would be a bit suprised anyone missed these actually) but the series I'd recommend would be...DexterThe WireEntourageThe SopranosCurb Your Enthusiasm
I'm too lazy to go back through the thread, but I watched Party Down this weekend on what I remember being a recommendation from this thread. What a great show. I ended up watching the whole series in two days.
It may have been me hyping it. I loved it as well. Is there a season 3 coming?
Queue up Lost. I had never seen it either. Great stuff.That's a problem for me because I have a weird compulsion where I have to see things through to the finish.
