How did your brain even learn human speech? I'm just so curious.

Looks like they're airing the Bones pilot on Friday night, for those who want it check it out from the beginning. Don't know if they're going to keep rerunning it or not.

Oh god there's no way I could take on something more. I'm already way too invested in the procedurals I currently watch.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I might disagree a tad with Theo there. I actually gave up Without a Trace several months ago and I have no regrets. I watched it from the first ep and I found the show becoming a bit too depressing. Seeing as how I watch a non-stop block of crime, this may be saying a lot. I gave up Cold Case for similar reasons.

I think that Fox does intend to run Bones repeats on Fridays for a while. I'm not sure while.
I gave up WAT for BSG - and then DF and now Blood Ties.
But now that I only have Blood Ties - I can watch Cold Case again.
Oh and there is some teeny tiny minor hope for Black Donnellys . . . apparently, if NBCs pilots suck and the streamed shows and downloads from itunes do well, they may bring it back. Minor hope.
Tonight: we can talk GA in here!
Also er! And I imagine some will be chatting about c.s.i. -- although it is a repeat.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
So...seriously, WTF is up with 24 this season? Did someone from the network tell them they needed more standalones? Because normally by this time in the day, they've at least got some momentum going.
Vice President Evilface is boring me to tears. Chloe's being given nothing to do. Jack's gone rogue again, and I don't care. It's all wrong.

I know. Having the adrenaline rush of Drive right before 24 is really showing up all of 24s faults.

I'm just glad Heroes is coming back next week so I'll have something else in that timeslot.

What I want to know is did President Logan bleed to death and what's happening with his ex and Aaron.

I'm not sure how I feel about FNL moving to Fridays.
Perhaps this will make people remember when it's on!

I'm glad to know that I need not regret giving up on it a few episodes back--except, of course, for the fact that because I wasn't watching FOX I forgot to start watching Drive.
