I\u2019m 5 James Bond films in and on my 3rd Star Trek film. For television shows, I accomplished a lot in 2013 and a few in 2014 (but not as many). This year I\u2019d like to watch:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Curb your Enthusiasm<\/li>\n<li>Office (UK)<\/li>\n<li>Finish the Wire (re-start basically as it has ben re-released in HD)<\/li>\n<li>Re-Watch Oz<\/li>\n<li>Maybe a re-watch of Sopranos<\/li>\n<li>American Horror Story<\/li>\n<li>Six Feet Under<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>It\u2019ll be nice to get these under my belt. By the way, the original Star Trek movies are incredibly nerdy! I also bought The Next Generation Series just in case I get around to it.
