Aside from anime, I've been also watching drama while I draw on the computer.

Dexter Season 1-4. At first I was really afraid of watching this show from the first 3 episode, cuz I hate gore/violence/killing....but the mystery and suspense of each episode kept me going thru each episode and before I realized it, I was already at Season 4. The last episode of Season 4 actually made me tear up ;o; Need to get the next boxset soon!

Hungry! Jdrama. The main guy who failed at debuting in his rock band, goes back home to work at his mom's little french restaurant, since he was trained pretty young in culinary. But she passes away and the restaurant is later taken over by this businessman, so he starts up his own french restaurant in this warehouse. I really like how straight forward they show the reality of starting a restaurant, even if his cooking is great, he needs to reach out to customer and need to make money to keep the store running. There's sorta a love triangle, but the main characters doesn't reciprocate to the other girl, even flat out stated he has no feeling for her (he even has his own girlfriend). It wasn't like that cringe worthy Ikemen Desu Ne love triangle. Chie and Taku moments were so cute. The food in the show looks so delicious~! Reminds me of a bit of Yakitate!Japan with how food can help lighten the mood. This was a pretty nice fun drama~

After watching South Park and Comedy Central Presents, I didn't have anything consistent to watch. I'm more into comedy right now. I'm on an anime break since I've watched enough last year haha. I watched some more J-drama. Finished Tokyo Dogs and Yankee-kun to Megane-chan. Started the manga, but got interrupted with school starting. I've been watching Scrubs Season 2-4 before going to bed. Almost done with 4! Still waiting on How I Met Your Mother season 5 to be cheap....

Anyways, sjen recommended what I should prioritize watching haha. So now I have decided to watch them in these order. I have to separate what I watch at work and at home :P

Work:
Pushing Daisies
Glee (sjen did not recommend haha)

Home:
Scrubs Season 4
Boston Legal Season 4+
Supernatural (before anime comes out!)
Firefly

(I'm holding off morbid/heavy drama until school semester is done haha. I don't want to be depressed.)

Dexter
House (my sisters been watching this nonstop + i bought all the dvd)
True Blood
Mad Men

WHAT?!!!!! Hmmmmmmmmmmmm but most of the series is composed of SD forms!! How are they going to pull it off. Bah...kinda fearful what they'll do to the series since I love the manga and anime.

Atleast continue the anime!! T^T;;;

Finished Season 1!! Overall enjoyable. A lot of the episodes felt familiar. Did a lot of anime referenced from Star Trek? Cuz I swear I've seen plotlines and characters somewhere... Now I can move onto Season 2! Now i see why sjen  said its better to watch them than shortcut my way around the series XD The character has really grown on me.

First it was Journeyman (which was prob my most favorite tv drama series!!) and now its My Own Worst Enemy getting hacked after a few episodes of airing?? I was just getting into the series!

I hate how they decide to cut off these drama that have the potential to engage audience's intelligence because ratings are much lower compared to no-brainers reality shows. I don't watch tv because of reality tv shows!!

Bah, NBC just sucks a lot.

There's only Heroes (which is not likely to have a new season b/c of its wtfness) and Conan O'brien to look forward to....but I just watch Conan online because its too late for me to stay up...

NBC SUCK!!!!!!

btw, I want my Journeyman DVD set!!! DX
