Title: I want to thank you guys Post by: hal on May 01, 2007, 06:05:40 PM By reading posts here I came away with some goals. I have not had television access for some 5 years. My media access is through Itunes. I got recommendations for dogfights (really great large replay value). but you conversion about heroes has caused me to start downloading that. Well words fail me, great writing with great visual effects. Please don't stop commenting on media you find entertining and thank you all for your thoughts.

Title: Re: I want to thank you guys Post by: Samwise on May 01, 2007, 08:31:07 PM What hal said. I've gotten turned on to a lot of good stuff through f13.
Also.... KITTENS! (http://www.forumspile.com/Kittens/Kitten_185.jpg) Title: Re: I want to thank you guys Post by: squirrel on May 02, 2007, 12:45:33 AM Kittens are so 5 minutes ago. It's all about puppies now.

Well that and noone else would have me. Different thread.

My kitten is the cutest. Title: Re: I want to thank you guys Post by: squirrel on May 02, 2007, 01:23:05 AM I beg to differ (my dog at 4 months)

My random picks: Doctor Katz. (Season 1 and 2 are available on DVD now) The Shield. Most John Carpenter movies, but especially The Thing and They Live. Hellraiser 1 and 2. You cannot go wrong listening to me, my taste is unimpeachable! Title: Re: I want to thank you guys Post by: schild on May 02, 2007, 02:24:45 AM I dunno. Doctor Katz is pretty unbearable.
Title: Re: I want to thank you guys Post by: FatuousTwat on May 02, 2007, 05:26:13 AM That was my favourite show when we first got cable... I think that was 11 years ago.
Title: Re: I want to thank you guys Post by: Azazel on May 02, 2007, 06:15:40 AM Arrested Development
South Park (especially the recent seasons) Rome Title: Re: I want to thank you guys Post by: Yegolev on May 02, 2007, 06:56:42 AM I rewatched some Venture Bros. this past weekend. I need more.
Title: Re: I want to thank you guys Post by: Soukyan on May 02, 2007, 07:38:49 AM Arrested Development is a good one.
Pretty old at this point, but my still one of my favorites: Six Feet Under. I don't watch television either so I'm afraid I am short on recommendations. The BBC Planet Earth documentary series just came out on DVD last week in the US and it is phenomenal if you like nature documentaries. If not... I have seen a couple episodes of Rome. It was interesting. I'm not sure why I never watched more. The Sarah Silverman Program can be funny if you like her style. I don't, but I still get some laughs from the show. Title: Re: I want to thank you guys Post by: Mr_PeaCH on May 02, 2007, 10:22:26 AM I'm in a huge Cable Series on DVD kick right now. Rome delivers; so did Deadwood (seasons 1 and 2). Considering 6 Feet Under next.
Title: Re: I want to thank you guys Post by: Llava on May 02, 2007, 11:49:01 AM I love Dr. Katz.
"I was walking to the store and I passed a house with a guy hammering on the roof. And I heard him call me a 'paranoid little weirdo'. In Morse code." Title: Re: I want to thank you guys Post by: Velorath on May 02, 2007, 11:51:43 AM My kitten is the cutest. Kittens are almost always cute. Then they become cats. Title: Re: I want to thank you guys Post by: Furiously on May 02, 2007, 12:02:48 PM My kitten is the cutest. Kittens are almost always cute. Then they become cats. There are ways around that.... Title: Re: I want to thank you guys Post by: Morfiend on May 02, 2007, 03:30:13 PM Rome
The Shield Those two should keep you entertained for a decent while. Title: Re: I want to thank you guys Post by: hal on May 02, 2007, 03:40:22 PM not getting hits from these titles on itunes. I will try the local video store but I am wondering if other media servers might be worth a try.
Title: Re: I want to thank you guys Post by: Tragny on May 02, 2007, 10:36:45 PM I thoroughly enjoyed Rome. I lately watched Prison Break, which I found enjoyable and would recommend. I like Sarah Silverman's stuff usually, but the first episode of her new show fell totally flat to me and I haven't even considered giving it a second shot. I've also been watching Family Guy. Stewie doing the "this is my rifle, this is my gun" bit from Full Metal Jacket was golden.
Title: Re: I want to thank you guys Post by: schild on May 02, 2007, 10:40:14 PM Rome is the only show I can think of consistently as good as Heroes.
Title: Re: I want to thank you guys Post by: Xerapis on May 03, 2007, 03:02:12 AM The important thing to note is that my kitten is about to start playing WOW. :D
And I'm very ready for him to reach a more cat-like status. But first he needs to start grinding his house-broken skills. Peeing in the corner because it's cold and dark and you don't want to cross the house to use the litter box is UNSAT. Title: Re: I want to thank you guys Post by: Trippy on May 03, 2007, 03:06:59 AM The important thing to note is that my kitten is about to start playing WOW. :D Actually it looks more like he's stalking your mouse.Title: Re: I want to thank you guys Post by: Yegolev on May 03, 2007, 08:54:22 AM Something good that is on iTunes would be It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia. One of the few shows that make me laugh hard enough to hurt my sides.
Title: Re: I want to thank you guys Post by: HaemishM on May 03, 2007, 08:58:39 AM I'd second the recommendation for "It's Always Sunny..." That show is wrong on all sorts of fronts, but it's like the Seinfeld cast got really drunk and let all their worst impulses drive them.
Title: Re: I want to thank you guys Post by: schild on May 03, 2007, 05:16:09 PM "You have to get an abortion."
Goddamn. It's Always Sunny is funny. Title: Re: I want to thank you guys Post by: Llava on May 03, 2007, 06:38:59 PM The important thing to note is that my kitten is about to start playing WOW. Don't let the Chinese hear about that. Thousands of gold farmers will be laid off in favor of cheap kitten labor. Title: Re: I want to thank you guys Post by: HaemishM on May 04, 2007, 08:39:04 AM I for one will welcome the new kitten powered gold farmer tell spam that reads "Meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow keke meow."
Title: Re: I want to thank you guys Post by: Mazakiel on May 04, 2007, 09:02:13 AM Don't forget The Venture Bros. They should all be on iTunes, but I know for sure that the 2nd season's out on DVD now.
Title: Re: I want to thank you guys Post by: Furiously on May 04, 2007, 09:12:23 AM don't kittens go mew more them meow?
Title: Re: I want to thank you guys Post by: Xerapis on May 04, 2007, 09:36:12 AM Yeah, he's still at the weak little "mew gold mew ur server mew mew" stage right now.
