Vonnie, Hec and I have been repeating that line to each other all week. That, and "This is kidnapping. Ya gotta pay retail." I liked him well enough in Wings, but damn! Dude has timing. And the cheerfully wry snarkitude. And the scary staredown between (whitefonted because I know there are a couple of people who've taped/TiVo'd but not yet seen it) NotDead!Jeff and the Double Agent: "A piece of my HEAD on my living room floor. Your gun in my MOUTH. Point. Taken." And AJ Langer, with a possibly not-so-consistent character, but such a consistently good, intelligent, quirky actor (though they've got to be Scully-boxing the hell out of her -- Tim Daly's medium-tall, but I think she's barely SMG-sized).

To totally steal Allyson's metaphor, I'm not shaving my legs yet for Eyes, but we're definitely flirty. It's fun, I'm not taking it seriously, we're moving slow. It's my FB show.

I have much love for Deadwood, although it's been giving me these increasingly irresitible impulses to yell "shut yer fucking gob, ya cocksucker!" to people who annoy me at work.

I've never seen Deadwood, and yet I fight the urge to do this daily.

If it weren't my husband's show (he watches my stuff with me), I would SO kick Desperate Housewives to the curb.

After this week's episode, I hate all the characters.

I kicked Desperate Housewives to the curb after about the second episode, when I realized the voiceover wasn't going away. It makes me twitch.

I know I am missing something.

If it weren't my husband's show (he watches my stuff with me)

Is this pretty common? I lent a co-worker some DVDs, and he didn't watch them for a long time because his boyfriend wasn't interested in them. And the BF got a bit pissy if he watched stuff without him, so it waited for alone moments like business trips.

Strikes me as weird (but then, much relationship stuff does) especially in a multi-TV home.

Is this pretty common?

Probably. My husband watches a bunch of stuff only because I got him started on it. He was also the one interested in Stargate initially, although the 4-hour rerun block on Mondays was the real tipping point.

Some shows of mine he has no interest in, like Alias or Joan of Arcadia, and I usually find time to watch those without him.

Strikes me as weird, but it's a Thing. He likes to have us watch TV together.

Empress, have you heard the song "Ford Econoline"?

"But his big mistake was in buyin' her that Ford Econoline."

But I'll scratch it iffen you'd like.

Not at all! Like there isn't anyone who knows that. Em gets "You Are My Sunshine", "Puff", "Yesterday", "What's Up, Pussycat"(with Emeline subbed in for Pussycat), and "Leaving On A Jetplane".
