A quick aside on Bell's Palsy--Jamey Sheridan (the first Lt. on L&O:CI as well as Randall Flagg in The Stand) also has it, and that's why he was wearing an eyepatch during some episodes of L&O:CI (they gave the disease to his character as well).
I'm not sure how old he is, but I heard him use the word 'newfangled' one time, so he's gotta be pretty far gone.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
The scene in the copy room was, like, the sweetest thing I have EVER seen.
Hee! Yep. Ugly Betty is sometimes a bit OTT for me, but when it works, it works great.

A friend of mine back home has it. It kinda drags one side of her face down. Sometimes it's better than others.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Huh. I didn't realize that Alexis was in the video for George Harrison's "I Got My Mind Set On You".

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
The episode where Marc came out to his bitch of a mom made me just cry and cry.
Oh yeah, that scene was wrenching. (Although as a friend commented, "I highly doubt Patti LuPone has a hard time recognizing a gay man when she sees one.")
"I was hoping you'd come to my wedding, so you could be my 'something old'."
Ha! That was fantastic.

Totally. And I even love the OTT-ness, because to me that makes it truer to its telenovela roots. Also, I've realized, the show really appeals to my inner (or not-so-inner) fag hag, and so the OTT-ness works in that context too.

HIMYM's ratings were down a bit. Wah.
HIMYM is up against Chuck.
I wish the networks would learn from the upstart cable companies and start putting reruns in the middle of the night so we single-Tivo people can capture them later.
At least HIMYM does summer reruns.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
The Office
I'm rewatching S3 and I noticed something: When Jim came back from Stamford, he stopped calling Pam "Beasley" and started calling her Pam, and when he started dating whatsherface, he stopped calling her whatsherface and started calling her "Fillipilli" or whatever.
Interesting switch, I think. Now I need for disc 4 to hurry and get to my house so I can watch the remainder of the season and see if he switches back.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
The plot with Gael was slightly distracting as it pings pretty close to the latin rebound lover for Rachel on Friends (Paolo?) that caused Ross to have big pangs of resentment and jealousy.
That's funny, because I didn't even think of that, but I was comparing it to middle-era Friends with the heavy guest stars.

HIMYM is up against Chuck.
Chuck also didn't do great. If it falls next week it'll be gone pretty quick, methinks (Chuck that is, not HIMYM).
Apparently the US version of The IT Crowd for NBC may have been killed off before it went into full production. The second series of the UK version has been pretty good, IMHO.
