So, what have I been up the past months? Hmmmm...a lot, actually. But one of the most interesting things that I've been religiously doing is watching a lot (more than a lot, actually!) of t.v. shows and movies. I've become so addicted to downloading our favorite t.v. shows that watching them has become a part of my daily routine. Anyway, here are the shows that keep me on my toes every day:
1.Criminal Minds - I have always been a fan of this show. I love the characters and the way they work together. I love watching the BAU (Behavioral Analysis Unit) profile serial killers and murderers. I love analyzing the complex characters and situations. And I love Dr. Spencer Reid! The latest season has some twists, like Morgan taking over Hotch as head of the team - but things are just as great!
2.House - I'm a Dr. House fan! Always have been and always will be! I simply love this man! There's a lot of drama in the latest season, especially since House just completed rehabilitation/therapy for his addiction to his meds. The departure of Cameron and her separation from Chase has also left a lot of new doors open, like the return of 13 and Taub to the team. I still miss Kutner, though.
3.Ghost Whisperer - I love Melinda Gordon! I love the way she is able to help people - both living and dead. There's something beautiful in every story, in every character that is introduced into the show. This new season is a "testing" one for Melinda and her husband Jim, since they already have a son, Aidan, who, at a young age, is already showing signs that he can be more powerful than his mom.
4.Supernatural - The Winchester brothers just keeps them coming! This season is filled with a lot of angry foes and realizations for both Dean and Sam. They still have an angel guarding them, though (Castiel). It's always great to see the good overpower the evil in every episode. I guess that's one of the reasons why this show is on my list: the fact that the good always triumphs over the bad somehow gives me hope. Of course, I also want to know how things will eventually turn out for the brothers - one of whom is a vessel of God and his angels, while the other is the devil's vessel.
5.Glee - Oh, I am so loving Glee! It's just fun and entertaining! It never fails to brighten my day! I love the music and the songs, and the characters are just so close to home that I can't help but feel with them. The fact that the "Glee Club" is a major factor in the show is just awesome! I just can't help but recall grade school years...
6.How I Met Your Mother - One of the biggest reasons I love this show? Barney Stinson (Neil Patrick Harris in real life). He simply knows how to deliver the funniest, most absurd lines! HIYMYM never fails to make me laugh, no matter what mood I am in. The words "awesome," "legendary," and "suit up!" have become such a part of my life that I sometimes find myself using them!
7.Leverage - This is new in my list as the series is just on its second season. I love the way ex-con men and women are able to con the cheating and lying "big fishes" - those who won't think twice about using their power to overpower the weak and poor. The characters are fascinating and their "jobs" (or missions) involve situations that really happen in real life.
8.The Mentalist - This is also new in my list - and thanks to a friend, I've never stopped watching from the day I first "laid eyes" on Patrick Jane! Jane is like the "Dr. House" of the California Bureau of Investigation and he uses the "mind" to help his team solve crimes and close cases. He "reads" people and analyzes situations; and sometimes, he uses hypnotism. In short, he uses unconventional means in solving cases - but his teams ain't complaining! For me, Patrick Jane belongs to the same boat that Dr. Gregory House rocks! They are two of my most favorite television characters, ever!
9.Dexter - Dexter is a blood spatter specialist, one of the best. He helps solve cases. What I like about Dexter's story is its twist: at night, Dexter is a serial killer! Pretty mind blowing, right? I've seen just a couple of episodes of this show, but I'm already hooked to it!
10.True Blood - Sukie Stackhouse's story is simply interesting! And I simply love vampires!
There are several other shows that I follow , but my fascination for them hasn't reached the level of my top faves yet. Of course, I still watch my other faves - CSI (all three), Numbers, Medium, and Chuck. But for now, I'm glued to those in my top 10 list.
How about you? What about your favorite shows?
Happy viewing, everyone!
