TV/Movie General Discussion

1. The 60th Annual Primetime Emmy Awards were on last night, here are the winners and nominees for those interested:

Notables were: Alec Baldwin & Tina Fey (Best in Comedy), 30 Rock (Best Comedy), Glenn Close (Best in Drama), Jeremy Piven (Supporting in Comedy). Can't believe they didn't give the Emmy to Hugh Laurie for Best Actor in a Drama, and I also thought Michael Emerson (LOST) deserved the Supporting Actor in a Drama award. Also, Mad Men as the Best Drama Series? Beating out the likes of LOST, House, Damages, Dexter, and Boston Legal... are they nuts?

2. Another X-Files- like show has been picked up by Sci-Fi called Warehouse 13, though this seems to be of a more comedic nature (Dramedy):

The Mentalist: season 1

I watched this show and I must say I was expecting alot from it and I wasn't disappointed at all. In fact I haven't been so impressed with the premiere of a show since House or Supernatural. This show is definitely a must watch and from me that is saying alot. I recommend everyone at least check it out. I still can't believe how much I like this show and I've only seen one episode. It reminds me of Life.

I have to agree. I watched the pre-air a couple of months ago and it was awesome. If you like these type of procedural shows, a new one coming up that might be good too is Eleventh Hour. It starts on October with CSI.

From the ones I mentioned above, I also watched Worst Week... not sure where it's heading, but it had quite a few very funny moments.
