okay then…

So maybe everyone doesn’t share my opinion of the ending of The Soprano’s.

Let’s just put that all behind us now and focus on the future! With that show done, I need to find another show to watch (you have to have at least one)… Though with 60 Minutes coming (almost) back to form with the return of Mike Wallace, I could maybe get away with that one. But I am still embittered by the decline it went through after the loss of Wallace and Bradley last year… Especially with this Scott Pelley fellow, I don’t mean to sound harsh, but I just don’t get him. He seems disingenuous to me.

Anyway. I think I may try and get more involved in Big Love. I watched pieces of the last season, enough to get some level of interest, and now that the new season has started, I think I can do that. It’s a pretty good drama and it’s hard not to watch anything with Harry Dean Stanton. And after Aliens and Boxing Helena, I do rather like Bill Paxton.

What I am really waiting for is Flight of the Conchords! The little bit they have on “On Demand” is about the funniest thing I have seen in a great while and it leaves us desperate for more! Wonderfully funny (and not mean, like so much comedy today) musical numbers. Brilliant raps! And very charming!

I don’t know if their series will keep up the steam, but I am certainly going to give it a shot. Is this the beginning of New Zealand’s cultural renaissance?

Oh yes, and fulfilling this site’s role as a repository for all of my media experiences, I have decided to add a book page. It is slim pickings right now, as I am only going to add books when I finish reading them (sort of a stretch at times) and I am starting just with my most recent. But hopefully it will fill out as the months go on… Books.
