Hi! I wasn't sure if there was a post like this yet (If there was, my bad!) but I thought I'd ask -

what music have you been listening to lately?

what books have you been reading?

what tv shows/movies have you been watching?

etc. etc.

Or alternatively your favorite music/movies/tv/books in general? Just curious to people's tastes on here.  ;D

I love Built to Spill haha and I've seen The Wire! Just figured I had to put that or Breaking Bad since people who haven't seen either view them as "those shows everybody recommends" haha. Love them both though

Right on I watched the first season of The Walking Dead and felt it was a little slow but I've heard it's gotten waaay better so I've been meaning to check it out again!

Music...well, I like a bit from a lot of folks and genres, really.

Movies the same thing--just a few days ago I watched "The World's End" for the first time. Really good movie but...not at all what I was expecting.

Books--I just finished a Doctor Who novel called "Ten Little Aliens" by Stephen Cole. It's a really good/creepy sci-fi story. Basically, imagine an Agatha Christie novel set-up, but with a bunch of gruff, military sci-fi soldiers trapped on a mysterious, hallowed-out asteroid.

Speaking of which--TV wise, I've been doing a lot of Doctor Who watching. I've been doing a rewatch of the modern series with my dad, getting him into it, in the forth season now. I've also been watching the original series online.
