Did you ever hear about how Joss wanted to do something on just Giles? Rumor/conjecture has been circulating for years that Ripper might come to pass and now it looks like
it's one step closer (if you're in Brittain that is).
In other news, what was the point exactly of broadcasting only eight episodes of Traveler?? We start to get a glimpse of just how deep the rabbit hole goes and... STOP! That's all you get. How rude!
Meanwhile, I'm hooked on Damages because I mean, come on, we're talking Glen Close, people! Starring weekly! From what I've seen and read so far, it's going to be the best (only?) lawyer drama that never has a courtroom scene!
Also this summer, the Brits (ITV I think) are spitting out four more episodes to make series five of Wire in the Blood; still as good as ever but I predict there won't be any more episodes after this series...
Back stateside, I'm totally enjoying Burn Notice and Psych both of which make me laugh out loud. Neither have award-winning performances or writing but both are just good fun -- even Peter watches these two with me :)
Last but not least, in movie news, the
longest trailer yet is out for The Golden Compass (choose extended preview) -- looks like they did a pretty good job putting this complex book on the big screen. I'm not sure I can say the same for the updated, adaption of
The Dark is Rising... I'll go see it of course, and then decide. But having just re-read the series earlier this summer, it'll take some convincing that they did a good job.
