Guess what happens when you drop your external hard drive on the wood floor from four feet above! Hint: nothing good. The external hard drive gods continue to have it in for me. Fortunately, my mom's friend repaired one of the broken ones, and my remote backup service has everything backed up, so rather than a massive crisis I have a medium-sized

You could get drunk playing the Procedural Cliche Drinking Game while watching Rizzoli & Isles. But I'll watch until it gets less gay, which means I'll be watching until it's canceled.

Yeah, I was watching that with the Grad School Best Friend, and we were so confused, because we both know that Angie Harmon is so conservative, and yet the show is so gay. And they even changed the novels very drastically to make it more gay! Like, Maura and Jane are not BFF in the novels, and Jane is married to the FBI guy by like, the second or third book. I mean, this is not the first time Angie Harmon has had that kind of role, what with the dearly departed Women's Murder Club, but it is really hard to get less gay than Rizzoli and Isles.

9. I am trying to decide if it's my own issues, or if this season of Leverage really sucks a lot.

Oh, bummer, since we just started Season 1. I did go to bed early in the middle of this week's new episode, though, so that bears you out.

Oh, also, the Gospel channel on the digital cable at the parents just started showing Judging Amy. This is almost enough to make me want to stay home from Russia.

Angie Harmon has been a lesbian icon since Law & Order, whether she likes it or not. She should learn to appreciate the source of her paycheck. USA Network certainly does, from the way the show is marketed.

Leverage is very uneven throughout. Its best episodes are really fun, but you have to turn off your logic meter a lot.

Gospel Channel? Is that what it's called? And it cracks me up so hard that a socialist show with two atheist leads keeps getting aired on Christian TV.

And yet my mother just appreciates the show with all of her procedural-loving heart. I keep waiting for her to notice the gay.

Yeah, that was not lost on me either. Apparently all you need is a pretty white lady and a lady with white hair to equal "family values" to someone at these networks. And it really is called the Gospel Channel. It was originally a music channel and is now for family programming-- JA comes on after the Waltons. I'll be over here laughing if you need me.

I do not get Gospel Channel. Like Maxine, I am knitting grumpily. I was going to set the DVR to record them ALL.

I too have been catching Judging Amy reruns on the gospel channel. The other day they showed a Dr. Quinn episode about Walt Whitman's sexuality that they must not have previewed.
