Vortex, I couldn't decide if it was true or they were yanking his chain. . . or even if it were possible so that they had to be yanking his chain.
L&O: did not like.
I'll just jump in my time machine, go back to the twelfth century, and ask the vampires to postpone their ancient prophesy for a few days while you take in dinner and a show.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I don't understand how they could remove a tattoo and reveal a completely obscured one.
Sumi, what didn't you like about L&O? New detective?

Isn't tattoo removal really skin removal? Just removing layers of skin until you get to the undyed porthion. Theoretically, you could just remove the top layers until you got to the original tattoo.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
L&O: I liked the Jack and Michael stuff a lot. The Pixies T-Shirt chick, although very pretty, was a terrible actress and that spoiled the beginning for me. The dialogue in L&O is so straightforward that you need really good actors to add some depth, and she wasn't one.

That really makes me miss Homicide. Of course, looking at linoleum...
Which of course on Homicide would sound like:
"Who the hell says linoleum anymore?",
"That's a deep question there, Big Man. Existential, in a primitive sort of way."
"Kay, is he calling me stupid? Because a man with his instincts should know I hate that."
"I don't think so, Stanley, huh? But that's not lineoleum, that's pergo. Bloody pergo, but I still recognize it." Etc. etc. They had a whole riff one time about a davino that I still love BECAUSE it was so rambly and pointless. Like the stuff people really say, that is to say, not straightforward.

Maybe I mean less that I didn't like it and more that it was unsettling and because L&O is so cut and dried . . . it's like they raise issues that they might not bother with again.

Bones moving to Thursdays at 7 central midseason and House moving to Mondays prior to 24 midseason.

I guess people must have bitched about losing House and Bones to "extra-special" episodes of American Idol. I know I did.

I think Bones was originally supposed to be moved to Friday midseason (I swear I remember looking at the tentative schedule in the summer and being upset). I'm guessing Sarah Connor's ratings are consigning it to the Friday death slot along with (oh NOES!) Dollhouse.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Unconfirmed internet rumor says that Life is getting the back nine picked up.
