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

Why did the NUMB3RS people think anyone would care about a crappy basketball team? Hopefully they run out of math-related basketballisms this week and we're done with it.

I don't know. Not a good episode this week in general.

They spent too much time on the basketball. All that did is make me think "they only missed by a minute. if Charlie hadn't been so into the basketball, he would have focused more and the guy might have been saved"

The idea of Larry being the flip out coach was kind of funny, but I didn't like the fact that they had to cheat to win.

Yeah, the cheating was just ridiculous.

I enjoyed c.s.i. this week again. (I watched On Demand last night.)

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Me too, Sumi. Fishburne was excellent.

It doesn't make a lot of sense that Sam and Dean didn't lay salt lines to protect their own vulnerable bodies, if nothing (and no one) else.

Oh! And the Angel Maker where the woman continues the mission of her dead love.

There may be more.

There is already a release date (September 22nd) for Castle dvds.

Castle's still fun. Loved the scene where he spins a yarn about the murder. So what if it reminded me of "They made him watch... the only way to deal with that kind of darkness...is to become it" from Bushwhacked, Fillion tells a good scary story.

Why no, I didn't just move this from Cable Drama!

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

Just watched the first two episodes of "Castle" back to back, and I have to admit, I'm fond. It's a fun show.

I'm still liking it. It's not great procedural, it'll never be an L&O, but it's fun. And I could watch/listen to Fillion read a phone book. And I'm loving the give and take between all the detectives. With the "I thought you went commando" and the "it depends on the season" kind of stuff. They've got some good snark developing.
