Art Crawl!!!

DVR data pushes up SoA ratings:

With the Live +7 ratings factored in from Nielsen Media Research on a multi-telecast basis, Sons of Anarchy delivered a weekly average audience of 5.83 million total viewers (jumping 16% vs. the Live numbers) and 3.9 million Adults 18-49 (up 18% vs. the Live numbers), the highest ratings of any new series on FX since the network's hit series Rescue Me, which debuted in 2004. On a first-run basis the series averaged 2.6 million total viewers and 1.75 million Adults 18-49.

And the press release says that they start filming season two in the Spring.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

I was a little afraid they had used up all of the good music in the pilot, though.

I hope you caught CK's own "More Than I Deserve" playing during the kissing scene... not that it necessarily qualifies as good music.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

So, Showtime sent my paper a box of cookies, each cookie having a still of a Showtime show on it. I didn't see "Dexter" or the "L Word," so I imagine someone got to them before me.

The first one I noticed was a "This American Life" cookie, but I couldn't bring myself to eat Ira Glass.

I instead ate Billie Piper.

I'm not proud.

I'd be holding out for the Captain Jack cookie, myself.
