Switched to Bones. Seems better, and early ep has Due South alum in it. But apparently hottie palientologists with high IQs and basic reasoning skills only own low-cut blouses and pushup bras, seems kinda unrealistic.
However, in the course of wading through all this, I am developing an awareness: Firefly (which I never saw until Aug 2007) was a really, really good show, and there are very, very few shows that can compare. These that I've tries so far haven't reached the bar quite yet.
Also working through my set of Due South again.
So, Due South, Dark Angel, Firefly don't seem to have much competition.



Enjoying Due South again thanks to Netflix, Just wish it was streaming instead of having to wait for the DVDs.

I just love how Paul Gross plays the heroic good cop (hah Mountie), yet hopelessly clueless to big city ways and his own good looks and women drooling over him.

In the pilot there's even a scene with suspenders and firearms. (drools)

Also, I saw Dr. Horrible at Best Buy yesterday for $19.99.

Shall I assume you have seen Canadian Bacon? I do enjoy Steven Wright's Mountie.
Is it just me, or do you think the guest casting on Due South is waaaay above average?

This may be worth repeating: Firefly is holding up after far longer than these other shows, making all TV look like pathetic wannabees.
However, on the bright side, I got to the Firefly line in Bones, so me is happified for the instant.
Lately this woman can only wear lace bras without other clothing covering, only underdraping her breastages. I enjoyed Madonna's music, but placing her fashion cues onscreen every episode seems a bit much.

Target has True Blood on sale this week for $24.99 for Season One. That's the cheapest I've seen it by over $7. I'm heading there now...

Also, they have the BluRay of Serenity on sale for $14.99, which is as good a deal as I've seen on our BDM.

Oops I spoke too soon.
Was wandering walmart (they didn't have T:TSCC S2 DVDs yet), saw they have some full seasons of series, combined into twin packs, for $20 per pair of Seasons.
Saw Bones S1 with Saving Grace S1, also other pairs were Dark Angel S1 and Tru Calling S1, and X-Files S1 & S2, and Hill Street Blues S1 & St Elsewhere S1, and Angle S1 & Buffy S1.
That's a better deal than $20 per season.

Yeah, I've seen some of the twin-packs at Target for $20, too. They have Buffy S1&S2 packed together, Angel S1&2, etc. Pretty damned good prices, considering I was paying $25 a season 4 years ago for those - and that was a sale price then!

No luck on True Blood, though. I went to 3 different stores yesterday, and all were sold out. :(

I'll try again later in the week. I got a rain check, so the price is good for a while...
