You should watch THE WEST WING!! It's what I've been doing and I gotta say it's been an excellent TV-day for me. :D
It's actually funny! I expected non-funny jokes and good drama, but it actually delivers on both (which explains the hype). I think I had lowered expectations because of the dreadful Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip but this is actually goooood!

Some scenes for youuu:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n8zBC2dvERM <-- that's both entertaining AND educational. Also, supercool.

Nevermind, then! Just thought you were bored.

I already have a lot of awesome TV to watch. :P
I have several seasons of Farscape left to watch, for example.

:P

Oh no, not bored at all! I still have this week's Hawaii 5-0, NCIS, Secret Diary, White Collar, the pilots of Mr Sunshine, The Chicago Code and the first two episodes of Outcasts, *plus* the latest episode of The Office, and the latest two episodes of The Cape and three of V. I was going to watch some of that last night but after the crappiness of the above-mentioned shows I just figured the day was cursed and I'd better save them for today. Looks like that was for the best too, since there's only 2 new episodes out today.

I meant what I said though, I'll watch TWW when you watch Castle. Because I'm stubborn like that. :D

Yeah, I have a lot of things to watch, too. I'm several days behind on my TV watching, since I've been watching TWW instead.

Watch TWW now and I'll watch Castle later! It can be next on my stuff to watch list. :D
Because it'd be fun to watch it at the same time, and otherwise it'll take a while. I'm on season two, and there's seven seasons...

Don't think I'll have time to catch up right now, I'm spending too much time playing WoW (finally THISCLOSE to reaching max level and being able to do something other than leveling, which I'm getting pretty sick of). But we'll see, weekends are usually pretty dull so if I get caught up on my regular shows before then I *might* start on TWW. Provided you PROMISE Castle is next on your to-watch-list. Also, don't forget to read his Twitter (I can summarize the old stuff for you if you want) so you can spot the things he manages to sneak in there.

Yes, sure! Just WATCH IT! It's sooo gooood. /is watching s3

Dunno about the twitter thing, though. I don't even remember to read Misha's twitter, I do that in bulk every other month when I get reminded of it by something else. I guess I could try...

I just lost the name-the-actor game, btw. :(
I failed to name or place Mary Louise Parker (from Weeds). Ooops.
To my credit, in that same episode I did manage to recognize the guy who plays Phil ("I'm a cool dad") in Modern Family, so hah.
But, uh, yeah... This is the second time I lost this game this season. :(
I'm bad at recognizing people. XD

Yeah I keep forgetting too, Twitter is hard to keep up with. Anyway, Cliff Notes version: Nathan decides to coin some new phrases, atleast 2 of which he's managed to get into Castle thus far:
BSTL: "Bam said the lady" (kinda like "boom goes the dynamite" or something like that)
FTB = "Feed the birds" (the new high-five, complete with adorable gesture)
I'm also waiting for Castle to go nuts over a Pulse car, because Nathan is INSANE about them. Aaaany episode now...

Ugh, Modern Family. Still haven't gotten further than the pilot on that one, it just doesn't work for me. :( I

Also, this episode I'm watching right now has assassination attempts and a war just started and stuff. I personally find that more interesting than murder victim of the week #1, I actually LIKE politics...

Although the assassination attempt is a bit like a murder victim of the week procedural! FBI running around looking for shooters and stuff. Very Criminal Minds. XD

Meh, depends on how it's done. Some politics can be interesting, but most of it is usually just bickering and backstabbing and speeches. Yaaaawn.

TWW is about democrats, so it's fun to see them fighting for gay people and poor people and people of color and so on, against the ~evil republicans~.

IDK. The bickering and speeches in this show are usually very snarky, I like.

Well it's a buncha years old, so maybe it's slightly less headache-inducing than watching The Daily Show and The Colbert Report is now. Srsly, mainstream media in the US? KWAYZEE. And the politicians too, of course, not a week goes by without some elected official saying or doing something idiotic. And that's on both sides, although naturally far more often on the republican side.
Anyway, American politics = like a crazy reality show. And I don't like reality shows unless they're being mocked.

I KNOW. US is a silly place.
But it's amusing in the show, though. Promise. :D

Oh my gosh, watch this:

lol the president is my favorite. XD
Bonus points because that was totally my reaction the first time I heard some similar bacteria names. XD XD XD
