Starbuck’s gonna kill us all.

Filed under: TV — Ryan @ 8:41 pm

The Bionic Woman has to be the best action/drama/sci-fi since Battlestar. Not as good as but quite girl-firendly (people missing the TV version of Buffy [aka seasons 1-7] will love this ass-kicking-girl show) and staring 3 Battlestar actors (The Chief, Starbuck [as the failed/evil Bionic woman] and Baltar’s irish Lawyer).

As with SCC (Sarah Connor Chronicles) for a FOX this is unbelievable and a possible rival for Heroes.

Don’t let the glossy promo images fool you this show has bite and Lucy Hale is great as the soulful but tough Bionic Woman. In fact the acting is quite high over all.

So the shows to look out for in the coming months are;
Sarah Connor Chronicles
Bionic Woman
Darkside
Journeyman

I will have no mercy for those not watching these as well as the second-last season of LOST, the last season of Battlestar, the forth season of Atlantis and the second chapter of Heroes.

Skynet is Coming

Finally got to watch the first episode of The Sarah Connor Chronicles (it was a leaked preair). Everyone must watch it when it starts.

Set over a year after Judgement Day, it fills in the gaps about what happen to Sarah and John Conner before T3. The f/x are top notch and the writting and directing are exceptional for a FOX series. Your life isn’t worth living if you haven’t seen “Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles”, so spread the word.

Also going to get around to watching “The Bionic Woman” later.

PS Watch out for Summer Glau playing a teenager, again!

Go Go Power Rangers!

Filed under: TV — Ryan @ 11:08 am

As if it wasn’t bad enough that I was watching the new Transformers movie last night, which is awesome by the way and everyone must see it, but I’ve just discovered that German media group have released a 6-disk box-set of the first season of Power Rangers.

Needless to say I didn’t waste any time going to amazon.de and ordering my copy. If you too want to be as sad as me well click here http://www.amazon.de/Mighty-Morphin-Power-Rangers-Classixx/dp/B000O59Z6G

It does also have the English soundtrack.

Master Who

I knew it, I knew, I knew it!!! The moment the Face of Boe said it I knew it. The Daleks, the Cybermen and who was missing. But he should be dust. What the hell happened? Was there a trial? Was he alive for the war? How does he even have any lives left??? This is great, really it doesn’t get any better than this.

There was a time when I was sacred that it would be the Monk rather then him they’d bring back. This is sooo cool!!!

My First Real Blog Post

Filed under: Computers & Internet, Personal, TV — Ryan @ 11:28 pm

First of welcome everyone to my blog. [If you're reading this on RyanGannon.com then understand the site is under construction, if you're reading this on LJ then feel free to leave flippant comments as I have on yours and if you're reading this on blogger then I probably don't know you.] So anyway this is going to be yesterday and today summed up.

My first proper hacking of Vista
Right so yesterday, yesterday I had my last exam, E-Business. I had already passed the course so doing the exam was a formality really. The fun started when afterwards I got a bluetooth headset in Argos (€20) and tried to add it to my bluetooth devices on Nike (my portable/college laptop). Now both of my laptops have Windows Vista Ultimate (RTM) and as you may or may not know, because I didn’t, between the RC2 release and the RTM Microsoft striped their bluetooth stack down to just File Transfer. So I was peeved as this was the reason for buying the headset. So why not just use XP I hear you ask (and by you I mean Aoife and maybe Cheryl) well I wanted the headset for Vista’s Speech Recognition software (yes, I’m that lazy). So after much hunting on Google I came across this. So that’s the way I spent yesterday evening.

Big Brother
BIG BROTHER!!! Yes it’s back. I don’t have to think about what I’m going to do every night. But what the hell is up with only adding one guy? 11 girls, locked in a house, the majority between 18 and 22, it’ll end in homicide. All the same I’m glad it’s back and it looks to be a good year all the same and Nicky seems nice, I hope she is and doesn’t turn out to be a bitch. The twins are so cute! They’re all blonde and pink and rather thick. Bless.
The best thing is we had a Big Brother party. So… much… Dominos. The brownies are so good though.
