TV & Movie Talk For St. Petersburg and Tampabay

TV & Movies We Love
The Event
Sitting here waiting for 'The Event' to come on. I have to say that it has sucked me in quick. Nice story line and intriguing characters. I like syfy a lot so the alien thing is right up my ally. It appears there might be split among the aliens as to how to treat the humans. Apparently they have some awesome technology they could unleash if they desired. We'll see. Anyway a good start to a new series. Of course I like it so that is usually the kiss of death, on the other hand it is played out kinda like Lost which was super popular.

Movie 'The Girl With The Dragon Tatoo'
Wow! This is one of those cases where the movie is way better than the book. I highly recommend it. I had tired to read the book but found it way to boring and moving at a snails pace. The movie is the opposite, it moves right along. I'm glad I tried the movie versioin of the story. Plus its nice to watch a good movie when you don't know any of the actors. It is subtitled and a little jerky in flow compared to an American movie but good non-the-less.

Persons Unknown
I have been watching that persons unknown also. I guess they brain washed Joe (again) and now he doesn't remember anyone. I am sure he will start to remember before to long. Nice little show though and I do hope they wrap it up at the end of summer like they promised.

Persons Unknown
Persons Unknown is moving along pretty well. They promise to wrap it up by end of summer so we will see but it is going forward at an acceptable rate. This summer heat has turned me into a real couch potato. By the time I get home after working all day in the heat I can only sit on the couch and veg. Mad Men started on Sunday and that's a good thing. So is baseball. I generally tevo several shows during the week and watch baseball. That way I have several shows to watch and make a night of my favs. What a life huh? Living the dream.

Louie
Rescue Me started off its new season on a very serious note. I hope they are not getting into this serious drama mode and forgetting the comedy. That can be a funny show and they seem to be able to mix up the drama with the comedy pretty well but enough with the drinking, we all know Tommy Gavin fights alcoholism, we get it now can we move on.
After Rescue Me a new comedy series started called Louie. A combination of stand-up and situational comedy. The frist two episodes were very funny. Warning here though is the humor is very adult but very funny. Not for the sensitive types I would imagine.

Persons Unknown
I have been watching Persons Unknown and like it quite a bit. I missed the time change last Monday so I missed the show. Hulu.com had it up for view the next day so I was able to catch it there. I have used Hulu a few times to see shows I have missed or forgot to tevo. Its a great website but this week they are starting to charge for some of the shows by having a monthly fee of about 10.00. I hope that doesn't mean the whole site is going to be fee based. I hardly ever use it but when I need it like this week its great to have.

Lost again
After seeing the Lost final I have to say it was really great. It ended perfectly if you ask me. Everyone got back together and were happy at the end. What more could you ask for?

Lost
So I guess Jack is going to take over for Jacob but with this show you never know. Sunday will be a relief. I have been watching this show since the begining and they wandered around for a long time but it was almost always interesting. It actually will be good to wind it up. I hope Jin and Sun come back to like however and Syaid. That would be sweet.

Fringe
This system they have with brighthouse to tevo tv shows is not so hot. I liked the system they had on before much better. I have missed several shows because I have it set up to record them and it doesn't do it. Last night's Fringe being the latest. Fortunately I went to www.hulu.com and watched it today. Now that's a nice site.

Frozen River
I saw a small indie film last night called 'Frozen River'. It was down beat film but done real well. The acting was good and the story was good.
Its about smuggling people into the US from Canada across a frozen river. The smuggling is done by two women, one white and one American Indian. Both of the women are done on their luck and do it for money they desperately need.
Definetly not a feel good moive even though in the end they tried to make turn out ok, but good none-the-less and worth a watch.
