BTW, to paraphrase Charlie Prince (3:10 to Yuma), "I hate smurfs."
No Way! What a small world-that's weird. I'm sorry that he is/was such a jerk but my favorite characters in the show are Dominic and the helicopter and the theme music of course!

I HATE THESE: Any nightly news program (national or local)--have you ever noticed that the news is virtually the same, night after night, with only the names changing?
YES! I'm up at all hours of the night now and I watch TV to try to stay awake while I'm feeding the baby. I only get three channels---CBS, ABC, NBC---which all air news from about 4am onward. Every broadcast is the same, and each channel usually features the same stories in the same order.
The names really are pretty much the only things that are different, considering that there seems to be a single wardrobe consultant and hairstylist for all existing TV news personalities. It's "blonde anchorwoman with professional bob" and "anchorman with dark suit and combover" on every channel! |

In days gone by, my favs - "Leave it to Beaver," "All in the Family," and "Seinfeld".
Well, things have changed in the past couple of years ...
I am now completely immersed in "24". I do believe that might very well be the best television program ever conceived. I started with the current Season 7. I got so involved that I ordered Season 1 on DVD and am watching that, sort of concurrently. The show keeps me riveted for the entire episode. Just some gutsy and intelligent stuff ... |

I checked Showtime On Demand last night and they had the first episode of Season 3 of "The Tudors" on there. It was fantastic and nice to see it before the Season premieres on April 5.
I enjoyed it so much. Big surprise though that they had a differend actress playing Jane Seymour but I think I like this one better than the original one Jane is kind hearted and very likeable.
Looks like this season will be the most "brutal" yet judging from the previews and Henry does seem a lot more "menacing" and "blood-thirsty". JRM really does a fantastic job portraying Henry but they do need to age him more as he still looks around 30 when Henry is supposed to be in his forties at least but that is not too important to me.
So if you have Sho On Demand be sure to check it out

Yes, 24 ranks as my favorite ever show. Spellbinding! But, now off the air!
Been watching a lot of television of late - probably way too much - here are my current favorites, in no particular order:
-- Dexter -- Men of a Certain Age -- Damages -- NCIS -- The Good Wife -- Jay Leno's "Headlines" segment -- The Event -- Judge Judy -- Dallas Cowboys Football -- SEC College Football |

But, of course!! She may be "made-for-TV," but she strongly believes in accountability & truth. Love her! She's my "other" woman!!
As for the Cowboys, MG ... it's another of my sordid love affairs ... since '66. |

Well, - maybe back in '66, tough for me to imagine that, but ok. Having said that, - "love must be blind" alright, these last few years, they're missing quite a few pieces. ... ;) |
