The day is ending... The sun, despite the fact I haven't seen it at all today, will soon be setting... and that means one thing:

 

Almost time for NEW TV (most days)!

 

I tend to watch a fair amount of television.  By fair amount, of course, I mean more than the a normal person, and probably much more than is healthy.  Like I can finish a season of a TV show on DVD in a day or two, and that's not necessarily on the weekend.  I tend to avoid the reality program and am a bigger fan of escapism.

 

One of my favorite shows right now is Chuck.  I've watched the show since the pilot and have continued enjoying it over the last two years.  Just picked up the first season on DVD last week (whilest buying the new Kelly Clarkson CD!) and have been rewatching it.

 

The show is escapism for me at it's finest: A geek chic main character I can relate to, hot girls in sexy outfits fighting, at least one good/hilarious slow motion scene an episode (see previous mention of hot girls), witty banter, pop culture referances, and Adam Baldwin (not one of those Baldwins).  I think it's a great, fun show that has a lot to offer and despite not having the best ratings has the network behind it which is awesome.  That being said, and despite the fact it looks like there's a rerun tonight, if you have a Neilson box in your house, TURN ON NBC TONIGHT @ 8!! I haven't seen anything saying Chuck has been picked up for a new season and I swear if it gets cancelled I will Neilson box your face.

 

Also, going to be catching up with Adam Baldwin's old Firefly co-star Nathon Fillion on ABC in Castle.  Is it the good show?  Probably not but it was better than I was expecting.  And it's got Malcolm Reynolds in it!  I'd really like Fillion to have a sucessful show on his hands.

 

Before I leave a Chuck quote:

 

Chuck is trying to stop a missle from being launched at California and is running out of time

Chuck: Do we carry any Rush CD's?
Morgan: Not to worry buddy! I have every Rush track on my Zune.
Chuck: Ok.... Wait, you have a Zune!?
Morgan: Pfft! No, I'll go get my iPod.
