Watched like, eight episodes of Freaks and Geeks, to finish the show in it's entirety for the second time.

I wish that they had made more episodes, but somehow...it feels complete.

There are weak spots, but they're few and far between the great scripts, chemistry between actors, and the performances themselves. On its way to becoming my favorite show.

I dunno what to classify this show as. It's certainly sci-fi... but I'm thinking the proper term might be sci-fi/horror. Or sci-fi/horror/mystery/whatever. <_<

Also, episode that delves into the characters FTW.

Lost

The episodes in this final season were great. Built everything up perfectly, and while I had minor qualms with a couple episodes, I was fine with how the show was going to end. And how it ended. This final episode blew away all my expectations and then some. All my questions were answered and the show as a whole was brought closure while still leaving room for interpretation. I'll be honest, I haven't been this emotional over characters in a long time.
Spoiler:
Especially when each of the characters "remembers" in the sideways-reality. And then the very last scene with Jack mirroring the first scene in the first episode.
This episode beats out all the other Lost episodes. The Constant, Through The Looking Glass, Walkabout, all of them. This was the best Lost episode and one of the greatest episodes of tv. They sent this show off perfectly.

Gonna miss it.

That is my feelings exactly.

Okay I've said that this show is the only show that is kinda hard for me to see what's coming next and it's never surprised me.

Series finale did just that.

specially with the sideways reality being a waiting place for them all after they die.

Parasite worm episode was great. So wasn't the thinking computer one.

I <3 the X-Files.

Smash Cuts.

Aside from the teen-ish hosts, I love the show. It's AFV but with more explosions and people getting hurt.

The Sopranos. I started about a week ago, I guess. I'm halfway through season three now. This show has yet to leave me unimpressed. If not for the constant profanity, occasional brutality, and presence of nudity/sexuality (at least one scene per episode with an exception or two), I'd recommend this in a heartbeat for its sheer awesomeness. But... with all that in mind... I can't recommend it in good conscience 'round here.

If I remember correctly, you'll have just gone through a veeery brutal episode (Employee of the Month) and are about to watch the episode with the most brutal scene of the series (University). :|

Anyway, I just watched... well, the Sopranos. XD
A couple of episodes towards the end of Season 6 part 1... They spent too much time on Vito Spatafore.

I need to watch The Sopranos.

And you Sopranos fans need to watch The Wire.

Employee of the Month was nothing short of horrifying. I was like... wow. And University made me cry. Not the same kind of horrifying for some reason, but even more heartbreaking.

Once I finish the Sopranos, I'll give The Wire a run. Thanks for the tip.

Rescue Me.

Borrowing the first season from a friend, and finally found some time to watch a couple episodes. It's... rather good. Serious bzniz yet still finds time to be funny. Do like, even though I'm just two episodes in. :p

That's one of my favorite shows. I need to start watching again.
