Jayne ,'Jaynestown'
[NAFDA] This is where we talk about the show! Anything that's aired in the US (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though -- if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.
The only other shows I watch are things that occasionally pop up on PBS, the Discovery Channel, and History. Strangely enough, the ads are a big element in these decisions. It's like not wanting to go to a nice restaurant because the neighborhood is so damned sleazy. And taping for later means I'd have to find time later. I've tried "Tru Calling," and, well ...
With every new reality show announced, I weep more for the lost brain cells of my nation.
That's all right, connie. I tried 24 and only made it through half the first season. And I thought it was a good show. Only it started lagging badly after about 5 eps and the daughter frustrated me beyond belief. Have the killed her off yet? If not, they need to hire Tim to fix things. Then I could forgive them for cancelling WF.
I feel guilty for JoA. And I know I should.
I mean, c'mon, that show just has genuinely BAD music, if nothing else.
But I watch it anyway. Sucker for high school dramas from the kids' perspectives.
(Freaks and Geeks and My So-Called Life I will mourn 'til the end of my days.)
t on-topic Oh, and, uh, that show called Angel? Love it. Vampires with souls are kewl!!!1!!!!!1!!1!

When has Tim ever killed off a character that the audience wanted to die? (Seriously, the reason Kim is still alive is because everyone wants her to die. She's written and acted to be the character you want bad things to happen to. It's perversely satisfying that she just. won't. die.)
I'm tired of no longer being the prime demographic. Where are the shows where the sexy 40-something gets the hot guy?
Chloe is the one on 24 that cracks me up. She's got the personality of a wasp, and she's not good looking (in a TV sense), so she really just exists because of her mad skillz.
JM's normal accent drives me nuts. He uses all these "yeah, yeahs" and "uhms" when he can't get his thoughts together, which is frequently. So then he takes off speaking a mile and minute with the yeah-yeah thrown in willy-nilly. As a result, he babbles.
He talks much better when speaking at conventions. I have no idea why JM gets so hyperactive on talk shows.

Competition for air time. IJS.
Early reports say TC and Arrested Development have both been renewed.
Tru Calling?!
Is there no justice?!!
Well, obviously the big mistake Tim made was not setting the entire credits sequence of Wonderfalls to Jaye running endlessly wearing no bra. IJS.

I think the actress is OK, it's just an AWFUL part. I can't think of ANYONE who could redeem some of the stupidity that is Kim Bauer. Although it would be fun to watch Judi Densch try.
