So It Begins...

Tonight, the new television season began for Marilyn and I with the premiere episode of Prison Break. Needless to say, it was a dud. I am not quite sure why we continue to watch this show, but it is sort of like itching a scratch that you cannot quite ignore. Michael and the gang are once again trying to take down the "Company" with some hair brained scheme that is supposed to free them from their various sordid pasts. I can honestly say that I hope this show does not make it past mid-season. Even though I feel like I am loosing brain cells by continuing to watch the show, I have this fascination with finding out how it will end. The real season will kick off tomorrow with the fist episode of The Shield's final season. We CANNOT wait to see how Vic and the rest of the Barn's residents will end their run. The Shield is one of the best shows on television and you would be doing yourself a favor if you started watching the past seasons on DVD.

Treasure Found

I have an unabashed love for PBS programming and watch it constantly. While my two favorite shows are American Experience and History Detectives, my guilty pleasure is Antiques Roadshow. I am not quite sure what it is about this show, but I find it to be compulsively watchable. I think it is the fact that there is so much lost history that is rediscovered by everyday people. Sometimes Mar looks at like I am crazy when we have two or three episodes backed up on our DVR, but I just can't pass recording new episodes when they air. Anyways, most of my favorite items have been antique furniture. There is just something fun about people bring in their trinkets to be explained and appraised. So, go ahead and lambaste me for this confession, but I would recommend this show to anyone.
