chenanceouVeronica Mars started airing in Brazil - 5 PM on Tuesdays. Perfect for the teen. There's very little tv time allowed here and she has to submit shows beforehand for approval (enlightened despotism is alive and well, thank you very much) and with Joan of Arcadia axed, she has an opening. Veronica Mars it is... After all the complaining I did about it. It does beat the torture that is Gilmore Girls and the annoying Lorelais. It gets to the point we have bets who will be the most annoying of the duo for the week. Thank the makers of gummy worms & other good things in the world for Emily Gilmore - she makes it bearable.
The "L" Word starts here next month. That merits the belly dance of joy. QaF is nice and yes, Brian is one of the handmade by gods males out there, but I wanted "L". So me happy. The absurdly late Sunday slot is not so hot, but I still have a VCR around here somewhere.
I need TiVo.
Watched all the finales. House was my favourite. By far. Lost lost me. Desperate Housewives was so bland I'm thinking they will have a hard time with season 2, but hey... I thought Wonderfalls would last forever and haven't watched Housewives since the Linette charactericature started me questioning my admiration for the amazing Felicity Huffman (who I heard is brilliant in >Transamerica<).
Wire in the Blood has been commissioned for a fourth season *dance of joy*. The actress playing Carol is pulling a Caruso (or has it been upgraded to a Duchovny now that Caruso is working again?) and is not coming back. Robson Green stays on as Dr. Tony Hill and, frankly, I'm learning to appreciate my shows sans ship'. Series 3 should be airing in the US since it is already airing here.
Doctor Who has me hooked (we are talking coveting Dalek salt & pepper thingies hooked). I watch it with the young'un and we both love the Doctor, but are both petrified of the regeneration (it will be our first) . Whoever is responsible for Chris Eccleston not returning for a second series: May your bed be infested with the fleas of a thousand camels!
So I'm sticking to my doctors and hoping for a side of witches (Hex should be back some time around October? Brits?) and The "L" Word.
Now, back to watching the man I should have met when I was younger and prettier... >Eddie Izzard<. When things get tough, it's Eddie to the rescue.
"The NRA says 'guns don't kill people, people do.' But I think that the gun helps. You know? I think it helps. I think that if you just walked around going 'Bang!' you wouldn't kill too many people would you? You'd have to be really dogdy on the heart for that to work."
"I like my coffee hot and strong, like I like my women, hot and strong... with a spoon in them."
