Here are the geeky/nerdy links that piqued my interest this week:

  • Monday’s animated Google Doodle in honor of the 107th Anniversary of Winsor McCay’s Little Nemo in Slumberland is easily my favorite one they’ve done. (Techland)
  • It looks like Edgar Wright’s Ant Man finally got a release date albeit a long time from now. (Splash Page)
  • The video from Felix Baumgartner’s 24-Mile free-fall space jump is ridiculous. (Time)
  • Could there be an animated Firefly series? (The AV Club)
  • The first trailer for the Carrie remake starring Chloë Grace Moretz which is great casting. (io9)
  • I’m surprised it took this long for someone to mash-up Dexter and Dexter’s Laboratory but it was worth the wait. (Nerd Approved)
  • I’m excited that Clark Gregg is returning (somehow) as Agent Coulson for Marvel’s S.H.I.E.L.D. show! (Splash Page)
  • Trailer for series four of Misfits.  It’s like a completely different cast now.  I hope I still like it.  (E4)
  • The best animated show on television, Bob’s Burgers, got renewed for season four! (Deadline Hollywood)
  • Back Pages discusses the first collection of Neil Gaiman’s The Sandman (The AV Club)
  • For a person who eats as fast as I do, a strip that can heal mouth burns might be a godsend. (Geekologie)
  • Disney/Marvel released an official synopsis for Iron Man 3 (Splash Page)
  • Warner Bros plans to start shooting the Justice League film in summer of 2015.  That gives them plenty of time to find a cast, director, script, etc. (Blending Cool)

My 50 Favorite Television Shows of the 00s

Now, let me just say off the bat that I do not believe these are the 50 best shows of this decade (although some certainly are). These are just the 50 television shows that brought me the most entertainment, the ones that I am most fond of when I think back on the decade. I contemplated doing this in order of love/respect but then this post would never get done so I’ll do a Top 10.

I decided to leave off The Simpsons and South Park because they’ve been on for so long (and I needed any excuse to make room for other shows) but they both had great episodes in the 00′s and if I didn’t need the room, they’d make the cut.

I tried to stick with shows that had at least two full seasons under its belt unless the show had been canceled like Freaks and Geeks.

And, no, I’ve never watched The West Wing or ER and that’s why they aren’t on the list.
