My friend Sheila recommended Dexter to me. She also recommended renting the DVD because the crime scenes were watered down so much. She said it would give you more insight into the perp to see the uncensored version. But, I don't know. I think the ideas are very well put across in the PG version on Network TV. It's probably very different from Samantha in Sex and the City.

My roommate called me into his room to show me that scene. I haven't seen an episode myself. I've pretty much quit watching tv. I just don't have the time.
DH posted it in the Let's talk SW Again thread.

My padawan and I finally saw this week's Terminator episode last night and it's okay. It's getting really predictable though I have to wonder why Cameron kept the "dead" Terminator's brain power plug. I wonder if they will find his hand. Andy's demise kind of surprised me. At first I thought he was sent back with Derek but I guess he wasn't. The future has already been changed. I guess Derek took the computer too or maybe it was the Russian guy. Oh well...

They show Dexter on normal TV you mean? That's a Showtime show, it has to be seen uncut, lol. I wouldn't want to watch a watered down version of anything.
I love Dexter, though, I love his character. He's awesome. I think he's lucky, it would be great to be more like Dexter, although I feel I'm half-way there. Sometimes you just have to pretend to care about something because society acts like it's great, but in reality you're thinking, Eh, who cares. But I think he's a really funny character too. I love the ending to Season One, it had me laughing so hard.
If there really was a CSI who was a serial killer and just killed other serial killers, etc., I would be happy with that. The law is great and all but it's inefficient and often sloppy. Dexter is efficient and saves taxpayers money. That's what we need more of. 
The justice system is run by the government. We all know how great the government is at running anything. 'nuff said.

Lost was good, but a little more predictable than most of its episodes.

I agree about Lost.
Everyone was so surprised it was Clare's baby. I knew right away.
My question is does the baby count as a survivor of the crash?

I want to know how Kate got Aaron away from Claire in the first place! Does this mean Claire is dead or did Kate steal him?
JT, I'm surprised you aren't posting about Jericho. You got me hooked on that show. It's been okay so far.

I'm also a Jericho fan, but I have to say, I liked it better in the first two seasons. Still, this conspiracy thing is very intriguing.
Does anyone know when the third season of Dr. Who &/or the Spring season of Heroes start?

Though I am happy about Jericho being back I feel like they are really rushing the plot trying to get the whole thing into 7 episodes.
Jericho has only been on one season, this is the second season and will only be a half season unless the show gets good ratings.
I am surprised we have not seen all the characters on the show like the boy who runs the market and his girlfriend and the mother who are all MIA.

They seem to be focusing too much on the Allied States of America and fighting them rather than the rest of the town. I guess they can justify that because the ASA has brought "order" back to Jericho and no one has to deal with that crooked couple.

I was watching it last night and think the show is shot differently. More like a soap opera than the old way they used to shoot the show. It tells me they really do not have much of a budget anymore.
I'm curious to see how they are going to wrap it up in just a few more episodes. Introducing this new virus plot now seems kind of pointless since the show is going to end soon.

It's my understanding that Jericho was previously cancelled and is back due to popular demand, a lot of fans writing in and all. So, maybe they think a more soap opery feeling will boost the ratings.
Oh, and I know it was only on for one previous year. But, to the best of my recollection, I believe the network split that into a Fall and Spring season (with more than the usual holiday break).
