Is anyone else watching ABC Family's "Switched at Birth". I mainlined the whole thing, and do recommend it for the teen soap loving crowd. It also deals with the Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing community, which I am finding an interesting twist. It also somehow got picked up for 22 more episodes. For the same season, but in January. WHich seems nutty to me. Tha had 8 episodes, and then then were picked up for a "back 22". Weird.
Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
There's a poster I pass going home that's advertising a salad with the byline "Best use of peach since pie."
Sorry, Sammy. Deanny wants pie now.
And I found fresh peach pie at the expensive supermarket. Nom.

I had delicious peach pie Saturday night, thanks to Consuela.

Sophia, yes - my 13 y.o. niece had me watch several middle episodes with her, and just last night I watched the final three. On my own, that is, so I guess there's something there -- the kids are pretty engaging and occasionally annoying, which is seems about right. Emmett and the brother are cutie patooties.

I've been watching it. I thought some of it was a bit too teen-angsty, but a lot of it was really well done. And, it's probably the best non-documentary look at issues in the Deaf community that I've seen. There are a ton of things they don't look at, but I thought the arguments over implants and oralism were done really well.

I am a little nervous, because it is Paul Stupin (show runner of Dawson's Creek post Kevin Williamson), but I have to say that I think Emmett might rival Pacey.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Thanks, Stephanie!

Ooh, I haven't seen Switched at Birth. I don't think I knew it was a TV series; for some reason I assumed it was a TV movie when I saw the ads.
I do have to fess up to having seen every single episode of Pretty Little Liars, though.

He is completely adorable.
