I liked Boomtown. Sadly, it had Jason Gedrick in the cast, so it was sort of a miracle that it got a whole season at all. His series always get cancelled.

Also, Friday night = kiss of death yet again. (Not that Firefly wouldn't have sold its eyeteeth to get those ratings.)

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I liked it too. Sigh. I'll miss McNorris, the twisted little bastard.

(I found myself falling in love, to my shock and horror, with a former New Kid On The Block. It was a thing.)

(But Ray was my favorite. Okay, and the way that Ray and McNorris were the two smartest characters, and both knew it, and loathed each other cordially. I liked the interplay of their different definitions of what a right guy should be.)

I know! It was sort of horrifying to discover that he could act. And well. Husband just finished watching Band of Brothers, with which Graham Yost was involved, and both Wahlberg and...hell, what's his name, Neil something...the guy who plays McNorris are in it, and they're both really good in that too.

damn the costumers are lazy

Word, ita. The fact that they're supposed to be thousands and thousands of years separated from Earth humans makes their cultural similarity (down to the upholstered chairs in the doctor's office!) utterly implausible. Not just lazy costumers, then, but lazy production design overall. Pfeh.

I never saw any Boomtown. Maybe it'll come out on dvd?

One can only hope. The first season really had some great stuff.

I have a plan.

(Grudginly acknowledges the point) My fandom remains intact though.

Art Crawl!!!

I hope it does too -- season 1 was great. What they did to it to make it "popular" messed it up -- so what little we saw of season 2 was less good.

Both Donnie and his brother actually have quite a bit of acting talent. Who could have known back then. I'm very glad my wishes for their early demise never came true back then.
