Rescue Me...Pretty good show, funny/entertaining, some good drama. Those dead people that keep re-appearing creep the hell out of me though..

Entourage ... funny as hell and has tons of hot a$$

Thank god for TIVO, without it I would never watch anything, it absolutely rules and now is on sale for $100 but you still have the $300 activation fee though.

I returned my tivo. The menu system was painfully slow, had no option to lock channels from my kids and no ability to have custom settings for different people in my house. I had the DTV TIVO combo machine. The dual tuner and recording features were great but the menu and the rest of it blew chunks.

It's great now that you can skip commercials, but "In show advertising" is really startin' to suck ass.

If im watching the tube at all anymore, it has to be a sporting event. I've stopped watching tv for the most part because its not a real depiction of how life is anymore. No one is poor, if you're hurt in ER, you're really hurt and two things happen: You're going to live or, you are going to die in an overt manner.... its not really real anymore.

I was big on Law and Order for a while but now i've grown tired of that.

One of the best few shows that i would actually TIVO if they were still on are Cheers and Roseanne. At least the first few years of Roseanne. they showed some regulare people in some kind of odd relationships and situations but they manage to either succeed or just get by.

Life isn't always peaches and cream like in Friends or in Will and Grace.

I've seen previews for Rescue Me, and the only reason why i would like it is cuz of Dennis Leary. Cuz he's an asshole.;)

I work as a grip on the show sometimes as a day player, I was mostly working with them when they were shooting in rockaway beach in queens. I was also there when the driver of the brand new firetruck crashed into the electric truck that has a 500 gallon gas tank and the guy almost killed us all

The Forgotten trailer gives me chills. That movie looks amazing, can you give me any more depth about the movie?
