New spy series on Amazon Prime. First two episodes released last week. Third episode released this week. Only 6 episodes in the first season. "Everything you know is a lie." Lots of fun action sequences. One secret spy agency after another. An opening action sequence and then the main...

The new vampire comedy series Reginald the Vampire debuted tonight on SyFy. The show summary on imdb: "In a world populated by beautiful, fit and vain vampires, Reginald tumbles into it as an unlikely hero who will navigate every kind of obstacle and discovers he has a few unrecognized powers...

I was surprised to not able to find an existing topic on the upcoming Netflix The Sandman series. The release date announcement just came out today (August 5). It is a nice little preview video.

I was just posting a reply in the Doctor Who programming thread and received a "No data received ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE" when doing the reply and now when trying to load that page. Any idea what is going on and how to fix it? Thanks, Neil

The 4th and final season just started a couple of weeks ago. I've enjoyed it from the beginning.

I didn't notice a new season thread for Warehouse 13, so .... Anyway, this week's episode (1... 2... 3...) was interesting for a number of reasons. They brought back the team from 1962, they brought back HG Wells and gave her a bigger part than in the season opener, they had a Warehouse 12...

Anyone else hang on after Lost to see The Unusuals? I thought it was a fun pilot episode. It set up a long running storyline in the background to go with stories of the week. There were a variety of quirky characters. I'm looking forward to where it goes from here. There were some interesting...

I just had to write in about tonight's Medium episode. The ending to it was just so perfect I couldn't believe it. This season is off to a good start.

Season 8 of Scrubs is coming soon to ABC - January 6. There was a recent article about it in the New York Times - http://www.nytimes.com/2008/12/30/ar...on/30scru.html The article ends with an amusing bit about changes now that it will be on ABC that I had to quote here:

I posted this news at the end of the Season 1 thread so people there would see it. I think it is a good way to start the Season 2 thread. I just saw this news from NBC Goes All the Way With 'Chuck' - TVWeek - News So, it looks quite promising for the new season. I hope the ratings will match the...

This morning I received a phone call from my daughter that when she started her MacBook all she could see was a flashing question mark. She happens to be visiting a friend a couple of states away. Her MacBook is less than a year old. From what I have read the prognosis doesn't look good for the...

Back in February I ordered a Dell XPS 420 as discussed in http://www.hometheaterforum.com/htf/...endations.html Basically from the beginning I sometimes have some audio stutter problems. A file in iTunes or Windows Media Player will stutter for a few seconds and then continue on. I think this...

As mentioned in the Season 2 thread, Season 3 starts on July 29. I just found out that the writers of Eureka have a behind the scenes blog at EUREKA unscripted which has photos from the first episode, a clip from the table read of the first episode and more. Neil

I have been using my current PC for about 7 years. It has WindowsME, but I find more and more that I am going to need a new PC. The new version of TaxCut is not supported. Firefox 2.0 completely bogged down and stopped working well under ME so I had to revert back. So, I think I'll probably...

Last night's season opener for Medium was a strong episode. I was surprised of the status of things at the beginning of the episode. I would have thought things would have been "closer to normal" after Alison's solving the head case at the end of the season finale. Anyway, it was a strong...

We have a Panasonic CT27SF26 TV that is now our secondary TV, but after 8 years there is a serious problem. I don't know whether we should try to get it fixed or just throw it away or what. The color is not working properly anymore. First it was getting all blue or purple around the edges of the...

We finally got caught up on last season and saw this and then the season opener. I was completely surprised that the whole Tony-Jeanne plot thread was an operation. During the season I had been wondering a little how Tony could be spending so much time with her and doing things when he might...

We have Comcast internet at home and a Netgear router. This works quite well for our PCs. My daughter just got a MacBook and she is having trouble getting throughput with the network. Her MacBook tells her she is connected and she can usually get to one initial webpage, but after that it...

Hollywood Reporter has some casting news at http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/hr/...2fd593586097e6 including who will be playing ancient samurai warrior Takezo Kensei . Neil

As mentioned in another thread I just got a Panasonic 50PX60U TV. We set it up and last night I hooked up an old small RCA ANT130B antenna that I had around the house. I found a picture of the model on the web at http://www.htpcnews.com/forums/index...e=post&id=1530 It is a rabbit ear plus...

Looking at some of the TVs in BJs that appear to be showing non-HD source, the picture looks decidedly unimpressive. Looking at TVs with HD-source in Myer Emco looked very impressive recently. Then I saw one there showing a non-HD DVD and it looked really bad until I was standing what I felt was...

While at WalMart yesterday I saw a whole bunch of films in Spotlight Series (or something like that) boxes including the Daredevil Director's Cut. Does anyone how they differ from the previous release (if at all), this one in particular. The ones I saw were priced at $9.95 or so. Thanks, Neil

I just noticed today that at BJs Wholesale Warehouse Murphy Brown Season 1 set and Night Court Season 1 set were $13.99 each. I don't remember seeing them so inexpensive before. Neil

Does anyone here have this JVC DR-MH30S Hard Drive/DVR? It looks intriguing. Amazon sells it for about $450 at the moment. It has a 160 GB capacity Hard Drive. Pros? Cons? Thanks, Neil

The copies of the Director's cut of Daredevil at BJs have a sticker on them talking about savings on FOX DVDs inside. I haven't seen the DVD anywhere else, but I presume the coupons might be in all copies. Anyway, I am interested in knowing what the coupons inside are for. Thanks, Neil

I just placed an Amazon order and after placing it did not see an opportunity to "Share the Love." Does anyone know if this is just a small glitch or are they phasing the promotion out? I also had less items in my Share the Love list than I expected. I also didn't see the A9 piece of the...

I noticed that DVD Price Search now has the box set of all 3 seasons of Star Trek TOS listed. From reading at TV Shows on DVD, it seems it will be coming out December 14 along with the 3rd season (same time as LOTR: ROTK extended edition). Seems to be a very expensive day. Anyway, they currently...

I was wondering if anyone here has tried a firmware update on a Phillips DVD825 DVD-player. I have had some problems with the player as mentioned in these threads: Dead Zone Season 2 problems and Roger Rabbit problems I noticed in rec.video.dvd.players this note from 2000 and...

I just saw a notice over at http://www.tvshowsondvd.com/ about Season 2 of The Dead Zone and the contents. So, I did a quick price search and to my surprise saw that Deep Discount DVD has it for $23.99 - over half off the list price of $49.95. I have no idea how long they'll have it for this...

I mentioned in the weekly roundup about a $5 coupon for Jeremiah at http://www.isnnews.net The first version posted there was a little small but there is a newer version at http://www.isnnews.net/zocalo/images...D%20Coupon.jpg This same coupon can also be seen at...
