I guess I’d better move “The Rig” up my reading list. Yes, I bought it because of the gorgeous cover. Sue me.

Anyhoo, Emily Hampshire (Stevie from Schitt’s Creek) is going to be in a new series based on the book.

And while I was delighted to see that my two fantasy Canadian husbands, Nick Lea and Dylan Neal, are getting work, I am still not in love with this show. I love certain characters--Felicity, Quentin--and I love the green leather suit and hood, but the flashbacks have started to wear on me, Oliver occasionally makes me want to shake him until his ( Read more... )

The demolition started yesterday, and it was down to bare bones when I got home. I suspect that the repair work was done today, because I had some rotted framing wood and subfloor that needed to be replaced ( Read more... )

I really enjoy Debi Mazar's show on the Cooking Channel. She and her husband Gabriele are so adorable together, and they make the most amazing Italian food. Even when I don't think that I'd like the dish (like the lard and herb crostini they made tonight), I love to watch them prepare and enjoy food ( Read more... )

I like the series well enough, but I think having read the books has diminished my enjoyment just a tad. I keep waiting to see people and events on the screen that have either been cut or rolled into another character's experience ( Read more... )

Is anyone watching the new AMC series, "The Walking Dead"? The guys at Project Rungay, of all people, are praising the heck out of it as a character study. And I could use a new series to plug the hole on Sunday that used to be occupied by "Leverage".

I didn't get to bed until 3 a.m. last night, because I was up watching the first four episodes of the third season of "Slings and Arrows". I should have known better than to put the DVD in the player at 11 p.m. I just couldn't stop watching. If I hadn't fallen asleep during the fourth episode, I might not have gone to bed, at all ( Read more... )

Anybody watch last night's episode? I only got to see the last 20 minutes, but Jason Wiles was guest-starring as a former lover of Mary's. I hope he's a recurring character. I used to love Bosco. Check that, I used to love watching Bosco and Yokas. He was so needy; she was so strong. One of the hottest fanfics I ever read was one in which ( Read more... )

I mostly watch the late-night eps on USA. But now that the show has sucked me in, I watched the new episode last night. No spoilers, but I have to say that the final episode of this series had better involve House, Wilson, and Cuddy setting up housekeeping (pun unintended, but appropriate) together and living happily ever after ( Read more... )

The Clinton campaign can't seem to win for losing. And just what was going through that idiot Penn's head? How could he possibly think he could play for both teams? You know, I don't want Hillary to win (I'm not for Obama; I'm just against inheriting the presidency), but I'm beginning to feel like someone's out to get her. Which makes me want to ( Read more... )
