Wednesday is the day

Wednesday, September 26th, 2007

for 07-08 season.
So far, Bionic Women is really good. I like the girl who played Jamie and her sister Becca is cute as well. I didn't even have time to check out Gossip Girl, but I'll probably skip it. There are too much going on. Who'd thought, after so many shows ended and so [...]

Journeyman s1e1 Pilot

Tuesday, September 25th, 2007

前半段完全讓人摸不著頭緒, 因為它得先把整個故事的背景及基本設定架構起來, 我們只知道主角會莫名其妙無法控制地穿越時空, 但一直沒有告訴我們到底這有什麼用意. 但是很快的, 一個簡單的事件串起整個故事, 在保持懸疑的同時讓我們對影集的定義有個概念.
看一半時我本來還半抱怨地想著, 難道現在所有的影集都走向連續劇模式了嗎? 若是如此追起來可是很累的. 不過就 pilot 看來, Journeyman 還是比較偏向單元劇的型式, 我喜歡 =D

Shark s2e1 Gangster Movies

Tuesday, September 25th, 2007

Wasn't its best, but sure is good as a beginning of another exciting TV season. Father - daughter thing is sweet but unfortunately it's one-way. It disgusts me to see her coming back for another guy but made Stark think he still has his sweet and lovely girl who wanna build a real relationship with [...]

TV is coming back!

Tuesday, September 25th, 2007

this is just an overview (der Ueberblick, one of the words I learned from the Schalke article today!)
Last night, Shark (s2) gave us a taste of 2007/08 season, and tonight we're treated with Dancing with the Stars (s5), Heroes (s2) and Journeyman (s1). It's getting busy! (... as if i was not busy.)

ESPN 是怎樣

Friday, September 7th, 2007

ESPN2 小組賽只播 Liverpool, Man U 的比賽.
ESPN Deportes 只播 Real Madrid 跟 Barca 的比賽.
不是至少應該要輪流嗎?
FSC 跟 GOL 的節目表還沒出來, 最好是會給我播! =_=

Ergh!!!!

Friday, August 17th, 2007

I was sitting at home watching Dan Mayer's first Major League start.
Meyer was fighting with the first batter, few balls were pulled foul.
One of them was catched by a guy in Manure jersey.
EW.
And that batter ended up flying the ball to right field and Cust mysteriously managed to NOT catch the ball. *gasp*
Manure's bad [...]

The Starter Wife

Tuesday, July 31st, 2007

A feel-good mini-series starring Debra Messing on USA network. You can say the plot is pretty predictable, but so what? It's a summer treat. ;)

Before I say anything else,

Monday, July 30th, 2007

前陣子加了 Sports Package, 就一直想要好好地利用.
賽季還沒開始, 我又不喜歡看新聞 (體育新聞也是), 試圖看一下 Dream Team, 感覺好像 day time drama, 好無聊. 不過我還是每天回家就打開 FSC 看看, 才覺得不會太划不來.
昨晚回到家, 它正在播 2007 UCL Final, 就是傳說中很無聊的那場比賽. 我瞄兩眼就去睡覺了.
今天查了一下 FSC 節目表, 發現他這幾天都在播近幾年的社區盾, 還有一些 FA Cup 的比賽, 可以來看看! 另外 GolTV 也開始播一些德甲跟西甲的比賽了! 來來~ 看足球! =D

Dan Haren 是先發投手, 其實我有點又愛又怕.
另外 Copa America 這兩天是準決賽, 今天有巴西, 明天有我的第二國家隊 Argentina. 在周末 Chelsea 比賽之前, 是該浸潤一下足球比賽了... 但是好多電影要看. orz

Good Charlotte [Good Morning Revival]

Friday, June 22nd, 2007

我平常不太聽 Good Charlotte 的, 即使是在兩年前極愛 punk rock 時他們也沒有成功在我心裡佔下一些地位. 不提前三張專輯聽起來究竟如何 (我一點印象也沒有), 這張 Good Morning Revival 實在蠻對我胃口的. pop punk 就該像這樣, 聽起來非常有生命力又舒服.

Like the 60th Tony, there was no host in this evening. However, the ceremony floated nicely.

06/07 TV 回顧

Tuesday, May 29th, 2007

之前寫了"我記得的2006系列", 包括"我記得的 2006: 電視", 結果發現電視非常難寫, 因為與電影 書 音樂(這項我根本沒辦法寫, 平常沒在記, 無從回顧起) 這些可以自己控制的東西不同的是電視是像學期一樣秋天開始初夏結束的. (指的是五大 Network: ABC/NBC/CBS/FOX/CW, 我比較少追 Cable 的節目, 通常是借 DVD 來看. )
所以我決定以後電視也要照一季季來寫. (球季也會比照電視這樣分季而不是分年度來寫喔! )
以下內容將包含 Gilmore Girls s7, Dancing with the Stars s3, Boston Legal s3, House, M.D. s3, Grey's Anatomy s3, Heroes s1, Shark s1, Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip s1, Day Break s1 的雷, [...]

