Last time I addressed the topic of my DVR, it was because I see parts of myself in the lead characters of House, Castle, and Chuck. A bunch of my DVR'ed shows are now on hiatus, but I think I can address them as well.
Last season, I got into Burn Notice, so lately, I have been going through the old seasons online so I can catch up. Michael Westen is a spy. Rather, he WAS a spy, when a spy gets fired, he receives a "Burn Notice" hence the title. Now, Michael Westen lives in Miami and he takes odd jobs helping people out of troubled situations while he hunts down and finds out who got him burned and why. Now, it does demonstrate that a majority of those in the espionage/intelligence trade possess what I would refer to as "situational ethics", but overall, the successful ones have a cause that they genuinely believe in and while the methods may include violence, overall, Michael Westen is a genuinely good person. My friends would say that they could see how this appeals to me in the fact that I am viewed to also have "situational ethics" but for the most part, am a good person.
White Collar is another show, also on the USA Network, that I got into and throoughly enjoy. It shows how two opposites can work very well together. Neal Caffrey is the smoothest of the smoothest, a forger, a con man, once more "situational ethics" and he raised his skills to a scary efficient levels and was living the good life until he was tracked down not once, but twice by hard-working, honest to a fault, Peter Burke. I'm not sure which one I feel I am more like, perhaps a combiination of the two leads.
Archer - Ohhhh myyy Archer. I love this show. Just completely wrong, inappropriate, uncontrollable humor from wannabe James Bonds. I am sooo proud to love this show, I think it says that I don't care sometimes about offending others, sometimes funny is just funny.
Yeah, so as we delve further into the mind of Bernie's DVR, I don't quite know what to think so far. But I like it.
