Touché on Narnia, had to be the biggist load of crap eva! I mean I know its a kids film but you'd expect it to have something to entertain the older audience, not even sure if kids enjoyed it too much.
nice list!

The Narnia movie way sucked. Didn't see it coming, but man. It even LOOKED cheap! Also, what was with the erotic tension between whatshisname and his horse?

we dispute david's characteristic of the narnia movie, but his girlfriend is pretty hot.

Careful with the R.I.P. on the Arrested Development, it still isn't officially canceled plus it looks like it should be picked up by someone like Showtime or ABC.

ah glad 2005 was the year of the west wing addiction for someone else too, i got through seasons 1-5 in a few months, and now i love it so much.