Dancing with the Stars s4

Wednesday, May 23rd, 2007

在好不容易克服他是前 N'Sync 團員的心理障礙之後 (I hate N'Sync), 這季 Joey Fatone 是我的最愛. Joey 與 Kim 是技術+趣味, 娛樂性十足的組合.
以下是幾個我很喜歡的片段: (都是精選中的精選喔!)

Fox Trot 分別是 29/30 及 30/30

但其實我最喜歡的 Foxtrot 還是第二季 Stacey Kibler 與 Tony 的演出, 他們是我愛上 Foxtrot 的原因

Joey 的 Mambo, 火辣辣

Joey 的 Jive, 非常非常非常精彩有創意 (必看!)

但是第二季 Stacey Kibler 的 Jive 非常讓人難以忘懷, All American Girl 就是這樣吧!

Joey 在 Finale 跳的 Cha Cha, 雖然分數不高 (因為 [...]

Heroes

Thursday, May 17th, 2007

看完 s1e22 終於忍不住來寫一篇 Heroes 中討厭的人...
超級無敵討厭: Mohinder, Matt, Audrey
討厭: Peter, Simone, Issac, Eden
有點討厭: DL
這樣看下來, 很清楚的可以發現 (除了 Eden 之外), 我根本就是討厭笨蛋 (討厭 Eden 是因為覺得她很噁心, 不懂為什麼有人會被她迷得暈頭轉向耶.) 每次演到前三個人的部份時我都忍不住在心裡抱怨, 拜託趕快讓他們死掉吧! 我快受不了了. 但我也明白, 一個好的故事中, 幾個笨蛋的存在是有其必要性的! 於是, 三個討人厭大魔頭 (就是一派正直善良, 但每走一步都成為大局的絆腳石) 開開心心地在劇中跑來跑去搞砸這個那個, 倒是討厭等級二的人都快死光了呢...

Dancing with the Stars - The Tour

Monday, May 14th, 2007

Dancing with the Stars The Tour 又來了!!
今年 Stars 的部份還沒完全選出來, 但已經公布的名字就已經夠令人興奮了:
第二季冠軍 (ex-98 degrees) Drew Lachey, 第一季 (ex-NKOTB) 的 Joey McIntyre, 第四季的 (ex-N'Sync) Joey Fatone, 第三季季軍 Joey Lawrence. 四人中有三個叫 Joey, 四人中有三人是前 boy band 成員 (除了 JL), 四人中有三個我都很喜歡(除了 JM)!
很可惡的是, 今夏的巡迴竟然沒到灣區啦!!! ><

Grey's Anatomy s3e22 23

Sunday, May 6th, 2007

這集 Addison 的部份是 ABC canceled show 演員大集合嗎? Addison 走進電梯遇到 Tim Daly (Eyes, 2005), 她來拜訪的好朋友 Merrin Dungey (Alias, 基本上這不算 canceled show 啦, Alias 好歹也死拖活賴了五季), Taye Diggs (Day Break, 2006) 讓我看得好開心喔! 愛死 Tim Daly!!
但是這兩集實在是蠻難看的, 完全不值得為了它熬夜啊! 累死... 昨天開了一整天的車, 今天還有一整天的活動耶 orz
GA 終於開始讓我受不了了, 為了 Addison 的 spin off, Alex + Addison 硬生生喊停, SGH 裡面大家睡來睡去, 然後又把 Susan 弄死了. 一切都顯得非常草率隨便. 而 [...]

這季不像上季那樣瘋狂, 幾乎每集都紀錄. (我還在找平衡嘛...) 上一季我差不多把它當成作業, 實際上對作業我才沒那麼認真, 後來才發覺其實我"不必"這樣做的.
Anyways, now the remaining couples are either pretty good or ... have something about them worth supporting. Let's cut to the chase.

Shark s1e19 Fall From Grace

Saturday, April 21st, 2007

Devlin: It's like ever time I chase them to the corner, they know what's coming.

S. Stark 實在是太帥了.

[UCL] Semi-final Chelsea v Liverpool

Wednesday, April 18th, 2007

Yay~ ESPN 2 終於要直播 Chelsea 的比賽了! (廢話, 一天就那麼一場... 想播別的也沒辦法!)

Day Break

Monday, April 16th, 2007

話說前陣子發現 ABC 已將剩下幾集 Day Break 釋出, 我喜出望外一集接著一集看, 從第七集看到第十集, 卻不敢往下看. 明明案子破了, 冤情洗刷, 為什麼天明之際又回到同樣的一天. 這樣的絕望這樣的無能為力實在太恐怖. 有時我們朝一個方向不斷努力, 直到最後終於獲得幸福. 或者, 不是幸福吧. 我們努力僅僅是為了生存, 為了逃離某些壓迫著我們的事物, 但若是走到了終點, 發現自己一切心血氣力其實都是枉然, 我不願不敢想像這樣的可能性.
人走到絕路, 往往開始自暴自棄, Brent 就是這樣. 我所害怕的第十一集, 竟然是 Brent Hopper 逃避現實的 What if He Walks Away, 我之前的緊張如今顯得可笑.
Wiki 的介紹有點誤導我, 我還以為他們終究還是將短短十三集的迷你影集寫壞了. 結果並沒有呢! Day Break 好看的不得了, 而且只有短短十三集! Go check it out!

