Probably is me; usually is. But I digress.
My point is that I've been "getting into" MVC using VS2013 (which I find excellent). Seems pretty cool; bit quirky compared to WebForms but I get it and I kinda like it. Nothing too complex yet but I like that I can fire up a new project and pretty much everything I need is already done for me. Neat.
The thing that makes me say "is it just me" is that it looks and feels a lot like Classic or Ladies ASP.
Just an observation.

It looks and feels like a ladies asp, does it? ... you may need to get out more!

MVC started to make sense to me when I abandoned the notion of a "web page".
MVC is used best when you switch entirely to AJAX pumping Json server side and processing it with various Javascript frameworks client side.
but maybe that's just me.

im not top familiar with mvc asp, but what is the advantage of using it (over vanilla html and web services) in this way?

Well, after you try to cut though all the hype, what remains is the promise of better automated testing, better separation of layers (which you can do with a good web form architecture too), no ViewState, which is supposed to be very bad, but can be turned off anyway.
In the end if this is what the customers want and offer good money/jobs, you gotta go with the flow.
(Edit)
BTW there is a very neat way to bypass the whole ORM crap if you want. Developed a simple library, that enables you to use SQL/stored procs in very familiar way and pass the DataTables directly as JSON to the client JavaScript and in the JavaScript they behave exactly like the serialized object lists that get generated by the Entity Framework. Very neat actually. Will try to push the bosses for the next production project in that direction

Yeah - testing is something I need to get my head around with the Javascript side of things - testing of Web Services is all reasonably simple but I'm unfamiliar with automated JS testing.
Separation of layers - while MVC does that well, I think a simple web service as a layer, JS view model as a layer and HTML5 view as a layer is about as separate as you can get.
Viewstate - yeah - always tended to turn it off anyway!

I want!

DataTables in their entirety, or just the data therefrom? I'd normally use DataReader to populate POCOs and JSONify them - but would think about a library to go from DataReader straight to JSON...

Sitalkes wrote: you gotta go with the flow.
Yeah - I'm just trying to go with the next flow - I believe that vanilla HTML / Javascript / Ajax with JSON web services is the way to go - I just don't understand where ASP.NET WebForms or MVC comes into the equation (I'm thinking not at all)

Nope, a part of it you can take from right here in CodeProject.
DataTable To JSon[^]
^ Not my article
Edit: actually the trick is NOT to go the whole way to string
But to pass to the View the list of Dictionaries. MVC is internally using then the System.Web.Script.Serialization.JavaScriptSerializer();

I agree, but only because it's designed to write applications that serve web pages, instead of hide all that silly html and server stuff from you so you don't have to bother learning any of it.

I'm digging into my first MVC project as well, and that's one of the first things that came to mind, that I was back in the client side mess formerly known as classic ASP. Yuck. Although I am enjoying MVC overall.
