Hee.

Did anyone else catch Canterbury's Law last night?

Did they blond Aiden Quinn to make us think he isn't gray? Because it looked odd.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I only caught a few minutes sumi, but I thought it looked odd, too. Also, Juliana Margulies looked a little like a robot with weird overly smooth skin.

I forgot it was on, so was in the middle of something. I tivoed the last 45 minutes, haven't watched it yet. I wasn't that interested, but then they described it as House in stilettos. I wonder how they are going to make her likeable.

Also, was the pi/lover played by the guy who played Tommy Gavin's dead cousin Jimmy?

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

I watched it, more or less. It was on in the background, anyway. I was not impressed. Among other things, the dialog is oddly stilted and pretentious. Notably, one lawyer called another a "feckless puppet."

Also, what is it with women attorneys on television wearing suits that appear to be two sizes too small?

On tv that shrunken jacket thing is all the rage. (You see it on What Not to Wear too. )

don't you mean

I think it's the "shrunken jacket" craze. On tiny women, it looks trendy. On big women, it looks like you're trying to wear something you shouldn't.

I am once again out of step with modern fashion. Even in small women, fabric straining against a single button just looks like they're wearing the wrong size. The jacket bunches. The top underneath sticks out funny. I think I notice it most in television attorneys because they're standing up and gesturing. It also emphasizes one of the television differences between men and women that's a constant niggling irritation. Men wear ordinary suits. Women wear inappropriately sexy clothes. Men detectives wear suits while women detectives wear tight jeans and tank tops.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Men detectives wear suits while women detectives wear tight jeans and tank tops.

That drives me nuts about CSI, but ESPECIALLY about Numbers (not that I watch it any more).

I choose to believe that it's character development @@. Although I think that sometimes they deliberately try to make other women look unattractive. Other women are usually crying witnesses or spouses of victims or fugitive, or other law enforcement professionals, who never seem to wear makeup or comb their hair)
