See that sh*t.

If you have not seen The Wire, I just don't know where to begin. But this video does!

If you haven’t seen, well you’re not living life to the fullest yet. See that sheeeeiiiiit.

Season of the Were

Oh snap! New "True Blood" trailer for Season 3.



I suppose it's following the storyline of Club Dead, since the wolves are abound and Alcide pops up to protect Sookie.

Trailer spotted at Pajiba!

Break on Through to the Other Side: Fringe Finale preview

I like sci-fi, obvious if you know me or read any of this blog or my contributions to TelevisionRevival.com. I am an unapologetic fan when it comes to the genre, except for "Babylon 5", I draw the line there.



'Fringe' filled the hole in my heart left missing by the cancellation of almost every sci-fi show I would get hooked upon. I suppose Fox is making amends to me personally. I was a bit miffed with J.J. and company when the parallel universe story arc emerged. The cruel hand of fate was at work because it mirrored almost exactly my television treatment I worked so hard on during my M.A. last year. But all is forgiven cos the spring season has raised the bar! I cannot wait to see the "Fringe" alternate universe in depth. And from the looks of this promo for the finale, it's worth the wait.



Curses! It's a two-parter. Oh well, I've got "Justified" and other U.S. shows to catch up on in the interim.

Lafayette tells it like it is.

I don't know what happened but I've become completely enamored with the Sookie Stackhouse books after writing a paper on the "True Blood" tv show. I only half enjoyed the show and on a whim started reading the books. But once I got to book 2, I was hooked! It reminds me of the black comedy abundant in everyday Southern life, the rampant hypocrisy and superstition. Plus, it  has a touch of horror which I've always loved. Oh and reading about hot vamps is okay too.



As for the tv show, first season is a'ight. But second season is 10 times better, altho I could do with less orgies and bleeding heart casseroles. Thus, I'm all in for season three. But I think it's really because of Lafayette that kept my interest piqued. After watching the latest "True Blood" minisode, he's definitely the most enjoyable character (after that is the hot as hell Eric played by Alexander Skarsgard).



In this minisode, Tara gets downright nasty with Sookie, which is fun cos when isn't a verbal catfight not entertaining (see all ANTM cycles). But it's Lafayette coming in to tell them what's what (basically they're trippin'), a smile is brought to my face. On the downside, Anna Paquin, bless her heart, tries to do that southern accent thing but fails miserably. I frown every time I hear it before realizing there's nothing to be done.

Check out the mini-ep below and see for yourself.

Death Note II

The devil aka Time Warner Cable ruined my "Death Note" recordings of the anime on Adult swim. It would record like 10 minutes of the middle or only one minute of an episode. After awhile,I got too behind in the story. Thus, I missed the first live action Death Note when it was released in theaters last spring. Thanks to the magic of hulu, I can catch up on the anime lickety split before renting the movie from Netflix.



Death Note II: The Last Name will play at select US theaters next week for two days only! October 15th and 16th in select cities.

Thank Pop Candy for the heads up (and for making my day!)
