True Blood has the longest freakin' opening credits I've ever seen! Thank god for Tivo and dvds. I really enjoy the show, though. It's been so long since I read the first book that I forgot who did it. I found the dvds on sale at Target a few days ago and am looking forward for the start of season two tomorrow night. Michelle Forbes is the Maenad! Outstanding cast. The pretty young guy who plays Jason is from Australia and has been on several of the classic Aussie shows such as Water Rats and A Country Practice. He probably knows Claudia. The actress who played Dawn is going to play Dejah Thoris in the ERB/John Carter/Mars stories movie that's being made. Terry is played by the actor who played Zach (Lane's husband) on Gilmore Girls. I knew he looked familiar!
Nurse Jackie so far reads as 'female House with sex', but I love her already. Like House, she's a chronic pain patient-cum-drug addict who does and says what we in the medical community wish we could, forging a signature on an organ donor card after a young, healthy man is killed, flushing the ear of a man who sliced up a hooker. Unlike House, she's not only intellectually involved: she really cares about her patients. And,unlike House, she's sleeping with the pharmacist to get her Vicodin. It just wouldn't be HBO with out the sex.
ION, three baby robins in the nest!! \o/
Chessie got into a bag of dog food left out by SH a couple of days ago. She looked like a sausage with legs by the time she finished and pooped every time she went out for about 24 hours. It was pretty darned funny.
No beer so I've opened a bottle of wine. Life is good. *g*
