Janice – Thank you. I’ve always wanted to watch Supernatural but it clashed with other shows I watched and then, I felt, it was too late to catch up. I’ll likely watch it on DVD someday. The minutes I’ve seen have impressed me.

Sean – My inner 12 year old is laughing at your inner 8 year old’s love of Veronica Mars.

Friar – I love both shows, but they aren’t on my top 5 lists.

Marc – I saw “your” Office first and LOVE it. However, our office is equally good for completely different reasons. I could write a whole post on it. I love both of them, though the BBC one a bit more.

I simply cannot wait to see the new season of Fringe. That last episode still has me brimming full of excited energy and the thrill of wanting to learn more.

I mean, wow! Did anyone see any of that coming? Particularly with…*shuts his mouth before giving everything away*

And don’t worry about clashing with the Office, once you’ve watched the real version – well, yours is just rubbish

Janice, are you watching the Supernatural re-runs on Living? I hadn’t realised how much of the first season I had missed. Great characters those two brothers.

You forgot Family Guy, and Robot Chicken!

Are you trying to make me miss cable? Dang, everything you’ve mentioned that I’m not watching sounds awesome. I’ve been wanting to watch Fringe since it started, but wanted to wait to see if it got picked up for a second season first. Glee sounds rad. Flash Forward sounds like all kinds of awesome sauce and exactly my cup of tea. We all know how I feel about LOST and I’ve been scattershot with Curb, but will catch up. I didn’t realize V was so close to release. My inner 8 year old is drooling.

Janice: Veronica Mars rules! I LOVED that show.

Thanks, Dave. I love Curb Your Enthusiasm and am waiting for Lost to finish so we can have a Lost fest on DVD like we did with 24. The current TV shows over here in Scotland aren't very inspiring at the moment, so I'm enjoying - don't laugh - reruns of Veronica Mars with the kids, Supernatural with my husband and Everwood when all of us are together and settled in for the evening. They're all brilliantly made and well written. I was raised on American TV and am still an unashamed addict. For me, the connection between watching good TV and films and enjoying reading and writing is very strong. That's why I have no problems with my kids watching well made stuff that we're OK with. When my daughter was wee, she used to write spin-offs from all her favourite Disney films.
