You know me! I'm like, "Go school! It's your birthday!" Or something to that effect.

There was a [legal] free preview available. I gave about 12 minutes of my life to it before I gave up in disgust. Listen to Ginger.

Ginger, I trust your judgment. I really wanted to see the show too. Bah.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
We watched the pilot. Very typical "He doesn't play by the rules!" show.

Could be good, but is kind of not.I went on for some length at LJ if you want to read it, but I could not follow the case of the week. Blair was good, though.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
I'm not sure where the line is for me wrt to non-disabled actors playing disabled characters, but I know Ironside is over that line.

I don't think seeing him in flashback is absolutely essential, actually I think it plays to a bias that injured people need to be thinking about life Before, or whatever, which keeps me from telling my story on TV because I don't have one. I think probably they sold the show, based on Underwood's involvement(which should have been a mixed bag as I love him, but he's made a lot of stuff that hasn't lasted and/or crap.)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I know Ironside is over that line.
How?
