jazzbo Posted January 17, 2010 Report Share Posted January 17, 2010 I don't watch either of those. Possibly for me the funniest is "Better Off Ted." The second to the last episode was off the wall hilarious. Just finished watching the dvd that comes with the Neil Young "Living With War -- RAW -- In the Beginning" set. The cd has the album without the choir and a few other production features, which is an interesting way to listen to the album. The DVD shows Neil and Rick and Chad going through the songs for the first time and some great takes, many of which are used on the cd. And it has this really interesting CNN type newscast thing going on, "LWW" instead of "CNN", with the scrolling type, and footage of the Iraq war, Al Gore and "The Inconvenient Truth," Bush and Cheney, etc. Also interesting was a discussion during the recording of needing a real leader now, and Barack Obama is brought up as a possible candidate running in '08 and someone says "He might not be ready" and Neil says something to the effect of "he may be ready, he may know that now is really the time, it's time for action and he should do it." I really like this and the bonus dvd that came out with the second cd/dvd combo of "Greendale." Neil is making some of the most effective "protest" music in this century in my opinion.

Van Basten II Posted January 20, 2010 Report Share Posted January 20, 2010 Mad Men episode 6, don't know what she looks like in real life but have they found a way to make Christina Hendricks appetizing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzbo Posted January 20, 2010 Report Share Posted January 20, 2010 The episode with Teri GArr. . . "Assignment Earth." I've said it before, but I jsut can't believe how amazing these Star Trek Blu-Rays look and sound. Incredible! Mad Men episode 6, don't know what she looks like in real life but have they found a way to make Christina Hendricks appetizing. Apparently she looks pretty good in real life too if she's your type. (Not really MY type. But I think she's a decent actress, I like her in Mad Men and really liked her in Starfly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Van Basten II Posted January 20, 2010 Report Share Posted January 20, 2010 Finally saw pictures of her and if you don't mind me saying so she can put her slippers below my bed anytime she wants. My point was that the hairdo and the wardrobe she has for this series fits her quite well and is enhancing her beauty and sexyness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BruceH Posted January 21, 2010 Report Share Posted January 21, 2010 The episode with Teri GArr. . . "Assignment Earth." That must be one of the first things she ever did. Also used to be one of my favorite episodes growing up. That was the pilot for a possible spinoff series that was never picked up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidewinder Posted January 23, 2010 Report Share Posted January 23, 2010 Last night - The Canadian TV documentary on Lenny Breau put together by Lenny's daughter. Great film, great player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzbo Posted January 23, 2010 Report Share Posted January 23, 2010 Watched this dvd again as SyFy was premiering it as the pilot of the new series last night. (I wanted to be out while it was broadcasting, so watched it earlier). I think the series has promise. Started watching Damages Season Two as Season Three is beginning Monday. I didn't have cable when this season was new so I'm getting caught up. Season One, which I watched on Blu-Ray, was INTENSE. Rose Byrne needs to eat!

Free For All Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 Bullitt in blu-ray. The chase scene will always rock. Also love Lalo's score. Especially the almost Batman-like music (cue diminished chords) leading up to the car chase, and then how the music cuts out for the chase scene, just the throaty sound of the engines. Awesome.

jazzbo Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 (edited) Started watching Damages Season Two as Season Three is beginning Monday. I didn't have cable when this season was new so I'm getting caught up. Season One, which I watched on Blu-Ray, was INTENSE. Rose Byrne needs to eat! I just finished watching this season. Compelling story-telling! Like "Mad Men," thiss is a show that has very few characters that I relate or care for. There are a few though, who are victims of the powerful forces at work. David and Katie Conner I can relate and care for. Gives me an anchor I don't have in Mad Men. And. . . the writing and the method of delivery. Wow. I just could not STOP watching each of the two seasons. Their method of showing bits and pieces of the denouemant right up front and episode by episode is disconcerting at first but it's done very skillfully. Season Three starts tomorrow night. I'll be watching. Edited January 24, 2010 by jazzbo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jazzmoose Posted January 26, 2010 Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 I started watching season one of Have Gun, Will Travel. Never seen it; heck I missed the first season being born. Judging by the first few episodes, it's better than the TV westerns I do remember, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzbo Posted January 26, 2010 Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 Watched the first episode of "Damages," Season Three. Going to be a good season. Martin Short AND Lily Tomlin in serious roles as new characters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
