Project Runway: When Heidi asked Kayne where he was going in that outfit, he should have said, "Elton John's Rodeo." Because seriously.
Oh my god. What can it be? We're all doomed! Who's flying this thing!? Oh right, that would be me. Back to work.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Speaking of OJ-inspired TV, did anyone else here ever watch Science Court? It was a hilarious cartoon where science went on trial? Like 10 years ago?
Occasionally. Paula Poundstone, same tech as Dr. Katz and Home Movies.
I have to agree with the innie and outie on PR, even though there was a serious jackass-off b/w Jeffrey and Angela.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Kristen, HA! The other PR thing that made me laugh was that Laura said she was making something "different from what they've seen from her before." Um. OK, it was a more intricate construction, but it was totally her same sillhouette. Not that there's anything wrong with that.
I am so glad someone else knows Science Court. I mentioned it at work yesterday, and my coworker just looked at me.
Re: Justice, my impression of that kind of media whore law firm is that they do take on the flashy cases pro bono and make their money with quieter cases.

In future eps
I totally agree with what you said in white font. There's a lot of potential with the concept, but it could go one-note really easily.
Loving SpyDaddy - hope the show takes off so he can keep being snarky and cynical on my TV every week. And hopefully they'll give Eamonn Walker a bit more to do in future eps.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Okay, either Justice has been significantly recut from the godawful pilot I saw a few months ago, or else you all are smoking the good crack. My SpyDaddy love was not nearly strong enough to overcome the weird overlit hyperactive camerawork.

There was weird hyperactive camerawork, but I don't watch TV closely enough for that to necessarily bother me.

I noticed, but it didn't bother me any more than it does in other shows (the WONDERFALLS pilot being an example where I thought things were too damn busy, but enjoyed it anyway). I'd rather have weird and hyperactive than grainy/shakey.

Art Crawl!!!
I watched the beginning of it and seriously? I love Spy!Daddy but wasn't too into the thing.
Maybe I'll give it another try.

vanguard of the socialist Hollywood liberal homosexualist agenda
I wasn't too wild about the constant in-show banners telling you where in the trial it is. Of course, they could get away with dropping them after a few episodes, once people get the hang of it.
My friend K and I liked the female lawyer, and SpyDaddy was snarky. But they can't just be a "House with lawyers," or it'll get old fast.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
A harsh critique of the Dog Whisperer.
The notion of the “alpha pack leader” dominating all other pack members is derived from studies of captive packs of unrelated wolves and thus bears no relationship to the social structure of natural packs, according to L. David Mech, one of the world’s leading wolf experts. In the wild, the alpha wolves are merely the breeding pair, and the pack is generally comprised of their juvenile offspring and pups.
“The typical wolf pack,” Dr. Mech wrote in The Canadian Journal of Zoology in 1999, “is a family, with the adult parents guiding the activities of a group in a division-of-labor system.” In a natural wolf pack, “dominance contests with other wolves are rare, if they exist at all,” he writes.
