I have the new Target ad song in head... the "we got that" song. Why do I not have TiVo?

I would really like S60 to be cancelled so I can stop watching it. It's not even a love/hate relationship at this point, it's an unhealthy-fascination/hate relationship.

Perzactly, plus it's on between HEROES and TDS/TCR (of course, what's my excuse for last night when TDS/TCR are in re-runs?), so it kills the hour I might otherwise give up, set up to tape TDS/TCR and go to bed.

However, I could also use that hour to watch, say, the DEADWOOD eps I'm trying to catch up on. Or even the DR. WHO I've taped, but noooooo!

Sorkin either needs to get back on the shrooms or give them up; I'm not sure which.

I'm done with S60 after last night. That was very stupid and bad, and after about halfway through, I stopped really paying attention to it anyway.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Heh.

I was going to weigh in on Studio 60, but bon bon just nailed every problem I had with the show last night.

AmyLiz, regarding:

It's sharp dialogue without meaning, most of the time.

Without going into spoilers, I will say in a roundabout way, I think my problem with last night's show was it felt like everything had meaning. Which just felt ponderous. Every episode feels like it's striving to be something more, yet I find myself enjoying little asides from Matt or his wry reactions to things much more than the big moments.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Now I can't decide if I should bother watching Studio 60 or not. If it's going to get canceled, I guess I might as well?

CAKESICLE, CAKESICLE, THE WORD HAS LOST ALL MEANING.

...or something like that, right? I love half-knowing about inside jokes I wasn't even inside of.
