ReGenesis: In the Third Beginning, there was an Explosion

By the Encaffeinated ONE, on April 2nd, 2007%

It’s really funny: I often insist that I don’t watch much TV. Especially since I got into podcasts, most of my spare time is taken up with them. I have about 300 podcasts in my lineup, although likely I’ll only listen to about 50 in the regular course of the week. Others, like the JapanesePod101 and LearnChinesePod are waiting for that block of “free time” I’ve heard others talk about. iTunes tells me that I have 3530 unheard podcasts, but I think it’s lying to me.

Anyway, what was I talking about? Oh yeah, TV… So, this season regulars that I’m paying attention to include Heroes (of course!), Smallville, Bones, Doctor Who, and Jericho; I’m recording Lost, Supernatural and The Dresden Files for this summer’s view. I typically watch Doctor Who at a friend’s place (where they have a much bigger HDTV) and tonight, another great show just returned to finally get back to it’s third season: ReGenesis.

I’m very proud to say that ReGenesis is a Canadian TV production, mostly because it is very, very good. It’s got style, but it’s got lots of substance. It’s got grit, it’s cutting edge science, . . . → Read More: ReGenesis: In the Third Beginning, there was an Explosion

I made my vocal debut as of this last episode — number 13 — but I have yet to really fully participate. I hope to have fun doing this for the entire run of the show.

About Heroes: this show debuted this fall, and follows the story of several people who have manifested some sort of unusual power, from the ability to fly to the ability to control all of time and space (well, almost). The story is drawing these people together, and we are slowly seeing who will be a Hero — and who will be a Villian. My favourite way of describing it is as a comic book where you don’t yet know the origin story — because it is still playing out — and the universe is a blank slate without weighted down backhistory that only long-time comic book addicts would know.

And so far, I’m pretty much loving every episode. I plan . . . → Read More: The Encaffeinated Hero?
