PSYCH Me Out!

I know what you are thinking. Really. You are thinking....how good I look in my tight black jeans today! See. I knew it. Psych!

Seriously, have you seen this show? We love it! Not with the passionate love we reserve for some of our very favorite shows, but there is love. Some love. This is not what you would call a GREAT show, but it is cute and mildly funny. Actually, this is one of the few shows where we watch the whole introduction because we love watching the way Shawn acts when he is supposedly having a psychic episode.

Netflix and I had an issue when I put this show on our "kwee" and somehow we ended up missing the first disk. We dove right in anyway and enjoyed the shows, but it was not until we got Disk 1 that we actually understood how the two of them got involved in pretending to be psychic to solve crimes. Some of the shows are written better than others and they are really the best when they let Shawn act like a total idiot and when they showcase the true friendship between Shawn and Gus. But they are all enjoyable.

Do you watch? What do you think?

Let The Day Begin!

So, tomorrow's Friday. Last day of the week, date night, and, to my GREAT sorrow, my spring break is coming dangerously close to ending but that's OK, because..."Battlestar Galactica" is back tomorrow.

In looking over my previous blog posts, I realize I have raved about several different TV shows (and that reminds me that we just finished Season One of "Friday Night Lights" - OMG, I will totally LISTEN when you say a show is really good from now on, I swear) but I haven't mentioned our deep and abiding love for "Battlestar Galactica". I thought it was coming to an end and, unfortunately, it is, but not right away. They are showing 10 episodes now and will show the rest at a later date. Frak, I can't believe it's ending. And I bet you thought, like me, that was spelled Frack. But no. It's frak. And if you don't know what I am talking about, watch this.*








Now go back and rent all the seasons from Netflix and immerse yourself in a world where the vast majority of the human race has been exterminated by the robots they themselves created, a world where life and death choices must be made every day for the good of those who survive, a world where heroes shine through blood-stained faces and friendship and love triumph over evil, a world where they are desperately trying to get back to a place called Earth. And let me know what you think.
