That movie kept me up all night.

Yeah, definitely one of the most creepiest scenes ever.

Battlestar Galactica- Final season was a bit overlong and the resolution was poor, but decent series overall.

p.s. I'm pretty sure Starbuck was a chick.

The original sounds like a real sausage fest.

Almost done with the first season of X-files.  Gillian Anderson Is really, really hot.  David Dukunov or whatever is kinda annoying.  While some episodes are not very good, there are a lot of really good ones.  One thing that impresses me is that despite a shoestring budget the camera work and most of the acting and directing are really strong.  It really shows what you can do with talented directing and editing.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

'Peaks' might be a strong term.  It's on a pretty high plateau up until Mulder leaves.

I forgot when I stopped watching.  It wasn't that I disliked it, it was just that I became a high school student and had other stuff to do.  Like planing revenge on people or having a nervous breakdown.  I remember thinking it was retarded to have one of the main leads leave the show.  Especially since he's only a so-so actor.  It's like William Shatner leaving Star Trek to make Horror at 37,000 Feet.  Though really, the producers should have written out an arch ahead of time (or at least by the second or third season), and know exactly where they intend to go and when to end it.

Complaints aside, it's a good show.  I also miss boxy cars, phone booths, and cell phones that you could bludgeon someone with.  What I wouldn't give to go back to 1994. :(

Then don't ever watch Californication, because your annoyance will skyrocket outside the atmosphere. He's basically playing himself on cocaine, booze, and pussy.

There's actually a really good parody episode at one point where they flashback to the late  80s or something and at one point Mulder pulls out one of the original mobile phones from his jacket pocket. It was one of those bricks that almost required two hands to hold.

It was clear, it just didn't make sense.  I think you're over thinking it.

There's a shocka. DID I JUST HEAR THE OBSCURE ACCENT OF THE GREEKS OF THE WESTERN PELOPONNESE?

Lol listen to that charming Bactrian brogue.

Finished Season 1 of The Glades and working my way through the second now.  An amusing little diversion of a show.  Longmire is also watchable in my opinion.  Two from A&E that I owe my pops for introducing me to.  The females on the shows are nice eye candy as well.
