i saw the first two episodes (which they made look like a movie). didn't really hook me though. I don't know why, but i'm not really into the woman 'samson' thing, i like women with guns, but Sarah Connor is just a bit too 'brute-ish' hard core :beaten:. but the new robot girl makes it interesting.


can anyone tell me where i can get downloads for american tv series like these? I'm looking for new season epsiodes. the small around 350mb avi files would be preferable thx

since it doesn't air here, i just saw Ellen's showfor the first time today.


dang it's waaay better than Oprah :beaten:

I watched two episodes of Pushing Daisies, which I liked. :mrgreen:

But I am always afraid that these kind of series end up running for years. I don't have the time nor patience anymore.

continued the delayed episodes of Desperate Houswives season 4 due to the WGA strike thing.

i can't believe i'm enjoying these series so much :beaten:

i know it has one of lamest and annoying theme ever, but everytime i start getting tired of it there's always something surprisingly interesting that hooks me :bonk:

lame

The only thing I'm looking forward to with the US TV schedule is The Middleman. Not that I'm near watching it anytime soon (pilot's up for free on iTunes, though), but the comic seems to have been adapted pretty well to the screen.

Looking forward to some guns, kung-fu, and luchadores.

:naughty:

IMHO Ellen's show appeals to a younger audience. That is why she has so many rappers and young entertainers on her show. Ellen also dances at the top of her show, was a stand-up comic and had her own sit-com. Oprah who has been at this talk show thing a lot longer than Ellen has a wider variety of guests, more in-depth topics, and I think a broader age range for her audience. Both very good at what they do, just different styles. :victory: :)

From Wiki:

On February 20, 2007, Variety Magazine revealed that Marc Cherry and the ABC Studios had signed gan eight-figure overall pacth, ensuring Cherryfs commitment to the show until May 2011, the end of the seriesf projected seventh season. In addition, the studio has negotiated deals with gall key members of the casth to stay on the show until then. While Cherry said that he would like the show to come to an end at that point, ABC Studiofs Mark Pedowitz stated that gWe'll cross that bridge when we come to ith.[34]

The series was renewed for a fifth season on February 12, 2008.[35]

Being a big fan of Broadway musicals himself, and following the success of musical episodes on television series such as Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Cherry has expressed an interest in writing a musical episode of Desperate Housewives.[36]

As shown in the second half of the two-hour season four finale, season five will take place five years into the future. Due to the time jump, several actors won't be returning to the show. The child actors will not be back (i.e. the Scavo children), and the teen actors, Joy Lauren (Danielle), Lyndsy Fonseca (Dylan) and Andrea Bowen (Julie), will also not be returning to Wisteria Lane. Shawn Pyfrom (Andrew), however, will be staying on the show, and as shown in the time jump, Andrew is now Bree's assistant. The fate of Mike Delfino is still up in the air. James Denton, who plays Mike, won't receive official word on his fate until mid-June.[37] Uncertainty of his position on the show started after the end of the season four finale, set five years into the future, where Susan arrives home from a poker night and kisses another man[38] (played by Queer as Folk's Gale Harold).

wew, strange. i thought it was finished. the 5 year jump thing isn't common right? i wonder what season 5 is gonna be like...

anyway, rented the first five episodes of Brothers&Sisters :victory: . watching tonight

just saw the first two episodes of Brothers&Sisters

didn't like it :beaten: . it's too old for my taste. the show seriously needs more 'spice'

If you use eMule, you could try http://sharethefiles.com/forum/

They do have Gossip Girl there...

i used to use eMule . but all the donkey, color, design and stuff just made the software somehow look unreliable so i uninstalled it. :beaten: + i don't really know how to use it anyway. maybe i should try it again. but for now, back to mininova :victory:. i usually use the search engine and type the keyword but it looks like the results aren't as organized as searching by category.

oh and, runpup, Brothers&Sisters is good! on to episode 16 :victory:

I'll admit that eMule can be slow sometimes, and it doesn't help if your computer is on a network and doesn't have port forwarding set up properly ( same goes for BT) but it's really the only place to find some rare files. That site has an amazing number of links for Japanese movies that you can't find elsewhere. Once you have eMule set up it's just a matter of clicking on a link and the download will add itself to the list. It usually takes me a few days to download a movie (1.4G or so) but TV eps should be quicker, especially if you have a fast connection.
