Early: So is it still her room when it's empty? Does the room, the thing, have purpose? Or do we -- what's the word? Simon: I really can't help you. Early: The plan is to take your sister. Get the reward, which is substantial. 'Imbue.' That's the word.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

BTW, Martha's sister Tish (okay, the actress that plays Tish) was in Miss Marple this week (Ordeal by Innocence) - it also featured Richard Armitage and that red-headed guy from Keen Eddie.

And Burn Gorman from Torchwood!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I'm fairly sure every British actor shows up on either Poirot or Miss Marple eventually.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Every week it becomes more apparent that Dead Zone is short money. I'm still a week behind, but the Visa ad in Drift sprained my eyeroll muscles.

As for 4400, I'm still snickering at the Steve Jobs jab. They really made that Ubient (??) guy as Bill Gates as possible. I think he was even married to a Melissa.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

In the few episodes of Poirot or Miss Marple I've seen, I've recognized Paul McGann, the guy who played Stuart on QaF UK and McNulty on The Wire, and Sophia Myles.

Let's not forget the lovely Jane Seymour. I like that they get quality actors, even for small roles.

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"

I think he was even married to a Melissa

I saw that too and it had to be intentional.

I know its supposed to be a nice thing for Maya, but all the dead people roaming around a little park is just creepy. When one of the P+ was bringing Lily back, it took all his concentration. So is this another P+ that is just better at it and can let it run on its own? Also aren't the holograms/ghosts confused and bored when their loved one isn't around? I don't like this story line. It is ooging me out.

I think that Maya's trips to visit her dead family have to wind up with badness of some sort.

OK - what show is this with Maya and holographic ghosts? Torchwood?
