Anywho. Where are my True Blood people? I started reading the books. I'm on book 6 now. *blushes* I've fallen victim to the vampire trend! Gah!!!!

I'm loving the series. Some of us have already discussed the show in this thread. It's getting better and better, and now Alexander Skarsgård (from HBO's Generation Kill and son of actor Stellan Skarsgård) has entered the picture as the brooding "oldest vampire" Eric.

Ahhh, I couldn't figure out how I know that guy and I just finished watching Generation Kill!  Wow, it must have been the hair.

Yeah, I've talked about it with someone on the board. They was wondering what the theme song was...

i have no idea if this is what you're talking about at all---so ignore it if it's not---i saw a preview for the new christian slater show last night and they played a kasabian song?

I might like them if they had a different vocalist (my recurring complaint with stoner rock)

All right.  I just gave about 30 minutes of my life to Clutch and I may be more in the True camp.  I like the musical vibe but, dude's voice is just killing me.

His voice is grating, but the jams are fucking good... and Soup, did you watch any of the Canadian English Language Electoral TV debate last night?  ;)

OK, finally got to see Ep 2 and 3 of True Blood. Fangtastic.

I recorded that and I watch it over and over.  I watch instead of the Rays games, instead of the NFL, instead of the Amazing Race, Amazing Cakes, Ace of Cakes, the Amazing Case of the Racing Cakes...everything.

Were any formal apologies made for misspelling basic words like center and color?

Why Americanize basic words after all these years?  :)

Actually, the Canadian debates have been entertaining and vicious without skirting the issues.

Anyone out there finding the SNL Palin parodies tedious? Sure Fey nails the imitation, but the skits get old fast and Palin herself is an easy target.

I can't wait to see 'Testees' - from the twisted mind of Kenny Hotz (of my favourite Canadian show Kenny vs. Spenny).  It premieres on FX on Thursday.

Plus I cant think of a channel with a better track record

I cant think of an FX show I havent liked

And since 'Its Always Sunny' is their only other comedy, this must be pretty good

I can't wait to get the DVDs. Too bad Simon has put in a couple of duds recently - his latest is getting pounded by the critics. I'm not a big fan of Hot Fuzz either (the fil would have worked better ten years ago), but it still had some good moments.

bearass

it took me a couple of watches to like hot fuzz but now i think i like it better than shaun of the dead havent seen run fat boy run yet but im interested

The "gunfight" in series two is one of the finest moments in television history.  Absolutely hilarious.

Love Spaced! Love Shaun! Like Hot Fuzz a lot!
Yeah I haven't bothered with Simon's last few movies...shame he isn't getting the scripts. Any thoughts on Scotty?  ;)

God will forgive them. He'll forgive them and allow them into Heaven.....I can't live with that.
