Was a bit preoccupied with alternately posting on Get Glue live as it happened and perving on Michael during the original airing of the show Thursday, so I'm rewatching this week's episode of Person of Interest ... with the benefit of the pause and rewind buttons so I can perv and pay attention to the storyline!

Boy, are we Rushies luckiest fans on earth or what? Look how much it costs to have dinner with Michael Emerson! (On top of travel expenses if you don't live in the NYC area.) At least it's for charity.

Not only that, but I just bought the latest (double) issue of Entertainment Weekly magazine, in which Doc Jensen's excellent Lost finale analysis ( ( Read more... )
