I liked Studio 60 a lot, aurelia (and Abi), though it also felt like Sorkin was warming up.
Reynolds, I'm a dangerous-minded man on a ship loaded with hurt. Now, why you got me chatting with your peons?

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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
On NUMB3RS, I keep thinking that Lou Diamond Philips is going to turn evil. I'm not sure why.
Judging from the CBS innertube page, I also missed an episode of The Unit. I need to check TiVo again.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
That would be fun too.

Aha. The Unit's on at the same time as Eureka. I'll catch it in two more weeks then. Not even willing to record a later hour of Colin. It wouldn't be fitting.

This is true, ita.
Also, a mild course of pain pills all day plus one pretty strong drink = whee.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
though it also felt like Sorkin was warming up
That's not so surprising, though. I'm really looking forward to these guys becoming distinct characters and not just Sorkin and Schlamme analogues. I wouldn't expect that to happen in one episode.
I think there has only been one ep of The Unit so far this season. All you've really missed is that all of our main characters survived the cliffhanger attack, the Brown's baby has been born and Mack and wife decided to stay .

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
I'm not sure why.
It's the smirk.

Watching the CBS.com The Unit now. This is like crack. Good call on their part, even if they don't go past season premieres.
It's the smirk.
True. Very smirky.

I probably should've eaten something other than pop tarts and peanut-butter M&Ms today.

You still could.
