Okay, I am assuming everyone watched the season premier of Law & Order, and if you didn't shame on you.
Yesterday was the debut of Dennis Farina as Detective Fontanta, the replacement for the long-standing Lennie Briscoe. Now, who didn't like Lennie? He was about as good as they come. Him leaving for a new show really left some big shoes to fill.
That being said, I feel that Farina performed as....
A+! A-freakin'-Plus! They could not have found a better replacement! I mean... too cool!
Quite radically different than his predecessor, but it fits in the show very nicely. I mean, usually, only the lawyers are all richsies, but Fontana.... holy carp!
"That is a nice ride."
"Eh, it's not bad."
What do you guys think? And if you think nothing, get watchin' Law & Order. They have so many anymore that you are bound to find one at just about any hour of the day, oftentimes two or three

"That was a $300 shirt! ... Ah, easy come, easy go."
Too cool! x2
I thought he was great! And I only unfortunately saw the 2nd episode since I thought the two hours began at 10
He'll do well to tide over Lenny loss... until L&O: Trial by Jury comes out, that is

I haven't watched TV in months, with the exception of the weather channel, from time to time to keep an eye on where those hurricanes head.
Oh yeah, what's left of Ivan passed through here last night as a Tropical Storm.

Hmm all I watch is Family Guy and Neighbours and occaisonaly the simpsons (I love the simpsons but it always seems to be a repeat :S). Oh and Monday nights rock with John Saffran vs God and Pizza :D. And I usually watch an episode of futurama before bed (DVD) and the odd spot of certain other DVD genre.
Law and Order seem rather boring.

I don't exactly watch TV as in watch it regularly; whenever my dad turns on the TV and channel-surfs, and I happen to be in the same room at the same time with nothing to do, that's pretty much the only time I watch TV.
I mean, everything on American television falls under violence/murders, news, sports, romance, and stupidity. Except for some good movies from time to time, that is.

Hey, you have Matt Groening and Seth Green to make you some f***en awesome cartoons!

Yeah, there is always funny cartoons, too.
So you got murder, violence (although I would like to know where with the pussies that run the networks ), romance, news, sports, stupidity, and now comedy on the list.
.... congratulations, you have just pretty much listed every freakin' genre. What are you expecting, man? The magical show that sends you booze and women through electromagnetic waves?
.... actually, I would like that show.
And to be honest, none of what you mentioned is even on anymore; everything is mostly reality programming. Boo.

Oooh South Park aint bad, but we often just get repeats.
I think there needs to be a channel with all the awesome Aussie shows, Full Frontal and Fast Forward (BEST SKETCH SHOWS EVAAAA), Pizza, John Saffran shows, umm what else we got... I dunno, quality not quantity ey! And yeah, must admit Reality TV is taking over. we only got a few free channels, 1 is just Australian/American/Iraqnid Idol, Big Brother Law and Order and Simpsons, another is just second rate Reality TV shows that only last a season, game shows, survivor and occaisonally really late at night some decent cartoons, one thats pretty much all footy, news and movies (but I dont get it), one thats all lil kids shows through the day and Australian/Pomish drama at night and the last wich does all international news, sports and underground Aussie TV programes.

Jeopardy!...Ken Jennings is dominating that show, right? With a 47-some-day winning streak and over $1.5 million in winnings?

Let's see, I wonder what it means if a post in a forum suddenly is deleted?
I know! It probably means that it was deleted.
Extra-sitular linking in a new post about something there already is an active topic for... not the normal thing Camo's posts are deleted for, but deletion-worthy nonetheless.

Well, Camo, you could just EDIT your post to include it.
