a short reacap of my personal opinions on 2008s popculture:

what really stands out:

jimmy smits as miguel prado on dexter

the lovely anna paquin on true blood

tom sizemore as detective cooper on crash

best shows:

true blood (without a doubt)

dexter

chuck

btw:

there are so many shows or people who should be mentioned because they really did a great job, so i will just do that here!

first of all the creators, actors and all staff of pushing daisies. they really did a wonderful job

alec baldwin a s the king of comedy, as the new yorker wrote. and hand in hand with baldwin goes tina fey and her whole 30 rock ensemble. a show that grew to one of my personal favourit things on tv

bruce campbell for his hilarious and quite serious performance in burn notice

the creators, actors and staff of las vegas. great job. a shame it didn't last

crash and true blood for shaking things up and thematizing quite political and controversive issues on tv

weeds for being still a great show, but not making it into the top three

besides tv?

barak obama for winning the election

cinema: no country for old men, walle

music: robert forster, bodies of water, rökkurro
