Wednesday is braindump day!
I too support The Politics of Optimism.
Jones Soda is planning a series of new bottle labels featuring LOLcat macro art. Finally.
The first ep of S2 of THE TUDORS is up on Showtime’s website if you just cannot wait. But apparently that’s an edited version. Meanwhile, Salon calls the show “beautifully costumed soft porn.” Yeah? And your problem with that is?
BATTLESTAR GALACTICA is starting next week (yay), IN TREATMENT is ending this Friday (boo)…and soon after that my DVR will be overflowing with all the shows coming back from strike-hiatus. Whoa!
New music is out from The Raconteurs, and me likey. First video here.
Also, a nifty new Spoon video here.
Think about cutting meat out of your diet now and then - it’s The Green Thing To Do.
A list of Judd Apatow’s favorite films. All worth seeing.
Joss-related-news: no surprise to see a DOCTOR HORRIBLE fansite pop up…but check out this great video they have of NPH & Jason Segel singing. Very promising for Joss’s little webshow.
Promo ad for Showtime’s new import, THE SECRET DIARY OF A CALL GIRL. Hmmm.
Ian McKellan uses the words “the fevered imagination of slashers” in a sentence. *glee*
Thanks to BoingBoing, the source of this skullphone art, which I used to see EVERYWHERE on the streets of LA, has been revealed. And why am I not surprised: there’s merch!
I first heard of this on Bill Maher’s show last Friday: Massachusetts Rep. Barney Frank is hoping to get a bill through the house to decriminalize personal pot use in small amounts. Well. Good luck with that. *inhales*
The I <3 TORCHWOOD Department: Still squeeing over the last 3 eps. I've seen everything up to the wedding. Fun stuff! We Jack/Gwen fans have a lot to love right now - “unstated” or not, it’s CANON bitches. Terrific eps recently; the show is really proving itself as an adult-themed merger of BUFFY and THE X FILES. I just caught up with Pop Candy’s podcast interview with Eve “Gwen” Miles, what a sweet lady. Plus…Marsters returns! Love! Currently I am ignoring rumors/spoilers about the show that are swirling around. But io9.com seems to be hunting them all down, stringing them up, and stuffing them for our amusement, if any of you are looking. Meanwhile: photos from John Barrowman’s wedding (erm, civil partnership) last year. Awww.
Zikes, what I wouldn't do to get one of these framed BSG ads that a bunch of (mostly unappreciative) journalists received recently. Sigh.
OTOH...you might say that this vinyl ad banner I JUST WON ON EBAY, might be a tad better, y/y? :D
Hilarious 1995 Newsweek piece about how the internet will never amount to much. [hat tip to MCN]
So do any of you have an opinion about the web series SANCTUARY? Would I like it? I'm a BSG & FARSCAPE fan, but cannot get into the STARGATE shows. Yet I am intrigued by the concept that Tapping's character is 157 years old. Sounds like a merger of ANGEL and THE X FILES. ;)
