  1. Criminal Intent is by far and away the greatest show on television now. I seriously like it better than the original and I've watched the original (and SVU) for years. Vincent D'Onofrio is a GOD in his Sherlock Holmes-esque role. I think his character Robert Goren is the best character on any current TV show. Seriously, I'd put him up against anyone.

    I agree that D'Onofrio is the best actor of all 3 L&O shows, but the rest of CI comes off weak. He basically is carrying that show himself which is both good and bad. Good because it fleshes out his character, but bad because the supporting cast seems shallow. That's why I picked SVU, each character of that show is built up equally, so the show can remove a character for ahow, or choose to revolve around someone else and it won't miss a step. PLus, outside of D'Onofrio, SVU has the best actors of the L&O shows.

  2. Unless this is another L&O which has nothing to do with the TV show at all, this topic belongs in the Movies and TV General Discussion.

    That's where it is... isn't it?

    Well, I messed up and started it in Banter, I guess I tend to think of the movie and tv section as mainly for comic book movies and tv.

  3. Like I said in the other thread, Dragonball GT: Final Bout for Playstation 1. I never liked Dragonball, ever. I hated the show, yet a friend of mine talked me into buying this game. The game itself was a horrible, shitty fighting game, but as luck would have it, it turned out to be one of the most rarest games in America. So I sold it on ebay and got over $400 for it.

    One thing that pisses me of is when people put a reserve on thier items and start the bidding far, far less then what the reserve is. I once bid an an auction that had Guilty Gear, Guilty Gear X, and Guilty Gear X2, and won it for about 50 dollars, however I did not meet his reserve. So I emailed him and told him I won, and asked him how much would he be willing to sell them for. It turns out that the fucker's reserve was set at 100 dollars. Fuck, then why start the bidding off at 10. Shit like that pisses me off. If your going to set your reserve so high, don't set your starting bid so low.

  4. You're on crack. King of the Hill is by far one of the funniest shows on the air. But because it doesn't have one gag after another (like current episodes of The Simpsons and Family Guy), actually deals with real subject matter, and treats its characters with continuity and respect, people trash talk it.

    And I would actually say the show is underrated.

    Thank you. King of the Hill has an amazing amount of continuity for a cartoon show, story arcs introduced in earlier episodes usually come up again later. I agree that this show is underrated, I feel alot of people where expecting another B&B, but instead what they got was an actual show, only animated, and that may have turned off some people.

  5. So I was thinking of getting a satellite radio for my car, and I was wondering if anyone here has had a satellite radio. I've heard XM before, and there were some good stations on it, but I've never heard any of the Sirius stations, so if someone here has heard them, I'd be much obliged to know if Sirius has good stations or not. So far I've been leaning towards XM.
