  1. Next week trying out new shows:
    Dhani Tackles the Globe
    Battlestar Galactica – hmm I’m up to date on the series, is Capria a sequel?
    Modern Toss
    Better Off Ted – Oh no a conflict with Lie to Me and Damages
    Head Case – Starz – maybe a pay channel, but watching this episode on Direct TV Channel??
    Party Down – Starz
    And I’ll give Nora Roberts a watch

  2. @iJames – Caprica is in fact a prequel to BStarG, they did a movie pilot that if you missed should be released in April on dvd, not sure what the status of the rest of the series is… I think Damages airs at additional times if you want to swap the time slot to check out Ted… and not to dis Nora but I’m not sure her made for tv movies are up your alley :)

  3. Direct TV last night offered a preview of Head Case and Party Down.

    Both appear to be outstanding half hour comedies. No need to watch another episode to make up ones mind – they were excellent. And both 1st episodes are now available for viewing full episodes on Starz.com

    Still wondering if Direct TV will include Starz or whether it will be another pay channel.

  4. @iJames: with a review like that i checked them out online… and while Head Case was good it was maybe a little too, well, Larry David painful for me, but I thought Party Down had some funny and loved to see some of the old Veronica Mars kids back on screen… I wonder if they’ll continue to have them online.
