Everything else I have to get online or on DVD since we don’t subscribe to cable. I like scifi too, but gave up the trekky religion years ago. My favorite modern scifi is Battlestar Galactica and Firefly.

Oh, and there’s also The L Word of course – probably our most very favorite show ever (wink wink.)

I intensely dislike programming suposedly designed for women (by men who think they know what women are supposed to like).

As for movies, I prefer those with a lot of violence and bad language. (ex. Con Air.) What does that do to the steriotypical image of what old ladies are like?

It’s more sociological argument than cop show: Season one was about the loss of the drug war and the institutional corruption that led to Enron, season two about the death of the American dream, season three about how politicians often are the problem rather than the solution, and season four will look at how children get “schooled” — either in a classroom or on the street.

Brilliantly written, brilliantly acted, magnificently cast with a wide assortment of character actors (no superstars here to distract from the storyline) — there’s nothing else like it on television.

(And you say there’s no God?!)
