March 12th, 2007 - Bed

There's deffinitely some incredible draw power in that show. I can identify. I mean, what other show keeps you up at the T.V. when a beautiful woman in slightly revealing sleepwear sweetly suggests, "Come on baby, come to bed"?

We should all sue Jack Bauer for being too awesome and keeping us from hot sex.

I got into the show during season 3, I think. But I never watched it during the season until last year, when I got my DVR.

I picked up season 1 on DVD, taking a risk on it. I put in the first disc friday night after work and ended up watching it straight through to the very end of the season.. 18 1/2 hours later (you lose the commercial breaks, so it's not actually 24 total hours of video... for those who didn't know).

I went out the next day and picked up season 2. And then after each season I'd buy the next set of DVDs and do a marathon. In fact, when I bought season 3 on DVD that next year I watched season 1, 2 and then 3 only breaking to sleep and go to work. And a friend of mine joined me for the marathon.

Did the same thing for season 4's DVD release. I watched season 1, 2, 3 leading up to the release and then season 4's marathon started the day it came out. Then I watched season 5 on DVR. And when season 5 came out on DVD, I watched 4 and 5 again with a friend (who'd missed both), and now we watch the current season every week at my place.

I can't be happier that I have DVR though.. what with Heroes being on at the same time and all.

*warning, bad spelling (possibly) and unpopular view ahead*

i'm not really all that into it. I don't know why, but it really doesn't appeal to me.

I could say it's because when i watch TV i'm seeking to escape from reality for a bit and go for the more fantasy/sci-fi based shows, or i go to try and feel better so i watch comedies (my favorite shows are Heroes, Family Guy, The Outer Limits, and the occasional Smallville).

But that's all shot to hell by the fact that i like the occasional action movie.

Could it be that i haven't watched enough of it? It's possible, i've seen about ten episodes in a row though, and found it kinda.... not for me.

Could it be that i don't like the show's format? No, what i feel for the show is the same thing i feel for shows like The Unit and Shark and Lost. Nothing against those who like it, it's just not for me (putting it mildly).

And i'm not sure if there's any show that would make me skip out on sex. ESPECIALLY if i had Tivo.

Well... maybe if they were showing Batman Begins- that was a kickass movie.

I watched the first season and liked it. I watched the second season and thought it was OK to begin with, but eventually got tired of ludicrous plot twists and stopped watching. Now if I want something with plot twists there's always heroes or BSG, both of which are far better series IMHO.
