Currently watching through the anime Hell Girl (Jigoku Shoujo) . It's an interesting challenge, watching a subtitled anime while cross stitching. lol. But it's such a pretty show, it makes me want to stitch something from it...

Also, watching through the newly subbed Sailor Moon as it's being released on Hulu. There are a lot of episodes in the first few seasons I never saw, so I'm glad to have the chance now without the ear rupturing dub voices. I'm really looking forward to the new Sailor Moon anime as well next month.

Anyone planning on watching the sequel series to Boy Meets World? It's about to start up soon, I'm going to give it a chance.

Oh, also, I always watch through some series with my aunt and right now it's Doctor Who. :) It took me a while to get her watching it, but after we finished Buffy and didn't know what to watch next I basically pitched DW as Buffy x Farscape, as those are two of our favorite shows it got her to give it a chance. I think she's into it, as she said when Nine Regenerated into Ten that she got chills, lol. Halfway into season 2 now, all I can think is "You though that gave you chills? You have no idea what's coming!"

Hell Girl is by far one of the most interesting animes I've ever watched.

My husband and I are rewatching Elfen Lied right now. Such a sad, gruesome anime. I am addicted to the song Lilium all over again -_- Other than that, I've been watching the old Mario Brothers cartoon with my son and realizing how truly terrible it was. I also just bought the old Legend of Zelda cartoon and had to stop watching it after the first, "Excuuuuuuse ME, Princess!" No. Just no.

We are planning on it. Hubby and I for nostalgia and the kiddo because she's addicted to BMW after I introduced her a few years ago. :)

Oooohhhh...so many chills to come!

Also, Ally...my problem with that is...I'm not really a fan in that way so him being shirtless doesn't do it for me. LOL!

Also...anyone happy that Whose Line Is It Anyway is back on T.V.? We watched the new episodes tonight and were laughing so hard through the entire two episodes. *does happy dance*

I liked Elfen Lied, but it was one of those that really stuck with me for ages. I still find myself thinking of it from time to time and getting all melancholy! And that LoZ cartoon is painful to watch, isn't it!
Honestly, MeiTow, after seeing the production stills of him sans shirt (as Murder in the First isn't on here in Oz and probably never will be) I might have to retract my statement! Which is odd, 'cause I think he's good looking in most other things... And is Whose Line back on? Epic!!!
I've joined the hoards and started watching Attack on Titan. I'm two episodes in right now and I'm loving it!

Oh, it's soooo bad! I mean...the Mario cartoon was bad enough, but it at least had some value.

GREAT anime. I was in a stunned silence at the end of the first episode! I had to binge watch it because it became this instant obsession for me.

I love love LOVE Whose Line. Sadly the bf hates it, so I watch it when he's out. I didn't know there were new episodes though - I'll be looking into it! I did try to watch the UK version, but it wasn't as good as the American one.

Whose Line is on Monday nights at 8 EST and, it would seem, also ruruns on Friday night at 8 EST. It's been on for about a year, I think, but I kept forgetting to watch it...which is fine because now that I finally remembered to set the DVR all the eps are new for me. :D Of course Drew isn't hosting anymore (Aisha Tyler is hosting) but the main three are back (Colin, Ryan, and Wayne). It has been so funny so far I started taking a drink during a skit last night and almost shot tea all over myself and the carpet while choking in the process from trying to cut off a laugh. :yahoo: :taunt: :tease: :clapping:

Watched Knights of Sidonia on Netflix. Basically, Earths gone or whatnot, people are in space, theres monsters, people fight them in space mechs. I thought it was pretty good. Plus one can choose to watch it in English or Japanese with subs. ;)
