Mostly a placeholder until I feel like making something more of it. (Aside: geez, my name looks dumb as a wiki word. Maybe I should've just gone with "Doogie.")
My name is Doogie. I'm Canadian. I write a
hockey blog
, I work in a research lab, I study kinesiology, and I suspect at this point I watch more
British TV than Canadian or American; I know I enjoy more.
My favourite
Doctor is
Christopher Eccleston, though
David Tennant has finally grown on me (though not for lack of effort on the part of a certain showrunner...you think you're really clever with that
Space Jesus shit in
Voyage of the Damned, don't you, Davies?) And I was extremely saddened by Donna's
Victory Induced Amnesia turning her back into an unlikable bint almost immediately after her
Crowning Moment of Awesome.
Current TV roster:
Retired TV roster (incomplete):
- The Adventures of Brisco County, Jr. - So much potential wasted. Bruce Campbell in a steampunk western Affectionate Parody...with Aliens. How did it turn out so mediocre?
- Alias - That Super Bowl episode was awesome. And then in season three it got really fucked up, and then it got worse from there.
- Andromeda - This is what happens when you give the lead actor creative control.
- Big Brother - Too many unrepentant douchebags for my liking.
- Charmed - I was 13, I can be forgiven. Also, the series ended after three or four years. Just saying.
- Corner Gas
- Criminal Minds - Squick
- CSI: Miami - David Caruso; tried again recently, got distracted by how bloody shiney it was. Spelling intentional.
- Diagnosis: Murder - One of the first shows I watched with my parents.
- Ghost Hunters - The gimmick's worn off on me.
- I'm a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here! - I'm not proud of it.
- Jake 2.0 - So obscure it doesn't even have a TV Tropes page, apparently.
- Jeeves and Wooster - Mom got me into this. Before he was Dr. Jerk, he was the consummate Upper Class Twit. Got bored of it in season two when they started doing the same story about some annoying secondary character every week.
- Jericho - They lost a lot of people with the Cerebus Syndrome-esque turn for the dramatic halfway through season one. Was awesome later but everyone stopped giving a shit long before then.
- The Joe Schmo Show
- John Doe
- Martial Law - Went all weird.
- The Mentalist - Thoroughly unlikeable jackass.
- The Mole - ABC keeps jerking this one around, but it really is a fun little distraction.
- Monk - Too much squirming
- Murder In Small Town X - Cool concept; too bad it never got a second season.
- Now And Again
- NUMB3RS - Too much Writer on Board, thanks
- Quantum Leap - When Scott Bakula could act
- Stargate SG-1 - Never got into it; too much syndication, I guess.
- Stargate Atlantis
- Star Trek - Various series; gave up on Enterprise after the Time War nonsense started.
- The Amazing Race - Too many format changes.
- The Last Detective - Peter Davison assumes it's cancelled, and who am I to argue with Tristan and The Doctor?
- The Others - Great premise, inconsistent execution.
- The Pretender - Quite liked this one, actually.
- Without a Trace - Too much soap opera.
