Looks like its just alcatraz for me
love how theres 2 eps back to back and its not even season finale yet
Love all those shows listed here Ant, except for smash. Thank u for appreciating these lol
“Sonny Burnett”
should be played by Don Johnson
that was his alias on Miami Vice
SMASH!
Yup. One of the best and most intelligent shows on TV for a very long time.
Does anybody know where I can watch Being Human online? (legally of course) Hulu and SyFy’s website only carry the 1st 4 episodes.
Also, I love Alcatraz.
Yeah, Don Johnson should have played Sonny Burnett. Alcatrazs had repidly declining ratings and probably wont see a Season 2. Maybe JJ can convince them to try a 13 episodes Season 2 and order a back 9 if ratings move up.
But then again I thought Fringe was a sure cancellation after Season 3 to be ended with a short miniseries to wrap up the series. Fringe has reached minimum requirements for syndication and ratings are bad (despite the high DVR ratings) so its done barring a surge in ratings for te final 8 episodes. I and many other would love to see a new series on cable merging Fringe and LOST – have 4 main Fringe members go for a nice “vacation” on the LOST Island brought there by Hugo who now runs the Island (assuming Alcatraz gets the aze – though he could do 2 shows at the same time if one was a summer series).
Being Human was pretty good last nite. I do not watch Alcatraz but i probably will start back watching it since i just got Hulu Plus.
Lost Girl, beep beep, waiting for season two to premire on syfy hopefully they can will season 3 the same time as they show it in Canada if since they will be showing season 2 here shortly.
@shycat – I hate to break it to you, but most of the Alcatraz videos on Hulu Plus have expired. It’s only the latest 4 or 5 episodes available now. So, you wouldn’t have the first part of the series available.
thanks for letting me know b-list pornstar extra.
