I Want To Love the New Girl

It’s been a long time since I’ve followed a new television series. I think Lost was my last TV love. For the first time in a long time I decided I was going to pick a show from the fall lineup and give it a chance. Because of an On Demand clip that was showing while I was surfing for something interesting to watch, I decided to check out the pilot for New Girl, starring Zooey Deschanel. I saw her as a kind of kindred spirit. She’s a quirky adorable girl who has been hurt and needs to have some hope that life isn’t all cheating men and people that want to sleep with her.

A world where guys DON’T want to sleep with Zooey Deschanel? Yeah, that can only happen on television.

Deadliest Warrior Season Finale

For three seasons now, Spike TV has been pitting some of the greatest and most infamous characters throughout history against one another in mortal combat (no, not THAT "Mortal Kombat" ... though there are plenty of fatalities) in Deadliest Warrior. I'll admit, I've been a big fan of the series, and I'm constantly learning more about the history of combat, while being fascinated to see the weapons in action.  Still, I'm always left wondering how they could possibly outdo themselves.  Well, to wrap up Season 3, the Deadliest Warrior crew went out with a bang ... or rather a bite ... answering an age old fanboy question:

"Who would win in a fight between Vampires and Zombies?"
