A list of the Top 15 anticipated TV events for 2009. Here's another anticipatory list from Kristin at E! And because you're dying to know what I think, here's TNRLM's list (in reverse order):
- American Idol (Top 12 Only. And please new judge, be cutting, cogent and coherent, and minimize the time devoted to "personal stories" and Randy and Paula)
- Reaper
- Big Love
- Goldblum on L&O:CI (nice to see one of the critics above give a shout out to the little watched, but compelling, Raines)
- Lie To Me
- 24
- Battlestar Galactica
- Lost
- Dollhouse
This makes a lot of sense, and why should 16% of the population continually be ignored?
Alan Sepinwall has a great interview with Ron Moore about the last part of BSG. Of particular note is his "checklist of question." And Mo Ryan has some thoughts on the next episode as well. I'm a reformed spoiler whore. I used to scour message boards and articles to find out everything I could about a show before it aired. Now? For the "major" shows (like Lost and BSG) where the surprise of the narrative is important, I try to stay as spoiler-free as possible.
Devin at CHUD is doing a very thorough and funny trek through all the original episodes and movies of Star Trek featuring the OG cast.
Speaking Trek, who knew there was Trek porn?
10 New Year's Resolutions for geeks.
I spent an inordinate amount of time going through these next 2 lists, watching video clips. It's a fascinating read. Den of Geek has assembled the Top 50 Movie Special Effects and the Top 24 Worst Movie Special Effects.
Another good cliptacular article; io9's Top 20 TV moments.
Oh fuck. Is XM Sirius in trouble next year? That would be horrific for my listening enjoyment.
Is Twitter better than SMS? Personally, I prefer SMS for "communicating" and Twitter for microblogging (when you SMS, you have to enter fewer address characters, at least on the CrackBerry, to send a message. And not all of my regular peeps are on Twitter).
A review of the Dr. Horrible DVD. (BTW, my favorite Evil League of Evil application was from Tur Moyel).
More listacular goodness -- TV.com counts down the Top 100 of everything, along with several other good listy recaps.
