    Brothers and Sisters season 1 thread

    Yup, there are encore repeats of the same episode on Friday nights in case people missed it on Sunday nights. PLUS, the encore comes right after Grey's Anatomy encores. So this is a good gauge of how popular Brothers & Sisters will get. I hope more people tune in on Friday nights. I would really...

    Brothers and Sisters season 1 thread

    The final bye scene is actually an "open-ended" bye. This way this gives the writers/creators freedom depending on fanfare. If the fans love Scotty, they'll bring him back. If the fans don't like Scotty, then they will introduce a new love interest for Kevin. However, I think a lot of fans...

    Kevin needs a good slap of reality when it comes to dating. That was so rude and vicious of him to yell at Scotty. Even I would have left if he didn't respect my opinion. Scotty is not in the next 2 eps accordingly This episode was really well done. Hopefully, people now can branch off into...

    It's already been announced on the abc.com official site. How can that be a spoiler? A spoiler is something that hasn't been officially sanctioned by the network. And it was released the same day on ABC.Com as the current episode on Sunday.

    Decisions! If you had both Blu-Ray and HD DVD players, which disc would you buy?

    Like many others, it really comes down to 1) price and 2) extras & goodies...and a HDDVD/DVD combo with movie in either side isn't what I call "extra" or "goodies" for that matter. I think I will buy my fave movies in both formats just to do side-by-side comparisons, but for now, there's not...

    Ack, I wrote this long thing only to lose it because of some keyboard command failure :frowning: Anyway, I also love this show to death. Scotty (Luke Macfarlane) is my most favorite character from the show (and he's only a guest star too...go fig). Though I really love Sally Field's...

    Brothers and Sisters season 1 thread

    As of now, we don't know the specifics of his past relationship, we can only conjecture based on what Kevin stated and his reaction a few things as to why he is not having a relationship or giving excuses. Interesting to note is in the 1st episode when Nora asks Kevin to stay with her, if...

    Brothers and Sisters season 1 thread

    Well, it was mentioned the reason he's single has to do with infidelity (something to do with having an affair...not sure whose fault that was) that split him and his previous boyfriend apart. This was explained in a sentence or two in ep. 2 when Scotty saw the pic of Kevin with his past...

    The Amazing Race 10

    I'm excited the Kentucky team is still in the race. They have come to be one of my favorite couples. Yeah, they may seem like bumpkins, but they're ultra cool bumpkins and I love them and very friendly with people of different nature and that gives them a big plus in my book.

    HTF Anime Discussion Part VIII

    Although I love Geneon, the dot-crawls on the anime drive me insane and the alpha-blending is bad too on the background. But c'est-la-vie. There's a slight EE on many American anime DVDs (as there are also on Japanese DVDs). That's what happens when you have people encoding mpeg2 and using...

    HTF Anime Discussion Part VIII

    I really didn't enjoy Witch Hunter Robin as much as I wanted to. That ending really ruined it for me and the series got boring and drawn out to the point of ridiculousness. First 13 episodes were monster of the week episodes...**snore**...then the last 13 episodes were the meat of the plot until...

    tenjou tenge anime was pretty watered down compared to the manga. Although I wouldn't read the English adapted manga by CMX because it's highly edited which is sad. And no, the manga wasn't finished and still not done yet. As for Patlabor, I'm a bigger fan of the TV series and not the OVA. I...

    Ugh, time to repurchase Tylor again. I bought the original when they were under Media Blasters (??)... I forgot. Anyways, TRSI looks to have made a better version. :)

    I've no interest in Basilisk since the interest in Basilisk was subdued from the early acquisition announcement and hence the lack of fansubs to draw interest into the anime. I don't buy what I haven't seen/watched.

    PC Magazine asks: "Will Sony Ever Be Sony Again?"

    Sony Japan is rather on the innovative electronics side, more so than content...even though they also own their own music label and pictures, but their products in Japan are on par or better in Japan. I mean, blu-ray was released in Japan two years ago. Sony USA, on the other hand, seems to...

    Sony releasing BR PC Drive in July

    I have no idea why Sony USA is doing this to BR-ROMs because the BR-ROMs in Japan work perfectly well playing blu-ray movies made in Japan as showcased in the Tokyo Electronics Fair (Sony had bunch of blu-ray movies being played off of computers with BR-ROMs).

    I Bought the Toshiba

    Not quite sure if to start a new topic thread or post it here, I was checking out an eletronic online store and they have listed a Toshiba HD-XA1 which is the higher level HD-DVD player with 1080p support and HDMI v1.3 output and costs at a retail of $799 (unlike the regular lower level HD-A1 at...

    Sony releasing BR PC Drive in July

    Which means, Sony did manufacture the BR-ROM to play movies but had it disabled at the time of manufacturing. All they need to do is release a firmware upgrade to enable it once the HDCP compliant hardware becomes standardized (and so forth) in PCs. This also means, hackers also have a chance of...

    Sony releasing BR PC Drive in July

    Not really since they say it won't play now, but the feature of playability is manufactured onto the drive and has been disabled and all it takes is a firmware bios patch once more HDCP compliant hardware is more readily available. Manufacturers usually just disable a feature and enable it via...

    ninin shinobu den ("Ninja Nonsense") is a pretty crappy show...it has its laughs and all but overall pretty boring to boot. Although I shouldn't diss it as Right Stuf has the rights to it and they did do a good job with the dubbing (which made it more tolerable to watch...don't ask me why)...

    HD DVD 4th Quarter Article and X Box 360 HD DVD Add On

    Isn't the HD-DVD add-on for Xbox 360 only for the high end Xbox 360 and not the low end one? If so, then the combo price will end up being higher for those who want both an xbox and hd-dvd than the ps-3. If not, it can be priced as competitively with the ps-3 as a combo set. But then, why...

    I've watched the pilot episode. Definitely will be on my must-watch list for sure. I need a good character development show that's not always action-y.

    It's amazing how much things get boosted while playing on a HDTV...thing I've never seen on an analogue CRT TV. So now I can see the dot crawl, the alpha blending problems, moire, edge enhancements, etc.. It's very obvious on the American R1 DVDs for anime. I'll have to look through my Japanese...
