So, shows I am going to check out and other things.

1. Chuck. Sometimes I like light and cooky, and seeing clips and vids on youtube made me think I may like it.

2. Warehouse 13. Mr. Mousie is a fan and I like scifi...

3. Fringe. I was sold by parallel universes. Also, apparently there is shippiness, if the mv below is any indication.

4. Haven. I am most excited by this one! First off, Mr. Mousie loves it, and since we are both fans of Firefly and Farscape and Buffy and Dr Who and a billion other things, we have similar tastes. Plus, I was digging around on youtube, and it triggered my memory that this is a show where one of the characters is a guy who cannot feel a single thing except - the only thing he can feel is heroine's touch. Sold. Have a MV for them...

I am skipping Lost Girl, because it seems to me to be a bit too Laurel K. Hamilton for my tastes.

Oh, and apparently the first season of First Wave is on DVD! Guess who just bought it? I used to love that show 10+ yrs ago - nothing like hot people fighting an alien conspiracy while being hunted by the government. Plus, mmmm, Sebastian Spence.

On a final note, I realized I never watched Babylon 5. The horror! Not only is it Mr. Mousie's all-time favorite show, it's a scifi classic. Luckily, I just bought the entire series on DVD for Mr. Mousie for Valentine's Day, so I know what we are watching in February :)

Oh, and just finished Farscape 4.08, I Shrink, Therefore I Am. It's not an ep for which I have a lot of meta, but I do like the Crichton has to take almost constant hits of the drug to be able to function clear-headedly and not get overwhelmed with 'Aeryn is in danger Aeryn Aeryn Aeryn!' And I love how the show mocks technobabble. Plus, Rygel being unselfish and Crichton snarking on Scorpy are always great.

I adore Fringe. The only thing you need to be aware of is that it starts out quite slowly and seems to change direction towards the end of Season 1. But as the direction-change means that it goes from "not bad" to "holy crap amazing", it's a good thing. Also strong women, beautiful relationships and shippy angst. And parallel universes!

Parallel Universes. EEEEEE! And ships!

I am used to shows that start slowly, so I don't mind :)

It does sound awesome :)

There's a full boxset for B5? Why didin't I know this? I loved the show, probably as much as Farscape. :) *goes to check for availability*

Well, as it seems we'll be cut off (one way or another) from getting anything by dl'ing unless we want to be prosecuted, I'll be soon having enough tome to re-watch to my heart's content.

I watched the S1 of Fringe and part of S2 (I think) a while back but never got back to it for some reason. I wonder if they are still showing it here....

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

Amazon has it for $125 which is pretty much a steal. I am curious to watch it - I feel like a bad scifi fan because I haven't seen it :)

LOL about prosecution...I used to dl stuff I owned just so I could cap :)

i've seen the first seasons of chuck and fringe but somehow just forgot about the shows but from what i hear both shows are great and also quite shippy.

i've seen all episodes of haven and i quite like it but i do know it's not to everyone's taste. it is full of shippy goodness (especially in the second season) and the main leads are great together and i am pretty enamored by the main dude and his face and the things he does with it. the whole "she's the only person whose touch he can feel" is handled pretty well i think. i'm not going to lie, i'm definitely in it more for the main otp so i've completely forgotten what the main storyline/plot is about so i mostly recommend it for the main leads and their dynamic (AND ALSO BECAUSE MAIN DUDE'S FACE IS SERIOUSLY AMAZING. ESPECIALLY SINCE HE SPENDS MOST OF IT LOOKING AT HER ALL SMITTEN.)

I love Haven!!!

I don't care about supernatural mysteries, I just want Audrey and Nathan to make out :P

Fringe is the BEST!

Warehouse 13 and Chuck are good as well.

Girls with guns? Check out the new Nikita...it's Maggie Q so naturally a lot of ass kicking and guns are involved.

How did I miss all these posts on Farscape...oh John and Aeryn. The tv series ending, even though I knew there was a movie, was terribly scarring for me.

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

I confess I was bored by Nikita. It seemed like my show on paper but somehow I could never get into it.

I am going to watch Warehouse 13, Chuck and Fringe :)

When I first saw the series' ending, it was when they initially aired it, so nobody knew there would be the mini and I screamed and screamed

I actually didn't think Joshua Jackson and Anna Torv had much chemistry at first, but they grew on me, and the shippiness of it all overcame everything.

Oooooh, sounds promising!