ESPN還沒宣布下周會播哪兩場比賽... 好緊張喔~
希望他們播 Chelsea 的!

為什麼還是播 Man U v AS Roma 跟 AC Milan v Bayern Muechen?

可惡的 ESPN, 跟你勢不兩立!

Shark s1e18 Trial by Fire

Friday, April 6th, 2007

這集的 Shark 不若前一集精彩, 有強力的心理戲, 健康良性的爭執.
從一開始就讓我有種哪裡不太對勁的感覺, Reina 與 Stark 對 Masters 案情的討論感覺很牽強做作, 這一段是為了帶出故事主線沒錯, 但那麼不自然實在是個敗筆.
接下來的發展幾乎完全都在意料之中. 我不是個要求什麼都要出乎意料之外什麼都要一個驚喜的觀眾, 我不排斥老套, 畢竟... "老套之所以會成為老套必有其可取之處", 而且有的時候人性就是這樣, 若是為了要給人新意而硬坳, 反而只會讓人覺得很怪很莫名其妙. 然而中間的故事性有點薄弱, 衝動的白痴警探很討人厭 (若是 Issac 在就好了,) 變態殺人魔超噁心 (為什麼沒有人拿個膠帶封住他的嘴? 不過這樣說來, 他演的真是好) 所以我一個小時幾乎就在等他那最後一擊.
其實我有點失望, 整集都像在殺時間一樣.
還不如 Brad 被卡在通風口精彩 XD

政治正確?

Tuesday, March 20th, 2007

(有些東西只在 bloglines上才看得到 XD)
在影集板上的討論"熱烈"到我懶得在 browser 打好中文寄到 ptt 信箱再貼上推文而直接回了一大段亂七八糟的英文 . 我知道我推的幾句都看起來像是原發文者不喜歡 Coupling 就罪該萬死, 其實我沒有那個意思... 只是我要推個文都得大費周張, 實在懶得說太多.
人各有所好是我很早就明白的道理, 他不喜歡英國的 sitcom 也沒什麼奇怪的. 英國的影集我也不是全盤皆收. 但你一直要跳出來說服別人美劇比英劇有質感, 那怎麼怪得了人出來為英劇護航呢? 不愛看就不要看嘛, 不要學某 g 那樣每次有人提到 Medium 就要蹦一句 "我不喜歡 Patricia", "我覺得她長得不好看", "Medium 被砍掉沒關係", 真正是惹人厭 (後來果然就被公幹了吧! 哈哈哈~ 那次我超開心的.) 不過原發文者是沒那麼討厭, 只是我覺得他被他自己認定的觀點侷限住了.
這世界本來就是這樣, 有人喜歡直接, 有人喜歡委婉. 有人認為那是粗魯, 有人覺得那是虛偽. 有人認為政治正確是禮貌是平等的表現, 也有人覺得那只是個笑話. 這讓我想到以前在查政治正確時看到, 如何不帶歧視地稱呼 "殘障人士" 幾年來就改過好多次, disabled, handicap, physically challenged... 等等, 最後又改回最原本使用的那個詞. [...]

前陣子某天轉電視時不小心看到 CBS 正在演的 The Class, 驚訝地發現裡面有 Lizzy Caplan. 回去找找資料發現是本季的新戲, 不知為何我一點也沒注意到過. (要是早知道有 Lizzy Caplan, 我應該就會看吧.)

每個角色都有不錯的發揮 (除了 Matt 仍舊自始至終都是 loser 一個,) 好個季中 cliffhanger.
只想記一下 Mr. Linderman, 這個十七集都沒有出現過, 卻跟每個人都息息相關的幕後大黑手終於現身, 而且竟然是個帶著南方口音的老先生. 完全無法接受啊!!! 當然不是說他就一定要長得兇神惡煞樣, 然而這麼十幾集來的營造, 每當人提到 Mr. Linderman 總是又敬(懼)又畏, 行事手段極為狠毒, 結果是位愛煮菜的和藹老頭. 這種厲害角色才有意思啊!! :D

Grey's Anatomy s3e17 Some Kind of Miracle

Thursday, February 22nd, 2007

都沒有空寫, 討厭.
本集承接上集結尾的荒謬與莫名其妙, 然而能看到這些老面孔還是很不錯的. 尤其是 Denny 跟 Early Edition guy (對不起, 我堅持要這樣稱呼你!)
整體說來, 這集是 lameness 大匯串. Meredith 與她媽媽的 closure (是的, 我討厭中英文混雜寫, but i'm out of time here so bear with me.) McSteamy 與 Addison 的"賭注", 每對不適合的人都要試試看能不能 make it work 嗎? (又讓我想起本周的 BL 了.) Meredith 得面對自己失去求生意志, 並且重新產生對生命的盼望; 以及 Izzie 與 Denny 的第六感生死戀.
但別誤會了, 我實在愛極片尾 Izzie 與 [...]
