OFF TOPIC

Netflix anyone?

I'm in season 5 I believe of Haven.

Everyone has these things called "troubles" which are curses.

I've been debating what trouble I would choose if there was a choice of having which one is thrown on you/your family.

Anyone else watching or has watched?

I'm reluctant to post anything else if no one else knows this show.

I don't think it would be my vacation destination of choice.

Fun Fact:That slimy latino guy who lived on the boat once made a soft porn flick.

Slimy Latino Guy was actually his soft porn name

Duke?

He just cut his hair. He's kinda turning into too much of a nice guy which is killing his character now IMO.

Last season, a character was in it who is the lead gal in "Bitten" which is about the werewolves.

What other shows have you seen?

Thanks

If you plug your tv into a digital compatible aerial you may be able to pick up a new channel called Comet, free, over the air. All Sifi shows.

I just started another show right now.

ZOO

I'm thinking Claude should not watch this or he may change his mind about getting a cat.

  Saw a couple of episodes, interesting premise. A case for enforced vegetarianism.

Laura Vandervoort is smokin' hot. She apparently played Supergirl on Smallville and is now going to play a villain on Supergirl. Hollywood, you so crazy!

The upcoming season of Bitten will be the last, unfortunately. (Although, I thought season two with the witches was a bit drawn out.)

I second Mark's comments (which pains me a little bit

) on Eureka and Warehouse 13. The first seasons of both shows were excellent. Warehouse 13 lost some steam in the final season or two. (The male lead went to high school about six miles from where I live and constantly wears a Hoover Wrestling t-shirt on the show - just a bit o' trivia). Eureka went out on a decent note, but the episodes were getting a little thin. Good shows, though, for mind candy viewing.

If you have Amazon Prime, Bosch is really good. Prime also has The Man in High Castle. We're three episodes in. So far, pretty good.

Thanks

LOL, I am still overwhelmed still with netflix. By the time I finish seeing some of this stuff, there will likely be new episodes of Orange is the new Black playing and I still won't get bored. But it could happen.

I got added onto a family like plan to the netflix.

You can do that with Prime, as well. Find someone with a Prime membership and start begging. Prime is actually the better overall deal with all the extras you get.

Sounds like a plan.

I'll make my sister get it.

The wife and I have seen every episode except for the series finale. We haven't been willing to watch it because we don't want to let go of the show. Lord knows how long it'll sit on our DVR before we watch it. (We put off watching the final three episodes of Fringe for nearly two years...We're weird like that.)
