Television stuff, because I'm just not that intersting...

Have you guys seen Castle yet? You totally have to watch that show. It is just so funny and good, and gets better every week. It isn't original, really (He's a writer! She's a cop! And they fight crime!) but the characters are so appealing and charming and the chemistry is fabulous and it stars Nathan Fillion. What more could you want? Go watch it. Seriously. I'll wait.

Meanwhile, on House. Who else thinks that 'Thirteen' is totally The Wesley?

I've been watching Cougar Town, and I rather like it. I'm not sure how long the premise can hold up, but it's well done and amusing, and I like it.

I like Glee, too, but I find myself DVRing it and then watching it when I've nothing else to do. Ditto with Bones.

Oh, and who else watches The Big Bang Theory? Seems all my best shows are on Monday - How I Met Your Mother, House, Big Bang Theory and Castle. Thank goodness they don't all crash into each other.

Charlie loves iCarly right now. I don't know why.

So, what about you? Any new shows you like? British friends, anything I should be keeping my eyes out for? (BBC America did show Being Human, at least)

I saw Castle for the first time last night and really enjoyed it. I like the light-heartedness of it.

Have you seen Lie To Me? I also caught that for the first time last night and liked it a lot. I <3 Tim Roth. Unfortunately, next week's show looks super melodramatic.

Otherwise, I can't rave enough about Psych. I don't watch much else these days -- Warcraft trumps tv, most nights.

Oh, Psych! I forgot to mention that. I love that show. I also watch The Mentalist, and I love how they've been ripping on how that show is really a 'serious' version of Psych.

I do want to watch Lie To Me, but I keep forgetting about it. I have to remember to DVR it.

I also watch Castle! Mainly I DVR all my shows & watch them on the weekends. I like Cold Case, Glee, Criminal Minds and the new Christian Slater show - the forgotten - it is good.

Merlin is back, and if you haven't caught up with the first season, DO. It's kind of like Smallville (in how it fits with the main mythology arc) only with a healthy disregard for actual Arthurian anything, and also a healthy dose of gay. The plots are fairly predictable and the writing is often unintentionally hilarious but the cast is gorgeous and reasonably talented, and it has Giles. I mean, what more do you want, really?

Have you guys seen Castle yet?

It hasn't reached my little corner of Britland yet, but I've told the pooter to record it when it gets here :-)


Currently we're watching Sanctuary (S2 started here this week, FlashForward, True Blood (just seen the pilots for both those) Season 2 of Chuck (about 3 episodes left) and the new version of Knight Rider (which is better than I expected).

There's a new series of the Sarah Jane Adventures starting very soon and apparently a certain blue box and its owner will be popping in for a visit...

I couldn't get into Castle. It was cute enough, and I saw six or seven episodes, but I just couldn't get into it further. I'm far more into Lie to Me. And House got on my nerves last season so I've been watching it but not immediately- like, it's Wednesday and I haven't watched this week's yet and probably won't until tomorrow at the earliest. NCIS and NCIS:LA take precedence. As does Glee! I <3 Glee. Also, Dollhouse. And Mythbusters. I'll be watching Supernatural once I'm caught up but I still haven't seen any of the current season, so that's five episodes so far and a sixth tomorrow.

I like Glee, but rarely get to see it and the DVR is always recording something else when it's on..

I love Bones, and House. My true guilty pleasure is the Ghost Whisperer. It's soooooo bad, and sooooo cheesy and I just love it.

I actually like 13 and don't think she's a Wesley, but I can see how some might think she is.

Oh, and Lie to Me and Fringe!

We've been watching Castle from the start and enjoying it immensely. We even bought the novel that "Castle" wrote, Heat Wave.

[charliesmum.livejournal.com]

Oh, I bought that too! It was quite good. I loved the whole bit about 'page 105' in the recent episode. I rather enjoyed page 105 myself. :)

ETA: How are the babies doing?

[mabfan.livejournal.com]

The kids are doing well, thanks for asking. For two nights in a row they got to sleep quickly and slept well; last night it took them a little longer to sleep.

Big Bang Theory is my favorite show! I basically want to marry Leonard and/or Sheldon. What can I say? I love smart guys! :)

My Mondays are very DVR heavy with How I Met Your Mother, Big Bang Theory, Accidentally on Purpose (cute and fluffy but also wondering about how long the premise can continue), House, Two and a half Men...

I'm also liking FlashForward! :)

Just watched this week's episode and loved it. This may be the best episode of the series.

I didn't realize they were actually putting out a "Rick Castle novel". But I have to admit I'm tempted to read it.

Otherwise, I have to admit I'm not watching much. We've got all this season's episodes of House on DVR but I still haven't finished last season. Matt is really enjoying the Super Hero Squad, which might be a bit young for Charlie but is really silly fun. Plus there are some references for parents (and others) to get too.
