Done with X-Files Season Two. Ends on a cliffhanger, can't wait to see how it continues. Of the episodes I saw today, Soft Light had a real downer ending that depressed me a bit. Not for long though, it's just a fictional show after all.

Within just two seasons it's become one of my favorite shows, but I've heard the quality decreases as the seasons go on.

Sanctuary.

At times, I wonder why I watch this show. Then there's an episode that just casually mentions Jack the Ripper teleporting to Hitler's private opera box and shanking him and I keep watching.

The IT Crowd. If you're a nerd, or if you like British comedy at all, go watch this. NOW. (Seriously, it's on Netflix streaming and everything.)

Breaking Bad - the new episode. That was brutal.

Doctor Who

Finally caught up. Holy crap. What a way to end the first half of this season. So many interesting plot points, and *As River Song would say, "Spoilers!"*
Spoiler:
River Song is Amy and Rory's daughter! :O
If there's a better science fiction show currently airing (I.E. Still being made), then I don't know what it is.


Star Trek: Deep Space Nine

Got through seasons 4 and 5 over the past few weeks. So much awesome stuff. The Dominion invasion was epic, and I started season 6 today. So far, this show is now my favorite Star Trek series. Ever.

Doctor Who started annoying me after the first few seasons. XD

And I adored the old Tom Baker version.

Two episodes of the Masters of Horror show. I borrowed 3 DVDs of that show from a friend of mine. It's a show where acclaimed horror directors are invited to make a 50 minute horror movie.

I saw Sounds Like, about a guy with super enhanced hearing who goes crazy from all the noise and starts killing, and We All Scream For Ice Cream, about a group of friends who in their youth accidentally killed a mentally challenged ice cream vendor and he enacts revenge from beyond the grave. Both episodes were pretty creepy while still being fairly low on blood&gore.

I have 5 more episodes of the show, looking forward to watching them.

That show looked interesting to me. I'd probably check it out if it moved to a channel that would edit language and things like that out.

Annd i saw The Closer. Still love this show

The X-Files, Season 3, episode Clyde Bruckman's Final Repose. I'm impressed by the quality of writing of this episode. It's fairly dark and has some gruesome content as X-Files often has, but it's also very funny and just very smartly written, and the guy who plays the titular character does a great job.

After I watched it I checked online to see how this episode was received. It turns out it won an Emmy for outstanding writing in a drama show, and it's a very revered episode by the makers of the show and fans. TV Guide named it as the 10th greatest episode (of all shows, not just X-Files) in TV history. I recommend this intelligent episode for all fans of the show.

Over the half-way point with X-Files Season 3.

Grotesque is a pretty terrifying episode, one of the most disturbing ones I've seen thus far. The images of all the drawn and sculpted gargoyles are very creepy, coupled with Mulder's deteriorating mental state it makes for an unpleasant feeling while watching. When you find out who the killer is, it can be called a case of the old saying "stare too long into the abyss and the abyss stares back into you".

Oubliette is also pretty disturbing and a bit depressing. It's about a sexual predator, the kind of stuff that could really happen, unlike typical episodes about murdering cockroaches (another one I've watched tonight) and that sort of stuff, so it's all the more disturbing. Somehow a life lost to a sexual predator affects me more than a life lost to killer cockroaches, because I take that kind of stuff less seriously.

The cockroach episode was hilarious though and disgusting. Fun stuff.

Syzygy was one of the weaker ones I've watched, Mulder and Scully act in a very strange, atypical way to each other, very different from how they usually act.

I actually just watched that episode about two months ago. So freaking weird and unsettling.

Syzygy is more notable for having Ryan Reynolds as the first guy to die, I think, than it is for having anything more than an interesting premise.

(Sorry, I'm on my own X-Files run; in the early part of season 5, which definitely has some of the weaker episodes so far.)
