TV Update

Sons of Anarchy:
Season 2 ended this passed Tuesday and it was fantastic. The entire season, start to finish was awesome. Incredible job from everyone who works on this show. Action, suspense, funny shit, drama like you wouldn’t believe with an incredibly satisfying end that sets up another season. This show has some of the best characters around, a real achievement for when a character gets hurt or dies you actually care.

Nip/Tuck:
Going strong! Really happy to see it. 7th episode just aired of season 6 and it was fantastic. Really brought things back to classic N/T with focusing on Sean and Christian’s core relationship with those closest. Really great writing that made Sean, Chrisitian and especially Kimber show what their characters really are (arguably the 3 pillars of the show). The custody battle was put to rest last episode (much faster than I thought) which probably means it marks the end of Julia’s mother on the show. The real dramatic shit is with Matt in jail. They put his ass in THE nightmare prison and he killed a dude to survive. Epic to say the least, next week should show his fate.

The show finished filming in the summer, for some reason FX is “splitting” it in half, airing 9 episodes taking a week or so off and then airing the last 9 episodes as “season 7” starting January 6th. Weird but a hell of a lot better than the first rumored “first half in 2010, end in 2011” idea when the show was filming.

Dexter:
I’ve read a lot of backlash for the show (low kill count! Rita sucks!) but I’m really digging it. 10 episodes in and this storyline has really hit it’s stride. I was worried at the end of 9 because there was a crazy end that could have sent the show into creative skullduggary. Holy shit did they come through. There’s 3 or 4 episodes left, I can’t wait.

Californication:
Not much to say, Hank Moody is Hank Moody and I love it.

Fringe:
After a long hiatus, my fav sci fi show is back and it’s still awesome.

Dollhouse:
The asses at FOX abandon another great show. At least they are giving the show the chance to end, but they’re rushing it off TV by airing 2 episodes at a time for the next month to burn through the remaining episodes. Joss Weadon needs to stay the hell away from these moes.

Always Sunny In Philadelphia:
One episode left in the season, god I love this show.

FX is the channel to beat. Their original programming is unstoppable.

Beau has bounced back.

He was knocked for a loop for 2 days from surgery. Third day he made a big turn and was feeling more like himself and by the 6th day he had his bounce back to his step.

10th day the stitches came out (quick little vet visit) and so now he’s cruising around just a little bit lighter.

In other updates, I rebooted my computer yesterday and the net came back with it. So I will now say that the bug is gone. Haven’t updated anything so I have no idea what fixed it.

I got my rebate for the Droid on Friday. So that’s a hundo put back in the bank. I like that.
