It's been too long...

Nearly a year, in fact. I do have an excuse, admittedly. I chatted on here a little bit before about Operation: Sleeper Cell. That's where most of my energy from last year went into, and this blog suffered a bit as a result. Well, a lot. But O:SC is history, now, so I thought I might as well post back here a bit more. Hope you'll not mind.

So. Much has happened in the media this past year. TV, Radio, Film, Games, everything has moved on quite a bit. I'm not going to talk about them all. I don't want to be sat here all night, after all. I'll chat about a couple of things that I've been digging (not necessarily Digg-ing, though) these past few of days/weeks. 

TV! As usual, British TV has been teh shit recently. Actually, that's probably a touch unfair. Hustle's pretty good. Sorry Hustle. And QI. Sorry Stephen Fry. Everything else, though, is terrible. I'm not even generalising, I mean literally everything. So instead I've been getting even more into my American dramas, which seem to have given a dose of the awesomes this season. The new season of 24 is looking like the kick in the backside that the show needs, Lost is...Lost, Battlestar Galactica is getting more twisty-turny, Supernatural is shaping up well and I could go on and on but I'm not going to. 

Radio! That Jonathan Ross, eh? What a bloke ;-)

Film! Some crackers out recently. Even the films that should by rights be awful, like Role Models, have turned out pretty well. I desperately want to see Slumdog Millionaire, but can't get anyone to go with me. And Benjamin Button looks pretty good too, but I think there's still a couple more weeks before that arrives. Oh! And I missed out on writing about The Dark Knight last year, which I, like most everyone else, it seems, was completely obsessed with for a couple of weeks. New Star Trek film out soon too, with Sylar starring as Spock. So that could be quite good.

Games! Last year was a great time for games. I'm still playing through most of the games released at the tail end of last year. Everyone seemed to love Fallout 3, but I didn't really enjoy it as much as I thought I might've. LittleBigPlanet is absolutely fabutanlistic (woo for neologisms!). I haven't stopped playing Rock Band (+2) since it came out. Banjo Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts showed that Rare have still got it. Mirror's Edge wasn't as good as it should've been. And then there was GTA IV, which a lot of people seem to be having second thoughts about, but I still thought was great. And for people lamenting the lack of 'fun' in IV, there's always Saints Row 2, which is hilarious, both in- and un-intentionally. No, I messed that up, didn't I. in-intentionally...you know what I mean.

There are of course plenty of other things. There's always other things. I didn't mention any books because I've barely read any 'new' books. Seriously, the last book I read was Dracula, that's how far behind the times I am! I might bring up the odd one now and then, though. Likewise I haven't mentioned the Internet. There's thousands of sites I could have talked about, but haven't. There's just too many. Again, I will try and keep more up to date in future from now on.

So! That's it for now. I shall write back soon. Promise! If not then I'll...eat my own elbow. Or something. Yup.
