To commemorate a past event, you kill and eat an animal. It's a ritual sacrifice, with pie.

Oh, god, that wasn't Michelle Michele in the House Previews was it? Because while Ted McGinley has a more *famous* Jump The Shark rep, personally, I'd give it to Ms. Michele for stinking up Homicide and ER, and probably something else with her whole one expression thing.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

It's a very pretty expression?

Yeah, she's pretty. But she's also the black Elisabeth Rohm. Like I see her and wonder whose niece and/or mistress she is that she gets the jobs and someone talented still has to serve up capucchino.

Also, it's not a good sign for the show that she is appearing. Like the human equivalent of a bad lumbar puncture. Not that I know what happened yesterday as I missed half of it.

I wondered if it was MM, too; guess it is.

The patient - wasn't that the actor from thirtysomething who played Billy? Yup, it was him: [link] Miles Dentrell/David Clennon was on Gray's Anatomy and he looked like hell. I wonder if it was all make up or if he really is that gaunt and sick looking. I thought I saw Polly Draper on something recently, too. Nope, not her. I loved that show and can't believe it's still not available on DVD.

Mirror syndrome was just about the best device ever to tell us about people's backstories without doing flashbacks. Really clever. They're being very mysterious about #13. I loved the Cuddy-House and House-Wilson domination-off.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

The patient on last night's House was Frank Whaley, who played young Moonlight Graham in Field of Dreams. [link]

I loved the Cuddy-House and House-Wilson domination-off.

And House explaining away Wilson winning the dom-off by saying a doctor in charge of an operating room is always the most powerful person in the room. And Wilson not buying it.

Criminal Minds: Did anyone else find the BAU unit passing out candy at the end of the episode kind of creepy?

Art Crawl!!!

Yes.

I was really looking forward to having Joe Mantegna join the cast but this episode just wasn't that great.

Meanwhile, I really enjoyed Life. I liked that Charlie and Dani and Charlie's earlier partner were all working together at the end.
