I don’t remember if I’ve mentioned it before (and I just checked – I don’t think I have), but I’m a fan of The Secret Diary of a Call Girl (dammit, now I have the opening titles song stuck in my head), starring Billie Piper (who was Rose in Doctor Who and who shares a [...]

I’m not usually with the random linky-linky…
…but this combines two men that I absolutely adore – Stephen Fry (who I have long admired) and Craig Ferguson (who is newly in my affections). Craig Ferguson is the host of the Late, Late Show on CBS and recently did an experiment with just interviewing one guest and having no audience. It sounds like [...]

Re: Olympic figure skating
Two Three things:
Why does all their music SUCK?! Seriously! In order to watch the figure skating without actually ripping my ears off of my head, I have to turn the sound down, put on my headphones, and pretend they’re skating to whatever I’m listening to (admittedly, anything sounds better when done to a soundtrack of [...]

New TV: Monday
Chuck (7:00 CST, NBC)
Yes, I’m super-behind in reminding you that you should be watching Chuck, but, given my Monday TV schedule*, I think you’ll understand:
7:00-7:30, CBS – How I Met Your Mother
7:00-8:00, Fox – House
7:00-8:00, NBC – Chuck
8:30-9:00, CBS – The Big Bang Theory
But this exhausting schedule is worth it – Chuck’s third season looks [...]

Oh, my goodness…
…have I really not posted anything since the Thanksgiving post? I think I’ve been in a blogging funk since the pictures didn’t turn out as well as I’d hoped, so here’s a quick update:
The previous post was to be the first in a series of three – that one was Eat… to be followed by [...]

TV recap and updates!
Well, now that all the fall shows have officially started up (Chuck! Better Off Ted! Mysterious fate of Scrubs! Why are you making me wait until January?!), I thought I’d recap who I thought was off to a good start and who I’d given up on:
And the winners are:
30 Rock
The Office
Cougar Town
Glee
Modern Family
The Big Bang [...]

New TV: Thursday!
30 Rock (8:30 CST, NBC)
I forgot to post this on Thursday, mostly because I trust you are all faithful followers of 30 Rock and didn’t need reminding, but… It’s back! Now my Thursdays are finally complete.
My rating: I’d put down my meth for this show any day. Thanks, Meat Cat!

New TV: Wednesday
ABC are very tricky! They aired the pilots for these two shows on Wednesday and then again tonight which would be perfect timing, but, alas, they’ll actually be airing on Wednesdays, up against Glee.
Modern Family (8:00 CST, ABC)
It’s the return of Al Bundy! Kind of. We’ve got an older man married to a much-younger woman, [...]

New TV: Friday
Smallville (7:00 CST, The CW)
The thing I’m most excited about this TV season? Smallville is on Fridays now! Which means I can actually watch it as it airs! Trust me, it’s very exciting.
Lots of new developments will be taking place this season – Zod is in da house (I don’t know who Callum Blue is, [...]

New TV: Monday
How I Met Your Mother (7:00 CST, CBS)
I’m with Lily on this one – WOOOOOOOOOOO! Another returning favorite off to a good start. Ted is starting his professor gig where he promises he’ll be meeting the Mother and, more importantly, Barney and Robin are finally together! And super-cute to boot. Can’t wait to see where [...]

New TV: Thursday
The Office (8:00 CST, NBC)
It’s back! Big things are coming this season: Jim and Pam’s wedding, Jim and Pam’s baby, and…other things, I’m sure. They’re off to a good start with a very funny episode about office gossip which ends up inadvertently revealing Jim and Pam’s pregnancy.
Not much to say since this is a returning [...]

Just a side note…
…Josh Groban made a guest appearance on Glee tonight (Are you watching this show? Because you totally should be!) Here’s what I want to know, though:
How can Josh Groban be so cute (“Josh Groban loves a blousy alcoholic.”) and yet still be an emissary for Satan?!
It’s just not fair. (Watch Glee! Wednesdays at 8:00 [CST] [...]

New TV: Thursday
Community (8:30 [moves to 7:00 on October 8] CST, NBC)
This is one whose pilot was “airing” on Facebook, I think, and doesn’t actually premiere until this Thursday (the 17th). It stars Joel McHale (from E!’s The Soup – a show I’ve never seen, but I know a lot of people love [and they love him, [...]

New TV: Wednesday
Glee (8:00 CST, Fox)
It’s time for new TV – I thought it would never start!
So technically, I’m very behind on this one – it had an early premiere in March and then again on September 9 – but two of the girls at work said that this was really good and I needed to be [...]

New TV: Friday
Battlestar Galactica (9:00 CST, SciFi)
Yes, I know it’s Saturday, but I don’t get the SciFi channel and am forced to wait until Saturday to download it – in this case, it allowed me to have a BSG marathon with my friend, Jillian, culminating in the new episode which her husband had downloaded and burned for [...]
