I am semi-ashamed to admit that I fast-forwarded through most of the parts of Bionic Woman that did not involve CKR. But it sounds like maybe that might've been the way to go?
I loved last week's Office, though, not least because we've been watching Survivorman on and off, and Steve Carell had that space-filling, my-survival-technique-let-me-show-you-it patter down so incredibly well, filled with ridiculousness the way only Michael could manage... absolutely genius.
the nearness with which Dwight can come to objectively resembling a serial killer while remaining Dwight Schrute continues to be hilarious: he's caring and determined and possessed of a unique skill set, the guy you'd most want to be stuck on a deserted island with right up until the point when he decides you've run out of all other viable food sources. HEEE. God, it's so true. Dwight has always been crazy, but it seems like his personal problems have driven him to a wilder, more desperate, and bizarrely gleeful brand of crazy this year, and it is both terrifying and

I think it probably was. Apparently folding laundry wasn't enough of a distraction.
Dwight has always been crazy, but it seems like his personal problems have driven him to a wilder, more desperate, and bizarrely gleeful brand of crazy this year, and it is both terrifying and awesome to behold.
I do think Angela quieted something in him. Which is a pretty scary thing to contemplate in its own right.
I also loved that Jim, while being utterly horrified at seeing his own future in Michael, didn't translate that to a rejection of Michael--he still sat there and laughed at Michael's goofy jokes and kind of embraced the insanity for a few minutes.
Jim's capacity for denial is pretty large, but I don't think it's that large, and I think he sees this as his own problem to deal with, and something that maybe gives him more kinship with Michael than he really knows what to do with.
The thing with Jaime is that she seems only marginally more mature than her teenaged sister. I ended up fast-forwarding through the episode like brynnmck. The interaction between her and CIA guy (like you, I didn't care enough to learn his name) just made me squirm uncomfortably.

The sister seems to have more common sense half the time, too, which is weird since the writers are positioning her as a wild child who is learning the Important Lessons About Family and Togetherness.
I think a re-watch of Angel is an excellent idea. Of course I already did that a couple of months ago; however, a Buffy re-watch would not be a bad idea at all.
I haven't seen Angel since Season 5 was airing live, and I think I'd be seeing it through somewhat different eyes in a second go-round, and that's part of what interests me about seeing it again.
I know some day I will come back to Buffy and get a lot of pleasure out of re-watching it, but I'm not there yet. I burned out rather badly the first time around.
I stopped watching Bionic Woman a few weeks ago, but...The Rules? Really? As a bookseller, I'm qualified to say that that book is so very, very over. Hee. Something like He's Just Not That Into You would at least be from this decade!
