I was never too fond of watching tv series not until i started watching one. I somehow attempted with House awhile back but to no avail. And now, I finally decided to involved myself on this esp. if i got nothing else to do. The first tv series i followed was Vampire Diaries and I never really thought that I'll be enjoying this much as i slowly engrossed myself to it's interesting story. It's an American supernatural drama series which evolved to the love triangle of Elena(Nina Dobrev) Stefan(Paul Wesley) and Damon((Ian Somerhalder), all of whom have dark pasts. The characters were too good to be true and playing their roles amazingly effective. I must say that I envied Elena on this story that she was wooed by two handsome men with different personalities but expressing same level of affection towards her. These two are vampires obsessed to death with this alluring lady who even have deep secrets of her own. Next is Outsourced, it is an American television sitcom set in a call center in Mumbai, India, where an American novelty company has recently outsourced its order processing. A lone American (Ben Rappaport as Todd Dempsy)manages the call center and must explain American popular culture to his employees as he tries to understand Indian culture. This was the funniest tv series i've watched so far... i thought it's just a nonsense type but little did i know i find myself so interested in every episode and loving every odd gestures of the characters most especially Gupta( Parvesh Cheena)who mainly brought life to the story i should say. I'm looking forward to the next season if there's any. One of my favorite is Merlin, a British fantasy-adventure television programme by Julian Jones, Jake Michie, Julian Murphy and Johnny Capps which was influenced by the U.S. show Smallville, about the early years of Superman. Merlin per se is a legendary figure best known as the wizard featured in the Arthurian legend.Merlin's traditional biography casts him as a cambion: born of a mortal woman, sired by an incubus, the non-human wellspring from whom he inherits his supernatural powers and abilities. Merlin is a young wizard who arrives in the kingdom of Camelot after his mother arranges for him to stay with the court physician, Gaius. He discovers that the king, Uther Pendragon, has outlawed magic and imprisoned the last great dragon deep under the kingdom. In this story, he plays an important role: to protect Uther's son, Arthur, who will bring forth a great kingdom. And that where the story began... Here's the main cast Colin Morgan portrays Merlin,Bradley James as King Arthur Pendragon,Angel Coulby portrays Queen Guinevere "Gwen" Pendragon-love interest of Arthur,Katie McGrath portrays Morgana- i like her despite of her wickedness,Anthony Head portrays Uther Pendragon-King of Camelot who despised sorcery and Richard Wilson portrays Gaius-court physician and guardian of Merlin. I'm on my season finale now and can't wait to witness the ending. I also got addicted to Heroes, it is an American science fiction television drama series created by Tim Kring that appeared on NBC for four seasons from September 25, 2006 through February 8, 2010. The series tells the stories of ordinary people who discover superhuman abilities, and how these abilities take effect in the characters' lives. The series emulates the aesthetic style and storytelling of American comic books, using multi-episode story arcs that build upon a larger, more encompassing arc. In its first season, the show features an ensemble cast of twelve main characters making it the third largest cast in American primetime television. I really can't name all of them but my favorite is Hayden Panettiere who portrays high school cheerleader Claire Bennet who can spontaneously regenerate. I can't really imagine myself having supernatural powers... if ever, given the chance, i would like to be invisible and observe people esp my loved-ones, go to places i've never been to on my own and also do things secretly... haha that could be a funny experience!lol I'm still on my third season though and hoping to indulge myself soon if i have the luxury of staying on my bed or perhaps in the couch with nothing else to do but dvd marathon. I recently finished City Hunter, this intense, beautifully shot romantic thriller loosely based on a manga of the same name by Tsukasa Hojo, is a revenge drama done right. Lee Yoon Sung (Lee Min Ho played the main role), has but one mission in mind: to find and bring down the five men responsible for the murder of his father. To do so, he must hide his identity and fighting skills to infultrate the government. During his quest for revenge, however, he also enacts justice, and is given the nickname "City Hunter" by the populace, who knows only of a shadowy figure exposing corruption in their city. Torn between his surrogate father's drive for vengeance and the innocent girl he loves named Kim Nana(Park Min Young), Yoon Sung must fight to survive, and choose the path he will take. I shed alot of tears on this story but the ending was worth it coz' Nana and Yoon Sung still end up together. I'm trying to watch reruns of gossip girl and secret circle from ETC but only during my free hours... I realized that somehow if i love what i'm doing il be able to focus myself on it and finish it whatever it takes... this is now part of my hobby aside from DVD Marathon. i'll be looking forward for more series to enjoy with... perhaps next is Game of Thrones... :)
