[QUOTE="TheLe, post: 3236665, member: 3981"] So, what am I watching on tv today? Here's my answer... [b]BATTLESTAR GALACTICA[/b] Great season so far! I have not watched the season finale' yet, but I am loving almost all of it so far (the boxing episode stunk). The funny thing is that I HATED season 1 and Season 2. It wasn't until Season 2a that I really started liking it (when they found the Pegasus). Personally, I think they should have spent the entire season on New Caprica -- that went by way too fast. Still, the rescue from New Caprica is my favorite so far. Lots of emotion and sci-fi action! [b]AMERICA'S NEXT TOP MODEL[/b] I can't believe Caridee won. Sure she had a natural look, but Melrose gave far more effort. Not to mention Caridee had that really stupid "John Kerry" moment and told a really terrible joke. Augh. Why does this show mock me? [b]DR. WHO[/b] You know, I was always lukewarm to Christopher Eccleston's new doctor last season. I grew up with the legendary Tom Baker, and liked Sylvester McCoy (but didn't watch too many of those episodes). I even liked Paul McGann in the Dr. Who television movie (quite a bit actually). But Eccleston was just a little too wonky for me - The black leather jacket and the just odd playfulness. That being said, I am loving the current doctor, David Tenant. I think he is just fantastic as he adds just the right charm that and personality that Eccleston was missing. Of course we can't forget Rose, who's hot hot hot!
