What’s on

You ask, I tell:

  • 4-7 movies, usually automatic suggestions; currently Witness for the Prosecution, Caché, Akeelah and the Bee, 2046, Love in the Afternoon (1957), Stage Door, Bringing Up Baby
  • Season 3 of Slings and Arrows
  • A couple of episodes of Iron Chef and Iron Chef America
  • 15-20 episodes of Good Eats
  • Various clips of shows, e.g. Colin Mochrie’s self-referential appearance on Corner Gas and Stephen Colbert trash-talking the Sarnia Sting (Hey Sarnia: you suck, and so does Sting!)

There’s a reason I don’t have many series on there: although I record a lot of episodes, I tend to watch and delete them within a couple of days. But in the interest of completeness, here’s my list of scheduled programs, in no particular order:

  • The 4400
  • Good Eats
  • Family Guy
  • Smallville
  • Prison Break
  • House
  • Venture

  1. Wow that’s a lot of shows. As for the movies, Cache is great and terrible at the same time (you’ll completely get why if you watch it). I have Akeelah ziplisted, and 2046 I heard was good but I don’t typically like Chinese movies. My biggest peeve is probably Jet Li, so at least he’s not in that one.

  2. Yeah, it’s a long list now that I see it all in one place… the scary thing is that I’ve trimmed it down! My saving grace has been that most of the Canadian shows have reduced seasons; it’s also annoying, though, since those are some of my favourites. Intelligence just finished its eight-episode season, Jane has been off the air since it ended its 13-episode season last year, Rick Mercer finishes up in about a month, Venture hasn’t started yet, Marketplace just started its season a couple of weeks ago, and Ed’s Up ended last week.

    As for the rest, it’s amazing what commercial skip, playback speed multipliers and fast-forward can do. 🙂

  5. No new episodes? :'( I was just starting to get into it… shocking to me because it’s a …gasp… MuchMusic (or is it MTV?) show!
