Currently Worth Watching

Pushing Daisies

Pushing Daisies: Water & Power
An Emerson heavy episode where he spends the time in search of one Penny.

TiVo has been recording pilot episodes at random. It took me month to watch them but now I'm hooked. Even when some have been canceled.

Privileged: Pilot
A college grad played by Joanna Garcia goes to NYC fails at being a magazine writer then becomes a tutor to rich brats in Miami. It's funny and clever basically they are making fun of the new generation of celebrities.
It's been canceled so I may watch as many episodes that they air.

True Blood: Episodes 1-8
Since Buffy there has been a lack of good supernatural shows. Supernatural on the CW is fine but a bit ridiculous at times. I did not original watch this show because they said it was a copy of Twilight a series of awful vampire novels for teens/tweens.
Finally bored enough to watch it HBO ramped up the sex and blood and it turn out to be great.

Vampires have announced their presence to he world and in two years are trying to get equal rights, possibly with a hidden agenda. Now they can be sustained by Tru-Blood a Japanese fake blood safe for vamppires. Sookie Stackhouse is a telepath and meets and falls for a nice vampire.
The show asks if vampires and telepathy is possible then what else is possible. The explanation for vampires is magic, at least up to the episode I've seen. June 14 is the second season premiere and I'm catching up quickly.

Pushing Daisies

Interrupting my regularly scheduled nonsense for new episodes of Pushing Daisies.

Dressed to Kill
The first 8 minutes were an artistic assault on the English language.
There was a fake kidnapping and a fake engagement and some real jealousy on Ned's part.
Brilliant episode as usual.

The Barrack Obama 1/2 Hour Comedy Hour

I'll be watching Pushing Daisies. No offense to any candidate but seriously I got TiVo to skip commercials.

I've heard a rumor there is also a World Series without a NY team...ooooh creepy.
