And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

This is the one that starts with the deeply weird college thing, which involved a window and, like, someone getting eaten?

The first short in that collection was Wat's Pig, but I think the one you're thinking of is Ident. That one, along with Pib and Pog, were my favorites. (Though Rex the Runt runs a very close third, and the Nick Park ones are kind of in a category of their own.)

[eta: Many of them are online here]

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

Ooh, thanks for the link!

Ident does sound vaguely familiar as a title.

Edit: Pib and Pog made me laugh like a loon. So funny.

On the plus side, 2010 Daniel finally got a new pair of glasses.

It's as though once everyone looked like a science nerd, looking like a science nerd was no longer enough of a statement. So he went with the glasses for a little bit of eclat. A little sizzle. A little... yes, my hypothesis is that Daniel's on Queer Eye for the Grey Guy by 2010.

ETA: On the cast. Carson would have been euthanized already. It would have been only fair to put the poor thing out of his misery.

GG - -good; but not great.

Nip/Tuck -- loved the ending -- couldn't think about how they were going to get out of that but when Eschobar (Escobar?) shot the anesthesiologist, I really wanted Sean to use the scalpal in his hand to go after him. I guess that wouldn't have worked. The other twist -- was was kind of "eh" about.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Last night was the first GG I had watched since the first season, and I wasn't really feeling the love. Rory needed a haircut, but not that one. Sookie = pretty.

But, honestly, when Rory talked to Laundry Room Guy about missing home, all I could think was "How can you MISS home when you've been back 4 times in the past 5 days?!?"

(However, if anyone has S2 or 3 GG tapes that I could borrow to catch up, I would be all kinds of grateful....)

Which seems to be the way S3 is going. This being the first season I've been able to watch in realtime, it's hella disappointing.

It's a remora, dimwit.

Rory and Lorelai are codependent. It's what the show is built on. They'd share a lymph system if they could. And yes, Rory's haircut is unfortunate. It's the exact wrong length for her face shape - last week with a center part she looked like a ridgeless Klingon. The side-part blunts it a bit. I just want to go all Hec on her head and give her a nice pixie cut - she's got the features for it, and it'd cover up some of the forehead.

Isn't this S4 of GG? (I wouldn't know, except I checked TWOP and unless they made up a season's worth of recaps, there have been 2 seasons since the last time I watched.)

Jess and Teppy -- you are me!

I swear, I could not believe that Rory showed up at home post-date. Come on! And then to talk about being away from home -- yeah, stay away for five minutes.

I was also hoping to love it as much as I did in Season 1. . . but it's not happening.

Yes, but it didn't grate -- to me -- in S1. But by the time you get to college? Suffice it to say I'm glad I didn't watch the episode where Rory moved in to the dorm (I read the TWOP recap), because having your Mom stay over? I would have been throwing things at the TV.
