The Sopranos and MI-5

Hi, I finished up the first part of The Sopranos season six and was worried at first as many people were complaining that it was not that good.Fortunately I disagreed with them as I found it as good as ever with Tony getting shot again! AJ causing problems and hooking up with a really hot chick, is it just me or is Meadow rather thin? I read she had some issues with her wieght hope she eats something as I think she is a tad thin but still beautiful.I think many people just want lots and lots of violence in EVERY sopranos episode frankly that would suck as this show is not just about soprano killing someone every day but his trial and tribulations as a mob boss , father and husband.I wonder what David Chase will do next? once this show ends next year? He has made boatloads of dough and doesn't need to work but I would like to see him helm a new show as he created one of the best shows EVER.

I just completed the first six episodes of MI-5 and was iffy at first but the series built momentum and what a cliff hanger ending!!.Once you start caring for the agents you will be hooked on this BBC show, looking forward to watching volume 2 and 3.Also it is a welcome change after watching predominantly American shows it is nice to change it up once in a while.On the tv landscape it's re run hell until next year which sucks luckily I have MI-5 and Monk series to catch up on which should lead me to next year, yeah I ignored Monk for a long time but after Tony Shaloub won emmy's almost every year I have to give it a shot and see how the show is, I have watched maybe 2 episodes then got caught up with other things and BAM there are 3 seasons out on dvd already!.One thing I have noticed is it is great to watch a show that has lots of suspense and cliff hangers on dvd as you are able to watch the next episode immediately without having to wait a week, also the lack of ADS is pure gold!! can't tell you how annoying it is to watch something on tv and then have to endure ads ugh!.Otherwise that's what I have been upto have a good one.

Sleeper cell season one

I stumbled onto this supposed mini series a week ago.It is a show that was on Showtime and was meant to be a mini series however it appears it will be back for another season.The show centers on an undercover FBI agent named Darwyn who is a muslim and is undercover in a sleeper cell in the Los Angeles area.The plot is well written and acted, the show made me weary that such a cell may very well exist.The show unravels as the cell is planning a major attack after 9/11 Darwyn must keep the FBI informed on the developments and assist in stopping the attack.Showtime is quickly becoming a powerhouse cable network with This show, Weeds, The Brotherhood and recently Dexter.HBO better watch their back especially after The Sopranos comes to an end to me the only shows they will have left will be the last season of The Wire and the addicting Entourage after that there is nothing of significance, they need to step up to the plate as they had been coasting when they had, SFU, OZ, The Sopranos,The Wire, Sex and the City, Deadwood, most of these shows are either gone or are soon to be gone.

In other news Studio 60 was good this week, Amanda Peet , Steven Weber are doing a good job in their roles the interesting part this week was the apparent affection Bradley Whitford's character has for Jordan oh and Matt planting a fast one on Harriet was funny.This show is well written and acted however it needs a new time slot pronto.Heroes was also very good this week with the revelation that Peter is the bomb , that hiatian dude talking was also interesting can't wait for next month when it continues.Friday Night Lights was awesome yestereday with Matt stumbling along on his date with the coach's daughter.The HOT Layla Garrity had a rough day being dismissed by Jason.Tyra getting livid that Tim had slept with Layla was amusing cause Layla is everything Tyra wishes she was.They are both gorgeous though.Smash needs to stop taking those drugs pronto although the pressure to succeed is very high especially in that town.We are about to get into rerun hell which sucks, this is where having a Netflix membership comes in handy.Today I start watching the first half of The Sopranos season six see you after completion.

Huff season one and some tidbits

Howdy! finished watching this very good but shortlived series starring Hank Azaria, Oliver Platt, Blythe Danner, Paget Brewster.By the way Paget is hot damn!.This show only lasted 2 seasons which sucks as it was a very good drama, it had everything you could want, humour, hot chicks, drama yet it still got canceled, this is a mistake Showtime made as evidenced by the emmy Blythe Danner won for the show which was awkward to accept with the show already canceled. It's supposed to be harder for shows to get canceled in cable land so this was surprising.Sometimes even cable strikes out now and then see HBO canceling Deadwood also.

In other news Prison Break is on a BREAK pun intended, that was quite an ending last week hopefully fans will still be around although hooked up with 24 should help things out considerably.Studio 60 I have decided is almost too good of a show which is saying something, I think the writers are trying to over outdo themselves which is creating a bit of a mess at times I still watch it though, whether it comes back next season is anyone's guess.It may come back but it should first get a new timeslot, and ease up on the writing a bit, most of the sketches are not funny and waste time, Perry and Brad are good , even Peet who was getting trashed earlier is ok to me, Steven Webber is good as well.Friday Night Lights writing and performances continue to amaze people unfortunately think this show is just about football every minute which is a shame as it is much more.Oh and Layla Garrity is the hottest newcomer at the moment.Heroes is very good and is the breakout show this season Monday should be fun.

Did anyone watch the Madonna concert or was it just me? I always make a point of watching her concerts as she really puts on a show and for a woman almost 50 she is turning back the clock, she has a better body than many 25yr olds, her perfomances kick ass always.

Britney is on a flashing spree this week, phew wear a thong atleast damn.Anyone find it amusing that she was hanging around Paris and Lohan who also have had the privelege of showcasing their nether regions? only in Hollywood I tell you, only in Hollywood.

Will the paparazzi leave Brad and Jolie alone please? we don't need to know their every move thanks. This also goes for Lohan, give the gal a break she is only 20 but seems to be pushing 40 at this rate.No one in Hollywood should announce their plans to get married especially after the 100% failure rate to last even 5 yrs, for once let it be a surprise when we read that so and so are divorcing leaving us to ask they were married?.

American Music Awards were not bad, Kimmel trashing K-fed just before Britney presents an award was amusing, I hear she was non too pleased.Performances were good , Jay-z was standard, Mary brought down the house as usual heck even Jamie Fox performed well even though I was cynical to his musical talents.Gwen Stefani's single is not that good in my opinion.Beyonce was great as usual Jigga is a very lucky man, speaking of jigga his new album is quite good, best tracks for me are, Oh My God,Minority Report, 30 something, Trouble, Dig a hole( sick beats here), and the last one with Chris Martin of Coldplay Beach Chair.I hope he perfoms Beach Chair somewhere that would be dope.Grey's Anatomy was strong with all the drama of Dr. Burke, Christina, George, show still owns all shows currently on air.Have a good weekend.
