Is it the scandinavian version? I watched that with GJ a few months ago before ebaying it for more than twice the price I'd paid for it
Nah, US. The reason I bought a Dhuvd player in the first place was for Twin Peaks, so there's no way I'm getting rid.
I always knew I wanted to watch The Wire, but this (NSFW - duh) apparently-famous scene were two detectives examine a crime scene whilst saying nothing but "fuck" and "mother fucker" has completely sold it to me.

That is an excellent scene. I'd forgotten about that.
That's a great scene.
I love The Wire.

Why are you twatting around wasting your time with True Blood and 30 Rock if you've not seen the Wire? For fuck's sake, man - get it done.

Because I don't have The Wire? 
And don't forget that finding the first hour or so incomprehensible in both plot, characters and most of all accent is entirely normal. Buy hour three you'll be obsessed.
Still waiting on series three DVDs at the moment. I fucking love it.

Hey, he hasn't even seen Twin Peaks yet. Let me repeat that. He hasn't even seen Twin Peaks yet

Because I don't have The Wire?I see a fairly simple solution to that issue.

Wait how old is he?, I'm sure theres a law that states that if you haven't seen twin peaks by the age of 30 you are sentenced to death, I believe its called Lynch's Run Law or somethng.
There's loads of great stuff I haven't seen. I long ago outgrew having fits about it. Twin Peaks and The Wire are both on my ToDo list. I tried to watch Twin Peaks when it was first one, but I was about 14 at the time and it simply baffled me.
There's a Wire box set on Amazon for £70. I'll pick that up one day when it's a bit cheaper. Torrents of it seem to be of suspect picture quality (I'm picky about that these days), have subtitles burned in (which would annoy me no end), and/or have no seeders. I'm happy to buy it.
Also, don't knock 30 Rock, it's fucking brilliant.

It's a very sad state of affairs.

Wait, what? I wondered why this red pebble in my palm has been flashing for the last year and a half. What you need is someone who's just splashed out on the definitive gold boxset recently, who already had the first, second and pilot on Dhovds before, and is willing to sell them on for about twennyfoive quid. Or something.
Hmmm. Keep talking.
I like Linda McCartney sausages. They are full of flavour.

GET HIM. Settling down in my pants to start watching Twin Peaks again.

Mädchen Amick explaining what Baywatch is to David Lynch on the TP:UGB is a special special thing.

Watched the first two FlashForwards. Liked them, will stick with it. I take someone's point about the characters not being special, but with this sort show I'm happy to watch for plot, rather than character development. Assuming they don't skank it up of course.
Interesting how many changes they've already made from the book, which I am an expert on because I read about it on Wikipedia.

"Fade to awesome" 
I really need to start watching Flash Forward for some reason I can't stop watching series 8 of Monk.
I've heard some bad things about how 'Flash Forward' develops, so I will wait to see what people make of it before committing to it.
I watched Stargate:Universe last night. I'm not rally familiar with either SG:Atlantis or the original show (other than a few episodes here and there), so I'm not sure how it compares to them.
It seems interesting though, if a little formulaic and a bit like BSG.

Dude, they showed you six months ahead in the first 10 minutes of episode 1. How many more spoilers do you need?

You're confusing the series Team Knight Rider (multiple vee-hick-ulls) and Knight Rider 2000 (KITT is resurrected in a God-awful red fooo-chur car that would look stupid even by '60s "this is what the year 2000 will be like" standards, never mind the mid 90s or whenever). I had only seen Team KR once.. it was awful, and only heard of KR2000.. hence my confusion...
That is teh one Grim

But Knight Rider 2000 had one car (unless I've done a particularly good job of a mental excision), and TKR had several. Which is different to "Knight Rider 2000 (which had a few cars)"
Just wiki it, KR200 had 2 Kitt, a 1957 Chevy and that red one too..
Ah. Way to go me, then. Though I obviously picked the wrong car to forget about.
as a bonus the women in the new KR are very nice......

About Flash Forward or Stargate:Universe?
Unless you count the contents of the first two episodes of SG:U then I don't know any spoilers!
Defying Gravity is coming to BBC soon. Anyone know if it's any good?
(Original post from Bits & Bobs)
I thought the the first two episodes tried to make it obvious that he's incredibly UNcomfortable in the family role. It's been good stuff so far, anyway.
More importantly, why wasn't I told that a new series of The Big Bang Theory had started?

Dexter is impressing me this season apart from the way they seem to be portraying him as comfortable in the family role when the previous series made it clear that he was anything but.
I can't help thinking they are doing this just to make it appeal to a wider audience and this makes me sad.

From reading his blog, Wil Wheaton, geek commander, is going to be in an episode.
