Summary

We warned you that this week there would be no regular Pick of the Week show, but instead we offer to you part one of the 2006 All Media Year End Roundup where we discuss everything we enjoyed in 2006 from movies, to TV, to IPTV, to music and of course, comics. As an added bonus, comments are open for you to discuss what your 2006 picks were. Enjoy! Running Time: 01:25:34 Movies: 00:01:45 - We start the discussion talking about movies, for which 2006 was a down year and Conor saw the most movies out of all of us. 00:03:27 - Big year for comics movies with Superman Returns, X-Men: The Last Stand and V for Vendetta, our opinions really haven't changed. 00:07:58 - Conor and Josh have big man crushes on Daniel Craig, the latest Bond in Casino Royale. 00:11:24 - We all saw The Departed together and loved it, although some more than others. 00:14:05 - The "indie darling of the year"? Maybe, maybe not but Josh and Ron enjoyed Little Miss Sunshine. 00:15:25 - Ron adored Stranger Than Fiction and Josh and Conor missed out by not seeing it. 00:18:41 - We all saw Clerks 2and while Josh was harder on it than Ron and Conor, it was generally enjoyed. 00:22:51 - Josh bitched about Bobby, his worst movie of the year. 00:25:07 - The best documentary of the year was An Inconvenient Truth, which inspired Ron to spread the word. 00:28:54 - It's time to talk about a movie that Conor loved, Hollywoodland. 00:32:20 - Conor and Ron took a chance on The Last Kiss. Television: 00:36:45 - We probably spend the most amount of time for entertainment on TV, although with DVRs, its changing. But Conor will forever flip. 00:39:07 - We start off with The Wire, so we can let Josh gush and get it over with. 00:40:57 - Josh is engrossed by Grey's Anatomy, coming late to the show, while Ron and Conor have been watching since the beginning. 00:46:24 - Does Lost still have it? Conor thinks so. 00:49:45 - The hit of the year is Heroes and we're still shocked. 00:52:55 - Josh's favorite new show though is Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip. 00:58:15 - My Name is Earl and The Office is the only hour of comedy we watch. 01:02:48 - Battlestar Galactica is the way to Josh's heart. 01:05:36 - Ron is still hanging in with The O.C. and reveals his disturbing history of watching shows like Thirtysomething. 01:09:37 - The Sopranos delivered the goods this year, according to Ron. Conor and Josh didn't quite agree. 01:13:50 - We are enjoying the creative renaissance of ER. 01:18:05 - The best hour of TV for Conor and Ron is 24, hands down. 01:20:18 - Conor and Josh mourn the end of Deadwood. 01:23:40 - Conor thinks the best show that neither Josh or Ron is watching is Veronica Mars. 01:25:26 - Smallville is enjoying a creative renaissance too, but we hope it ends soon.
