I just got into The Wire last month, in the 2nd season now. Pretty awesome show.
I'm tempted to watch the whole thing through again, having just finished it.
I re-watched the first episode last night, and the first scene is goddamn perfect.

Neither the whole of truth nor the whole of good is revealed to any single observer, although each observer gains a partial superiority of insight from the peculiar position in which he stands. It is enough to ask of each of us that he should be faithful to his own opportunities and make the most of his own blessings, without presuming to regulate the rest of the vast field.
I think everyone was late to the party with arrested development. Probably why it got cancelled prematurely. Out of all the people I know that are in love with that show I don't think any of them were watching while it was on the air.
Heroes. Started watching it when I had a free trial of Netflix this year and I was like "Damn, everybody who was all excited about this show back in 2006-07 or whenever that was was right." This was roughly the same time NBC said "Oh hey, it's canceled." Well, shit.
But really this is me with most things. TV shows, games, etc. Even the rare TV show that I start out on top of, I end up months or whole seasons behind because of school.
I just watched Shawshank Redemption for the first time last week, and just saw Green Mile last year.
Time to catch up on all those depressing movies

A magician gives you a ring that, when worn, will let you see the world as it truly is.
However, the ring will never leave your finger, and you will be unable to ever describe to another living person what you see.

Wait til you get to season 2, you'll understand why it got cancelled.
In fact don't. Stop watching just before the end of season 1 and you can spend the rest of your life thinking Heroes was a fantastic show.
Also, you (you being everyone in this thread) should see if you can get hold of a box set or something of 'MisFits'. It's a sort of British take on Heroes and it is awesome.

I've seen Season 2. It's not that bad, you can just tell they got totally screwed by the writers strike and it left plotlines aborted or sloppily done.
I am amused/repulsed at ABC's transparent attempt to fill the void left by Heroes with that shitty looking "No Ordinary Family."

Psych. I've heard how great it is for quite a while, but I just started checking it out last month when they added seasons 1-4 on Netflix streaming. I've consumed 3 seasons in about 4 weeks. It's so awesome.

I'm actually pretty late to the game when it comes to most things especially tv shows or books. I just like waiting until I hear from a substantial number of people that something is quality before I devote any time to it. the upside to this is that almost every show or book I invest myself in is usually awesome.
I'm a busy man, let everyone else sift through all the crap.

Or it could be that the one episode I saw was abnormally stupid
I'll always give something a second chance, but I'm not holding out much hope

Also it took me awhile to get into Law and Order: SVU but that's probably because it started when i was in 8th grade

Bones is great. I think I watched all of the seasons in one month.
Now I have no more bones.
what cold dark pit did you claw your way out of?

All Boned out.
On a related note, Emily Deschanel is cuter that Zooey.
Was it the one with the vampires
Castle is a pretty fun show but that episode made my brain ache
Agreed.
I enjoyed the episode that Zooey was in. Quoting Ben Franklin all the time.
How's it feel to be wrong?
It was only early last year that I discovered how awesome Journey is.
you son of a bitch
e: also, haha I love that SE++ is just now discovering journey. that reminds me of my college years when I discovered them.

The band, not the food. They've been coming up on my Pandora a lot recent and I like all their songs so far.

Whaaaa?
I remember being around 4 or 5 and my dad declaring it house cleaning time by blasting Journey (and some other stuff like ACDC, Asia, etc).
Guess that wasn't a common thing...

Either kind.

I think they are both pretty but I want to steal Zooey's dresses.
