  My Canada Day + Dexter | Top 5 Edgemont + Top 5 Falcon Beach

  If you didn't read my last blog, then Happy Be-Lated Canada Day! But I think all my friends on tv.com who are Canadian already read my last blog.

  

  I was able to finally finish watching Dead Like Me. I watched the last 3 episodes and the movie. "Last Call" was a very funny episode with Mason thinking he was going to die. "Always" was an interesting episode because it gave a little more detail of Rube's life. "Haunted" was a very funny episode but a little creepy. The movie, Dead Like Me: Life After Death was a good movie. It wasn't as good or funny as the show but it was enjoyable. I didn't like that there was no Rube, and Daisy was replaced with another actress. I also didn't like any part with Cameron. But everything else was awesome!

  I'm almost finised BH: 90210. I only have the last episode to watch. I liked the Senior Ditch Day episode where Donna was getting mugged and then she pratically kicked that guys a$$.

  So I've been giving Dexter a little bit of a chance. I watched 2 more episodes of Dexter this week. I can't handle watching the credits. I don't think I'll be able to watch the whole show because there's blood and I'm not good with watching or thinking about blood. The show is very interesting though with the charatcers, and I think I'm going to keep watching it.

  I watched The Secret Life of the American Teenager on Monday. It wasn't as good as the season premiere episode but I still enjoyed it. I am just hoping Grace doesn't stay in her bedroom for the rest of the season. I'm hoping Ben and Amy break up this season, but it probably won't happen. The funniest scene was when Grace's mom starts laughing because Anne is pregnant.

  On Wednesday was Canada Day. I was going to go to the beach, and watch fireworks, but it rained all day. I didn't get to go to the beach and I didn't get to have a bbq. In the afternoon, it stopped raining and the sun came out, but then it started raining again. The fireworks got cancelled.

  Here are my Top 5 Favourite Edgemont Characters. Everything is pretty vague, but it's because I haven't seen the show in awhile.

  I know no one really watches these shows because they are Canadian. So if you want you can tell me which character you think is the most interesting for boths shows.... or you can tell me which character looks the hottest, or prettiest for both shows.

  Here's the THEME SONG: I think it's called "Start Again" by Annette Ducharme.

  What is Edgemont About?

  Edgemont is a Canadian drama about high school teens. It starts off mostly about a guy named Mark who is going out with his best friend Jen, but then this new girl Laurel comes to town and he breaks up with Jen and starts dating Laurel. Then there's mini drama with Anika being a super b!tch with spreading gossip, Erin who desperately wants to be popular, Chris who is a big jerk and turns out to be sweet, and Craig who has a thing for protesting.

  What Genre Is it?

  It's a drama.

  How Many Seasons does it have?

  It has 5 seasons. Each season has about 13 episodes and I think season 4 has 18 episodes.

  How many episodes does it have?

  There are 70 episodes.

  What are the years it lasted from?

  It lasted from 2000-2005.

  My Top 5 Favourite Edgemont Characters

  1. Shannon

  

  Shannon is my favourite character in Edgemont. She is another one of those characters that has something about her that I like. I love her storyline with her being a lesbian and it interferring with her religion. I like how she's a straightforward type of person, and she always speaks her mind.

  2. Laurel

  

  Laurel is my second favourite character. I like the way she talks. Now that I remember, her character really didn't have all that much drama. Although, I don't like her relationship with Mark, I love her personality. She's very artsy, she becomes a model, and she moves in with this girl named Maggie.

  3. Scott

  

  Scott is my third favourite character. He's another character that's there's just something about him that I like. I found his character humourous for some reason. He decided to become a Druid to impress this girl named Brenda. He's only in season 1 because the actor died in a car accident, but he still one of my favourites.

  4. Jen

  

  Jen is my fourth favourite character. There's a lot of drama with her character. I love the pregnancy she went through, and not like many teen dramas, she actually had a miscarriage. Then, she became crazy for a little while or maybe it was just 1 episode. I don't know, but anyways that's my main reason for her being one of my favourites because she goes crazy.

