I'm not sure if I have pimped it before but whoever isn't watching Criminal Minds, give it a chance. I find the writing pretty much consistently to be excellent and while it is a procedural, the characters have depth to them.

They also put work into their bad guys. The last episode for instance choked me up. Great performance by Alex O'Laughlin too, he managed to create a character that didn't remind me at all of Mick St.John.

My TV week

I'm following the ratings of my weekly shows to see how many I'm watching are safe and how many are not. So far:

Monday: The Sarah Connor Chronicles - on a steep decline, incidentally while my enjoyment of it is on the rise, grr

starting next week Heroes - I imagine it would be a safe one

Tuesday: House - should be safe even though it dropped a bit; of course if they want me to keep watching, they better fix...certain things

Wednesday: Bones - continues to do quite well in the ratings, so we have another safer

starting next week Criminal Minds - even its repeats draw 9 Million so safe as houses

Thursday: Supernatural - well, the big Premiere today, hope it does well

Friday: Stargate Atlantis - no point in ratings anymore, thanks for nothing Sci-Fi


I have nothing on Saturdays and Sundays. Hm, not all that much in the ways of watching but there is just little else to catch my interest. I really tried with True Blood but it just does nothing for me.

Musings of a couch potato

Am through with Season 3 of Criminal Minds and hmpf, Cliffhanger. Well my best spoilery guess )

After catching an eppie during the Asylum weekend, I`ve started watching Big Bang Theory. Not a terribly original sitcom but I find it entertaining enough. Sheldon is a tiny bit like early McKay. Maybe that`s why I find him the most amusing figure.
What I didn`t like? Cutesy casting of Sarah Gilbert alongside Johnny Galecki. Yeah, yeah, we all watched "Roseanne" in the 90s, we get it. Kaley Cucuo on the other hand is back to her character from "8 Simple Rules" and that, she can pull off.

Last but not least Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull )

I`m currently catching up on Season 3 of Criminal Minds and heh, first Bobby, now the YED. *g*

Also since I`m watching them slightly out of order, did Paget Brewster do something horrible to the hair and make up department? What`s with the Cleopatra wig? Not a good look on anybody who isn`t an Ancient Egyptian Queen.
