No new battlestar until 2008...

Yeah thats right, no new Battlestar until 2008. But guess what, I don't care. So far every story in season 3 has pretty much sucked. What started out as a great series in seasons 1 and 2 has turned into crap. I think season 4 will be its last and by the look at its current writing level...none too soon. I think the only thing that was worse was 'who wants to be a superhero'. I also hate to say it but maybe something similar is happening to Lost. With some of the writers/producers being tapped for new stuff, the original vision for the show is being lost and its appeal is faltering.

But, The Riches is still going strong. Andy Barker PI seemed quite funny from the first episode. Raines also seems pretty good from the first episode. Jeff Goldblum was very good and the premise is somewhat funny. We'll have to see how the series goes from there.

Its been a while

Hey, sorry its been so long since I last posted but I had some stuff to share. Monday, Kc, Vicki, Jeremy and myself worked on cleaning up the back yard. It looks much better and kc has spruced it up with some plants in one corner of the yard. A bunch of bricks are going to be hauled off along with plastic lattice and about dozen bags of leaves and other junk.

I have to hand it to Frank Miller, while I didn't get to go see the movie with the group on Saturday and have yet to see it. I am very eager to watch it. On a $70 million dollar budget they produced this beautiful looking movie. Hopefully, more of his visions will be make it to the screen with him directing. So, if anyone has not seen 300 or would like to see it again, let me know.

A new show premiered on FX that I watched. Its called 'The Riches' and from the first episode it looks very good. The show stars Eddie Izzard, Minnie Driver and Shannon Marie Woodward (which I know in a roundabout way). I am not going to post the synopsis here but I will definitely link to it. All three cast I named above do a wonderful job in the pilot episode and it really has me wanting more so far. I have never seen anything of Eddie Izzard but he was great. The entire family cast was great and I would recommend it.

Also, here is an article about 'The Riches'. Enjoy!