  5. Kat

  

  Kat is my fifth favourite character. I like her saracasticness. I think she gets kicked out of school or something, and she gets homeschooled and her character gets really depressing until she starts crushing on this guy named Craig.

  

  Here's the THEME SONG: It's called "Beautiful Blue" by Holly McNarland.

  What is Falcon Beach About?

  Falcon Beach is another Canadian drama. It's about a bunch of teenagers or I guess adults since they are 18. It's mostly about a guy named Jason and he is a wake boarder, and in the first season I think he gets into wakeboarding accident and he hurts his leg or something. In season 2 he tries to save Falcon Beach from turning into a resort. Then there's Paige and she's stuck up, and she works with her father. Her father is trying to turn Falcon Beach into a resort. Lane is Paige's brother, and he is a drug dealer. Then there's Tanya who has a drug Addiction. Erin is the lifeguard, and Danny's in love with her.

  What Genre Is it?

  It is a drama.

  How Many Seasons does it have?

  It has 2 seasons.

  How many episodes does it have?

  There are 26 episodes.

  What are the years it lasted from?

  It lasted from 2006-2007.

  My Top 5 Favourite Falcon Beach Characters

  1. Erin

  

  Erin is my favourite character on Falcon Beach. Again, there's just something about this character that I like. I also love all the drama she goes through. She's a lifeguarad at the beach, and this one kid drowns, and she feels so bad for the kid because she didn't save him. Then, she got pregnant, and her baby was born dead. After that, she was obsessed with baby dolls, and I think she left to go get help with it. I also like her relationship with Danny.

  2. Tanya

  

  Tanya is my second favourite character. I love the drama with her drug addiction. She used to be a model, and then she got caught with marijauana, and went to court. I didn't care for her relationship with Jason, but I did like her relationship with Lane. The actress also reminds me of Jessica Biel who played Mary on 7th Heaven.

  3. Ginny

  

  Ginny is my third favourite character. She is the mother of Lane and Paige Bradshaw. She reminds me of Joyce from Buffy the Vampire Slayer. I like the drama of her divorcing her husband (I hate him).

  4. Danny

  

  Danny is my fourth favourite character. Though, I really HATED his character on Degrassi, I LOVED his character on Falcon Beach. I love his drama with him going out with Erin, getting her pregnant, the baby being born dead. In Season 2, his character goes darker, and he tries to stop construction of this resort they are putting up that will replace Falcon Beach.

  5. Courtney

  

  Courtney is my fifth favourite character. She's not really a main character, but I like her more than Jason, Paige, and Lane. She's one of favourites because she's kind of wild.

  My Next blog will be my Top 5 Favourite Firefly Characters.

  DLM + Degrassi + Dr. Horrible's Blog with Amber Benson and Canada Day!

  I resumed watching Dead Like Me with my sister. We watched "Ashes to Ashes" and "Forget Me Not". Both episodes were hilarious. I only have 3 more episodes to go until I'm finished season 2

  I'm almost finished watching Beverly Hills: 90210 season 3. I think I have about 5 episodes left to watch. I watched the episode where Dylan's dad died. The episode was great! Then I watched the episode where Brandon's gambling problem is basically confirmed. So I was right about him having a gambling problem. I did predict that Kelly was going to have an eating disorder. I didn't mention it in my last blog because I changed my mind about it. But I was right that she was going to get an eating disorder.

  Here is some news on Degrass! Degrassi Goes to Hollywood won't be airing in September anymore. According to the ctv.ca website, which is most reliable source for any news about Degrassi IMO, the movie will be airing August 30th. I can't wait to watch it! I think it's all about the original cast.

  I started reading again. I'm reading Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Book of Fours by Nancy Holder. I love her fan-fiction. I've only read 3 chapters and it's very interesting. It's a little hard to follow but I'm enoying it so far.

  I got my computer fixed! I had several viruses on my computer, so I've been using my sister's laptop for the last 2 weeks. Thank goodness she left it here when she went tree planting.

