This is probably one of those entertaining shows that won’t be having another season, but really worth a watch. Its about four friends who are all successful in their lives leading the life of luxury in New York City, but there is one part where none of them seem to get it right which is their relationship with women. I watched this show all one go because I couldn’t stop watching episode to episode, you really understand what these men are going through and how hectic things can be with women, and all the women are gorgeous in one way or another.
You can’t help but laugh at their situation, they keep comparing each other’s troubles on a daily basis and who can top of the other. One man is head of a powerful conglomerate, another is leader of a cosmetic company, one guy runs his own crisis management company, and another runs a pharmaceutical company. There is a bit of a serious undertone for some of them, but the comedy just doesn’t stop, I am really enjoying this show and I want more episodes.

I have been saving up on a lot of shows, and just recently I have started watching Heroes Season 2. Some people didn’t like the way things were going, but I didn’t care since Heroes is a show which I loved from the beginning. I knew that it was worth saving up all the episodes and watching it one go.
This season is really interesting, I like how some of the character’s powers seem to be deeper then they expected. The story behind everything is unraveling so you get to see what really happened from the beginning. I really couldn’t believe what was happening in some episodes and I was on my toes, but its great to have the next episode so I kept watching this amazing show. This writers guild strike is really getting in the way and I can only delay reaching the limit of all the shows.

This is one the shows that isn’t huge, but does have a fan following. I have been a fan of Dennis Haysbert since 24 and I really like his character in The Unit as well. I loved season one so we started season two a week ago now and we are jumping right into it, finish four to six episodes whenever we meet because each episode you finish you want to know what is next. There are lots of shows on TV right now but this is one of the easy ones that I really enjoy, and I enjoy all the characters in it, except for one of the nagging wives.
I still have to catch up with all the shows I was following, I will watch them at some point but I haven’t been able to keep up with any of them.

There is all this talk about HD-DVD and Blu-Ray, to me they are the same high quality movies and tv series that I have been seeing for the past year. I have an HD-DVD player so I decided to purchase a few old school movies that I love in HD-DVD since I could just add them to my library of movies.
Over the past week we watched the first movie which is Army of Darkness which is a cult classic from the 80s. I didn’t know what to expect but I was extremely surprised by the quality, I have to say that I give Hi Def movies a 10/10, and I could see so much in this old movie, of course the special affects weren’t too special but still the quality of the movie itself is unquestionable.
 
When we watched Lethal Weapon it looked like a high quality Indie movie, it was amazing to see Mel Gibson so young, and I do enjoy Danny Glover, he is one of the actors that I really liked form the 80s. We really enjoyed this movie and the quality the movie was amazing and nothing beats a good action movie from the 80s.
If you are thinking about going with Hi-Definition then it isn’t a mistake since it just lets you enjoy all these old movies that you love. Next on the list is Blade Runner, I have it in HD-DVD but I have to watch it with the right people, I haven’t seen it before so I don’t want to ruin my first time watching it.
For the Treki in all of us this only applies to those who love science fiction movies and television series. Star Trek has a following just like Star Wars, but they have a lot more stories involved with different twists.
I have my cousin as source of Star Trek media, but if you don’t have a source then this is for you:
- Star Trek The Original Series – The Complete Seasons 1-3 ($176)
- Star Trek: The Next Generation – The Complete Series ($300)
- Star Trek Deep Space Nine – The Complete Seasons 1-7 ($297)
- Star Trek Voyager – The Complete Seasons 1-7 ($623)
- Star Trek Enterprise – The Complete Seasons 1-4 ($329)
- Star Trek: The Animated Series ($47)
- Star Trek Movie Set ($73)
The series I’m going to be following now is Star Trek Enterprise since I keep hearing its good but I don’t have the time.

The first time I saw MASH was on Star World on the satellite channel after the Gulf War, I would come back from school and right after lunch I would sit in front of the TV to watch the show that I loved. Listening to the opening song made me feel something strange, a good feeling and somehow I knew everyone on TV. I remembered that they were in such a serious situation but always in a jovial moo, they were saving lives but thought nothing of it and they cared about each and every person that they had to heal. I love Pierce and Honnicut, they were always up to something and driving Burns and Charles mad with their antics. Klinger and Radar were the funny office clerks, and then there so many others that I enjoyed. I really did like all the characters, and now all 11 seasons are available on DVD with all the extras.

For the family guy lover this would be the perfect gift all the seasons up to season 5 part 1, you also get a lot of extras with it. I think Family Guy is one of the funniest shows on TV, to the extent that it was brought back because it was so funny after being canceled, they noticed the huge dvd sales they were getting. Now it just keeps getting better and better, Stewei and Peter are my two favorite characters.
Included in this great set:
- Family Guy Vol. 1 (Seasons 1 & 2)
- Vol. 2 (Season 3)
- Vol. 3 (Season 4, Part 1)
- Vol. 4 (Season 4, Part 2)
- Vol. 5 (Season 5, Part 1)
- Family Guy Presents Stewie Griffin – The Untold Story movie
- Family Guy ping pong paddles, net and balls, a bunch of poker chips and cards, and a clear plastic carrying case.

No Soup For You
This is one the funniest series that I could ever remember, I felt sorry for George Costanza and I just loved Kramer and all his crazy ideas and antics. This was a series that aired from 1989 to 1998 and the storyline was always filled with clever wit and funny parts. I wasn’t a huge fan of the show until I started following it, I would hate them sometimes but they would make me laugh because I hated them so much. They would complain but then things would just happen to them and make me laugh. They ended the show while it was on top so it is remembered as one of the greatest shows of American Television. And after another 10 years since ending the show they have at last released the complete series as a one package.

24 is possibly the best show on TV, and Jack Bauer is the man period. I thought season 6 was different, and some people didn’t like the ending of it but I thought it showed Jack Bauer in a different light. This time around they have completely shaken things up, this season is going to be amazing and unreal, just click the YouTube link below to see the trailer. I can’t wait for the premiere, its going to be amazing and Jack will have to do what he does best even if it kills him.
