TV stuff

mikelesq suggested I should check out the pilot for Global Frequency - warning me that it's a pilot WB decided not to pick up.Oookay, let's add WB to the List of Morons TM (which is of course headed by Fox for cancelling, among other things, Firefly). Nice slant, nice characters, great potential for interesting storylines - a hint of Alias without the irritating presence of Sidney Bristow (gag). Alas, not gonna happen. What a shame. I'd have happily tuned in.
I miss House and Medium. I am getting bored by profiler dramas. Or as mikelesq said in chat last night: just how many serial killers are there running around in LA? So many nutty!killer scenarios have been done already, the TV shows have to really scrape the barrel in order to come up with something new. It's like being in first grade: "my killer is more gross than yours, he cuts off people's faces." -- "yeah, but our dead body's been eaten by maggots for a few weeks". Excuse me while I hurl.
*shakes head*
I want a new SciFi series, something shiny and space-y - and not the kind that makes all alien planets look like Vancouver's backyard. *whine*

Not shiny and space-y, but it is quirky and funny . . . new season of Monk starts next weekend.

And the WB was already on MY List of MoronsTM for cncelling Angel! Although, it was probably second to Fox, for cancelling Firefly (after they did everything possible to screw it up, first) and Wonderfalls.

I've only seen Monk once when visiting Marcee in Florida two years ago, and I hated it. Not my cuppa.
And yeah, I'd forgotten that it was WB who cancelled Angel - must have pushed that knowledge far away...
Morons.

Monk was funny (emphasis on "was")...harumph.

And what chat? I wanna chat. I hate being out of the loop.

Replying to this to add:
I liked your other LJ layout better. This one doesn't look nice on my mac.

Just sayin'.

LOL, Mike caught me when I briefly turned on my AOL communicator. Since Josey no longer uses AIM and since I barely use AOL I keep my messenger off most of the time.

And yeah, I liked my old layout, but it didn't support tags. I wanted tags. Yup, because tags are the new black. :-)

Love your icon. Wooof woof.
