Good TV shows
Californication
Excellent TV show, courtesy of "Showtime". David Duchovny is actually very funny and irreverent as a cynical writer trying to piece his life and family together. Really moving and really amusing at times, and both at the same time at it's very best. Quote: "Rehab is for quitters!"
30 Rock
Comedy show, behind the scenes of a comedy TV show. And while the TV show inside the show is like SNL (a type of humor I don't really get), 30 Rock is full of an intelligent, quirky sense of humor. Quote: "DId you know that the inner state schools have lower literacy rates than the Sudan? - That doesn't sound right. -Hm, maybe it was Sweden? Or was it teen pregnancy? (sighs) I need to read more."
Currently, good movies
Juno
Adorable film that will leave you all warm and fuzzy inside, but with enough bite and well written dialogue that it won't initiate your gag reflex. Ellen Paige as Juno is awesome and well deserving of the Oscar nomination. My biggest beef is that Micheal Cera and Jason Bateman (two of the stars of the awesome TV show "Arrested Development") while both in the film, have no common scene :(
WAZ
It starts off with Stellan Skarsgård trying to play a hardboiled cynical cop named "Eddie" (yes, it's about as unintentionally funny as it sounds), which lowered my expectations for the rest of the film. But then the plot and script crank it up a notch, Eddie becomes fleshed out, Selma Blair (black-haired girl in Cruel Intentions, Hellboy and In good company) has the best role of her carreer. Warning: some scenes make Seven look like a picknick and bring Saw to mind.
