Hello World,
In regards to watching TV, Films and such I don't tend to watch things when their popular or when the air time is. I'm a big fan of DVR, streaming video, and renting things. I like watching things on my term without the commercials. The funny thing is that I recently signed up for Netflixs. I've had it before when it was brand new and the turn around time and selection was low. I decided to try it again when the started offering the streaming on the Wii. Well lets just say I think its the greatest inventions for couch potatoes the world over. I don't think I've been disappointment with it but once and it was cause I doesn't stream on my old Mac. (Pre Intell Chip but it still works like a dream) If your into Movies and TV you have got to get this very cheap service. I have saved so much money with renting things and entertaining myself. $10 vs $100 a month?!
The Funniest thing that has come about because of the Netflixs is that I'm starting to catch up on TV shows that I decided not to follow for what ever reason. For the last month when I haven't been working, or producing "As you Like It" I have been watching Lost. I know laugh at me, that is so 2 years ago. I don't care, it was AMAZING!!!! I got the hype before, I watched a few episodes thought it was interesting. However I had class and then 2 seasons later had no idea what the hell was going on. I'm actually sort of glad I was not caught up in the immediate hype when it happened. I would of had no life! LOL J. J. Abrams does a great job in creating interesting concepts and story lines. He knows what people want and how to give it to them. Oh if only I could be a fly on the wall in his office! Or better yet work for him. I do have to say though that when I started re watching the series from beginning to end I did guess the end by the third episode. I'm still debating on how much was, hell, heaven, limbo and earth but I knew that they were all dead. The one thing that bothered me was that at the end the iconography got a little heavy handed. In some ways keeping track of all of the story lines was like reading Dune. It was fun, I enjoyed it, now I can move on into my next obsession, GLEE!!! LOL which is the only show I currently tune into when it airs. Not this week though, sad face, it hell week. Which is why I love DVR!
