I'm not happy about those one-hour episodes, to tell you the truth. I'd rather The Office stay at the lean 22 minutes/ep, because I found longer episodes sort of flabby this season. (Except A Benihaha Christmas, which I love with unholy passion.)
I think a bunch of Buffistas have show conflicts with the new 9 PM slot (be it Grey's or SPN), and it'd make me sad if they drop The Office.
But cutie-pie Christopher Gorham is on Ugly Betty now
I've caught several episodes of UB through reruns and ... uhm, other measures. It's a very cute show and surprisingly subersive despite the initial cringey premise. It's not an appointment TV for me right now, but once TO moves off the time slot, I'll probably give it a TiVo season pass. And yes, Gorham is adorable in it.
The premise of "Life" doesn't interest me much, but I have an abiding love for Damien Lewis, so I'll probably give it a shot.
Somehow it's a little sad to me that I recognize Adam from so much, and this is the credit they come up with.
I just rewatched
How to Make an American Quilt
and I had completely forgotten that he is in this.
With the government's most precious secrets in Chuck's head, Major John Casey (Adam Baldwin, "My Bodyguard") of the NSA assumes the responsibility of protecting him.
My Bodyguard? THAT's the credit they give him? Not Firefly, not The Inside, or anything else from the past TWENTY YEARS.
I might watch the Kevin McKidd show, just because of my fierce love. But nothing's grabbing me so far.
Yeah, way to make the Bionic Woman sound BO-ring.
My thought exactly about Adam's credit. Sheesh people, catch up!
And Kevin McKidd with what I suspect will be an American accent is just a waste. I want more brogue on my screen.
Not Firefly, not The Inside
My guess is that they wanted to include a show that people actually, y'know, watched.
And by "people" I mean "people who aren't us."
I was so hoping they would cast Richard Anderson as Oscar Goldman. He's probably retired now, though.
Aha! Knowle Rhhhooowwwr. He didn't have much of a personality there though. But then, he was an emotionless killing machine.
