Connie! Not a network drama show, but just to let you know, I was able to tape the Deadliest Catch marathon on Monday, and am also taping the captains-swapping-stories miniseries, "After the Catch," that started last night. It'll end up being three tapes total--I'll let you know as soon as the season's over and I can ship them out to you.

Yay, tapes!
Is anyone else watching Traveler?
Forgot all about it. Is this the second ep or have I missed some? The pilot was entertaining enough.
They're showing the pilot and the next ep.
I DVR'd Traveler just in case it was good. Is it good?
I enjoyed it.
Mmmm, House. Surprisingly satisfying conclusion to a rocky third season.
I have this theory that the non-medical drama in House is at its best when it's internal--something happening between the main cast members; and at its worst when the drama is generated by external forces--Vogler and Tritter and so forth.
Though I have to wonder how the internal drama will play out with three cast members resigned/fired. I am almost with the idea that it would work to get a new team in, but I worry that it will be one of those fake-outs--oh no, wait! The real cast is back!
My love for Chase, like, quintupled. I really have grown to like him a lot more over the last five episodes or so, and he's shown surprising depth. (Not to mention his ridiculous hotness at the diner. Yowza.)
I just--I can't completely reconcile this with House making stand-in team on the plane from a few episodes ago. Yes, okay, he hates change. But even hating change, he still went out of his way to create a scenario that represented the same people he uses, and I wonder how well he will operate with a new team to deal with. If he gets a new team.
Either way, I'm interested enough to watch the fourth season. Which is something I wasn't too sure on during the whole Tritter thing.
I missed Traveler this week due to family stuff, but I expect the prospect of looking at Matthew Bomer will at least get me to tape it temporarily.
Matthew Bomer
It's like someone thought one Sean Maher wasn't enough.
