Just read over at TWOP that Bones is being pre-empted for the President's farewell speech.
That wretched man had to get in one more jab.
Last night's NCIS was fun. Well, maybe not fun. Poor Ducky.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Depends on your definition. He played more of a Dr. Kevorkian. More a humanitarian act, to prevent more torture. He was set up by the actual interrogator. Poor Ducky. I really love David McCallum; he's one of my favorite actors on TV right now.

The scene between Ducky and the interrogator was brilliant. You so rarely get to see true, clear-eyed, unrepentant evil on TV. They handled the interaction between Ducky and the sister very well, too. It was good for the rest of the crew to realize there are depths to Ducky that they don't know.
Torri Name-Blank looked fairly emaciated, though.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Does USA rebroadcast current season episodes of House?

Always Anti-fascist!
I think so, but I don't know when. I find them by accident.

I need to figure that out, because Mondays at 8:00 on Fox is... problematic.

Speaking of times, the new CSI:Vegas ep tomorrow will be fifteen minutes late due to our departing president not wanting to give up the spotlight.
Not too sure if that'll apply to the West Coast, but I'm guessing not.

Art Crawl!!!
Apparently in order to make up for not having an episode this week we're getting two episodes of Bones next week. This means I have to drop something. I think it's going to be GA.
USA used to show repeats of House on Fridays at 10 Central. However, I don't know if it's that week's House or two weeks prior.

There were still fun bits amongst all the pain, which is one of the things that I like about the show. The corgies, the reference to Ducky's mom, the reference to how Abby usually deals with these situations, were all great bits of continuity. I also loved how quickly Palmer picked up on Ducky's romantic relationship with the other doctor, when Ducky never really figured out Palmer's secret relationship with the other agent (memefault her name).
