One of the best drama's i've seen for a while, I have currently been hooked on "THE WIRE" which is probably the best show ever made. Damages starts slowly and the character "Ellen" played by Rose Byrne seems an unlikely heroin. But as time passes she becomes all you want from a hero in a series. Glen Close definitly steels the show with a outstanding on screen display, you can't decide wheather you love or hate her.
I can't wait for Season 2 which is currently being filmed. Ted "cheers" Danson also plays a blinder as a Big Bussiness Fat Cat who although shows us how far he will go to cement his legacy he still has a concience.
If you watch it you will love it,If you choose not to watch it you will miss out on what Modern T.V shows ... Read More:

The 6th season of Larry is quite strong, better than the previous two. Here Larry gives in to Sheryls suggestion that they house a family made homeless after a hurricane. The Blacks arrives, and this gives rise to so many misunderstandings, insults and plain weird things to easily fill up a whole season where we follow Larry on his hopeless quests. If you liked earlier seasons of Curb Your Enthusiasm, you wil probably like this. Also, if you're a fan of Seinfeld (I am) I think there is some 50% chance that you will love this and recognize the creative mind behind it all. Some Seinfeld fans don't like Larry at all, but I can't help noticing that he is a combination of Jerry and George Costanza, in one person!

DVD : Saving Private Ryan [1998]
the first 20 minutes of this film is mind blowing with the d-day beach landings where the soldiers just run into artillery fire and bombs it's so realistic it's frightning.
but then the action slows down has we follow the rescue mission , the cast all perform brilliantly and the "master" mr spielberg keeps us entertained throughout the journey but after the start to the film any other action scene's will obviously dissapoint.this film is a must buy for all war film fans just for the brutal battle scene's alone.

One of the best horror anthologies to come out of the early 80s and one I practically grew up with. Using a very clever homage to the old EC horror comics and with it's black swollen tongue stuck firmly in it's skeletal cheek, this film takes us through a series of absolutely brilliant macabre stories specially written by Stephen King.

Classics include the wrath of a father who just wants his cake, a vengeful murderous husband who gets in some serious deep water..*snigger*, a hapless fool who should never have touched a fallen meteor, a desperately unhappy man finding the perfect alternative to a divorce thanks to the unlikely discovery of a crate and a contemptible tycoon with a phobia of bugs getting just what he deserves. There's also a neat little filler ... Read More:

I Am Spock

this boxset comntains both 3 Men and a Baby as well as 3 Men and a Little Lady.

Directed by Leonard Nimoy and starring Tom Selleck, Ted Danson & Steve Guttenberg this film is about 3 womanising men who wake up one morning to find a little baby on thier door step and the fallout that ensues from this discovery. Added into the mix are a couple of drug dealers and you have a truly classic film which has some lovely and touching moments.

the sequel is not as good (like most sequels) but is still well worth watching just for Tom Selleck and Steve Guttenberg in Tuxedos. All in all these are family films that should be on the shelf of everyone who has kids.

Still pretty good if you're a fan of the series, but I feel that this one is of a lesser quality compared to series 1-4. The jokes are a little more forced or seem a little too pre-meditated, and the programme does not have the freshness that it once did.

There were some moments when I laughed, but I spent most of my time apprehensive, wondering if the jokes will be as obvious as the build up suggested, and sometimes they are. The endings to each episode are getting a little more detached to the plot, ridiculous and less original (for example, Larry accuses a plastic surgeon of not being a genuine doctor and then reads in the paper that said doctor did help save a life...que end credits, hohoho...). Feels a bit 'clunky', as the actual argument Larry had seemed less consequential ... Read More:

I am a busy man and I will keep this brief.

Alcoholism is a very serious contagious disease, and I think the fact that shows like this 'Cheers' debacle even exist, and are happy to ridicule and make fun of this condition is a terrible slight on our 21st century culture. My dear old uncle Harry (God rest his bloated soul) was crippled and eventually succumbed to his love of Baileys, and if he was alive to witness this filth, he would turn in his grave and die all over again.

However, it achieves a bonus star simply for not being the disgraceful spin-off series 'Frasier', in which some doomed wretch decided it would be fine to make fun of the mentally ill. What's next? Is the next big American sitcom going to consist of a band of paraplegic mutes attempting to traverse ... Read More:

Loch Ness- no guessing what its about!
And yet, this is another film that I keep re-watching- there is a delightful sense of tongue in cheek about this, the story is of the classic myth- the ancient sea creature alive in Loch Ness- and yet it has an innocent charm that you just wish could be true.
I like this sort of film. Think lots of us do, if we could just be more truthful. A 4 star film- not quite excellent, but very good al;l the same.

This was where Cheers really took off. Season two saw the beginning of the Sam/Diane relationship which would continue to be on agian/off agian for the next 3 years and formed the basis for most of the plots. This season is full of so many great moments such as Diane trying to impress Dick Cavertt with her poetry. For me though a real classic moment was the pre credits sequence in the episode Battle of the Exes when Diane tries to book a romantic weekend at a little hotel by a lake hoping that Sam will come to think of it as 'Their' place only to be asked when she books a room for Malone if she is talkng about Sam Malone and does she want his usual room?
