That guy's a pussy

it only took me three months to watch all five seasons, and I watched the first three in two weeks. I worked full time (40-55 hours/week) at the time too.

I can attest to how popular TV-DVD is... the majority of dvd rentals we got at the movie store when I worked there were the TV titles (after the big name releases that week)

I've been meaning to make a post about this... but what this decade will be remembered for will be the fucking amazing TV shows. I mean some decades were remembered for the music, some for the amazing comics/cartoons. These past five years especially have been fantastic for TV shows, especially after the decline of the reality crap.

Also I think the writer is a chick.

What's been so great?  I don't follow television, but I haven't really been particularly impressed with anything.  Though I still want to watch Battlestar Galactica, I think I've pretty much decided I completely hate Lost.  24 doesn't do anything for me at all.  Most of the other stuff I've seen lately hasn't been great.  About the only stuff I watch lately is M*A*S*H (yes, I like that show), Futurama, the occasional episode of whatever Law and Order happens to be on, and Metalocalypse.

I think if you list some of the best TV shows of all time, most of them seem to have come very recently. On the other hand, for me at least, movies have been in a massive decline.

I guess I'll take your word for it.
