working A LOT and watching tv. some tv highlights (work highlights? no such thing):

1. i’ve deleted “the closer” from tivo. boring. and chuck. i just don’t care about anything in that show.
2. burn notice, law and order franchises, criminal minds, life, and life on mars are all fine. like comfort food. gossip girl is a step up from these shows, and dan, you dirty dog, you.
3. “lie to me” is sort of ok. once i learn how to identify all liars, i will stop watching the show.
4. heroes: is it just me or was that last episode pretty good? looks like the writer who left to run “eli stone” (dearly departed, those bastards at ABC) is now back at heroes, and it’s good again. peter and mohinder still suck, but i was digging the xmen persecution stuff. derivative, but compelling.
5. 24 didn’t record this week b/c it was boxed out by “the closer.” this is why i deleted that show off tivo.
6. bones was excellent. deirdre lovejoy: you are not that attractive, but i will watch anything you’re in.
7. 90210 and privileged: two shows i have no business watching, but find enough snippets of joy to fastforward through the bad parts just to get to the gems. adriana, i love you.
8. and what’s with my fridays being totally blown up? i’m not making any weekend plans until the end of march.
literally my favorite 3 shows right now are friday night lights (i test the strength of an episode by counting how many times it makes me cry. last ep: 4 times!), battlestar galactica (6 eps left. GAH), and the sarah connor chronicles, which returns next week on this new night. then joss whedon’s highly anticipated (by me) “dollhouse” is set to launch next week, and suddenly fridays officially became the “kick the roommate out so i can watch tv in peace” night.

unfortunately fridays are where shows usually go to die. why can’t my tastes be more mainstream? better yet, why does everyone else in the world watch total crap? bah.

damn you simon/paula/randy/new girl.
