In order to wind down from the day I like to watch TV. Each night this often includes television shows and movies from my Netflix account. So I thought I would share what I watch with you and how I feel about it and maybe this will lead you to a new show or movie that you enjoy.

Thank God for British Sci Fi
So I can't tell you how glad I am that the new season of Being Human started on BBC America. If you have never seen the show here is the basic gist: A vampire, werewolf, and ghost share a flat and try to deal with being monsters in the everyday world. What makes this show good is the British humor. So please do no be fooled by the Syfy channel's version. I normally live on the Syfy channel but in this case we are having a big issue. I'm not sure what happened but Syfy didn't get the British version and decided to adapt their own and change the character names. However, they follow the British script version word for word and I hate to break it to you but the British humor is not translating!!!!! And another thing is the American characters especially the vampire they are trying so hard to tap into the Twilight mania that is is ridiculous and it is driving me insane. So do me a favor if you are looking for a new Sci Fi show and you get BBC America watch the British one because the humor is the best thing about that show.
