i know, i was just jokin'. i don't think i can stand more than 1 season of Grey's anyway... i keep comparing it to Iryu.

thing about Grey's is that there's no certain plot behind it, so it really is just exposing a bunch of doctors' everyday life, which is interesting, but not addictive. but the characters are really nice, grows on you, as if you actually are a part of the hospital yourself.

Grey's eps 8, Desperate Housewives 2, and off to check Dirt.

Bah! Dirt is... dirt! it's too freaky for me. not going to continue it...

The Simpsons were Americas first attempt at an "adultish" cartoon let's just hope it one day evolves like Anime haha.

Actually there were cartoons like that before the Simpsons: The Flinstones, for one... I'd say Bullwinkle and Rocky was another... :)

on to Desperate Housewives season 3 and Grey's Anatomy season 2...

i like desperate housewives. what's so good about it is that the quality is constant. it started off good, and it's not a let down after seasons go by

but people who don't like the theme won't like it. i mean, it's practically about housewives screwing up their crappy lives in each episode...

That would be me. :bleh:

I'll have my recorder and blanks discs ready. :thumbsup:

WAR the moie is really good right

Gene Simmons, Family Jewels, season 1 DVD was so amusing! We were surprised.
We've been checking out Deadliest Catch and got hooked on reality TV.

Tried Greys Anatomy and Nip and Tuck but couldnt commit to either series.

But Dead Like Me kept us hooked for both seasons of DVDs. :thumbsup:

What's a "moie?"

please forgive
me i meant movie

just finished Grey's Anatomy 2nd season. great. it's really not the one-sit type though. 3 episodes at a time, and this thing is daymn addicting.

i'm so watching the 3rd season. hope it's as good :sweat:

coz the 2nd season ended up with s total cliffhanger.

finished Desperate Housewives season 3

Spoiler — click to reveal

Eddie Britt killed herself... holy crap!

and starting Grey's Anatomy season 3. i guess the theme for this season is
'a doctor's sex life'?

the creators overrated McDreamy :hehe:

I hope it's not the "I'm-afraid-of-the-FCC-so-this-is-a-watered-down-version" and not the original one Ken Burns created. :shakehead:

All this "indecency" crap goes too far sometimes.
