Thank you. But I'd be a crap copy editor. I'd be too busy trying to smuggle innuendo into whatever I was doing.
If it was just the one account then maybe, but he's lifted material from the posts of at least three different users on the digital home forum today.

Re: What new Fall shows are you watching in Canada?
I have looked at PAN AM, Terra Nova, Strike Force and Camelot. They're all soft viewing. Nothing as good as Game of Thrones yet although I am warming to Boardwalk Empire but need to watch the first series.
The Biggest Loser is always a winter favourite for me, especially now Ana Kournikova is on.
I am not a huge TV watcher here but now it's winter I have Monday and Tuesday evenings to stare at the box.

Nope, not exclusively ayway, it belongs to Internet Brands now
Hence lifting words (even if by some small chance they are your own) from elsewhere being discouraged... that and the fact that it seems to creates entirely vacuous threads.
Im just glad I dont have cable anymore. I miss it less and less to be honest.

Re: What new Fall shows are you watching in Canada?
Haven't watched H8R, looks like a kid's show? Haven't watched Suburgatory, Prime Suspect is pretty good though.
I like Free Agents, it has a really good cast, although there's another show on before it called: Up All Night which unfortunately is a bit weak and I think it will kill Free Agents, they should be broadcast the other way around.
Whitney is a bit uneven, it's really dull for about half the show and then it gets more interesting, the first two episodes have been like that. Community is really funny, that UN episode cracked me up. Why in God's name they renewed Parks and Recreation again is beyond me though.
They've upped the number of hot chicks in Law & Order: SVU so I will probably carry on watching that but Prime Suspect is a better TV show. Person of Interest seems to be okay, it's a novel idea for a show, not sure it quite works though.
There's a couple of Mad Men rip-offs, Pan-Am and The Playboy Club, both of which seem quite weak so far, Pan-Am is the better one though.
I think CBS have had their chips, Two Broke Girls is total rubbish and Two and a Half Men should have been cancelled.
The current season of Breaking Bad on AMC has been pretty good, that is one of my favourite shows. Dexter was on last night but I haven't watched it yet. That show seems to vary from season to season.
Terra Nova was marginal, loosely based on the movie Avatar although the storyline seems like a rip-off of one of Philip K Dick's books, he wrote something very similar, can't remember the name of it off-hand.
I don't watch reality TV, it's all pants as far as I'm concerned.

Modern Family is just about the only show we watch.
By the way Season 4 of BBC Outnumbered has just started in the UK and is available on iplayer. Must get around to watching it soon. Funny the only shows we identify with are those featuring disfunctional families, lol
Thinking about it, the kids' favourite show at the moment is Fairly Odd Parents

Re: What new Fall shows are you watching in Canada?
Watched first 2 of Terra Nova, tja its lite bubble gum not much brain power needed to get it
2 Broke girls was a giggle for 30 mins
Persons of Interest, looks promising
Fringe is spectacular as all ways
Sons of Anarchy is fantastic as is Breaking Bad
Playboy Club more bubble gum
Castle is fun like The Mentalist
Mike & Molly is a good gigle, especialy if you are a tad tubby
Some more new programmes are yet to start
