New Series!


right.. so since i'm here today haha... here's an overview of the new shows i'm currently busy watching!

highly recommended cos it's so damn good are Blue Bloods and The Chicago Code... both are cop dramas.. first one being about a family of cops starring Donnie Wahlberg, Tom Selleck, Bridget Moynahan, n Jennifer Esposito amongst it leads while the second one is set in Chicago with Jennifer Beals, Jason Clark and Delroy Lindo, where the new superintendent is fighting corruption on all ends while trying to clean up the streets.
awesome stories, great styles, superb performances are enough to get me high on a weekly basis.






















another one is the re-boot of Hawaii Five-O... now this was was launched with some skeptism as certain famous reboots didn't fare too well (Knight Rider anyone?) but has come out with some excellent ratings and with it's reputation intact. with Alex O'Loughlin, Scott Caan, Daniel Dae Kim(yes he of Lost fame) and Grace Park as the team.

critical acclaim follows The Walking Dead... who gave zombie genre lovers it's first tv series... finally a good show about zombies. and it's apparently gonna get better as the story continues. nice!

a couple more dramas are making the rounds this 2011, like new med-drama from creators of Grey's Anatomy, but this time set in the jungle of some south american outback...looks alright for now... but the ratings don't look good...same goes for Sarah Shahi starer Fairly Legal.

comedies on the other hand have some new stars in the house!
call-center comedy Outsourced is crazy funny, same as Shit my Dad Says.. with William Shatner spewing cynical wisdom. guaranteed funny.



there are two ex-friends stars facing off over the ratings.. with Matt LeBlanc's Episodes seem to be doing better then Matthew Perry's Mr Sunshine...time will tell if both survive to a 2nd season.




another one that's just 2 episodes old is Mad Love with Jason Biggs (american pie), Taylor Labine (Reaper), Judy Greer(arrested development etc) and Sarah Chalke(scrubs) in a hilarious outing as a pair of dating couples.... although orthodox as they are.

HOLY COW

yeah that's all i can say...
after all the months of being primarily lazy while totally using my physical state of cross geographic change in address as an excuse ..... i have been slacking from here tooo long.
it's not to say that i've been totally away from watching movies... now THAT would have been sinfull. So here i am... back!!
