I really want to see this...

All the Small Things. It sounds good, and Bryan Dick is in it...(enough reason right there for me!) A show about trouble in a church choir. Sounds like my life!

A new guilty pleasure!

1000 Ways to Die, on Spike TV. It's a rather gruesome show about different and weird ways people have died. Each death is re-enacted by actors. Some deaths are real (names and places changed), like the lawyer who threw himself out of a glass window trying to prove it unbreakable, and the guy who let his pet Black Widow spider bite him, but others are likely based on urban legends. Some are absolutely disgusting- like the guy who hid a pepper spray up his rear, only to have it go off and burn his insides. Others are just plain dumb- snorting fire ants? Ew. Each death has a terrible pun given to it- like "Tanked Girl" for a woman who blows up in a decompression chamber. And each show ends with footage from a real accident where the victim survived.

House Humor!

From http://roflrazzi.com/

It's never lupus!



Awwwww.



WTF???



If the whole team is looking down on you, you are very screwed.

Uh-oh...I don't like this!

Major death on House coming? A suicide??? Obviously it won't be Dr. House himself, because without Hugh Laurie there is no show! Thirteen would be too obvious, because of her Huntingdon's Disease. Wilson is pretty depressed a lot of the time...and so is Taub. I think they've been setting something up for Taub! I'd really, really hate for it to be Cuddy. That would be shocking and inexplicable (unless something happens to baby Rachel, which of course would push her over the edge). Kutner seems to be too happy to be suicidal. But he could be hiding something...Cameron? Foreman? Nah. I don't see it.

As far as cast members leaving, I've only heard rumors about Jesse Spencer...but there would be no reason for Chase to off himself! That would come from nowhere and make no sense.

If Robert Sean Leonard goes...I don't know if I'll want to watch anymore! The House/Wilson friendship is the thing that got me hooked in the first place.

Anyway, despite a few lackluster episodes recently, I'm definitely going to be glued to my televison until the finale!

I'm with Jack Bauer...

DAMMIT!!!!



Actually, it's been one of those weeks. I felt so rotten that I didn't even feel like watching any of my shows last week, even 24. Ouch. Now I'm a week, er, an hour, behind. And I'm three weeks behind on Lost, but I have those taped, so I'll just need to set aside a few hours to watch them.

I've been watching, but not writing...

I haven't updated this in a while. I have been watching my shows- Lost has been mostly good, and, amazingly, so has 24. House has been a bit bleah. Some of the stories haven't interested me at all. And once again, I've pretty much given up on Law and Order: Special Victims Unit.

Lately I've been indulging in some guilty pleasures- Seconds from Disaster and Air Emergency/Mayday! on the National Geographic Channel. For some reason, I like watching stories about disasters! Air Emergency is a good one- especially when the show covers crashes I remember well, such as the bombing of Pan Am 103, and Delta 191 (which happened on my 14th birthday!).

Seconds from Disaster is no longer being made, but a new season of Air Emergency has aired. NatGeo has an odd schedule, so I never know when episodes are going to air. Luckily, I've seen some elsewhere...some will be on DVD soon.
