    I am working my way through Alias. I didn't watch it when it was first released. It's not bad. Just watched a first season two part episode staring Quentin Tarrantino - I doubt he'd get a chance to do something like that today.

    I had no idea that Bradley Cooper was in it.

    I'm trying not to binge on Californication. I'm on the second season.

    That's on my list to attack next.

    I haven't been binging too much, so it might take some time to get there.

    I recently watched Sin City, twice with a four day break in between, previously I'd only seen it in bits & pieces, never from start to finish. I never got into comic books or graphic novels, even though many are very well done. Pretty entertaining movie.

    It's never too late! V for Vendetta is a great graphic novel to start with; it's different enough from the movie to make it interesting, but having watched the film will give you good context. It's what I typically recommend for n00bs. My book club read it last year, and even people who were hesitant about reading a graphic novel enjoyed it.

    I love me some Cure! And I was listening to the soundtrack just yesterday.

    I'm finally maybe going to start Breaking Bad. There. I said it.

    The first half of Sword Art Online is good. The second half didn't captivate me so much.

    Noragami is in my list of things to watch but I haven't gotten to it yet.

    Breaking Bad gets just painful to watch after a while. Like, I want to know what's next, but then I'm going to just go stare at a wall and maybe cry a little.

    That's a good way to put it.

    I have watched the first five episodes of the first series of Breaking Bad and it is compelling. Watching him lie to his wife about minor crimes to cover up doing awful felonies really draws you in.

    Ooh, thank you for mentioning this show. Never heard of this before, and I do enjoy these type of shows even with the evolutionary angle they always have in them.

    It's fun, just don't hold out for the science part too hard or you'll be disappointed.
    You get the feeling that at some point there was a science geek who really, really wanted everything to be accurate and at some point they just threw the scripts up in the air and stomped out of the room.

    Much like Lost in Space. The TV show not the film which I did enjoy in the theatre and watched again recently on my VHS copy. Watched some of an episode on ME Tv the other night helping a client retire for the nght and it was so awesomely cheesy. I had forgotten just how good it was with Jonathan Harris playing the conniving greedy Dr. Smith, the robot with the useless arms that should get stuck on anything with more than a 5 degree incline or ONE step, or how good Zorro was laying the dad.

    I believe Good Eats is on Netflix. Memories of food network before it turned to crap.

    It is! It is not the whole series, but rather a selection. We watched episodes on baklava and cupcakes yesterday. I'm definitely feeling ready to make some baklava this Christmas.

    It's not on Netflix but I also have Amazon Prime and they have 'Jekyll'.
    Moffits take on the Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde story is uneven but a real kick in the ass.

    Gilmore Girls is now on Netflix. What a treat.

    I have also been re-watching Angel. There were so many episodes in the first two seasons that I missed. I had no idea.
