Don't Miss Out


Just a reminder that the summer is a fantastic time to watch repeats of shows so you can catch up for next year. Why risk skin problems and getting sunburned, by lying out by the pool? No...you should definitely be watching all the goodness that is Veronica Mars and Battlestar Galactica.

It's a hard sell, I know, which is why I'm mentioning. People seem to think Veronica Mars is some kind of teen Nancy Drew show, which couldn't be farther from the truth. It's more like Buffy the Vampire Slayer meets Magnum P.I. (I'm not sure that helped.) And Battlestar has the same problem Buffy once had--its name keeps people from watching. But I'll tell you, it's much more a drama than a science fiction show, and I'd go as far as to say that it was the most consistently good drama on tv last year--bar none.