  On Thursday, I also watched the pilot of Dexter. I'm sure if I'm going to keep watching the show. It's different. I'm not really in the mood to be watching more episodes.

  This weekend I watched all three Poltergeist movies. I forgot how good those movies were. My favourite will always be the first one.

  On Saturday, my family had an yardsale. It was a small yardsale though. We made just over $130. My parents want to have another yardsale later in the summer.

  On Sunday there was a meeting about the basketball camp. I'm not going to be a councellor for basketball camp anymore. They need more volunteers for this Night Camp. I'll be a coucellor and helping kids with arts and crafts, and there will be games I'll be showing kids how to play.

  Amber Benson is AWESOME! She was at this comic book thingy or whatever and she was talking about her new book, and she was also talking about Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

  Part 3: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bDv0YgQvRLk&feature=channel_page

  

  My Top Dr. Horrible Sing Along Blog Characters

  1. Dr. Horrible

  

  Dr. Horrible/Billy is my favourite character. I find him to be the funniest character with him trying to be evil, but he's not really all that evil. My favourite song he sings is either "Brand New Day" or "A Man's Gotta Do".

  Favourite Line: "Balls"

  2. Captain Hammer

  

  Captain Hammer is my second favourite character because he has such a huge ego which makes him funny. My favourite scene with him is when he pushes Penny into the garbage to save her life. My favourite song he sings is "A Man's Gotta Do".

  Favourite Line: "The hammer is my penis"

  3. Penny

  

  I love Felicia Day, so Penny is my third favourite character. I always felt so sorry for her. My favourite scene with her is when Captain Hammer is making this big speech and she slips out of the room. I can't decide which song that I like her singing. I think "Penny's Song" is my favourite of hers.

  Favourite Line: "Billy, You're driving the spork into your leg."

  Favourite Song: "A Man's Gotta Do" is my favourite song of Dr. Horrible's Sing Along Blog. I find it to be more catchy than the other songs and I love the intro of Captain Hammer in that song.

  Favourite Act:

  Act 2

  Act 2 is my favourite because Captain Hammer says "the hammer is my penis and there are 3 songs that I really like in that act which are "My Eyes", "Penny's Song", and "Brand New Day".

  Act 1

  Act 1 is my second favourite because it has my favourite song in it and Neil says one of my favourite lines.

  Act 3

  Act 3 is my third favourite. It's only third because I didn't enjoy the songs as much as Act 2 and Act 1, and I didn't like that Penny died.

  NEXT BLOG will be an EDGEMONT/ FALCON BEACH blog. I know these are Canadian shows which I don't think any of you have watched, but maybe it will get some of you interested. I don't even know if Edgemont is on televison anymore. Falcon Beach might be on television but I'm not sure. You might be able to find episodes online somewhere.

  I know it's not July 1st yet, but I probably won't blog on Canada Day.

  HAPPY EARLY CANADA DAY to my fellow Canadians!!!!!

  Summer Plans + 2 Spikes + Credit to Daria | Top 5 Favourite Dollhouse Characters

  Summer has been alright so far. I still haven't made a lot of plans but I made some.

  Credit to Daria ( 12678 ) for my banner. I used the icons that she made to make my banner.

  BTW, Amanda(dool_girl) and Candace(candaceee23), I know you were looking forward to reading my Degrassi blog. So feel free to comment on it.

  My Summer To Do List:

  - Get a job I actually like (the job I had during the school year sucked)

  - Get all my Volunteer Hours finished ('m going to be a councellor for this basketball camp)

  - Visit my Cousin this summer (We haven't seen each other in awhile so it would be nice to catch up)

  - Finish Watching BH: 90210 Season 3

  - Buy BH: 90210 Season 4

  -Finish Dead Like Me Season 2 and watch the movie

  I KNOW 2 SPIKES

  

  Spike from Buffy the Vampire Slayer. I don't even remember why he's called Spike. I think it had to do with something about being at railroad.
  

  

  

  Spike from Degrassi Junior High/ Degrassi High/ Degrassi: The Next Generation. Her nickname is Spike because of her spikey hair.

  I also know a Spike from Passions but I don't really remember him too much.

