Huh, so I'd been seeing promos for that new "Don't Trust the B in Apt 23", and it seemed interesting enough, particularly since James Van Der Beek was playing himself. But, I guess since Traffic Light is dunzo, my cousin's husband is producing that now. And since it comes on right after Modern Family, I have no excuse not to support the family and watch it. I mean, what else am I going to do during that half hour between Modern Family, and whatever show comes on at 10pm (Psych, SVU, Southpark)

But the "B" is played by Krysten Ritter (VM's Gia Goodman, though you may remember her as Lucy on Gilmore Girls, or as gothy landlord lady on Breaking Bad, or chick flicks 27 Dresses and Confessions of a Shopaholic) who I was always strangely attracted to. But its funny, because all the commercials focus on her or the Beek, but from the show description it sounds like Dreama Walker (Gossip Girl's Hazel, although you may know her as one of Clint Eastwood's A-hole grandkids in Gran Torino) is the other major character. FYI, she was my next favorite of Blair's minions after Penelope on GG S1.

Cool, just caught the trailer for BSG: Blood and Chrome, which takes place after Caprica but before BSG. Basically, it follows young Adama during the first Cylon war. Alas, given the bad taste left in many fans mouths by the BSG luddite BS ending, and the failure of Caprica, this show is being demoted to a webseries.

Which kinda sucks, because this looks totally bad-ass! I mean, its the first Cylon war, so gigantic space battles, humans fighting hulking cylon death machines. I watched Caprica all the way through, and while I thought it was passable entertainment, it was kinda boring. Its like gee, I wonder what people would rather see, space dogfights and soldiers fighting robots, or an hour of boring religious, social, and political commentary? Caprica even had the friggin Matrix in it, and they squandered that potential! I'm sure if you had more of Zoe kicking ass in there (particularly when she started becoming god there), more people would've tuned in.

Tried the dorito shell tacos at taco bell. They're quite messy. I dunno how I feel about my hands being caked in doritos dust after eating these.

TV commentary:

Alcatraz- Heh, I don't know why I still get a kick out of it whenever they show previous 63s they recaptured just sitting in their cells (or just hanging around in the background in the past). Like I don't know what SAG rules are, but since they don't speak, how much do they actually get paid? Well, not as much as a role with a line, I'm sure, but I guess prolly a decent amount for just standing around somewhere for a minute.

What I am curious about is who they decide to use for those scenes? Well, the only two I recognize is the first guy and sniper guy, and I guess in the current time they showed one other guy in this ep. Are those the only actors they could get back, or are those the only ones they were able to take alive?

One Tree Hill- Eh, after catching last week's ep, I wanted to see how things turned out, so I'm watching it right now. Heh, are they going to pull a DC here? Julian finally thinks he has the perfect idea for his soundstage after re-reading "A Kindness of Ravens". He realizes that while it didn't work as a movie, it might work as a TV show. So just like Dawson created Dawson's Creek on the show, is Julian going to create OTH?
