"I guess we're going to see more of Jackie on FNL".

I take it the actress has a part over there? It really doesn't make much sense of her to leave. I really thought there'd be more exploration of their relationship, but I guess they've hit their peak and have to take a break? The show did kinda run headlong into the "you're with me or you're not" zone right after establishing the "we're both not admitting that we totally lurve each other" zone.

I know that others have been annoyed by Connie before this, but her sudden chicken behavior, and her need to replace Crews when she refuses to have him and also refuses to have her husband as well or so it seems, have finally crossed my threshold.

Of course, I need to rewatch to miss all the little things that other people in my house have no qualms about talking over --and their fans of the show. They can't read the newspaper and recite the interesting factoids and expect me to be able to pay attention when Life is on. This is totally a show where the little moments count. But what ends up happening is I can't hear what they're saying and I can't follow what's going on in the show! It's a lose-lose for me. And then there's the glare of the reading lamp on the TV that I'm still fighting over.

Thank goodness I have weekly plans of second and third rewatches.

I'm starting to get sucked in by Life. I've onlly seen about half of the episodes so far, but I do loves me some Damian Lewis, and the Adam Arkin character as well as Charlie's partner are both excellent people to be by his side. I'm also liking the lieutenant of the squad, and how she relates to both Reese and Crews.

I've loved Damian Lewis since The Forsyte Saga.

He's just wonderful.

I can totally see her character having a short, nasty arc on FNL, breaking somebody's heart and skipping town thus making it easy to bring her back to Life.

I liked that the old non-MD guy was the one with the most correct answers on House (go autodidacts!), and I'm starting to get intrigued by #13. I was merely curious until cut-throat bitch accused her of being mysterious on purpose to interest House. I thought, you've got to be kidding, and it looked to me like #13 thought the same thing...and maybe then thought, hmm, even though I've only been keeping to myself because that's the way I am, maybe this *is* useful in other ways, even if it's only to make cut-throat crazy(ier).

Oh crud, I didn't realize till now that I'd missed last week's CSI. I can't take my eyes off the Grissom-Sara countdown. Family biz be damned, I've got appointment TV tonight!

24: Day 7 promo - looks like Almeida came back wrong.

Don't they always?

Ooh, was that Cherry Jones I saw?!

Possibly. I also noticed Jeffrey Nordling and the guy who played the dad in "That 70s Show."
