So I received my DVDs of Spaced yesterday (also picked up the Robot Chicken Star Wars dvd), and watched the first episode. I really liked it. Not laugh-out-loud funny yet, but very entertaining. I think I'll be enjoying this a lot.
Spike: We got a history, him and me. Fred: What? Spike: It was a long time ago. He was a young Watcher, fresh out of the academy when we crossed paths. It was a, what-you-call battle of wills and blood was spilled. Vendettas were sworn. It was a whole-- Fred: My God you're so full of crap. Spike: Yeah. Okay.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I stopped in to Barnes & Noble to see if they had it and they did so of course I had to buy it. $60 for 14 episodes! I hope the extras are good.

Yikes, Laga. I pre-ordered it from DeepDiscount and it was only $28!

...then I went over to Fresh & Easy and got a cartload of groceries for the same amount. Fresh & Easy wins.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Well, you haven't yet assessed the nutritional value of your DVDs.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
We just watched the first two episodes of SPced we TiVoed. Wonderfully fun.
I foresee a purchase in our future. Hopefully we can hold off until used ones reach half.com.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.
So I saw a photo of the US "Kath and Kim" and realised that, once again, the American company responsible have completely and utterly missed the fucking point.

Watch me fall down and die with not surprise. I'm a-skeered of it. I think that Molly Shannon will be good, but Selma Blair?

Yeah, especially when you consider this quote from her:
She (Selma Blair) explains, "We're trying to do it on our own terms. But it's a different show. This one has a little more heart than the Australian one.
WTF? Why the does it need "more heart"? What does that mean? If it means they're going to end each episode with a heart-warming *choke* Mother/Daughter moment, then I hope it's cancelled after the first episode airs.
