Collected Thoughts

If you aren't reading Slacktivist you should be! It's a great blog -- Lefty Christian, interesting posts by the blogger Fred, he has a lot of interesting things to say. He's also disecting Left Behind page by page so you don't have to read it. He points out the really horrible theology and also why the crappy writing makes it an even crappier book.

But if you want even more reasons to watch he's a fan of Buffy, Veronica Mars, Bones, and Smallville. He has this to say about Veronica Mars

"We haven't seen this explicit a portrayal of high school as class warfare since John Hughes' Ringwald Cycle. "

and this about Smallville "My standing joke about Smallville is that I'm waiting to see which happens first: Clark learns to fly, or Tom learns to act. But still, let me defend my affection for the show by saying that I always liked the book(s). That and Michael Rosenbaum's multiplicitous, doomed Lex Luthor."

Here's his post about Television -- however there are SPOILERS for Battlestar Galatica, so if you haven't caught up with the current season DO NOT read them,http://slacktivist.typepad.com/slacktivist/2006/04/television.html#more
