Whatever, man -- no take backs! You loooooooove Tim Daly!!

Ok, I can live with this. Especially in Eyes. I was just about as sad to see that go as I was with Drive. Ok, not quite Drive, but definitely Wonderfalls.

I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore

am i the only one who liked what could possibly become the Grey's spinoff? in fact, i liked more of those characters than i do the ones on Grey's. Tim Daly is hot, for the record.

You are not alone, tiggy. I'm not in love with the spin off, but definitely intrigued. And I like the GA characters, but they've been annoying me of late.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I just wish we had more bad-ass Addison, and less quirky losing-her-shit Addison.

Art Crawl!!!

I like the actors but I felt like the dialogue let them down.

I'm kind of excited about Traveler. (It was promoed QUITE often during the ESPN/ESPN2 coverage of Derby Day.)

it's a really good pilot. probably one of my favorites that i watched over the summer. not sure it could sustain more than one season(what does these days?), but i remember thinking that about Prison Break too.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

sorry tiggy, I really didn't like what might be Addison's show. Weak women characters, predictable storylines, blatant misuse of Tim Daly - man, that's not a show I think I want to watch again.

It might be different if Marti Noxon weren't the showrunner or if I had more faith in the Grey's writers. I'm irritated at what Christina has become and how Bailey really has taken a backburner to other characters. It was nice to see different characters than the Grey's characters, but (at least for me) that's just another indication of how far GA has fallen.

c.s.i. - I watched On Demand and really enjoyed the episode up until the end: are we really to believe that GRISSOM is the miniature killer?

Sports Night Fans: If you haven't been watching Six Degrees on the ABC website watch the episode that they posted on Friday (May 4th) - it's Josh Charles-eriffic.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

sumi- I have heard people say that they think Sara is the miniture killer based on the end, although that makes not so much sense to me. I have to say I am not in the best place to judge, as I currently watch CSI by fast forwarding to see if there are any Grissom/Sara scenes. I watched the last two years of the West Wing this way as well, and am only now getting to watching the episodes. I think perhaps my early exposure to soap operas has warped me for nromal TV watching, although at the same time, GA annoys me for being too much about romantic involvement!
