You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

bt, sj's right, carrying in is no problem, and even sending isn't a problem as long as you're organised enough to have gotten a 'prior notice' code number from US Food & Drug/customs which you can do via the internet. Some instructions are here.

Well, ok then. I'll clear a spot in the pantry. Thanks again.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.

ah shit! Channel 7 have nothing to fear. They've retained their title as Utter Bastards! I haven't been online since last weekend and so missed the warning. *sigh*

eta: at least they didn't thoroughly insult us by replacing Angel with another reality TV show. According to ebroadcast.com.au, the new show is:

THE L WORD

New and original series depicting the lives of a group of Los Angeles lesbians and their friends. Meet Jenny - an Iowa native, her fiancee Tim - a women's swim coach, their neighbours - partners Bette and Tina, and their friends - Shane, Dana, Alice, and Kit as they make their way through life in West Hollywood. Starring MIA KIRSHNER, JENNIFER BEALS, LAUREL HOLLOMAN, ERIC MABIUS, KATHERINE MOENNIG, ERIN DANIELS, LEISHA HAILEY, PAM GRIER and KARINA LOMBARD.

jimi, there are more than a few buffistas who really like The L Word. I've seen one or two and thought it was enjoyable. I haven't been able to remember to turn it on though.

jimi, does Australian tv edit for content? Cause The L Word is, shall we say, extermely explicit on a number of levels.

Ah, please, the L Word is practically all straight sex. Plus, the lesbians are dumb. Hmph.

Errr. I just said explicit - which, as compared to Angel, it is. Whether it's less gay or not is a whole 'nother discussion.

Heh. I'm just bitter, Frankenbuddha. It's not the show I'd hoped it would be. There need to be more hot butch women on it. :)

To every idea a shelf...

It surprises me that Channel 7 have picked it up, then. They're probably the most conservative network after Channel 9.

Anyway, $10 says they run it for two weeks then yank it off before it has a chance to build an audience. Then they replace it with Who Wants To Marry a Penguin Farmer In Guam?.

On Angel: it's moments like the end of last night's episode that make me glad I stopped being a spoiler ho. That was some quality shock and awe.

Are all the states synchronised this year? All on Thursday nights, all up to the ninth episode of the season?
