The Season Finale Thread!

innerSpaceman · 05-24-2007, 08:20 AM

For someone who used to have the TV on whenever I was home, I am so pleased I seem to be a successful recovering television addict ... free of the habit for nearly five years!

There was a period when my tv was broke, and I simply quit. I stopped picking up new shows, and just watched my current ones till they either went off the air or jumped the shark.

I still catch up on good shows by renting the DVDs. From this season, I'm likely to rent Heroes. I'm really glad that Weeds got picked up. I'll probably check out the 3rd season of Lost, even though it may shark jump right there.

But I'm down to one show that is still on the air that I've watched from the "old days." And it's going off the air in two weeks. The Sopranos dates from the time when I watched TV regularly, and its highly anticipated series finale means not only an end to one of the best shows of all time, but the end of a lifetime of regular series viewing by me.

Quite a milestone. I'll miss The Sopranos, but I revel in my new life of not being glued to the set.

Who am I kidding? I'm watching some Netflix disc or another most nights.

Same here. 3 Netflix waiting for me at home in case I'm bored over the long weekend (not). Commercial TV I watch almost none, Project Runway was my last regular must watch thing, and I see that is coming back. I loved Rome on HBO, but The Sopranos I saw season 1, then I moved to VA and did not have HBO, now I'm back and watching the end of the series, which is kinda weird.

I loved the first Law & Order: CI finale, the one with the A team of Goren/Eames. I hope the writers carry over Goren's reaction into next season.

I sort of half watched the SVU finale, but I also taped it, so I am going to go back and watch again. Looks like a lot of shakeups among the team!
