LA: This industry sucks, 6.8 days out of 7.
K: Optimist.....

-------------------------------------
You may have noticed that there was no House call this week. That is because I missed the episode, driving back from NYC Tuesday night post-CGAG. Alas.... I am told there will be an ep in my future. Someday. Along with Edmats of Studio 60.

I did get to watch the season opener of CSI: NY (not bad) and CSI:TOS (holding off on judgement until I see the second part, but OMG the cuteness of teh sandwich! Ahem. Sorry).

I also got to see (by being too lazy to change the channel) the premiere of Shark.

I hate lawyer shows as a rule. But, um, James Woods. Yay?

I do NOT want to get hooked on this show. I do NOT wanted to get hooked on this show. But damn, I think it may be too late for me, already....

I also saw a whole bunch of movies, some very good, if weird (Kung Fu Hustle) and some bad (Skeleton Key), and some just...weird (The Naughty Flirt, from 1931, among others). Still to watch: Good Night and Good Luck. Maybe tomorrow.

And now I must go be Familial and Religious. Play nice, kids.

Yes, I don't want to get hooked on any show I can't go out and buy an entire season on DVD and watch that way. But I keep circling SHARK, dammit (or it keeps circling me).

I was angry that Danny Bonaduce was hardly in it. I remember looking at the clock, seeing there was only 15 minutes left, and wondering where the hell he was.

But they redeemed themselves with the scene where Catherine collects evidence from her own body. That was a one-way ticket to creepytown.

it's not surprising that it's well-done, what is surprising is how interesting they've managed to make the cliches. Then again, that's part of the 'well-done,' isn't it?

Did you see who directed it? That surprised me -- and set me up to NOT like it. Live and learn....

Oh and also Yeah. *shudder* But in a 'wow, she's got brass ovaries' kind of way. Tough, tough Catherine...

well, it was part 1 of a two-parter, so maybe he appears in flashbacks in the second part?

I hope so, and I hope it includes all the characters singing "Come On, Get Happy" while they process the crime scene!

No singing! But the Bus should make an appearance.
