If you like Deadwood on HBO, here is where you can find out which characters were real people and how true the story is.

Lame. So lame that if Christ came back to Earth today, even He couldn't make it walk.

wolf.

Two big clues -- it was on SciFi, the channel that will be bringing us "Man-Thing" and is already responsible for a couple giant snake shows. Secondly....well, it just looked dumb. For good end-of-times scares, there's an old movie about Christians being herded up and guillotined when they won't get the mark of the beast. Can't remember the name, but it's from about 1980 or so, so it has that grainy, spooky 70s look.

I caught the rebroadcast too... if I can give it credit for one thing, the cinematography is really good.

I've got a theory about "24". Since Jack never eats or excretes, I suspect he actually consumes torture to survive. I was a bit worried he wouldn't get to torture anyone last night, but luckily he got rid of that pesky "Amnesty Global" lawyer just in time to break a few fingers before the end of the hour.

Well BigBrother has started again, currently just over 2 weeks into the house. The people arent so attractive to watch this year - and we have had one guy calles "logan" but he is actually an idenitical twin and throughout the show they had been switching the two "logans" every day or so.. it was quite funny to watch until one other housemate came up with the twin theory and busted them. so now thye are both in the house.

i dont usually like it but my partner insists that we watch it for "social" reasons.. pfft..

Lookout, Sun Sparkz is talking about the Aussie version. I'm glad that she has a low opinion of it. What a waste of time watching a house full of young morons, acting like goats. Unfortunately I end up seeing a few minutes of it during the week, because I tape the next show that follows it, on a few nights, and it always runs overtime. What a waste of TV time! (I know it gets top ratings - dunno why).

about the only thing I watch on a 'when I can' basis is the simpsons, although futurama is quickly overtaking that.. much better show *ducking*, law and order in all it's forms aqua teen hunger force, southpark.. and damn near anything on the WWII.. Uh.. I mean History channel.. although I have to watch them at friends houses as I refuse to pay for cable.. but I do bring beer and other assorted goodies
