I just realized that I never made a single journal entry in September. My bad. I've been here, just not too visible. But I thought I'd check in now

Hey. I used to qualify my "complaints" as being not that big in the scheme of things, but you know, all that matters really is your scheme of things. Yes, there are people who are homeless and struggling, but it doesn't change that you are dealing with very real hardships yourself.
That said... perspective is good, too. :D
I liked Commander in Chief, largely due to Geena Davis. Its nice to see Kyle Secor again, because I loved Homicide so very much. My favorite new show is "Threshold." I'm really liking both the stories and the characters. I thought about "X-files," too. "Nightstalker" was a disappointment to me, though it's not the worst new thing I've seen, so I might give it another chance. (I adore the original... which was the inspiration for Maggie Quinn, the heroine of "Prom Dates"... so I had high expectations.)
I also like "Bones" which comes on opposite NCIS, and right before "House," another great show. Tuesdays takes coordination of the DVR. And of course "Lost." Is that my fault? :D
I was JUST getting into "Firefly" when they canceled it. Adam Baldwin is just SO cool as Jayne. Joss must love him. After Firefly got cancelled, he showed up on "Angel" for a very brief stint, which was also very cool. Boreanaz is, of course, why I'm giving "Bones" a try. The premise is cool, the series needs to find its rhythm a bit.
"House" is great because of Hugh Laurie. Period. His character is just dreadful, and I know I'd hate him if I ever met him, but geez, I love watching him. I can't believe that's the same actor that played the foofy Prince of Wales in Black Adder.
And yeah, I love Sawyer. Which is weird, because usually I like the more boy scouty characters, but Jack can be so self-righteous. My FAVORITE character though, is Locke.
Yeah, Locke is a mystery wrapped in an enigma. He keeps your interest, no doubt. I feel sorry for Jack sometimes. He's the de facto leader, but he sure doesn't want the job. And my sister is infatuated with Sayid. I have to admit, so am I. His gentle nature is so at odds with what we know he's capable of doing. And Kate even keeps me watching--she's another character who has a lot of layers.
Adam Baldwin is da bomb...::grin:: I've always liked him, ever since I first saw him in "My Bodyguard." I wish his career would take a real turn for the better. He's never QUITE made a breakthrough, and I think he deserves it. Maybe "Serenity" will help.
I really like the man of science/man of faith dichotomy between Locke and Jack. Its neat when you see the line being drawn between two decent people with different philosophies. I like Sayid a lot, too, and Kate. There's just some really interesting characters on that show.
Adam Baldwin has always seemed poised for a breakout, but never really there. He's got kind of a niche in the offbeat SF genre.
