What's Da Guy Watching Now?

It's used to be all about the Big Screen, aka "the Movies" and the theatres they were shown in. As the quality of that experience has diminished and the price becomes unreasonable (see Da Guy's Frustrations) with the exception of major theatrical events, it's all about the little screen, aka "Television", Da Guy's home theatre and Netflix these days. Here you can find some of the shows that Da Guy watches on a regular basis. Take a peek, you may find something new yourself.

The Little Screen (May 2010)

...and no, it's not generally about network television for Da Guy these days. Extended Cable channels seem to be the way to go for the most part. Channels and programs in bold are Da Guy's current favorites.

Gone but not Forgotten

Some TV shows go well before their time. Here is a list of some Da Guy misses.

  • The Dresden Files
  • Eli Stone
  • Merlin
  • Pushing Daisies
  • Star Trek Enterprise -- the latest series which was cancelled after an all-to-short 4 seasons, set in the time before the original Star Trek. This is where it all began -- establishment of the Prime Directive, early connections with the Vulcans and other species. Da Guy's favorite series, by-far, due to the great casting, attention to detail helping to tie all the story lines from it's predecissor series together, and great character development on-par with the much longer running TNG.
    Star Trek Enterprise - The Complete Seasons 1-4 Nearly all of these episodes are worth watching again, to the degree Da Guy has the complete DVD set. The best of the best include:
    • Episode 721 (#1 in the Enterprise Series) "Broken Bow" starts the human search into the far reaches of space
    • Episode 7 "The Andorian Incident" is where we are introduced to the Andorian, we find out some things about the Vulcans, and Archer begins his role as negotiator between intergalatic worlds
    • Episode 13 "Dear Doctor" is where the concept of the "Prime Directive" is created
    • Episode 19 "Acquisition" is funny and our introduction to the Ferrengi
    • Episode 35 "Singularity" is where the terms "Condition Red" and "Tactical Alert" come to be
    • Episode 60 "Twilight" is all about relationships and loyalty
    • Episode 62 "Similitude" will get you thinking
    • Episode 67 "Harbinger" is where Tripp and Topol get hooked up
    • Episode 73 "E2" is the connection with TNG
    • Episode 83 "The Forge", 84 "Awakening", and 85 "Kishara" start bringing this series to a close
