Lost_all_photo_01_lgUggh… JJ Abrams is driving me nuts. It seems that he and the writers come up with so many twists and turns that even they’re confused about it. Each episode is like alright-now-what type of moments. All these questions and mystery yet no resolve whatsoever. Plus they focus more on Jack, Kate and Sawyer during their encounter with the Others, jooooyyy… *roll eyes* The three characters I care the least about and the "mysterious" hobos, fan-freakin-tastic. It’s like the whole Rambaldi hoopla in Alias. I personally call this whole fiasco JJ Abrams’ curse of the third season.

It’s like the less cheesier version of Mutant X with better writing and more mystery. There’s actual character development in this show which is a nice change. It doesn’t center on just one character and it’s pretty fast paced (so far).  All the characters are linked but only a handfull have met, you don’t really know who the bad guy is and they need to stop a murderer to prevent a nuclear explosion (confused? me too but it’s a good type of confusion). The only concern I have is that it gets too complicated with too many character and they lose focus. Hrmm… fingers crossed on this one.

This show I find quite interesting. It was a movie first and usually movie turn tv shows suck but this one’s actually good. They have a good cast, the writing great but then again what can’t you do with a big budget. Only problem they have is ratings. I heard they show this the same time as Monday night football which is stupid and a damn shame. It’s about a small town that’s totally obsessed with football. It revolves around a highschool football team trying to go through to the championship and all that. As far as highschool teen shows goes, this one’s much grittier. Personally I could care less about whiney rich teens that you find in shows like the OC *roll eyes* I really hope this show doesn’t get the sack just because it’s slotted in the wrong time.

Aaron Sorkin, need I say more? Great writing and some of the cast from West Wing is in it, which is always a good thing. And then there’s Matthew Perry, a nice change from his character in Friends (Chandler was always my favorite character). It’s basically a behind the scenes look at an SNL type show. Seriously, go watch this one!

So that’s what I’ve been watching so far :P Felt like putting in my two cents. We need more shows like these instead of pointless reality tv, addictive it may be. OK toodles!!!!
