Nice weekend overall

I had a nice weekend overall. The bad news was that my brother hurt his back badly on Friday evening, and so was either visiting a medical specialist or was laid up.

The side effect of the above was that we spent a lot of time in front of the television. We watched The Terminator, T 2, and T 3 in order. Then I re-watched the first episode of Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles.

I was impressed with the series before, but am more so now. Its consistency with the movies is incredible; the writers really do their homework. While the third movie was in ways disappointing, I'm also impressed with the series as a whole, movies included; it's really terrific science fiction. It's much deeper than I remember. Very good stuff.

I also watched the first new episode of Moonlight last night. While the pace of episode seemed a bit rushed, it's really good to have the show back. I hope it's doing all right.

Oh, and it's so nice to have Bones back too. I'm feeling inundated with good television right now.

So, about the weekend, it was a huge bummer that my brother is in such pain, but it was so cool to hang out with him and watch a bunch of TV; he really enjoyed it too. That's why it was such a nice weekend, all things considered.