  So Last Sunday we had a Father's Day barbeque. A whole bunch of my relatives came over. We have a huge family. I don't remember what happened but I had fun.

  On Monday Season 2 of the Secret Life of the American Teenager premiere. I had to watch it online because I'm not waiting for it to air in Canada. The acting is so much better and the writing is so much better. I knew Marshall was going to die. I can't wait to see what Grace will be like in this season.

  I watched a BH: 90210 episode and Seth Green guest starred in the episode. He was so young. I think he might have been 14 or 15 years old. Anyways I know that he didn't actually go to the school in the episode, but I find it ironic that he goes to the same school on Buffy that Brenda, Brandon, Kellie, and all them went to in BH:90210.

  I'm over halfway through season 3 of BH: 90210. I think I only have 10-13 more episodes to watch. Season 3 is a really long season. I think it has about 30 episodes. Anyways I'm predicting that Brandon is going to have a gambling problem.

  Today, My sister came back from tree planting. We were going to hang out today because she's decided she wants to go to Toronto and visit some of her friends. We were planning on going to library because they are selling a bunch of books and movies, then we were going to go to the beach. We get into her car and her car breaks down. So now she has to get it fix.

  I LOVE DOLLHOUSE! I think I'm may be the only one who actually liked the first 5 episodes. Well besides "True Believer". I didn't like that episode. I didn't like the beginning of "Stage Fright" but I loved it's ending. I loved every episode of Dollhouse besides "True Believer" and the beginning of "Stage Fright".

  

  

  My Top 5 Favourite Dollhouse Characters

  1. Dr. Saunders/Whiskey

  

  

  Dr. Saunders/Whiskey is my favourite character. I think I'm a little biased because Amy Acker is one of my favourite actresses. I love seeing her in every episode she's in. I was so surprised to learn that she was an Active. I totally did not see that coming.

  2. Echo

  

  Echo is my second favourite character. I like how her character evolves into the smartest active at the Dollhouse. I did like some of the personalities she was imprinted with. I liked her character in "The Target". In Gray Hour I liked how her memory is wiped by that phone. In "Man on the Street" her character was hilarious saying "it's porn". I liked the people she was imprinted with in "Haunted" and in "Briar Rose". I also love her as an airhead, all childlike.

  Favourite Lines:

  Echo: Did I fall asleep?

  Boyd: For a little while.

  3. Mellie/November

  

  Mellie/November is my third favourite character. I loved how her character developed throughout the season. She started out as this lovesick neighbour who has the hots for Ballard and then we find out she's actually an active for the Dollhouse.

  4. Boyd

  

  I love Boyd as Echo's handler. I like how he kind of acts like a father to her. It's awesome that he becomes Head of Security but I'll miss him as Echo's handler.

  5. Alpha

  

  Alpha is my fifth favourite character. I know that he is only in 2 episodes but The Dollhouse is always talking about him. Alan Tudyk did an amazing job portraying him. I loved how he kept switching personalities. I loved the suspense building up for us to finally see his character. With him sending secret messages to Ballard.

  Honourable Mentions:

  Victor

  

  I'm not a big fan of the Russian guy personality. I find he is pretty funny when his mind is wiped.

  Sierra

  

  I don't remember which episode but Sierra took the identity of this one women and she looked a lot like her. I also liked her in "Haunted" when she becomes a friend to Topher. Her character didn't make Top 5 because her character did develop but not like the top 5.

  Adelle

  

  I didn't like Adelle at first. I didn't start liking her until halfway through the season.

  Topher

  

  I didn't like Topher either at first, but then I started liking him halfway through the season.

  Ivy

  

  I don't really remember her too much but I liked her in the episodes she was in.

  Least Favourite

  Paul

  

  I didn't like his obsession with finding Echo and then sleeping with Mellie.

  Dominic

  

  I hated his character. I'm glad he got sent to The Attic.

  My next blog will either have to do with Dr. Horrible's Sing Along Blog which I need to rewatch because I forget a lot from it or it will be a blog about Edgemont.
