I really need to put the original version of What's My Age Again into the mix for tomorrow, just so that you can know what an amusing cover that really was.
Alas, unless it's waiting for me in the mail when I get home, no new Deadwood this week. I did get Space Above and Beyond, and if I fall sufficiently in love with it I may force you to watch an ep or two. You know one of the major/fan beloved characters is a slightly older, grey haired fellow? I'm just sayin'. And I have to remember to grab The Strange Adventures of Rangergirl for you to read. You can get through it in a night or two, not a long read.
Yeah, I'll have to see what the little princess is willing to eat. She's not that interested in tuna, normally. Also, see above about the acne: will giving her more oily stuff just exacerbate that?
Ah, Due South. The BBC used to show it, and I remember being home a year or so after I moved to London and watching it in my parents' living room. I was laughing at certain bits and my mother, who wasn't watching the TV, because she was through the (huge) arch into the kitchen, was laughing too. Then she said "what are you watching?"
"Due South" I replied.
"But isn't that about Canadians?"
There followed a brief explanation that yes, apparently Canadians could now mock themselves. She then laughed her head off - I think it wasn't the concept that Canadians had a sense of humour, as that it was just so refreshing to watch them send up their own stereotypes instead of relying on others to do it.
Paul Gross is teh hott. Seriously. If you get a chance to catch his new series _Slings And Arrows_ (a BRILLIANT biting satire of the Stratford Festival, and of theatre in general), do-- it's high-larious.
