Art Crawl!!!

GA: It was odd hearing the GA cadences from non-GA characters. Also, oddly my cousin had beagles named Pete and Tillie.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

Oh, come on -- like Angela kissing Hodges and then turning down his proposal wasn't annoying.

I didn't think it was! I think because we lost last week's episode, we didn't get that same sense of continuity, but I could see that they were making it interesting. And [promo pics spoiler] since I know how it turns out, I'm content to go along for the ride.

Gilmore Girls is over.

Huh. For some reason I'd been thinking this entire season that it had been cancelled (for the end of this season) at the start of the season. So I've been thinking it's the last one the whole time anyway. Easier to let go, anyhow.

Angela kind of laughed and said, "Oh, that took?" and started talking about fire dances and Tahiti, I think it was.) So there may actually be a husband kicking around out there somewhere. Not that Hodgins couldn't afford the lawyers to track him down and divorce him.

No, I think it has less to do with that and more to do with the dude from New Mexico who died while she was staying with him. She would only give him three weeks a year, even though she loved him and he wanted more; for whatever reason she couldn't settle down, which is part of the reason she was hesitant to get into a new serious-type relationship with Jack. So I think some of that reservation is present in her refusals--she wants some kind of certainty that she's making the right choice (where, in her mind, she should have made the right choice years ago with NM dude, but can't because he's dead) which manifests itself in this feeling she's talking about. I have faith that Jack will get it right, though. They're too awesome together.

Watch for Alexis Biedel to bomb playing the world's tiniest hooker next year to "free herself" from her Rory image.

Watch for Alexis Biedel to bomb playing the world's tiniest hooker next year to "free herself" from her Rory image.

She already played a hooker in Sin City.

They ask to see his FBI ID and he gives some excuse, at which point one of them pulls out HER FBI ID and says "does it look like this?" and the other two do the same. He sort of sputters and fades off into the crowd.

see, that would never actually happen in DC. First, no one would be impressed by the guy being the FBI, and there's too much chance that exactly what happened would happen!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Grey's Anatomy: I'm not that psyched so far about anyone on the Addison show, except Addison, but my love of Kate Walsh grows.

Edit: I might take that back about Tim Daly, between the accupuncture and "I'm going to kiss you with tongue," because it's funny when grownups say things like that.

I adore Tim Daly. I liked him better on Eyes than here. But this was still nice.

eta: Ok, I don't adore Tim Daly. But I like him a lot when he's in a well-written show.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I went to college with Tim Daly (she says proudly, as she does EVERY TIME his name comes up). Directed him in a couple of shows and have the distinction of being one of the few women at Bennington who did not sleep with him. He's incredibly talented and a wonderful guy.

I miss Eyes. That was an excellent show. Did they ever release the other shows?
