Back on the Wagon
Ok, this is a test shot really. This picture is so cute (to me!!!) that I'm hoping to leverage it into posting some more again. Wish me luck (or lack there of if I tend to bore you).
Lets start with this. An update on my TV watching:
Sundays
They moved The F Word! That sucks, but it looks like a little mini marathon is coming up one of these days on The Beeb (did I use that right Kathy?).
Rome is currently on, and really seems to be the case these days, I look forward to this HBO show more than just about anything else on TV. Shame the seasons are so short and infrequent.
Mondays
If 24 is on, I guess I'll watch it most of the time (but am perfectly content to play Civ IV in the background while it is on).
Studio 60...I didn't really realize it until Kathy pointed it out today, but it really seems to be loosing steam. Bah, shame really. She had some good guesses about why...basically becoming a soap opera, and the characters that I like (the performers on the show) getting almost no material these days.
Tuesday
Gilmore Girls. I do like the fast talking. The season has been ok, though the less Christopher, the better, but fortunately it seems to be moving in that direction...he is just...so...boring.
Veronica Mars. Really seems to fall into the same category with 24...fine background noise.
Wednesday
Happy to have Lost back. I seem to be one of the few that could have stuck with Jack, Kate, Sawyer and the others longer. Oh well, I do like the way the guy from the hatch uses "brother"....reminds me of how my best friend from High School used to talk.
Thursday
I love me some Earl and Office. Nothing too spectacular this season, but I've enjoyed 'em.
The O.C. has been MUCH better this year. Reminded me of the first season. That being said, it is probably fine that this week is the series finale. Kind of out of story lines. I really thought they should have killed Ryan Atwood off, like they were trying to play it as last week... would have been great closure.
Friday-Saturday
College Hockey and EPL kind of sum it up.

I just realized that you're back on the blog, so welcome back!
You didn't mention Galactica.
Veronica Mars, 24, Lost, Boston Legal and How I Met Your Mother are the best shows on TV.
Galactica...can't be bothered. For largely the reasons that you just called out on your blog.
Maybe I feel like they aren't taking advantage of their setting in using all of the things that could inspire wonder...mythology, technology, etc. to base episodes around...instead of boring bad shit constantly happening.
Chuck, you really need HBO, if for no other reason than so you can get the back library of their shows free on In Demand (or whatever your cable company calls it). Rome, Deadwood, etc.
