Filling the void

bee_yorkI am trying out all sorts of different shows to fill the void left by Lost. The latest is So You Think You Can Dance AND OMG HOW HAVE I NOT REALLY WATCHED THIS BEFORE. This show is COMEDIC GOLD. The judges are crying, wtf?! This is more hilarious than American Idol. The judges are crying. People make it through and they cry anyhow. WTF IS THIS I DON'T EVEN. I have never seen so many drama queens together in one place. This is fucking awesome. It's too bad I work tomorrow otherwise I'd totally play a drinking game to this trainwreck. Omg.
A quick word on the other new shows I've been trying out.
Stargate Universe - I've only seen one episode but I HATED IT. HATED. HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATE. This show would also make an excellent drinking game. Every time they try and rip of BSG, take a drink! Or, every time someone or something in that show pisses me off, take a drink. Bah, I'd be wasted 20 minutes in.
All In the Family - I've always refused to watch this show because I can't stand the lead woman's voice, but I actually made it through 2 episodes yesterday and ya know, it's really not that bad. Nothing amazing, but it's definitely got its moments.
Glee - A mixture of ZZZzzzzzzz and ARRGHHHH. What the hell is this show so popular for? UGH. I'm going to FORCE myself to watch a few more episodes to see if it gets any better, but it's becoming a chore. If it doesn't get less aggravating in the next few episodes, I give up.
The Office - Okay so this isn't 'new' to me, I've been watching it on and off for about 5 years now, but I'm starting to REALLY follow it now. THIS SHOW IS BRILLIANT. JUST BRILLIANT. <3 This is how you make a TV show, people.
I think that about covers it.
I got the first few episodes of Doctor Who but I haven't watched it yet.
In a week and half's time, school will be done for me and I will be unemployed so I will have a LOT more free time than I know what to do with, so I'll be up to date on all kinds of shows very quickly, methinks. I hope I find something good soon (other than The Office).
ETA: OMG THE JUDGES ARE CRYING AGAIN. WTF IS THIS???!?!!? I can't watch this alone. I need someone to LMAO with. Someone come over, dammit.

Date: 2010-06-10 01:22 am (UTC)I hate Glee. I love musicals, I love singing, I hate glee. Go figure.
I love The Office as well. :D
I can't wait until you start watching DW so that I can discuss with you. I don't think you'll regret it! It's so smart, funny, different, etc. I used to get attached to the Doctors and was bummed every time they changed them but I love ALL of them. I've come to realize that it's the show that is awesome. :)
lol@judges crying. I could never get into that show but I would love to learn how to dance like that!
Oh and Stargate Universe.....so dull.
I watch too much TV!!!! lololol

I love musicals, Mike loves musicals, and you love musicals, yet none of us like this show. You know why? Because it isn't aimed at people who like musicals. It's aimed at people who are into musicals right NOW because they're *in* right now, and as soon as musicals are untrendy, they'll likely stop liking them, too. I'm pretty sure this is Glee's target audience.
Does this make sense? It makes sense it my head. I might have explained this badly 'cause I'm sooo tired right now, lol. But anyway I think you know what I mean. Glee falls into the same genre of "new" musicals like Across the Universe and things like that....(Across the Universe was great though).
HAHAHAHHAHA @ everything you said about All in the Family. OMG. <333
Annnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnd I LOVE Taxi! I don't understand why all the oldies stations I have don't air it. :(
My favourite oldies show is Three's Company though. I watched 2-4 episodes per day. I LOVE IT.
