Tell us what your favourite shows are! Old ones, new ones and ones to watch out for.

My favourites at the moment are: Grey's Anatomy, Bones and Heroes (unmissable!).

Men in Trees, Lost and Prison Break. (Enjoyable but won't go into mourning if I miss them).

Avoid like the plague: American Chopper. Unfortunately, hubby and kids love it.

Okay: I've been watching the "new" version of Robin Hood. I've always been a sucker for this story. This version seems inspired by Lord of the Rings (complete with music). Not a bad thing, but I wish Orlando Bloom played Robin ...

Battlestar Galactica Season 2. We are waaaaaay behind in NZ. I went to buy the second season and then they started playing it on TV. I really like this reimagined version. Anyone else watch it?

I also love House, and Bones. I don't really watch much television at the moment, too many reruns. Saw an episode of Men in trees last night, quite funny.
And I happened to see the first episode of Ugly Betty as well, looks to be not too bad either.
They have just started a new series here of So you wanna be a popstar, kind of Idols sort of thing. I love watching the auditions, my god some people actually think they can SING!!! And get quite brassed off when they don't make it to the next round, LMAO.

Hey ... you I like already! ;D

We've got a mammoth movie collection too. It's like an addiction. We now have to get more shelves for the dvd collection.

In 1944 fascist Spain, a girl, fascinated with fairy-tales, is sent along with her pregnant mother to live with her new stepfather, a ruthless captain of the Spanish army. During the night, she meets a fairy who takes her to an old faun in the center of the labyrinth. He tells her she's a princess, but must prove her royalty by surviving three gruesome tasks.

More www.imdb.com/title/tt0457430/plotsummary

E-REVIEW - An amazing journey for the imagination. Pan's labyrinth has elements of Alice in wonderland, Dorothy in wizard of Oz- This movie is in spanish but has english subtitles.

The theme is very dark so not really suitable for small children, otherwise a movie that I will be adding to my personal collection.

Pan's Labyrinth

Rating 5

This is something I prepared for the YOP community - Enjoy

I like heaps of movies and what's my favourite quite often changes. I love Snatch, Blade Runner, LoTR trilogy, Star Wars, Terminator 3. I also love Pan's Labyrinth. My favourite Kiwi movie is Utu.

I like every single movie in our collection and can't wait to add more.
