Aw, shucks, really? Although offering smoochies while talking about Deadwood could be a scenario where your mouth writes checks other parts can't cash.(But I can't do that...you take krav with my wife, right?) Maybe the Lovejoy moment was a lot like watching Major Dad be super-evil and try to destroy a community? Because that was kinda "No way!" about Deadwood for me.Well, that and my watching a Western. But then I also intended to watch House to mock Laurie's crip impression. Which I could not manage; he's too good at it, and the writers don't usually have him super-mobile for his situation, but I and my tens of readers were on the alert.

Yeah, Laurie makes House seem like a much more interesting character than he's written to be. House has had a few really excellent episodes, so I will keep watching in the hopes that the next one will be one of those.

I would watch Hugh Laurie read the phone book every week, and I agree with -t that there has been some excellent episodes.

And he can do (what seems like) most of the shit that actors put on their resumes but never seem to get really asked for. like juggling.

But I swear, watching Laurie on House is like the equivalent of watching one of the Pythons play, oh, say Buntz on Hill Street Blues (not that the shows are remotely comparable). It just doesn't compute on a certain level. Yet he pulls it off.

Actually, I'm loving in the fourth series of Fry and Laurie that they are giving Hugh a musical bit every week.

OMG, no. Although the thought makes me chuckle... But if I didn't think Hugh Laurie was hilarious I couldn't like the stuff House says. If anybody else(except maybe Piven, who plays another character who is funny enough to be fucking horrifying on a weekly basis and make us love him anyway) said most of that stuff, I'd turn the channel on him.

I don't normally watch CSI:NY, but I just saw the beginning and I must rant. They notice lines on the murder victim's nails and deduce that he had chemo. The lines are from the cuticle to the tip. Ummm, no. The lines go across the nail and represent the nail that was growing during each chemo dose.

That sounds logical, and the other does not. Now I wonder what (if anything) the vertical lines on nails mean. Does the hivemind know?

There's something screwy with how my cable connects with my Tivo, drat. I am sad about all the Closers I have missed, but help has been called.

I've always thought CSI:NY was the lamest. I'm excluding Miami, which I cannot be paid to watch, for that is how much I can't stand D. Caruso's thespian-ing. I was glad Lt. Dan got a TV gig and the guy who was on Friends is always eye candy. Yeah, too lazy to IMDB. And mem fault. eta: are there just the three? Prime/Las Vegas, Miami, NY? I guess so.

I think you can learn a lot about someone's health that way, but I don't remember specifics.

I don't think there's much of a coin toss between NY and Vegas, really, other than which cast you prefer. Miami just sucks.
