From what I've seen in the pilot I'm cautiously optimistic. The plot is kinda like the reverse of Alcatraz, a group of terrorists in the future flee execution to the present day. The main character, a police officer inadvertently travels with them, and joins the local police force in order to try and stop them.Khazidheahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10833833078199356986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-228678769273144852.post-14230472475427065022012-05-28T02:02:41.483-07:002012-05-28T02:02:41.483-07:00I haven't used any before, but I had a quick l...I haven't used any before, but I had a quick look for options. Was this for a widget to be used in the sidebar? I found one widget that seems to do what you want image wise, but any descriptions you add will display on top of the image when you move your cursor over it, so there won't be much room for text. Other considerations, images above the specified size will be cropped, you can set the gallery to autoscroll, backward/forward arrows, or both, and the images can contain links if you wish.

We have enough of those offers, thanks. Since we don't know 99.9999999% of people on this site, it's very likely that there could be pervs. We'll think about it though, and thanks Khazidhea for the tool in case we end up deciding to implement a chat box. We looked in the blogger gadget store, and there really wasn't anything like it. <br /><br />What we really want is a widget that can help is do photo galleries like this: http://www.ew.com/ew/gallery/0,,20312226_20597404,00.html Where you can just click arrows and add text to the bottom and it will scroll along.

Those two are the only cartoons that I'm currently watching (not including anime) so I don't have much else current to compare it to, but I'd say it's probably one of the best superhero animated shows out there, largely due to its characters and the interactions between them. As a hardcore Batman fan I have a minor gripe about the Robin in season 1, but the creators explain away stuff like that with the setting being on an alternate earth, giving them free reign to use everyone's favourite characters in a consistent manner without needing to worry about continuity.Khazidheahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10833833078199356986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-228678769273144852.post-44874869182065687002012-05-26T00:52:43.462-07:002012-05-26T00:52:43.462-07:00I found it easier to watch Mad Men week to week. l...I found it easier to watch Mad Men week to week. lol Not an easy show to marathon compared to other cable shows such as Breaking Bad, The Wire, etc.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-228678769273144852.post-38248668835895507342012-05-26T00:45:07.880-07:002012-05-26T00:45:07.880-07:00Young Justice - awesome, pretty awesome, unbelieva...Young Justice - awesome, pretty awesome, unbelievably awesome, good, pretty good, very good?<br /><br />I want to catch up on some cartoons.

I'm a bit biased in favour of DC, though that's mostly due to access than any other consideration, with the only Marvel series of note that I've read is Runaways, which I picked up because Joss Whedon worked on some of it.Khazidheahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10833833078199356986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-228678769273144852.post-38901632792240545522012-05-25T23:34:07.577-07:002012-05-25T23:34:07.577-07:00Bunheads Premier

Nice scale, haha. <br /><br />Your point about The Glee Project is well taken. Ryan shouldn't be casting characters; he should be casting actors. <br /><br />Everwood and Dawson's Creek are good if you like that sort of soft teen show, Eli Stone is ambitious but forgettable, and Green Lantern (the movie) sucks.Ern and Leeardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02222918254913939721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-228678769273144852.post-87333459144175283532012-05-25T13:01:39.433-07:002012-05-25T13:01:39.433-07:00Bunheads and Longmire look pretty good.

Examples include 30 Rock and Happy Endings, two shows we like a little at a time. So Warehouse 13 will likely be better all at once.Ern and Leeardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02222918254913939721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-228678769273144852.post-30485145894191905552012-05-25T01:33:04.179-07:002012-05-25T01:33:04.179-07:00I'm planning on watching Teen Wolf, Pretty Lit...I'm planning on watching Teen Wolf, Pretty Little Liars, Suits, Episodes, White Collar, Warehouse 13, and Futurama. I'll probably check out Perception, and maybe Longmire.<br />So far season 2 of Episodes is pretty good. Glad to know that someone else enjoys it.<br />I like Warehouse 13, I feel that it has been pretty good these past couple of seasons, it has a good group dynamic. From memory I thought the first season took a while for me to be drawn in, and would only rate it as average. I don't know what it's like watching season 1 back to back, I watched it week to week, so it could be better/worse in a short run.Khazidheahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10833833078199356986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-228678769273144852.post-20933174750268967212012-05-24T17:47:14.431-07:002012-05-24T17:47:14.431-07:00You have a very varied taste in TV.
