Fast. It's not for everyone.
...the commercial with turtles saying they like slow, and therefore they like dsl, because it is so much slower than comcast?Baboyap: yep
-With cable, you download photos or music and it's right there. Who needs that? Where's the fire?
-I dont smell anything.
heehee.: I like the way the turtles talk.plus I am kind of like that. I get used to making do. reading a book while pages download or whatever. so that I almost might not want it to be faster... a person gets used to waiting. fills the waiting with something else. so it's a habit. and then if you don't have to wait anymore? requires adjustment.

p3 Overall, I liked this enough to give it another chance. It didn't blow my mind or anything, but it was good enough that I didn't feel like it was actively insulting my intelligence either, and sometimes that's all you really need from this kind of show. If they go in the right direction with it and try not to give in to cliche too much, it could fill the easy listening slot in my viewing habits. Right now I don't have a show that's just about people doing relatively normal people things. I'm open to something that doesn't involve crime solving, or evil robots, or wacky shenanigans.
p
4 I've yet to see a really well-written female object of affection who isn't a total Mary Sue (?); so far Marjorie ranks above Marissa Cooper and Lana Lang (high standards, I know), but we'll see. I'm glad that Brian and Marjorie got a lot out in the open right away -- I feared that the series was going to be about Brian harboring his secret crush interminably. right, this was my thought.
p
5 I know the pining over the best friend's girl is so cliche, but I'm happy they had him say something about it right away versus drawing it out half a year before she finds out.
-I felt an awful lot happened in one episode...I'm just not sure yet if that's a good thing or a bad thing.


p 9 --No one seems believable. I love the awesome homes they miraculously paid for with the jobs they never seem to have to go to. Everyone is ridiculously good looking and well dressed.--See, this is the kind of commentary that I don't understand. Almost EVERYONE on television is ridiculously good looking. Unless it's a show actually set in the workplace people don't usually go to work and if they do there's very little actual work being done. If I wanted to see average people doing average things living average lives - I'd start interacting more with my coworkers. To me it's like saying "I didn't like the show because it was broadcast inside a little box that sits in my living room."
