And sundry
1. I wanted to have lasagna for dinner, but I don't have the ingredients and that football game is Saturday, and the grocery store's parking lot was packed, so no lasagna for me. Woes.
2. 10 of the most bizarre fairy tale adaptations. (Print only.) You can guess which I've read, and which 3 I now intend to read.
3. I've been watching the original The Bionic Woman, and it holds up considerably better than I was expecting. There are bits that make me cringe and/or roll my eyes, but I'm largely enjoying it. The episodes of The Six Million Dollar Man that Jaime appeared in are also included. Interestingly, while The Bionic Woman generally does a good job (so far) of not objectifying Jaime, The Six Million Dollar Man is perfectly to objectify Steve, who acquired an unflattering pornstache at some point. It's also rather amusing to see how much EVERY SINGLE CHARACTER ships Jaime/Steve, given that they aren't even in the same series. (My introduction to the franchise was actually when I caught a TV movie in the 90s in which they finally got married a couple decades later.)
4. Apparently Do No Harm, the latest modern remake of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde had utterly horrible ratings for the pilot. I'm not surprised, as it sounded rather unimaginative and very "the exact same thing, but in modern times." (Then again, "the exact same thing, but in modern times" seems to be working pretty well for Sherlock, so you never know.)
5. I refuse to ever use the title "five things to make a post," but apparently I still feel there should be a 5.
