The Official DF Galaxy Nexus Pre-Release Thread

[prowler85]

I started watching Castle strictly because I liked Nathan Fillion in Firefly and heard it was similar the style of sarcastic humor (which it is). The down side is that it is another crime/mystery show and is similar to the CSIs, Bones, NCIS (freaking love this), ect where the show has its own formula and follows it pretty close from week to week... still keeps me interested though.

Edit: Freakin Fringe..... top 3 for me... amazed at how they have managed to keep me hooked in... thought they would write themselves into a corner long ago. Then I thought they were going to piss me off by changing the time line, but with the most recent twist, I... I don't even know what to think

Oh, and can't wait for Game of Thrones to come back around!!

That's more or less what I thought, but I too loved Nathan Fillion in Firefly, so if it's the same dry humor it sounds like it's for me.

And you pretty much nailed Fringe.....danged show keeps changing tacks, and just when you think they've written themselves into a corner, there's a whole new thing. This season was totally off from previous shows.....can't wait for it to come back in Feb!!!

I also love Eureka.....sci-nerdy with a good dose of humor. Just heard last night that next season is the last. Sad, but at least there'll be whatever wrap-up they need. Hate it when a show just ends!!! grrr....

I don't think this has been posted yet, but saw it over in a comment on droid-life... It's a link to a website to check if the VZW Galaxy Nexus has been released yet!

Does anyone know if netflix charges seperate for watching movies over devices and tv, or is it $8 a month unlimited use from any and all devices? My wife and I are thinking of getting it. Do you recommend it? Do I need a external hard drive to store movies and shows?

You can link up to 5 devices I think, but only one at a time watching it. Kind of sucks. thinking of getting another streaming account just because we seem to be hitting the one at a time quite a bit, and just got my kids the Kindle Fire for Christmas, so expect it to happen a bunch more.

It's amazing how many shows people have listed that I watch(ed) regularly... I watch way to much TV... loved Smallville, still watch storage wars (Dave and Darrell are REALLY starting to get on my nerves) and Gold Rush (my only complaint is how slowly the draw it out and how everything came out about it being scripted last year with the one guy getting kicked off the show).

So did Smallville "end"? Started watching Kyle XY, and after it ABRUPTLY ended after season 3 in the middle of a huge cliffhanger, I refuse to watch another multi-year series unless the danged things ends appropriately.

And as much off-topic as all this stuff is, I'm gleaning some very valuable information. So far I have one drink to try (Crown and red bull) and lots of shows to watch.....awesome stuff!! :icon_ lala:

Meh, I tried searching the thread for it, but it kept saying that the search term was too long, so i tried searching for a piece of it and nothing came up so I thought maybe it hasn't been! lol

 

[prowler85]

Because I'm bored, this is pretty much everything I watch regularly or somewhat regularly (in no particular order):

Ok, you do watch too much tv.

Than again, if I took the time to list it, it's probably about 3/4 as long as yours (seeing as how everything I am watching/have watched is pretty much on your list). So I guess I'm not one to talk.

Even though I just did.

Not quite cancelling it. They're still filming episodes, and they will eventually be seen (probably in the summer, or after a show is cancelled in the spring). It may be renewed for one more season so it can get 100 episodes and syndication.

Yes, they ended it appropriately. From my understanding, the show did get cut early, but then Tom Welling (theguy who plays Clark in the show) bought the rights or maybe just took over so that they could have a last 2 seasons and ended it properly.

Oh and one I don't think was on the list was Scrubs.... freaking loved that show too... one of the few shows that I actually got misty eyed during the finale

yeah, should have said putting 1 and a half feet in the grave. Give it to another network if they need to. The only reason it isn't doing too well this season is because CBS moved Big Bang Theory to Thursday nights.

My final thought for the night - If the 15th comes & goes without so much as a peep from Vzw, I don't know what the heck-a-rello I'm gonna do?!? I may just have to "Rage Against The Machine"!!!

 

[combatmedic870]

Ive called my verizon store once an hour today(asked if they have released the nexus yet). Just because I felt like it.....they ask me to stop calling and told me they would call me when its released. I told them its rumored that I would stop with this phone call. Then I called an hour later and asked if it was released yet.

EDIT: just called them again and they told me they pulled one out for me to come and play with if i stop calling! LOL
